Vanity---Interracial couples on TV commercials
01/15/2016 | me

Posted on 01/15/2016 8:27:45 PM PST by BridgeOutAhead

Full disclosure: I have a daughter-in-law who has a Black father and three grandchildren who have a Black grandfather.

I notice on the few commercials that show an interracial couple it is, without exception, a Black man and a White woman. It is never the reverse of that. I understand that it is much more common for a Black male to marry a White female than the reverse and I don't care who marries who, (as long a they are of two, separate genders), but why is this?

Write to the advertisers and tell them.

I don’t know the answer, but I do know that black women don’t like white women taking what few black men left that haven’t been killed or aren’t in prison.

I’ve been wondering why there is a growing trend to show interracial and gay couples as if it is the norm in society. I have taken some notice of the companies that do this and wonder what market they are trying to reach with such a small audience. Yet, it seems important to them.

Many black men are tired of the crap they get (rightly or wrongly) from sistas, and lots of white girls (especially the fat ones) gravitate towards black men, because of dady issues, and/or because black men will actually go after them and pay them some attention.

...eat a lot of peaches.
We eschewed TV 7 over years ago, I suggest you do the same. The blood pressure drop alone is worth it, but think of all the cash you’d be with holding from the liberal propagandists.

They did a study on cross race emails on dating sites. Not many from white guys to black girls.

Statistically there are zero rapes of black girls by white guys in the U.S. every year.

Plus, they want to promote the browning out of the United States. Have a dependent, easy to manipulate country.

Otherwise, we’d be importing smart, educated Eastern European people here. We’re not.

I once knew a black man who wanted to become a white woman.

So there.

I would ask why there are so many blacks on television when they are only 13% of the US population.

You know why.

Whites tolerate blacks with a white woman, which represents a step up for the black guy. Blacks resent white men with black women and see husband-as-head-of-household white men as placing a black in a subservient position.

I think Black culture doesn’t approve of white men being with black women because of prejudices stemming back from behavior during slavery.

The taboo isn’t as strong the other way around.

Or gays. 20somethings believe gays are 25% of the population. That’s what they see on T.V.

1-2% of population and they are all over the media.

Walmart has a cell phone ad with a black woman and white husband.
I don't mind the racial couples.
The homos, on the other hand, I just don't get.
What CEO of a company knowingly green lights a marketing plan the insults 50-80% of his/her customer base?

Because that is the norm.

Black women traditionally avoided white men on the assumption that they would treat them badly.

The times have changed and you are occasionally see a Black Female/White Male couple.

I’m with you.
Done without TV for most of 10 years.
Don’t have to deal with the weirdness shown.
And don’t know how people find so much time to watch so much crap.
