I’m Tired of Watching Brown Men Fall in Love With White Women Onscreen
Jezebel ^ | July 6, 2017 | Aditi Natasha Kini

The Big Sick has been roundly lauded in the press lately, including here at Jezebel, and not without good reason: it’s a funny, heartwarming love story based on the true-life experiences of cowriters/married couple Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon. But as much as I liked it—and I did—I also found myself exhausted, yet again, by the onscreen depiction of a brown man wanting to date a white woman, while brown women are portrayed alternately as caricatures, stereotypes, inconsequential, and/or the butts of a joke.

Yeah, but when ABF* Syndrome runs rampant - the dating choice are poor. Go for the white women.

I'm actually sick of it too...

I say that as a grandmother to biracial children...

too many times people cross the racial divide for the wrong reasons...

crossing the racial lines for genuine love and marriage, now that's okay..

Well, maybe if you weren’t such a jerk, you could get dates.

I’m sick of leftists’ obsession over imagined hate in their quest to divide the races even further.

ABF implies a female, dunno if there is one for angry black transvestite.

The Left’s obsession with race is exhausting.

Now she’s done it.

It’s all good when the point is to remove white heterosexual males from advertisements but now that it influences behavior in the black community where black women find themselves with dwindling options for a husband, it’s serious.

I’ve also heard from angry black women on the radio about gay or bi blavk men.

White Liberal Women are being sent to the Brown Men is a plot to emasculate and render them into eunuchs. They’ve run out of white men that can stomach them.

I’ll bet she is following the Charles Payne story closely and getting even more indignant.
