Single black women being urged to date outside race
www.washingtonpost.com ^ | February 25, 2010 | DeNeen L. Brown

So many black women are single, she says, because they are stuck in the groove of a one-track song: sitting alone, waiting for that one "good" black man to come along and sweep them off their feet.

Waiting. Talking to girlfriends. Waiting. Going out alone. Waiting. Going to work. Waiting.

Waiting for a "good" black man, with the same education level to marry them.

Waiting. Even when they know the odds are stacked against them.

Single black women with college degrees outnumber single black men with college degrees almost 3 to 1 in major urban areas such as Washington, according to a 2008 population survey by the U.S. Census Bureau. Given those numbers, any economist would advise them to start looking elsewhere.

unlike most freepers I have been immersed in black life for all mine”

I think I know a fair bit about black life too, being black myself.

why should they care...

They are jealous because they think white girls are getting most of the really eligible black men, while they themselves are stuck with some baby daddy, who spends half his life serving jail time. Duh!

Germans being different...they love black women”

It probably has to do with there being much fewer blacks in Germany overall. In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is King and all that.

...I often have to work harder to chat up black girls..”

Black girls in America, especially the educated ones, are in general too busy fighting the race war, still spewing out over slavery carried out by the "white devil", and still hung up about being called “sell outs” by the “bruthers”, if they should date a white guy. If you aske me, it's all pretty silly.

I think they fear ultimate rejection more too and since black men are not exactly commitment prone they have less feelings to hurt.

Let’s be honest.

A small part of black man-white woman coupling has to do with marriage.

It’s new opportunities for some white gals that were fewer before.

At least here anyway.

Sadly, this is often the case even on a university campus.

You know....I can see how it would gal them when the black athlete or black movie star takes blondie

same as Jewish gals don’t cotton to Weinstein with the shiksa

I have been with every kind of woman all over the globe and once married a Christian Arab Brasilian...and had 2 girls with her.

Number 2 is a southern belle

it’s easier to ,marry your own kind which is why that is 99% what folks do worldwide except here where folks can be called racist for resisting that

I don’t care who folks are attracted to but I do prefer people who share my values and customs

who is considered prettier is a more subjective reality but there is no doubt that blonde blue eyed women are favored to some degree by many men from all races

maybe that is exotic to them

black men...Asians...Japanese in particular

my wife is not blonde...just highlighted lol

were I back in the game...being so cracker as I am...I would still prefer the usual...southern Christian white girl or hispanic.....Colombian first...given a choice

that’s just me

If ya think aout it..BW marrying or even just dating WM on a large scale would create an interesting dynamic in the black community...it may be a good thing...black trash with white trash seems to lead to a dead end as far as bettering race relations...sounds stupid but that’s the way i see it.

Went to lunch frequently with a black co-worker when i lived in Montgomery, Alabama...most whites paid little attention...but the brutha’s...now that’s a different story...educated, Christian, no chip on their shoulder black women have a hard time in the relationship game...see it all the time.

Had to laugh at this post on a blog i read...

“Wow. So now that more BW are waking up and seeing for themselves that there is no limit to the kinds and ethnicities of men out here who will love, need and want you, this is what you have to deal with? BMB(black man/boy), you’d better wake up and smell that damned Sanka brewing, because as more and more BW realize that it’s okay to date outside of their ethnicity, there will be more BW like myself, Sara, cw, Halima and others who are not afraid to advocate for even more BW to step outside of their comfort zone and get involved with loving, giving men of other ethnicities. And you can take that to the bank.

I welcome this development. Single, Christian, and conservative black ladies know where to contact me.

No tramp stamp as of yet BUT she has popped out three kids so far. From her description she would be an obama supporter. I love her but despise the lifestyle she has chosen.

In the Caribbean, it goes both ways. Just ask my aunts, uncles and me. All but one of my aunts is married to a white guy, and my current girlfriend’s whiter than a new cotton gym sock dropped in bleach.

I have two young beautiful single conservative black daugters.

One looks a bit like a dark Jolie, according to a friend, the other looks like latifah.

They were raised in white culture in a white state. So they look black, but as most whites say: I have never met a black like you.
