If that's true, why are the large majority of black-white dating/marriages between black males and white females? Why do black females get upset (and rightfully so, imho) over this huge discrepancy?
My experience and observation from the 60's and 70's when I was single are several:
- In the civil rights movement, especially SNCC, the White guys participated mostly because they thought the girls were more liberated and an easier lay with no committment. Furthermore, most White guys thought Black girls in the movement were an easier lay than White girls. I knew several White guys with Black gals where there was a real love and committment. But they were the exception.
- Black gals historically have been taken for granted as easy. Most seem to sense that history and resent it. Certainly their experience in the civil rights movement, and in college, confirmed that for many of them.
- When I was single female friends tried to hook me up with a friend/relative of another background. It was much less often a guy tried to hook me up with anyone, regardless of race.
- I experienced equal rejection from the person who was the object of the hookup, regardless of race or ethnicity.
- Most people are lazy. It is easier if they can deal in labels. Laziness is a societal force against judging people as individuals rather than being in a labeled group. This is as true of non-racial labels as it is of racial labels.
