Back in my single days, I was always open to dating women of other ethnic backgrounds. I don't think that there is anything wrong with so-called interracial marriage. I grew up in Southern Indiana, and remember people staring and pointing at interracial couples when I was young. It struck me as odd that people would do this.

Interestingly, a friend of mine who is a single liberal refuses to date women of other races, despite there being some very attractive, eligible black and Asian women in our social circle. I didn't hesitate to use this against him when he implied that the Tea Party was racist.

Like it or not, Obama has set race relations in the US back thirty years or more.

i believe Thomas Sowell said that in the 1950’s, the marriage rate for blacks was higher than whites, and the unmarried birthrate was lower for blacks than whites.

The Civil rights act destroyed the black family, just as that government study by Moynihan said it would.

There is a more primal reason why black woman don’t date outside their race, they often can’t.

Many black males have a problem with it are not above beating the crap out of a nonblack who would dare date their women.

As people have pointed out here on FR, the nanny state turned black men into sex toys for their women (and has done the same to white men - note our drop in marriages as well). I didn’t get married until I met a girl from the same situation as me (not ethnic, but cultural); if either of us ever went back to our families and said it didn’t work out, they would have no choice but to “honor kill” us - and we’re Christians.

15+ years, several children, and still going ... even if half the family doesn’t speak English. Yankee women lost any standing when we could marry anyone from 100+ countries, right here in NJ. They can keep burning their bras, but nobody’s watching. Don’t worry, we’ll tend to their pet cemeteries for them when they’ve gone the way of the dodo. Adios!

The explanation for why Black women remain unmarried in large numbers, in respect to the population, is that black men won't marry them. The women, for the most part, sleep around and have 2 or 3 baby daddies and no husband. The other type of black woman, such as the one the article is about, are stuck with the BS social status that the other type of black woman has stuck them with. It has nothing to do with whitey and everything to do with the "black culture" as it is in today's world.

I was engaged to a black woman once, her sister had 3 kids and 3 different fathers for them, and that was typical of her acquaintances and other female relatives. I finally broke the engagement because I couldn't take the belligerent attitude of all of her male relatives.

The problem with blacks is their culture as a whole, pure and simple. Some get out of it, most of them don't make it free and don't want to.

With biracial children, she feared that she might be mistaken for the nanny. Many black women share her anxiety about having a biracial child.

"Many"?

Like how many?

Data, or it's BS.

This article is a total whinefest.

Ultimately, for the great American melting pot to continue functioning, interracial marriages need to happen in order to get away from the Democrat designed Balkanization of American society.

American blacks as a group look distinctly different from their African cousins due to the centuries of hybridization that has taken place in America.

For the most part, American whites who think they are English, French, German, etc really aren't and a visit to those nations will show that they aren't. American whites who have been in the U.S. for multiple generations are a hybrid of Europeans with a touch of African and American Indian thrown in.

Article: What Audrey lacks is a husband.

I'll bet Audrey is one of the generation who learned that "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle." Talk about chickens coming home to roost...

oblomov: I didn't hesitate to use this against him when he implied that the Tea Party was racist.

Day-yum! I really admire you for that! Good job.

Without question, the most racist people (conversations) I have encountered have been with African American female co-workers.

I am white, married (DH is also white); have kids; so I was never any threat to my co-workers...but, a light skinned AfAm woman would be unmercifully talked about—just because she was ‘light.’ A white woman found to be dating a Black man, would make the entire group (shades of color didn’t matter at that point) pathological in their anger.

Toss in for good measure the ‘need’ for acrylic nails (but abject hate for the Asian nail techs who they frequented) and it was like the Twilight Zone.

A Nigerian buddy of mine married a US black woman. Man did he have a rough time - coming to work in fits of rage. Ended up in divorce. He then went back to the old country, got a wife, brought her over, and he’s been happy ever since.

As she told me, sitting at a restaurant in the fashionable Dupont Circle neighborhood of the nation's capital, "I'm trying to get to a point where I accept that marriage may never happen for me."

There's her problem, right there. She must be on birth control, her gaydar's jammed.

I went out on one date with a black gal who grew up in Africa. When she told me she had 27 brothers and sisters and that her her father had seven wives I lost interest.

She phone stalked me for seven years.
