Most inter-race couples I see here in Sodom are black men with white women. They are fairly common, and outnumber the obverse easily 10:1.
White man - oriental woman couples out number the obverse by about 5:1.
Just my observations, in Manhattan.

This is new? I saw an episode on this same exact theme on Donahue -- 20 years ago!

"I haven't found any black men trying to take me to the museum," she says. "I wish they would make an effort other than, 'Let's go and have a drink' or 'Let's go to the Red Lobster for all-you-can-eat crab legs on Monday.' " Too funny. I guess I know where I'm going Monday night. I love crab legs.
There is definitely a double standard at work with interracial couples. A black man dates a white women and it doesn't even raise an eyebrow anymore. But if a white man dates a black woman, there is a lot of hostility from black men. Personally, I find black women just as attractive as white women. If I wasn't married, I'd consider a date with someone like Condi Rice in a heartbeat.

He often attends reggae clubs with Bailey where he is the only white person in the room.
I guess Atlanta is different. The one's I've seen are full of white druggies and airheads, maybe a couple of Jamaicans amazed at the scene in the corner. Plus the Jamaicans bathe.

I don't see it in Texas, either. Plenty of white women, black men. None of the other.

One of the nicest "activity partners" I ever had was a black woman.
Like someone posted above: "Bring on the sisters.. Yeah!"

"colorism"
Now that is one ism that I have missed. In an otherwise interesting subject, this one came along and ruined it for me.
The 23-year-old Bailey ....dating Jason Walker, a 22-year-old white man CRADLE ROBBER!!!

I took a black co worker to lunch one time in Montgomery,Al and found out just what black men think. I was ridiculed by a group of black guys and so was she, a fight almost started. People don't hardly blink anymore at the sight of a black man with a white woman. Don't believe me...just try it...ask a black gal to lunch if you are a white guy and you will see curious stares from whites and hateful glares from blacks.

They should call it the Ike Turner Syndrome....after she left Ike, Tina was seen only in the company of white men.

Most inter-race couples I see here in Sodom are black men with white women. They are fairly common, and outnumber the obverse easily 10:1. True. But when you count married couples, it often goes the other way, white men with black women. I suspect it's very similar to the white men and asian women idea - anything to avoid the feminist-nazi, emasculating, crazy white women who are only looking for a sperm and child-support donor.

If black women are having a hard time finding eligible black men, they could try what many loveless white women have done ... marry visa-clutchin' guys from Pakistan and India.

i second that...my wife is filipino. She can't understand american women's hostility toward men...it's just not part of her mindset.
To: balrog666
I am a white man married to a Japanese woman (a real one from Japan, not an 'asian-american'). Racism isn't much of an issue in the states, save for the few good ol' boys who ask me if "it" is sideways.
When we lived in Japan, though, evil stares multiplied in proportion to how far away from the base we were. However, most people were pretty cool about it--like her parents, which was a relief.

Black folks don't like black women going out with white men. The only thing that I can say is that lots of black men go with white women. If black men have a problem with black women, they shouldn't complain when the black women go looking elsewhere.

A very interesting article. I've read similar articles before, but they usually focus on black man/white woman couples.
As an interracial couple, one of our favorite activities is to count other interracial couples we see while we're out shopping. Our record is 8 couples, seen in a single 1 1/2 hour trip through the grocery store. But then, Austin is different from the rest of Texas in this regard, I suspect.
