+1 yThe fact that you automatically assume it’s a race issue says more about you than it does about the hypothetical them. Nobody owes anybody anything, and so the question you really need to be asking is what are you bringing to the table to get attention or more from the men you’re interested in? And I don’t really think this is a race issue, it’s more of a gender relations issue which you are not at all alone in. Many if not most young women these days have unrealistic expectations about their sexual market value. Are Black men or Hispanic men or Asian men paying attention to you in greater numbers or greater amounts? Incidence of actual racism in dating are relatively rare, not to be confused with times when someone says or does, or fails to say or do, something you would prefer. Why should any man you prefer or are interested in I’ll give you a chance? Men don’t owe you anything, so what you really need to be asking is what about you is different in a good way such that they would want something to do with you. If you brought something to the table to differentiate yourself from all of the other women that they are paying attention to, you might notice that you start seeing better results. This seems to be a problem with far more women than just you, which gives you the advantage if you make the self improvement change before your competition does.

There may be a couple reasons I can come up with.
They think you’re ghetto. Being raised in an almost exclusively white community I understand what they presume. Where I live if you go to the poverty stricken areas it is almost exclusively black people. Once you get out into different parts of the world, you realize there are different walks of life for every race. If they gave you a chance I’m sure they would realize that. It’s there bad.
You also just might not be very attractive, it may not be that you’re black.
Another reason may be they’re not allowed to bring a lady home of a different race. I know I would not be aloud to and it would be unfair to her to have to deal with the degree of racism that would entail. A lot of our parents and grandparents are extremely and blatantly racist.
The last reason I have is they may see your Ebonics as you showing less intelligence. Which is probably not the case, yet again.
Even though we are in 2022 there is still a lot of racism, some subtle and some not so much. If you are in a almost exclusively white area some people may be still holding onto these convictions.00 Reply

Anonymous(45 Plus)+1 yHere I go. There is no - such - thing - as - race. Not sure why we bought into this race thing so easily. We keep putting up that barrier they handed us as if it belongs when we know it doesn't and we argue against it all the time.
Your question is a case in point. If you see yourself as black and him as white how can you not project that barrier into the relationship. There is a "difference" instead of a commonality laying there in the middle of the floor.
I have loved (not had sex) with several women who had beautiful dark skin. Others told us that mixed relationships don't work. LMAO all relationships are mixes. Unless you marry yourself. Why should tone be of any greater value then other differences to work with and enjoy?
So drop that issue and get to the real meat.10 ReplyBecause most people do not do interracial.
Millions of years of natural selection have hard wired into people of all races a strong preference for their own kind.
That is how it should be.
For example, everything about women of other races is the opposite of what attracts me sexually.
I would encourage you to look closer at men of your own race.
Based upon what I have heard black content creators in the Manosphere say, there is a large number of decent marriage-minded young black men who have given up because the young women want only Tyrone, Pookie and Ray Ray.02 Reply- +1 y
Most people actually don't care about "race". It's only in the USA that they think it's so important.
Asker+1 yIt's TRUE I think most girls are clouded by mainstream stuff and what's popular but I'm not into that kind of stuff
1.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. There are a number of reasons. A big part is what appeals to us. Within my age range about 40% of Asian girls appeal to me but where I live there are almost no Asians. About 25% of white girls appeal to me and about 10% of black women appeal to me. However, if a black girl is that pretty, that means she in the top 10%. I can't attract top 10% girls so I assume she would reject me so I never try.
Another reason is we tend to run in different circles. There are blacks in my city but none in my neighborhood and only a few shop where I usually shop and they almost never go to the clubs I go to. Therefore, there is not many opportunities to interact. When I do meet a black girl, I'm a bit uncomfortable because I'm afraid I may say something that will offend her. Therefore, I am overly cautious and cannot relax.03 Reply
Asker+1 yThanks this makes a lot of sense... question have you tried going to a black club or places where you can meet someone of different ethnicity or does that make you uncomfortable

I have been to a couple of mostly black bars that serve beer and alcohol because I met a black guy that took me there, but they were full of black guys. Maybe there was a couple of black girls but I wouldn't dare approach a black girl in a bar with a dozen black guys for every girl.
Asker+1 yThat's the issue. You have this fear I feel. Get rid of that maybe
+1 yI guess it depends on the individual.
I do like women of other races personally, and even though there's very few Black women in my area, I just know that I do find them attractive and definitely interesting.10 ReplyPrejudices are deeply ingrained in some of us white guys. Not me , but I sure remember the hate filled ignorant talk. Some guys are programmed by looks what a person is, example skin color. The older I get the more I understand color shouldn't matter. I am white and met my white wife in college, ( not a white college).

+1 yIt's just because your skin is darker than theirs, and you look different from what they're used to. It's nothing personal; trust me. It's not racism, either. Those guys just want a person that seems "familiar" to them. Other guys will want something more exotic, and those are the ones that will fall in love with you. Don't give up!
10 Reply 1.4K opinions shared on Dating topic. i have dated darker women. but i have to like or be attracted to you, if you are too ghetto, i have a hard time getting around that. just don’t find that sort of behavior or personality attractive. you might be a very fine person, but can do that sort of personality.
00 Reply417 opinions shared on Dating topic. Well, your post doesn't give much to go on. Are you sure these guys even know you're interested? Guys, particularly White, can be quite dense.
Then it could also have nothing to do with you but rather that they don't even want a relationship. There's a rather new trend among men to stay celibat to avoid drama and problems.00 Reply1.7K opinions shared on Dating topic. If you want more chances make yourself an attractive option. From the guys perspective.

+1 yI actually love black girls and I'm white, but then if you are attracted to black girls they say we fetishize them, so I guess they don't want us to find then attractive really, but then they also complain when we don't... We can't win

@Simplyme355 Oh. no I get it, what I DON'T understand is why you feel the need to beg... You make it sound like you are lesser of a person because of your colour.. I don't believe that for one second.. Only racist idiots do.
The only recommendation I would make to you is, build more self respect because if you don't nobody else will either.

Anonymous(25-29)+1 yWhite guys are afraid of black women
06 Reply
Asker+1 yBecause of why?
Opinion Owner+1 yBecause white guys don't know how to handle women who aren't white. Black girls are known to be sassy and stubborn. The way a white man talks to women (especially during any kind of disagreement) is also bound to get a black woman to freak out on them.
I feel like black women shouldn't take it personally. Just look at what happens when they date other races. Especially if they date latinas, it ends horribly for them.
Asker+1 yI think you should experience it first before you just cross something off for good. Because I'm black and I dont freak out when I argue I'm very calm and collected most times...
Opinion Owner+1 yI've dated more than one Black women and neither of them fit this stereotype. I only know this from being biracial and growing up in certain types of areas where I got to see a lot of different points of view.
Opinion Owner+1 yI agree with you. But at the same time, I think you should take it as a good thing. You'll end up not having to waste your time with weak men who aren't mentally flexible. You'll eventually find a white (or any other kind you want) guy who will look at you in the eyes and see who you are.
And if you're just looking to get laid then what I would do if I were you is take notice of what people who get a lot of attention are doing and find out what your version of that would be.
Asker+1 yNope. Not into just getting laid. I don't know I'll just move on I guess
