Do you think the wide spread bias against blacks, when it comes to dating, stems from non-black not fulling seeing black people as human beings?

[Lookingforthetruth]

Dating data shows that all non-black people have a negative response towards black people on dating apps.

A Stanford research paper states that many non-blacks associate blacks with that of monkeys on some subconscious level and don't realize them as fully human beings.

"Crude historical depictions of African Americans as ape-like may have disappeared from mainstream US culture, but research presented in a new paper by psychologists at Stanford, Pennsylvania State University and the University of California-Berkeley reveals that many Americans subconsciously associate blacks with apes. In addition, the findings show that society is more likely to condone violence against black criminal suspects as a result of its broader inability to accept African Americans as fully human, according to the researchers."

Yes

No

Well, it's perfectly natural to see black people as apes, since, you know, they are; you can't really blame people for calling an ape an ape. Calling him (or her) a monkey is another matter, but I know that's a battle I'm not going to win.

As to your broader point: eh, not really- inertia might've carried that for a few decades, but we're LONG past that point by now. Nowadays it's mostly conflation of an ethnicity with a culture (which I can imagine Nigerian immigrants and their children- statistically the single most economically successful demographic in this country- really hate), and then the glorification of the darker aspects of that culture, which is done mostly to divert attention from the political and social institutions that perpetuate them. Distrust leads to fear, which leads to hate, which leads to anger and distrust on the part of black people not given a fair shake by bigoted people and institutions, and the cycle just perpetuates itself.

Also, while this may seem to be a nitpick given the visuals involved, that propaganda poster is declare Germans to be animalistic and inhuman, not blacks.

Maybe the answer is that that non-blacks see being black in America as not just a race but a culture, and it's a culture that is perceived as having widely divergent values on some important variables. A large part of black culture places value on speaking an altered version of American English. A large part of black culture accepts men getting girls pregnant and then ignoring ther responsibilities. A large part of black culture accepts kids dropping out of school wthout completing even a basic education. A large part of black culture does not place importanc on having an intact family with both a mother and a father in the home. And, of course, other cultures have some of these same trends, but not at the extreme as what is seen in black culture. And not all blacks follow these stereotypes, but these stereotypes exist because they are true for a signficant part of the population. And these thiings exist not because of the color of thr skin, but because of their culture.

Thanks, man.

i mean kind of but also not really, it's not that people see black people as non-human but i think it's just wider societal norms and the media plus what your family/friends think, people have certain connotations and when you're from more traditional homes you're likely to go for someone similar

I think this one of yours is over the top 🔝…. At least I have not seen this

Haha!!! I wouldn't worry about "Black" men in dating. I am pretty ugly fat old "Black" dude. I have never had an issue dating. I think the groups with the most serious challenges are Asian-American males and African-American women. We have to stop believing in mythology. If a man is seen as being less masculine, he will face serious challenges in the dating arena.

no it's the opposite. blacks are being seen as more than human beings. they're literally superhuman. they are bigger, stronger, faster, taller, have bigger body parts/assets and they are more resistant to the environment plus they age slower too compared to all other races.

seriously though. whenever a black person procreates with a non-black person 99/100 the baby comes out black. therefore it demonstrates black genes as superior to all other genes.

in the future, we can expect blue eyes and green eyes to die out alongside with blonde hair and ginger hair. skin tone would vary depending on how much time is spent indoors or outdoors but overall the human race will all be dark features and they'll look back at ancient pictures of Chris Hemsworth and Margot Robbie and be completely baffled that such beautiful people ever existed on this planet in the first place.

First we like who we like so there is nothing wrong with that.

Secondly there is a lot of interpretation in the conclusions and, without reading the paper, the data presented doesn't justify the conclusions made. I assume there was more data in the paper.

An interesting thing in the data posted is that black women like black men but black men aren't keen on black women. Generally it seems women of a particular race like their men better than the men like their women.

Interesting.

Having now read the paper it is disturbing that police beatings of black men is more likely to be condoned. That shouldn't be, police beatings of any one should not happen. And there should be more likelihood of capital punishment.

I am not convinced that subliminal flashing of white and black faces has any meaning at all.

You do realize that the propaganda poster with the Ape is depicting the Germans, right? Hence the Kaiser helmet...

[Sixgunsound]

Just because you think these things does not mean other people share your views.

[Keishio]

How an earth would a study know that people are subconsciously associating black people with apes?

[Anonymous]

I wad not aware there was any kind of a bias when it comes to blacks and dating.

[Anonymous]

That isn’t true because white women love black men.

[Pohjolan]

Maybe they are just more likely to be fat?
