Do Black and White People Flirt the Same Way?

[Anonymous]

This is a question for everyone, not just white & black people. Asian, Hispanic, etc. etc. So how does your race/culture flirt? if someone wanted to date an individual from your culture/race what should they do?

**No we are all the human race comments (we know that).

**No racism, you're bigger than that.

**Anonymity if its easier to comment, I can understand that.

im mexican. and I don't flirt.

but I've observed other mexicans and some have hit on me, and I don't like their approach.

the guys get all weird and try to talk to you. but they act a certain way. like if they think they're cool or something. some get too annoying though. and won't take no for an answer.

what makes me mad about them is that they can't handle rejection. if you ignore them, or don't give in, they insult you. they've done it to me many times. I don't know why they're like that. I'd like to cuss them out when they do that but I'm like, no whatever. they must already feel bad.

and black guys, act kind of the same. I've gotten hit on by them a lot and they also come on pretty strong.

but of course, I don't think everyone of these races act like that. this is just from what I've seen. and I don't believe all mexican or black guys are like this.

those are very good points on cultural ways people flirt, great example!

From experience, I notice black & Hispanic men are a bit more aggressive than other races when they flirt with me. Black & Hispanic men typically shout something like "Hey sexy!" or "Dayuuuum" or "Bonita" as I'm walking down the street. They're also typically the ones who beep their horns at me.

If I'm dancing at a club and I politely reject a black man, they get very upset or try to put me on the spot and try to humiliate me (not all of them but most).

Middle eastern men usually approach me by asking me a random question.

Asian guys stand there and go "Woowwww, very beautiful."

I think that dating patterns vary by location or culture not really race though. I'm of African American descent and where I'm from (NY) people just walk up to the person and start a conversation, the same as white people in NY would do. This may differ in places like Afghanistan where marriages are mostly arranged and you wouldn't approach a woman on the street. There many races scattered around so its logical that we react to our environment and culture, but that has little to do with skin color

very good point! But don't you think there are subcultures within a culture. Say, there is a very different culture in LA vs. NY.

[sarcasticbella]

yes of course

well from what I have seen and done its different but only subtley.

im a white m btw.

ive dated black girls and white girls and Asians but its pretty universal they flirt pretty similar. the only difference was the few black girls I've dated were more agressive with it and when they were in the mood they were in the mood. but white girls can be like that but its a little more rare. Asians are way to easy to read like their flirting is very obvious and easy to tell that she is dtf or just into you.

interesting analysis. thanks!

I don't know...it depends on the person, not the race.

[Asker]

in some cases... but most people are influenced by racial or cultural modes to express themselves...

[Stacyzee]

I notice that guys usually feel more comfortable to make advances towards their own race.

Other races, they may feel more intimated by.

I do not know.

Flirting & Attraction is universal.

[Asker]

to a certain degree... if culture was universal then you'd have an absolute.
