What did black people not like attention?

[Anonymous]

Passed by a beautiful black woman today in the store when she realized I was checking her out she got kind of sheepish about me. Is that normal for a black woman

A lot of girls don’t like being checked out by random guys. Doesn’t matter what race they are.

Do you think it's because black women don't like White guys paying attention to them

[WhitneySnow]

No. A lot of black girls actually like white guys. But a lot of girls regardless of race don’t like being checked out by random guys.

Not at all. Women generally don't like things they think are creepy. That can seem like an inconsistency when women like attention from some men or not others. Usually the people who think of that as inconsistent are doing something women find creepy without realizing it. Or they know it's creepy but they try to justify it in their minds.

Do you think any woman who knew you asked this question would ever consider being with you? They probably wouldn't. That ought to tell you something.

A lot of white guys seem to think black women should be grateful for any attention white men give them, no matter how blatantly sexual or creepy. Probably a class thing but could just be racism.

It's normal for women of every race to not react well to creepy behavior.

Where do you draw the line between "checking put" and "creepy."

@Graptemys79 Black girls should speak for themselves, but for my friends, creepy is overly aggressive and emphasizing one aspect of the racial and sexual element. Girls draw the line subjectively and not necessarily consistently. A lot has to do with messages we send and our belief they are understood or should be. It's the guy not getting the message and pushing that gets creepy. Still, we can draw the line differently depending on first impressions or surface things. Like, something I would find really creepy with most guys would not bother me at all if it was a big dick Black, for example. I might even find it attractive. For Black girls, it seems like they feel it's creepy if there is an overemphasis on the sexualizing racial element. That kind of inconsistent happens with individual people and with groups. Like, big dick Blacks really like that I place such value in the fact they have a big dick. They probably would like it a lot less if I were 50 and a fat slob.

It is normal for any woman.
