Search Results: high school stereotype would you date

I am a black teen girl in high school and I have a dilemma.
In the media you see black girls/women as ghetto and without much class or decency. I, on the contrary, am quite the opposite and so are a lot of black girls.
The problem is that, with the media, a lot of guys don't seem to go for black girls not necessarily because they are racist but because of the bad stereotype that black females carry. I grew up mostly in majority white neighborhoods and when I moved to the city, majority Blacks and Hispanics, I was called an Oreo and a white girl. It seems that if your hair isn't sewed in and you don't speak the language of the ghetto, people thing you are an Oreo or "not really black".
I will not change who I am for anyone, but when guys look at me and only see a stereotype it hurts. I want to be able to be confident without coming across as "aggressive" or "loud" and to date a guy without stares and whispers. Am I the only one?
