I've had black girlfriends (and white, latina, and Asian girlfriends), and my perspective is that the biggest reason that non-black guys might not date black girls is the culture barrier that often exists.
I'll give you some examples - and of COURSE these examples do not apply to everyone, but at least in the US, they do apply to a lot of people.
Say you grow up in a poor neighborhood, which also tend to be rough neighborhoods. Such places tend to have a lot of self-imposed racial segregation, especially in areas where gangs have a large presence. Many guys wouldn't cross racial barriers in that situation (even though he grew up in the same poor neighborhood) because he doesn't want hassles or violence to happen to someone he developed feelings for.
Or, say, you are both middle-class, but the girl is very black-centric in culture - grew up with mostly black people, mostly only watches black movies and TV shows, listens to only black music, focuses on black problems, etc. It may not seem like it, but that can create a big barrier for a non-black person, and make a relationship difficult.
What I'm saying is that, for some people, it's not that they care about the color of your skin or the kinkiness of your hair or any of that - it's the CULTURE that they have trouble with, because anytime there is a big cultural divide, it can be hard to bridge that gap. You could have a white American guy of German ancestry who might have a huge culture gap with a white girl from Germany - even though they have the same ancestry and look very similar.
Some people are more open to those challenges and are better at bridging the gap than others (on both sides). And for some, it's much more of a struggle.
Now, are there some outright racists? Sure, I'm not going to pretend that there aren't. There are plenty of black racists too. But racism is far from the only reason that people struggle to bridge culture gaps.
Well the conclusion I got here is that guys are more racist than girls, aka closed minded. Not that they're more picky. Not saying that is is true, just closer to the truth that we're more picky, because we're not, most guys will fuck anything that is willing, even goats.
I'm not talking sexually talking dating wise.
Its the same thing.
The male ego ( men often think they look better than they do ) and the fact that men are visually orientated in a stronger sense than the average woman.
Online dating is extremely hard. Every man I chatted to said my looks weren’t what they were looking for. Luckily I am not insecure about my looks.
Are you white?
Yes I am
Some guys are absolutely ridiculous... why are women more level headed?

I've been online for a long time and I've noticed this.
i have seen it with both genders on a very small scale so im not saying it doesn't happen but its not genderspecific and actually if you are looking at recent tinder figures most women only swipe right a few times where men will swipe right on nearly every woman in the area
Because they're desperate for sex! I'm talking about dating
Both are picky and it tends to be women that are more so that's the whole waiting for Prince charming thing wanting a perfect man that has no flaws that's not saying men are not picky but there is no way they are more picky lol
Also after reading to comments it seems to be more a preference issues over being picky which as you are American you will get as in many states it's still frowned on and taboo for interracial dating
Yes, because women are so open to dating Asians. 😂women tend tonbe pickier. If you look at online dating apps you will see men swiping right way more than women.
I think your premise is entirely untrue.
Large surveys I've seen on this suggest that as a group, women are more likely than men to only want to date within their race.
This is likely due to women in a lot of communities feeling pressured to maintain a family that continues the community.
Men are more likely to be willing to date anyone they think is 'hot'.
I've found both are picky actually, i tend to notice it more from person to person rather than just in the category of man and woman
I think men are more picky, though.
Depends, I've met very picky men and very picky women so id say its a pretty even split
Because a relationship with the wrong woman can ruin a man's reputation, career and personal life forever (false allegations)
At least you admit men are more picky, thank you.
Wait for it...
Why are questions with an incorrect premise, questions with an incorrect premise?
Some women don't like black men people need to stop generalising
I've spoken to you and you don't even like black women so you need to stop
Most black women I don't like sometimes I see one that I'm attracted to so yeah I do
I'm not so sure one is pickier than the other
Says who?
I don’t care what color a woman is on the outside. They are all pink on the inside.
Pink is my favorite color.
iam far from picky
I wouldn't care about race but I've gave up on the dating seen
I've never seen this thing before.
You must be new
I had an account before.
Guys are more visual but I will go out with different races if I’m attracted to them
Pretty sure it is the other way around tbh. Lets start with girls wanting a guy with a height at least 6" and up
Must have a car, probably own house, etc etc etc
I don't see that as often as guys saying they wouldn't date a black woman
Okay, so now you're talking something completely different. This thing with some men not wanting black women is all preference based.
No it's pickiness
So really they're not more picky, they're more picky about race, not in general.
Race relates to appearance and culture and guys tend to want attractive and familiar women. It's just their taste. Lots of girls don't like Asian guys, these things happen.
Samething
No, it's not. Your question header should specify what you believe they're being picky about.
