White Men and Black Women Relationships- An Encore Presentation?

Funny how black women in the new millenium with their Prada shoes, weaved hair and Gucci-carrying- bag- selves all of a sudden want to date white guys because there are so many black guys with white women. So sistas you wanna experiment, huh? I don't have a personal problem with this issue as long as the black women who are doing the interracial dating are sincere and not looking to "even the score" of the black man and white woman dating mystique.

I have had my own thing for white men back way before Mark Wahlberg, Robin Thicke and Channing Tatum were popular. They are fine. But here's the deal. It ain't like you're not getting a man- they are similar, you know. Just because he may take you to fancier restaurants than brothers, or buy you a few more baubles than the brothers, or not tip out on the relationship (so soon) or compliment you daily and tell you what a queen or goddess you are, just because he runs your bath water and sprinkles rose petals in the water in anticipation of your arrival, doesn't forget anniversaries, special occasions, talks about politics, government, world peace, world hunger and Haiti relief - doesn't mean he loves you. Then there's that all-too-important part of the relationship - S-E-X. True, there is no finer specimen on the planet, when it comes to endowment - the black male is simply the epitome of a superior sexual being - hot, muscular, strong, ( I digress) but after the interlude - he's already focused on something (or someone) else). While I do not want to portray my brothers as dogs, many of the relationships I have had with black men have been similar to this description. That white man, on the other hand, will continue to caress you throughout the day in remembrance of your lovemaking - teasing you and telling you how wonderful you feel and all of it, just because you're you. You can't beat that ladies. I don't blame you for trying.

However, if you are in an interracial relationship with a white man, do so because you love his character and you appreciate and respect him for who he is, not what he can do for you. I guess it is really the flip side of what some black women who have "gone to the other side" feel so frustrated about, that the black man only wants sex, doesn't want you for you and will cheat in a heartbeat, not to mention the fact that a lot of sistas out there have their own house, car, bank account, and a good job. Don't date a white man because he is something different because there are plenty of "different" black men around. Don't do it because you're trying to even the score of black men dating white women and "you just want to know how it feels to go around with a white man who will pay for everything." That is game playing at its finest. And someone will definitely get hurt. Life is too short - do the real you.
