I love the whole "I've been to Africa, therefore..." bullshit. I have no issue with Kim being attracted to black men. People are attracted to whoever they're attracted to. I can't hate anyone for feeling that black men are attractive. Hating on her for that is bullshit, but having been to the continent doesn't validate shit. That's like someone saying they're not a racist because they had a black friend once (when it really wasn't a friend at all...it was more like someone they worked with and might have spoken to a couple of times...HA HA!).

Yeah but her best friend really IS black

In my opinion, the answer to the thread is just a demographic numbers game. Blacks make up 12% of the US population. Ain't many homies going to exclude themselves from 88% of the game. I sure won't. Then when you get into socioeconomics the numbers are more skewed (black poverty rate of 30%) into different black demographic groups with vastly different values and outlooks. There's a big college v. ghetto chasm just as there's big white upper middle-class v. trailer park chasm.

I would imagine if you threw a non-black gamer into Africa, he'd be hitting sistas in numbers that made it appear he prefers black women, when in reality he's just gaming what's in front of him, the best type of woman. Happy MLK Day.

In every culture/society the dominant race always sets the standards, beauty and otherwise.

First, every man has preferences but the reason why there are black men that are biased towards light skinned out white women is because of internalized white supremacy.

Remember we were brought her as human capital so any type of culture that includes a standard of beauty was he raised during that bondage. When you conquer a man's body you also conquer a man's mind. It's easy for other Europeans to discredit it but there's a reason why there is a "white god" effect where there was once European colonialism or imperialism.

You should read the rules again if you want to last more than one month here.

4. No race or political baiting. It's okay to talk about race if that's the topic, but no geo-political discussions on why one race is superior or inferior to another or why an upcoming race war in X country will be bad. Newbies under 250 posts are not allowed to participate in race or political discussions.

SMH!

I'd like to chime in here as well but it seems like a dangerous thread.

You rightly decided it's not worth it.
