Queers in interracial relationships

[mansome]

I think it's sad that this is even a question with anyone... I don't see how anyone can exclude (have a racial preference) someone from a potential relationship before they even meet them just because they are a different race....

I guess I'm an "equal opportunity" perve; I like people and am attracted to quite a variety.

I'd say it's human nature, at least in American society. We are a prejudiced, stereotyping, bigoted people. Some prejudices are less acceptable than others, such as racism - but disliking fat people is just fine.

I've never heard of such a thing before. It may well be regional. I have heard black women express this sentiment however.

I just re read this post, Hooper, and it makes sense to me now- Are you talking about the hair issue? Yes, it's got to be an L.A. thing, this town is notorious for its twisted standards of beauty!

I meant the hair thing and the dark guy thing. I've only ever heard that from Black women. But, now that you mention that you are from SoCal, I can believe anything. black people from California seem very odd to me, what with the gheri curls and all of that.

I wouldn't say that I have a "preference", but all of my past relationships have been with white women. But I'm of mixed ethnicity myself (half black/half white) and I think interracial relationships are a beautiful thing. You get the best of both worlds.

Part of the appeal, I think, for some, is crossing over some residual taboos.

And for those who are strongly visual, the contrast of black and white can be arousing.

Yeah... most of my partners were usually white women/men. .. There's something to be said for seeing my caramel hand across a pale breast or olive cock. . .

My current involvement is Jewish, Irish and Armenian. . .he's got grey eyes and is almost as dark(olive skinned) as I am!

This is really about the degree and color of skin pigmentation... I'm guessing many people can't tell what race a person actually is most cases....

it's a ridiculous premise to start off with... people who would or would not date someone because of the other person's race are pathetic in my book.. fuck this "preference" bullshit....

I'm not saying that you aren't sincere as I don't know you. However, almost everyone publicly expresses this kind of egalitarian sentiment whilst their behavior suggests otherwise. In reality the U.S. is still a very racially polarized country with people going out of their way to live, work, worship and go to school with people mostly like themselves.

I would totally agree with you... and it's quite sad...

hee, the gheri curls! That smell still awakens a twinge of lust in memory of the boys of my teenage years.
Anyway, So Cal is notorious for applying insane standards of beauty . BUt even in Chicago, where you'd think people would be a little more down to earth, my black Girlfriends would reject a guy that was "too dark" because- they didn't want their babies to be too dark.

Visual? here you go, a snippet out of one of my stories;

Tracy waited until he was sure they’d be engaged, before he slipped back into the room. He stood by the door, watching them. That black body, shining with sweat. Pumping her slow. A creamy arm thrown over a black shoulder. What a beautiful sight. And his curly conk falling into her straight red hair. Her voice filling the room like a heater. Calling out his name. –Like she wanted this from the start, maybe she did, maybe we just thought it was our idea– Pulling off his jeans, he advanced noiselessly to kneel at the foot of the bed. Pumping her, Tony. Her cunt wrapped all around his big, fat thing. How she hangs on to him. –Bet you never had it like that before, baby– His own cock ached for release.

Well, I must not have known any girls like these. I was always a little jealous of darker guys, especially if they could pull of the MJ bald head look, because they always seemed to have girlfriends who looked like Lisa Bonet, who at that time was the goddess of my idolatry.

This conversation is still going? Wow! I have been reading and though I do understand mansome's position, I can not honestly say that I have stopped having preferences. The only thing dating someone outside of my ethnic, socio-economic background has done for me, is prove that I shouldn't have. We have far too many differences. The whole point to this thread was to see how other people deal with those differences.

Will be back to check in on this thread, later.

Of course. I can't speak to anyone else's reasons for continuing in this discourse, but this is one of the few threads on Lit that has any cultural significance for yours truly.
