Kind of an ironic story here. When I was in college in the late 70's, I dated a lovely black woman for a while. the ONLY people that gave us any grief, including parents, were black males. The truly ironic thing was that several of the guys that gave us grief had white gf's. Was this simple imaturity or was I missing something deeper?

You were missing something shallower, but racism grows on both sides of the fence. I will defer to any black folk that want to explain to you the Diana Ross syndrome of some black males.

Like I said in my previous post my family and I never encountered much in the way of racial prejudice but when we did it usually came from other Asians. I always found that interesting.

Hill,

truth be told your experience is more common than you might imagine. you describe her as lovely which i'll interpret as polished. which some persons of color would find unsettling. this is a nice way of saying that a girl such as this should not be attached to your arm. the reverse racism that was mentioned reflects that while she really wouldn't be their cup of tea so to speak, they'd take pride in showing her off anyway. she makes them look better. on the other hand, seeing you with an asset of that nature only sparked envy. in their opinion you're not worthy.

In my opinion dating within or outside your race is a preference. Race, color, whatever doesn't really mean much to me; I look for compatibility. I've had people make negative comments regarding my relationship, but I'm rather "vocal" so they tend to button their lips rather quickly.

And are race-based dating limitations truly just preferences, or are they a smaller reflection of society's racist views in general?

Is dating strictly within your race the same as strictly dating outside your race or within another race? Why or why not? [/color]

I'll tell you what I mean. When I was single I got the non black guys, that all they focused on was my race. They had it in their nik, and it was about every other word in their emails, even when I asked politely that they not do that. It's not a compliment. I have made the statement time and time again you choose clothes by color, not your partner.

Then I get the black men, that think just because we are the same color that I "owe" it to them to date them. The too mention race in about every other sentence. Again, I'm not impressed. They are rude and don't even remotely try to be nice, because I "have" to talk to them remember? I had some tell me that I should be greatful that he is speaking to me, he could be talking to a white woman....knock yourself out babe. So they went in the not interested bin just like the guys mentioned above.

Oh my goodness!! I can absolutely relate!! Honestly, I never dealt with these issues until I started exploring my submissive side. I was simply amazed.

Both your paragraphs are spot on. When approached by someone outside my race who had a screen name that implied objectification, I quickly pointed them in another direction as that's not my kink. I also dealt with those who "assumed" I was into race play. Again, not my kink.

The second paragraph is also very familiar. On numerous occasions, it was stated that there are so few black submissives. It was implied that I should take up the slack. Um, yeah....no. I will always choose the best relationship for me, regardless of....anything.

I'll admit that I only date within my race.... the human race. Skin color is not important. If a woman looks like a man or resembles a barnyard animal, she's off my list. If she's smokin hot and she happens to have a different skin color... HURRAY for diversity!

I rememeber getting a great deal of grief years ago when I was dating a beautiful kindergarten teacher who happened to be of African descent. I still think of her fondly. She was such a perfect lady in public but when the door closed ... OMFG!!!!!!!!!!

This is very true. I was recently approached by a black woman who told me it was my fault that black women could not find a decent hard working black man. I was baffled.

Unfortunately it is a growing trend among middle class black American males to not date middle class black American females.

/www.atlasbooks.com/marktplc/02701.htm

I highly doubt that book is back by sound statistical evident (although statistics and be skewed to show what you want one to believe) and is more one persons opinion based on a few high profile examples.

A general observation:

middle class are generally not considered, nor portrayed as; high profile.
