I feel genuinely sorry for black women, hopefully this trend is reversed because I do not find it funny. I've had many black men (inlcuding Nigerians) tell me that black women are not as attractive as white women but oh well.

same sentiments here. Its a trend that is not likely to go away soon. Black women seem to be at the recieving end of society, being female and black at the same time. Every decent black man around is more likely to be with a white woman than a black one.

Some of the black men who will rather date white women than black women also do it because the white women make them feel better about themselves somehow. They somehow believe that the white woman appreciates them and what they bring more than the average black woman will. I do not understand it because most of these men go for white women on the low end of the beauty scale if you know what I mean.

Butt the part about the lower end of the scale is so true. . . either facially or physically or both in many cases. . .Most black women carry their weight well-well but I have yet to see a white woman do the same. . .

I most time think that the case of black men that marry white women could be well likened to that of the prodigal son.
As the white woman is deemed to be very expensive. But at a second look at it I have come to notice that a white woman could express her feelings quite frankly and openly, which is wat could make a disciplined man full of respect for her, and knwoing what her issues are then looks for ways to address them, unlike the black woman that tries to keep everything inside sometimes in the name of pleasing the man. Honestly av come across stunning black women, and beautiful white women, but the memory of the black ones I met lasts longer. Even though am sure id marrry any woman from any race as long as she has got (like we say in naija good moderate back and front.) that matters, and very intelligent and humble that would make a good wife anyday. Lets not mention the last one. Guys u know now. grin

Not altogether true, but if it makes black women happy, they can keep up the stereotype.

Really? I think white women do a better job with their weight. its saddening to see so many obese black women, the diff may be that most black women pretend to carry their weight well until they trap a hapless man into marriage and then . . .
Re: Marriage Squeeze: Is This Only An African American Woman's Problem? by RedLips3(f): 3:17pm On May 06, 2007
Lol David, it's true 80% of the time. Unless the black male is rich and famous, most of the time you see them with some fugly looking white bumpkins, ugh. Especially the Nigerian guys in London and the states, face wowo past wowo. when it's not wowo they are morbidly obese.

Ridiculous really and I'm definitely NOT against interracial relationships as I was in one for over 2 years, but it's like if you're going to date outside your race, can you please go for the prized crop and not weeds. Gosh.

as for carrying weight well, I think she means a black obese woman looks better than a white obese woman which is true. They get spider veins and their strech marks and stuff are very visible as opposed to black women.

Re: Marriage Squeeze: Is This Only An African American Woman's Problem? by neelsel(f): 8:20pm On May 06, 2007
Once again my heart bleeds for US black women.  Enough is Enough and I strongly believe it's high time BLACK WOMEN really KICK these triffling "brothers" to the curb.

So is it because we would not be at your beckon call, or because we stand up to your idiosyncrasies, and do not stand your bullshit, why we are considered LESS than your so-called slim pretty white chics?

Honestly I have GIVEN UP on black men, and NO NO I am not into white guys either( would rather date another woman before I tread those paths).  Too long have black women been subjected and degraded by the same men who cry foul when we decide not to be bothered with their sorry asses.

I have seen them (black men) after these white girls have taken them for a ride, come crawling back to us as if we can perform miracles.  The truth is BLACK MEN, the majority of these white girls would NEVER take you home to meet their parents.  And if they do, you MUST therefore have proven yourself to be an ASSET, rather than a liability.  You must have had accomplished enough to convinced their parents that you are NOT just another "black free loader" looking for an "easy" way out.

Thank God I have choosen my toys to get my freaky freak on, in so doing, my toy and I see no colour thus the issue of race is not necessary.

My prayers for these black men, whom by the way are nothing but intimacy gadgets to these white girls, would wake up and smell the coffee before it is too late.  Yes, I reiterate, The ONLY use white women have for BLACK men is SEX, I have worked, schooled and befriended many,  They drool at the mere fact that your "tool" can take them to heights that their counterparts aren't able to achieve, but when the sex is done they have No USE for your blackasses,

I am done, and I have NO apologies,
Re: Marriage Squeeze: Is This Only An African American Woman's Problem? by AmerOmoge(f): 8:31pm On May 06, 2007
@ tattletale I love you girl, make no apologies cause none are needed, and as soon as I finish sending you this I will start a new thread about a woman's alternatives to black men who seek white women.  I LMAO about the toys, because withem at least you know then end result, bliss and satisfaction jare!

Me, spoilt, and babyosisi could have used your spirit early in this thread! grin grin

i'm not bothered dear, i'm not the one having fever over marriage matters. Enjoy yourself with your toys. It's good that when posts don't agree with your point of view you can refer to them as "rants". Only God knows what we should call the lengthy whactamacallit you posted earlier. Talk about kicking black men to the "curb". Is anyone bothered?

Dear black men who seek black wives are finding them aplenty. Sometimes the black women who shout the loudest are the ones who threw away opportunities that came there way earlier because the fellow did not look like P.Diddy, or his pad did not measure up to that of Micheal Jordan.
Met a few black ladies and there attitude alone is enough to put you in a cold shower forever. It's when they are 32 and without a husband that you start seeing long posts about kicking men to the curb. If black men are not available please find men of other colors!
Re: Marriage Squeeze: Is This Only An African American Woman's Problem? by Nobody: 9:36pm On May 06, 2007
Why the sudden surge in the "white women only want you for sex" excuses? We all know its not 100% true but at least we must find something bad to say shouldnt we?
Anybody reading this thread would have come up with 1001 reasons why a black man must not marry a white woman, either;
a. they are too fat and ugly
b. they only want you for sex
c. black women are available - the question is where? I have been here 2 yrs, unless ii go manufacture a Nigerian girl there is none anywhere!

When you find them at all they behave as if the world is at there feet.

No one is asking you for sympathy or for long ass drawn out sermons, Reading through your posts and they have ALL been disrespectful and degrading toward black women.

So you love white women? who cares? We are ALL entitled to our own choices, and there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with that.
But sometimes if we are know what is about to come out of our mouths aren't pleasant, I suggest we keep our traps shut, Silence is golden!!!!

Contiune to "rant" and "rage" and sing your praises Davidylan, remember Rome was NOT built in ONE day!!

PS, 30-40 yrs are the ideal period for marriage, at least by then you would have accomplished everything you need, thus not being labelled as a non-achiever,

Have fun with your white girls, I hope you have already set up your "Botox Fund trust"" cheesy
