Is it a popular sterotype to asssume white women are easy?

Question

I'm just wondering, or is it just non-white Eastern cultures that assume this (when they watch the Western media, they assume that most white women behave like Jenna Jameson and Paris Hilton)? I've always got into fights with other non-whites, because some of the most sexually conservative people I've met are white (both men and women). Growing up in Alabama, they're a dime in a dozen. Some people don't believe me though. I seem to be alone in my opinion. I've been told I'm naive for not viewing white people as s*x freaks.

Growing up, my mom also warned me to stay away from white men b/c she thinks they're too "sexually aggressive," which is far from the truth in my experience. She also told me "Don't have s*x like those white girls do," when I know adult white women that don't want to have s*x until they're married.

Do you agree with this stereotype and why do you feel this way?

White women, how do you feel if people from Eastern cultures perceive you to be this way?

Answer 1

no offense, but this is just a load of bigoted ignorance - all dressed up with no place to go.

Answer 2

Eastern people are big fat hypocrites who dont mind gang raping innocent women, (and not getting in trouble for it), and do not mind sodomizing young men (as is popular among bedouins). The sexually suppressed are always much more dangerous to the general public, so say what you will about western white women, at least we live in a society that respects a persons right to sexuality and does not automatically label all sexually active females as women who are begging to be raped!

Answer 3

Sexually agressive is a bit harsh, maybe more sexually liberated?

edit: whoa I have to say that is a little bigoted.. sure a few are potential and actual rapists but she should know that there are at least some men who would never rape someone even if they had the opportunity and knew they could get away with it.

Answer 4

Yes it is a popular stereotype, especially now it's like you see those girl gone wild commercials everywhere. And in the movies, not to mention a lot of my friends telling me that their man cheated on them with a white woman they had just met.

But there are easy women of all races, some just know how to hide it better than others.

Answer 5

Yes, it is a stereotype and unfortunately it is not just in eastern Europe.

Personally, I couldn't care less about how people view me unless it actually affects me and others directly ~ for example sexism has affcted me directly in being turnede away from jobs, etc, so I do care.

This stereotype does affect people directly, although to date I have not felt the impact of it because I have not gone anywhere where this attitude is rampant.

However, I know people ~ women particularly ~ who have travelled and worked in middle eastern countries where this stereotype is very common, and have been harrassed and treated with aggression and in a derogatory way as a result of no more than having fair hair or light eyes.

Men also suffer as a result of this stereotype, because they are treated derogatorily if they are travelling with a 'suspect' woman, and in some cases are pushed to 'defend' the woman, who may be a companion, work colelague, spouse or simply a fellow tourist.

Many of the people who behave in this way do not see more positive images of 'white' women, and assume what they see in porno films and magazines to be the whole truth, whereas it is, of course, a distortion and, at best, only a partial reflection of a much greater whole.

This is the flip side of other common stereotypes about women ~ the ones that say *all* women from eastern europe are mail order brides, and *all* women from the middle east are repressed zombies, and that *all* women from asia are compliant s*x slaves.

This type of thing is dangerous because people believe it, and when people they meet don't conform to the stereotype, the consequences can be dire ~ emotionally and physically.

Best wishes :-)

Answer 6

No I don't agree with the stereotype, because I've seen easy and loose women of all ages, races, and even religions. People will do what they want to do regardless of the box we feel they fit in. It has nothing to do with race, but everything to do with the individual.

Answer 7

I would never want to be judged by the women in the media and would hope people are smart enough to realize it is just that...the media.  Their job is to sell c**p and as we all know "s*x sells".  I think there is a much bigger (an more truthful) stereotype of European women being more open to s*x and sexuality.  Americans are notorious for being "prudish".

Answer 8

im sure its easy to think that ..some white women are easy, but others arent...you dont really hear about conservative woman cuz s*x isnt the only aspect of their life....of course s*x will be exploited more,s*x sells....sounds like your mom had some issues...and i dont care how Eastern cultures see me.

Answer 9

Yes, actually it is a biased stereotype that white women are loose.  I wouldn't call it sexually aggressive.  Loose is a more fitting term.  

It's a stereotype and has no basis in fact.  Not all white woman are loose.  Not all white women are prudes.  Some are, some aren't.

Answer 10

Why do you have to pay attention to labels?,and sterotypes,when most of the time it isn't true,to be honest as a black women,In my Neighbourhood the white women dress less S****y,and aren't as easy as the black women,but that Is not always true,I think you need to let this go.

Answer 11

I agree with most all sterotypes- as do most people.

Answer 12

I'm sure you have heard the many stereotypes that western cultures have about eastern ones.  You know they arnt always correct.  Perhaps you should remind some of these people you know of the harmful stero types against them.
