Answer 1

Most white guys dont like curvy women they probably dont have the equipment to handle all that luvin.

Answer 2

Every man (despite color) and woman for that fact, has their own perception of beauty. Just about any person has some aspect of beauty in them. It doesn't just pertain to physical attributes. One can be spiritually beautiful as well. Don't be so quick to judge as "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

Yes, the cultures do have different standards.  There are entire forums/websites/postings dedicated to this type of question.

I like thicker women from any race.

Answer 6

Well, you're right.  And you're wrong.  The only race I've never dated is an Asian man (any takers?  ha!).  I have a stronger record with white males, interestingly enough, than my own race.  

It could be more a social issue than racial, in my opinion.  I for one found several of the ladies on "The Flavor of Love" quite enticing physically.  I primarily followed the dumb show, even "I Love New York" (both seasons) because I loved watching them flail their bodacious bodies around, flouncing their luscious what-nots all over.  But ultimately their personalities and/or lifestyles wouldn't make me wanna take them home to meet my parents.  They're simply "not my type".

I wouldn't expect the more popular version of "white male" (the button-down, credit card carrying, mortgage paying, sensitive, flower-bearing, with the nice car and job) to be interested in creating a life-long commitment with another more popular version of "black female" (hootchie, booty-shaking, weave-wearing, acrylic-nail wearing gangsta street honey).  Though in my experience, that type of white guy would be "attracted" to this type black woman, because it's what's considered the norm for that race.  It's what's in our media, on our TV, in our music videos.  What society presents to us as the "popular version" of races can become hotwired into our aesthetics, our choices, our prejudices.

I mean, I'm a black, glass-wearing bisexual bohemian, book-loving, story-writing nerd. Historically, black men have never really taken to me on sight.  I usually attract white men who are familiar and/or attracted to my "type".  Any black guy I've dated long-term or otherwise, had to get to KNOW me first before being attracted to me.

Personally, I don't find anyone's preference in dating partners a matter of race solely.  It's just how we're hotwired. An ex (white dude) told me that he was into black chicks because of the girls he used to ride the school bus with when he was a kid--he was always fascinated by how bold and "loud" (his word) they were.  A Latina friend of mine says she likes white dudes because they are less controlling.  Who knows how it starts?  Or it could be simply a matter of aesthetics--physically, race is an interesting cornucopia of physical attributes and personality quirks.  I mean, what's not to love about that kind of diversity?  



I don't think men of any race should be demonized for their choices.  Men are visual, so if you want a certain dude to get into your world, you might want to appeal to him through his preferences.  Sometimes, a simple tan won't do.  Sometimes, bleaching your skin tone isn't the answer either.  But all in all, we like what we like, eh?  And you never know, folks have been known to change their minds, and preferences.

Answer 7

I'm cacasian...I totally spelled that wrong, with a black fiance. I love black women. I just think they look better than pale cacasian women, both clothed and not clothed. Most of the women in my area are extremely pale or trying too hard to be black at the tanning salons. I hate that, quite frankly.
