Is Interracial Dating the New Trend?




Judging from the mixed couples and children in today’s society, one could naturally assume that racism is finally coming to its peak. On the other hand, all one has to do is look at the jails, public school system, and the media to see that the old institution which built this country and many others isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Real love is a miracle and a blessing wherever you find it! Though one can question the rate at which white women and black men are coming together. It almost seems like the current, fashionable thing to do given how forbidden they both were to one another in the not so distant past. Is it true love or mere preference?
Most people like to think they can recognize prejudice against someone, but what about prejudice for someone? I don’t feel it’s unfair to say that white women are preferred by many different races of men. They are in fact the world’s model female. Don’t many of us women straighten, lengthen, and even dye our hair in hopes of attracting men? Didn’t we all, as little girls, want dolls with long easy-to-comb hair? Don’t our sons all want the pretty girls with that same long, soft hair? Without us even realizing it, many black women very much appreciate some of the physical features of white women thus want them for themselves, and, naturally, so do their men.
Many of the white sisters know they don’t have to work hard to get a black man, and that a black man will work twice as hard to get them. Indeed she can be viewed as a status symbol for black men and even retribution. As the dark man’s woman, children, and masculinity were once taken he could do nothing. Today he is virtually free and seemingly encouraged to now help himself to the smorgasbord of white women set before him in classrooms, locker rooms, and board rooms.
If we look at this from a psychological standpoint, it makes sense. White men have wrongfully, traditionally sexually exploited white women all while creating and maintaining an illusion of their flawless virtue. These women have been paraded as trophies since Muslims invaded and captured Western Europe and sold their women for top dollar in harems. The world’s various dark men have craved these fruit for over 1,400 years!
The blatant, ridiculously racist propaganda film “King Kong” painted the vivid portrait of how far any male species will go to win the ultimate blond prize. The big ape lived for years eating thousands of black female sacrifices but fell in love and died for the one special blond. I’m sure men like Quincy Jones, who actually married three blond women, can relate to this. James Brown, another apparent victim of the King Kong syndrome, hadn’t had a black woman since before 1970 when he married his first Caucasian wife. “I’m black and I’m proud”, he had us all saying. This message was powerful, positive and very much needed, even today. It seems quite possible and just sad that he didn’t believe in these words for himself.
If you disagree with this theory that black men are being persuaded to go white, please explain why it’s been so prevalent among athletes, entertainers, and other prominent black male figures since the Civil Rights era when previously they were hung for just looking at a white woman. When no one killed O.J. Simpson, I became suspicious. Historically, whatever this country did not want to happen has not happened, and whenever the power structure appeared to compromise it has always benefited more than anyone else. Integration is the best example I can offer. Because of it, every year blacks spend a half trillion dollars with white-owned corporations and small businesses. It may or may not become known whether there’s a special interest in black men paring up with white women. Whatever the case may be the fact that a growing number of black men do not prefer black women is disturbing and should be addressed.
