Why are so many White Women marrying Black Men?



Recommended Posts

I think what set me off was the title of the thread. "Why are so many white women marrying black men?" I saw red. My cousin is married to a man from the West Indies. They have been happily married for 13 years and have a 12 year old son.

Nobody ever bloody asks " Why are so many white women marrying white men?":rolleyes:

A little tact would not go astray.

Yes, its not the subject matter that made me mad, its the tone of the posts. I suspect a troll as well.

I want to thank you all for your being insode of my head. Even as I tried to spark some debates--there are people now saying i am sooo horny--with what??

Questions like "Why are so many white women marrying black men"? won't spark a debate because the proposed topic isn't controversial - it's racist.

Why are so many creepy old men buying themselves trophy wives? Because they can, I suppose.

Besides, I don't know that "so many" white women really ARE marrying black men. Do you have some stats you'd like to share? Is the number higher than black women who marry white men? Does anyone even keep track of stuff like that? This is, after all, the 21st century.

I have lived my entire life in the South and I do remember a time when interracial marriage was actually illegal, but that ship sailed a LONG time ago.

In 1967 the United States Supreme Court ruled that all bans on interracial marriage were unconstitutional. Since then, it has steadily become a non-issue and now - 40 years later - we are raising children and grandchildren who are truly color blind. And that's a good thing.

Marry whomever you like. Just be sure you like the person you marry and treat him/her accordingly.

People should marry who they love; white, black, men, women, whoever... as long as the two are consenting adults.

With regard specifically to people of different races marrying, one actual possible benefit that is rarely pointed out that is interesting is that the further away two parents are in the gene pool, the healthier the children tend to be, and, in my personal opinion, the more physically attractive too. A new book details this (it's called "hybrid vigor" in the science world). The book is called "Breeding Between the Lines: Why Interracial People are Healthier and More Attractive" by Aron Ziv.

On an anecdotal note, all of the mixed race people I know are absolutely gorgeous. I know it's not scientific, it's just my personal observation.

Maybe it's time to start a thread called "Why is Lee4Love starting so many inane and intentionally controversial-sounding threads? Does he really think this way? Or is he so starved for attention in real life that he has to try to push strangers' buttons on an online forum that was designed to help people with the LapBand?".

Yeah, that's right. Remember what this site was designed for? That's not to say that this isn't the "Rants and Raves" section and you are certainly entitled to post whatever you want here. Far be it from me to question your right to the first ammendment. But the point is that you don't really have one. I think you are just posting this shit to piss people off. Unfortunately for you, most of us on this site are:

1. women, and

2. intelligent

You aren't pissing us off because we can see through your idiocy.

Get a life.

<p>Ah, Lucy, Tommy O didnt start it. I think you mean Lee4love1. But I agree with you. This Lee character is either incredibly, stupendously ignorant or he's deliberately trying to piss people off. One post I could handle, in fact I replied politely. But when 6 or 7 more appeared, I thought OK this guy is either a mysogynistic racist or he's trying to start a fight. So I had a bit of fun. </p> <p> </p> <p>TommyO, bless him, just proved my theory that the majority of men on this board are intelligent, educated, rational guys and wouldnt relate any better to this sexist bigoted rubbish than the women have.</p>

<p>Tommy may be intelligent--but you women played right into my hands. Sorry you had so much fun--but it's going down in America and there is nothing you can do about it. I see it even in the country area's of Mississippi--White Women--Black Men. Oh I have to be prejudice all of a sudden Just because I wanted to get your imput? Come on--it's a fact--a now reality of life. So what if my mind wonders and get to you. So--what if you're pissed off. --Ph Boo Hoo---you can now cry me a river and if you want to--cry me an Ocena. Yes I brought you a controversal subjects to the forefront--I guess in your little lives---you always go to sleep and wake up and as long as it doesn't effect you--you're cool. <But I was going to give you a reason also why the Black Men are being drawn to the White Women. Nothing prejudice on my part either. We are now going to see the new brown nation starting to emerge. The Black Man is starting to understand there is more of a choice when it comes to a mate and procreation. We are seeing that our choices are no longer limited and in many cases---not limited to American Women. But as I see--there is a lot of Pissed off people out here. So don't blame the messnger--blame it on what your beleifs have been for 10, 20, 30 ad sometimes 40 or 50 years. Stop making all of the excuses and get real. Again--call me a name, 5 names and so on. But I bet you always thought it was you Women who ran things--sorry--mistake--it's not:faint:

Lee,

Could you use a spell checker or just proof read? FFS, it's not that hard.

But clearly communicating doesn't seem to be a priority.

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

      3. Doughgurl

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
