>White women's opinion of black women & a brother's response
>Please take a moment and read this. Pretty Deep! Thumbs up
>to this black man. It seems that an article was written to
>Sister 2 Sister magazine by a
>Caucasian woman who requested a response from black men. I'm
>so glad she got
>What she asked for (and more)!!!

>Dear Jamie:
>I'm sorry but I would like to challenge some of your Black
>male readers.
>
>I am a White female who is engaged to a Black
>male-good-looking, educated
>and loving. I just don't understand a lot of Black female's
>attitudes about
>our relationship.
>My man decided he wanted me because the pickings amongst
>Black women were
>slim to none. As he said they were either too fat, too loud,
>too mean, too
>argumentative, too needy, too materialistic or carrying too
>much excess baggage.
>Before I became engaged, whenever I went out I was
>constantly approached by
>Black men, willing to wine and dine me and give me the
>world. If Black women
>are so up in arms about us being with their men, why don't
>they look at themselves and make some changes.
>I am tired of the dirty looks I get and snide remarks when
>we're out in public. I would like to hear from some Black
>men about why we are so appealing and coveted by them.
>Bryant Gumbel just left his wife of 26 years for one of us
>Charles Barkley,
>Scottie Pippen, the model Tyson Beckford, Montell Williams,
>Quincy Jones,
>James Earl Jones, Harry Belafonte, Sydney Poitier, Kofi Anan
>, Cuba Gooding
>Jr., Don Cornelius, Berry Gordy, Billy Blanks, Larry
>Fishbu rne, Wesley Snipes...
>I could go on and on. But, right now, I'm a little angry and
>that is why I
>wrote this so hurriedly. Don't be mad with us White women
>because so many of
>your men want us. Get your acts together and learn from us
>and we may lead
>you to treat your men better. If I'm wrong, Black men, let
>me know. Disgusted White Girl, Somewhere in VA

>RESPONSE
>Dear Jamie:
>I would like to respond to the letter written by A Disgusted
>White Girl.
>
>Let me start by saying that I am a 28-year old black man. I
>graduated from
>one of the most prestigious universities in Atlanta, Georgia
>with a Bachelor
>of Arts Degree in Business Management. I have a good job at
>a major corporation and have recently purchased a house. So,
>I consider myself to be
>among the ranks of successful black men.
>I will not use my precious time to slander white people. I
>just want to set
>the record straight of why black men date white women. Back
>in the day, one
>of the biggest reasons why black men dated white women was
>because they were
>considered easy.
>The black girls in my neighborhood were raised in the
>church. They were very
>strict about when they lost their virginity and who they
>lost it to. Because
>of our impatience to wait, brothers would look for someone
>who would give it
>up easy without too much hassle. So, they turned to the
>white girls. Nowadays, in my opinion, a lot of brothers
>date white women because they are
>docile and easy to control. A lot of black men, because of
>insecurities, fears, and overall weaknesses, have become
>intimidated by the strength of
>our black women. We are afraid that our woman will be more
>successful than
>us, make more money than us, drive nicer cars and own bigger
>houses. Because
>of this fear, many black men look for a more docile woman.
>Someone we can
>control.
>I have talked to numerous black men and they continuously
>comment on how easy it is to control and walk over their
>white women. I just want to set
>the record straight. I want A Disgusted White Girl to know
>that not all successful black men date white women.
>Brothers like Ahmad Rashad, Denzel Washington, Michael
>Jordan, Morris Chestnut, Will Smith, Blair Underwood,
>Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, Samuel L.
>Jackson, and Chris Rock all married strong black women And,
>to flip the script, there are numerous white men, in and out
>of the spot light, who openly or secretly desire black women
>over white women. Ted Danson, Robert
>DeNiro, and David Bowie to name a few.
>I just don't want a disgusted white girl to be misinformed
>Stop thinki ng that because you are white that you are some
>type of goddess. Remember, when
>black Egyptian Queens like Hatsepshut and Nitorcris were
>ruling Dynasties
>and armies of men in Egypt, you were over in the caves of
>Europe eating raw
>meat and beating each other over the head with clubs. Read
>your history!
>
>It was the black woman that taught you how to cook and
>season your food. It
>was the black woman that taught you how to raise your
>children. It was black
>women who were breast feeding and raising your babies during
>slavery. It is the black woman that had to endure
>watching their fathers, husbands,
>and children beaten, killed, and thrown in jail. Black women
>were born with
>two strikes against them: being black and being a woman. And
>, through all
>this, Still They Rise!
>It is because of the black women's strength, elegance, power
>, love and beauty that I could> never> date anyone except my
>black Queen. It is not just the outer beauty that captivates
>and draws me to them. It is not the
>fact that they come in all shapes, sizes, colors and shades
>that I love them.
>Their inner beauty is what I find most appealing about black
>women. Their
>strong spirit, loving and nurturing souls, their integrity,
>their ability to
>overcome great obstacles, their willingness to stand for
>what they believe
>in, and their determination to succeed and reach their
>highest potential while enduring great pain and suffering is
>why I have fallen in love with
>black women.
>I honestly believe that your anger is geared more toward
>jealousy and envy
>more so than snotty looks. If this were not so, then why do
>you continuously
>go to tanning salons to darken your skin? If you are so
>proud to be white,
>then why don't you just be happy with your pale skin? Why do
>you continue to
>inject your lips, hips, and breasts with unnatural and
>dangerous substances
>so you can look fuller and more voluptuous?
>I think that your anger is really a result of you wanting to
>have what the
>black woman has.
>BOTTOM LINE: If I were looking for a docile woman, someone I
>can walk over
>and control, I would give you a call. But, unfortunately, I
>am looking for a
>Virtuous Woman. Someone that can be a good wife and mother
>to my children.
>Someone who can be my best friend and understands my
>struggles. I am looking
>for a soul mate. I am looking for a sister and;
>unfortunately, you do not
>and CANNOT fit the bill.
>No offense taken, none given.
