Most of my African-American female friends are attractive, educated and independent. About half of them have dated white men. The ones who do not have said it is because they are not attracted to white men. I have two friends who are married to white men and seem to be comfortable in their relationships. Both of their husbands are full of "flavor", having traveled the world and met all types of people, in addition to being knowledgable aboutmany different subjects.


I was raised tobe knowledgable of my history and heritage while embracing a love of all people. I have never felt myself to be either inferior or superior toany human being, based on skin color, education, wealth or social status. Those are man-made measurements that hold no bearing for me. I am a free woman in that I am comfortable with whomever I chose to be with.If he possesses the character traits I desire in a male, then he might be black or white. This was a decision I made for myself a long time ago.


I have rarely heard it spoken how much the black man is preferred by so many women of other races. I think it is known, but rarely spoken. If he is educated, financially stableand attractive,then his desirability increases, and the pooldecreases for black women whoprefer only black men.


There are many attractiveblack women who are alone because of the lack of available partners. If she, too, is educated, financially stable andattractive, depending on her location, it might be harder for her to find a suitable partner. This is unfortunate.To me, it makes sense to date men of all races.


In answer to the original question, yes, there are some white men who date black women. It has been my experience that these men tend to be open-minded,socially conscious and more than likely, have associated with black people in general.
