Well, I'm coming over to your house....Black_Princess lets go half on gas!:D

I'm coming too, split that gas up three ways!:) Shoot, gas is getting too expensive!:D

You know what . . . ur right, I'm from Caribbean descent too and West Indian guys are everywhere, but I really haven't found the right one cause like you said, a good catch knoooows their a good catch, and can sometimes act full of themselves and get out of pocket. BTW where is your family from?

Ah mean . . . I could help out with the gas ladies. . . but whose gonna provide da car :confused: because I just sold my "lemmon on wheels" and in NY, it's all about the public transportation.

I got it covered, I just got a new car. Just point me to the men!!:D

I know that's right . . . :D Gentlemen please have your resumes and list of qualifications ready:p interviews will begin on time

I'm assuming BellaSF will be holding the map and the directions:D

I dated a white cop... the cultural differences weren't so obvious, but it was fun and I enjoyed it... I might do it again...

The question was would you date not sleep with. Not attempting to get this forum off topic, but I am SO tired of other women objectifying our men and using them to get a "taste" of what a brother is like to satisfy some deep longing they have for brothers. Our men are NOT commodities on an auction block to be purchased and sold to the highest bidder for an elicit escapade only to be discarded after they have been used. :mad: (I am for the moment disregarding the fact that many of the brothers allow themselves to be used . . ) Sorry Mods . . .

but to answer the question . . . before I got married, I considered it briefly - not to quench any curiousity, but it was a genuine attraction. I decided being with a brother of another hue was NOT what I wanted to do . . . I love my brothers too much . . ..

ok i feel you on this... but black women do the same thing. if i say, "hey i think ima get my swirl on," arent i objectifying white men and trying to get a taste?

for the most part, attraction transcends color lines... if you were "genuinely attracted" to a non-black man, it would be because:
--you find him attractive and he happens to be non-black
--you find him attractive due to the fact that he is non-black

in other words, was it an attraction to the looks or the skin?

I think it is a bit different because our interest (if the reason is purely sexual) is not based on some illusion that somehow white men are these sexually ravenous beings that are instinctively better in bed. . . it isn't based off of some slave master mentality that being with a white man is something I have longed to do but haven't because it has been taboo for so long. I think the reasoning behind it is differnet because of the history


Attraction to looks and personality and he happened to be white. . .now if the wg is attracted to a brother's looks and personality - ok (still not in favor of it, but do what you do). However, my response was based on the comment 'I have never slept with a black man" - meaning color was the major factor . . not looks, not personality . . . plus she had posted that same dumb azz question/comment in another thread, but presented it in terms of sterotypical thoughts about AfAm men in bed. :rolleyes:

Although I am happily married, when we attended a conference in Hawaii, I kinna had an "eye allergy" with all the polynesian men... I mean, from Tahiti to Samoa, those ummm, loin cloths to kukui nuts... Well, let's just say the lanai at the Sheraton caused me problems on Wakiki... :D ;)

OMG!!!! This is the TRUTH!!!!! I was stationed in Hawaii for 3 years and those Samoan men are FIIIIINE!!! I just had a couple of flashbacks from reading your post!!! LOL:cool: ;) :D

Pacific Islander men are yummy. :)

Took the words right out my mouth.

They certainly are! We have a large Polynesian (namely Samoan) population back home in Anchorage (AK). Their skin, their hair, their broad shoulders, and their *HEIGHT* (gots to be tall to get at me) make me swoon!!! :p :D
