Shiner':
BON, I have been told some stories about Sororities, from women, that made my chapter very close to saint-like.

And having spent some summers on campus, I found out just what the girls got in their mail every month.

I don't see how this is offensive! I asked a simple question. Ya know, it's not like I'm going to sleep with a black guy, I just wanted to know if the myth was true!! I find some back men attractive and I don't see anything wrong with wanting to meet men from other races.

I'm new to this site and I've seen really sexual and offensive postings from the same people that find this thread offensive. GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!

You should post the links here.

Great idea!! How do I do that?:D

Man I feel you kiddo - I wonder if those black guys are better (on average, or maybe in the aggregate) at basketball than I am? JUST WONDERING!

--Look up the word 'myth' for the love of God . . . plus, even better, you can determine whether or not this is a myth through the wonder of Google, and a small knowledge of human sexuality studies

LMAO

This is the only statement on the thread that I've found to be offensive. I can't see how the original question could compare to your statements.

Sorry "sistah", I don't have any kind of thoughts on this subject.

How was that offensive?:confused:

As much as I rolled my eyes at the original poster's comment, I thought that AKA_Monet's comment was just as bad.

As for why:
a) the implication that this is some fixation that white girls have
b) the implication that the OP just wanted to act on said fixation
c) the implication that white girls liking black guys is a fetish
d) the implication that only black women - "real and true sistahs" should date black men

Btw, I get what "Mandingo" is supposed to mean, but I've never ever heard this term before.

However misguided, this isn't exactly an uncommon question. It shouldn't be treated as a sign of an unhealthy fixation.

Get out more - you've really never heard this term?

Yes, seriously. And your witty image doesn't accept hotlinking.

Like I said, I got what it meant and I've heard other terms meaning the same thing.

Hmm point taken but I think she was being facetious....but i could be wrong.

Very possibly, but what was almost certainly an honest question received a reply that insulted not only the OP but also by implication interracial relationships and white women in general.

Well she may have had an honest question but it seemed very silly and ignorant to me which is why people responded the way that they did. I was not offended by the question but I just thought it was silly.
