AKA2D '91, it would seem that it is our Caucasian brethren who always warn of reopening old wounds. Wounds they inflicted. Now, isn't that funny?
I have to disagree with Maven. The myth of black men "dying" to be with white women is just that - myth. I think that is to generalized of a statement. I believe a man should pursue a love interest regardless of race. At the same time, there is nothing more beautiful on earth than a black woman. No doubt about that.
This myth did lead to many lynching. Think Rosewood, or the teenage boy who was lynched for looking at a white woman "inappropriately". Still, this that we dream solely of being with white women is untrue. I have nothing against white women, but I just never was attracted to them. I guess it't the African in me... the love of curves! However, what if I am? Does that make me less of a "black" man?
Most of us are Equal Opportunity. Yet, a black woman with a white man would probably raise more eyebrows than the reverse situation. The interracial thing is something that still is frowned upon, by both sides, if you may.
To summarize, let a man have the perfect woman. Black or white.
