But I'm thinking about my own future kids, and I know that little girls are very impressionable, and gravitate to the choices of their mothers. The sororities that I listed are prominent in the midwest, where I went to college, and I studied them further, and I would support a wife and daughters who were part of any of these organizations. That is the only reason that I listed the sororities that I did. If I had not, then I would have still had that same selection mechanism going on in the back of my head.

As for the race of the female. I love white women. I would marry a white woman. I would raise a family with a white woman. Or a woman of another race. But I wanted to start out by meeting someone with whom I had more in common rather than less.

I hope that this update of my post helps to lay to rest some of the criticisms and concerns that I have read. But I think it probably made it worse.

Why does this response remind me of that scene in "Get on the Bus."

"I could never go that **bleep** school like Tennessee State or Fisk."
