As for why:

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.
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.

I agree with that assessment, like I said earlier, I was rolling my eyes at the OP too.
