First off, thanks for making an insightful post with well thought out survey options.
I cited cultural differences, peer pressure from family/society to stick to black women, and I don’t care about race, I care about love.
My ex was a white woman and we dated for over 4yrs back in my early 20s. It was my first real relationship and we got along really well! Lots of sex, adventures, and so on.
Here’s where things were fucked up, to say the least. Her *******-in-law was a racist. I’m not one to just throw out that type of judgement of character either. My ex knew it too. She despised him for it, but you’re kinda stuck with family. My ex and I were serious and I considered even marrying her (in my mind) but I couldn’t imagine her *******-in-law being there, without the consequences of an ass whooping and/or being denounced by my whole family. I lump his inability to be civil under cultural differences. I knew it grind his gears knowing I was fucking his *******-in-law, sometimes even in his house
Also, my family would constantly make comments about me dating a white woman. Often, it was in jest, but it had the same effect. I’d feel I was somehow in the wrong. You factor in history of enslavement and other Deep South atrocities, and that ******* kinda weighs on your mental. Hell, even after I began to introduce my current gf (who is black) to family, they’d make comments like, “She’s not white?!” Mind you, she’s only the second person I’ve ever dated!
With all that being said, my dick and heart don’t discriminate. When I find someone who can leave both feeling fulfilled, I go for it, regardless of race.
