Why is it that when a Black man dates a White woman no one has anything to say about it but when a White man dates a Black woman, everybody flips. I am a Black female who as always been attracted to White men but the controversy has got me a little bit on edge.

Why must you concern yourself with what others feel ? That is your choice. It is said a man only falls in love twice in a life-time. Yet, he'll only admit to once. Enjoy your life and stop concerning yourself with controversy.

Don't worry about what others say or think. If you want to date a white man, go for it! There was a Oprah episode where they were discussing biracial relationships and what the different races had to say about it. By far, the black men thought it was o.k. to date white women, but didn't want the black women to go outside of the race. Double Standard?!?! You do whatever makes you happy.

I date a black man and I'm white. I've encountered all sorts of problems from family, so-called friends, and complete strangers. However, we've stuck together through all of it and are going stronger than ever.
I say date who you want. If that person makes you happy, you should go for it. Those people who talk don't have to be the ones walking in your shoes--they don't live your life.

I understand that. I am attracted to white guys. I don't know why, I just am. When I was younger, my mom always pointed out black guys, saying that they looked nice. I got tired of it and told her I wasn't attracted to them, but if she saw a white guy staring, tell me. She nearly had a heart attack. She didn't talk to me for about three weeks afterwards. Yet, her own brother dates white or mexican women and she says nothing. I just don't get it.
Why should I deny what I like when men seem not to have to?

ya know what I dont see where it matters at all what people think. they say things because there stupid ratial things are just what they've been taught. I'm white and my white male cousin's wife is black and they have 3 kids together. At 1st people wanted to say things to them too. But they went on and ignored people. And theyre happy. Dont let other people ruin a good thing for u if your happy.

If you are attracted to white men and they are attracted to you, who cares what people think? As long as your happy and the men you date are happy, don't pay attention to the people who have a problem with it.

Date whatever ever man you want to date and don't worry about what other people have to say. I am not sure why there is the double standard, maybe because one is so much more popular. I have experienced this myself and you have to just learn to ignore people and their ignorant thougts.

Because people always have issues with seeing black women being happy.
