Just thought I'd share my experiences.
I'm black and open to dating anyone of any colour. However the experiences I have with white guys that approach me are far too irritating.
Recently a guy at work was saying some really dumb things, and I responded in annoyance. He then said "Don't worry, I hang around with black girls, I'm used to the attitude." If you don't understand why that statement is wrong and you are a white guy, you are the exact type I would not date.
The colour of my skin does not determine how I respond to ignorance and stupidity. Instead of the guy to address the fact that he had made a mistake, he decided to flip it on me because I am black. He is the same person who made a disgusting remark to me, telling me that my nickname should be brown suga or some other stupid thing. And he tried to 'school' me once, and tell me that the correct way to refer to a black person is 'coloured'. This is the type of white guy I do not like. I am not a toy, I am not an accessory, I am not a political statement, but the majority of white guys see me as all these things, especially as my skin is dark.
I never have this problem with Asian, Arabic or Oriental guys. Perhaps if white guys stopped coming out with the cringeworthy chicken and Love & Hip Hop references (Which I do not watch) then black girls would stop seeing them as the friend they go to for group work help.
As another poster rightly said, do you know how big Africa is? Do you know how diverse the West Indies are? Its very short sighted to not not take the time to get to know that black girl specifically, and to instead make statements based on stereotypes and racial prejudices. I really am not here to educate my boyfriend on cultural relations.
