Blacks More Anti-miscegenationist Than Whites

[Sava]

I lived on the Northwest side of Chicago and had a lot of black friends growing up. I still talk to some of them. This is one of those true stereotypes. What are you smoking Albert?

[Ming]

I have to agree with Albert on this one. I think it's an untrue stereotype. I also have a lot of black friends, and they no more go for fat women than their white counterparts. It's all a matter of PERSONAL taste.

[Al B. Sure!]

Maybe we should define thickness first... i might have been too hasty... what did you mean, Chegitz, when you said "thick" and "skinny" women?

[Al B. Sure!]

Ming:

It's cause on tv there's always that general idea that black men like bigger women and all that ****... and you know that any thing like that on SNL or MadTV or whatever other show can not be taken seriously...

any stereotype has some truth in it, but that truth is not significant enough... i'm positive you can find just as many white and rican men who like bigger women as black men who like bigger women


thanks

Thick headed with skinny ears.

I live in inner city Philly. I definently know more black people than you do... and i've known them since i was a baby.

Living in the same neighborhood and living in the same room are two very different things. There is a qualitiative difference. I am family, you're a wannabe. I don't pretend to be something I'm not. You're a wannabe. You think you're keepin' it real. Yeah, real dumb.

There's a lot more to Black people than inner-city Philadelphia. If you had half the brains you think you have, you'd be smart enough to realize that the word "tend" doesn't mean "always" or "all" or necessarily even "mostly."

Of course it's a matter of personal taste. But if you did a study, you'd find a strong percentage, probably a majority, of black men that like big women. Stereotypes are called stereotypes for a reason. They don't represent the entirety of the groups they are linked with. But there are usually enough people that fall into a stereotypes for them to become stereotypes in the first place!

Ah, grasshopper, you show the beginings of wisdom.

Thick = bigger than Marilyn Monroe, but not necessarily obese. Aka, "healthy." In the white fashion world, these women would be considered fat.

skinny = Jeniffer Anniston, Calista Flockheart, etc.

I'm gonna get banned soon, I think. I've been pretty ornery of late.

Let me apologize, Speer. I'm sorry for questioning your intelligence.

damn, just when I hoped this thread was about to go red-hot...

Chegitz:

There are black people i know today who i was friends with in kindergarten... that's closer than 'marrying' into a family.

secondly, i have never met anyone who thinks jennifer aniston and that other woman (she's alley mcbeal right?) is attractive.

Thirdly, I know people who like that thickness but they're even between the races. Bear in mind that being a teenager, I am far closer to knowing what my fellow males like in women than you, an almost middle aged practically married man


thanks

I still don't buy the stereo type... Whenever I go out drinking with the guys from work (black... white... asian... hispanic...) the overall preference is for the thinner than Marilyn Monroe female. I've never heard ANYBODY call somebody heavier than that a fox... or claim they would love to jump in the sack with them.
And after a few drinks... people seem REALLY honest about their opinions, and are more than willing to share them with everybody.

There was one guy who liked the more "full figure"... but he was a white guy

[chequita guevara]

I imagine in your case, Ming, it's a class thing. BAPs tend to be paragons of society's standards of beauty. (I tried to date a BAP once, but a scraggly white guy wasn't really up to her family's standards, made her crazy too cuz she really liked me a lot.) Middle class Black men are therefore more likely to tend to see that as their standard of beauty.

[Ming]

You could be right on that Che... Everybody I hang with are professionals... (even though back in college, I don't remember any of my black or white friends desiring heavier women either )

So maybe it's not a black stereo type at all... maybe it's a "class" stereo type

[monolith94]

What does BAP stand for?

And you were right to back off che, you and albert boh shouldn't get into this whole "I know black better than you" ****, it makes you both look ridiculous, like you're comparing your gentlemen and bragging or something...
