Black man, white man, the skin color may be different but the parts are the same. Whatever the case, I feel the need to say that while I believe my beautiful sistas should keep their options open when it comes to finding love, this queen of the shouldn’t begin her quest for love and happiness with skin tone or racial and ethnic modifiers.
“According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there were 1.8 million
more black women than black men in 2000, and that number has not improved since
then. That means that if every black man in America married a black woman
today, many women hoping to marry a black man would not make it down the
aisle.”
Those stats are enough to bring attractive, independent and
college educated sistas to their knees in frustration and make them reluctant to leave unhealthy,
unhappy and unequal relationships with black men that make them feel damaged
for reasons such as kinky hair, plump hips a full-sized rear end and a natural dark brown tan most white women pay an expensive price for.
These alarming stats should be a wake up call to black women reluctant to
experience love from a man that may be different from her cultural
upbringing.
I
believe that all men and women are flawed in some way no matter what your
ethnic background or race. The universal
truth of choosing a good mate is character not color.
