ive genuinely never heard a guy say he wont date a girl who isnt white that is not a thing i have ever heard and its not something people tend to use when making posts like this im really curious about hwy you included that like have you heard people say that?? idk maybe it's just where i live that stuff like that isnt said

If you would still like a genuine answer to your question I know a good amount of white guys who don't date black girls specifically. That being said there are probably three times as many white girls who refuse to date any people of color, and there's a special stigma against black guy/white girl couplings.

(As I said down there) it's also not just a white doesn't date black it's that everyone is taught to value white standards of beauty while POC are seen as "ugly"/"trashy"/"ghetto"/"not my type"

I don't disagree with that; I was just speaking from personal experience. Also white women who do date people of color tend to get a lot more sh/t for it than white males do.

(as for your 2nd sentence -- even though you said to disregard it its actually rly relevant) yeah i think a lot of it is r4cist ideals but a big part of it is also just plain old misogyny -- guys cant handle it when they see women wanting to do things on their own and they sure as hell cant handle it when its with someone outside of their race.

Pretty much the "Oh god they're taking our women" idea. And it's relevant to the topic but not directly to what you said to the other person so that's why I said to disregard it but yeah.

Wait I misunderstood what you said. My second sentence is pretty much irrelevant, sorry.

Thank you for clearing that up a bit for me!
Where I live, as I said down there, it's a predominately hispanic demographic so for guys to only date white girls would mean all the guys vying for very few girls, and the only other place I lived was a very, very small Welsh village so absolutely 100% of that population was white so there wouldn't have been an option anyway. I'm assuming that it's because of the environments I've lived in that I've never been exposed to that type of behaviour from guys.
Thanks again!

lmao yeah I'm sure you've never heard it bc you're white/white passing o k
not to mention the person who originally made this comic is white tho so idk why kind of disillusioned world you're living in

wow it was a genuine question because i have honestly never heard a guy say it you don't have to be so rude.
ill ask the person who made the comic. thanks for being mean to me when i was asking just trying to get a better perception of where it was coming from because every single other thing in this is something i've heard someone say but that wasn't.
chill out a little.

wow brah don't even come at me with your victim complex, acting as if you never saw and commented in agreement with eli22bs quote, as if you weren't going here to try to pick a bone with me and see how id react.
not to mention the fact that i shouldn't have to "chill out a little" over a micro aggression that I have to face daily. obviously I have heard it multiple times and for you to try to diminish a problem that WOC face daily to a "did this really happen or not???" thing is inconsiderate.

also i just want to apologise for upsetting u and the, apparent, other person who gave me thumbs down.
i really was only asking a question. i didnt mean to make anyone mad.
seems thats the only thing im good at on this website is accidentally upsetting people

i wasnt trying to start anything.
i didnt know that quote was about you until i went back and looked at it just now because you mentioned it.
i was asking a question. at my school the population is 90% hispanic and about 5% white (this are actual statistics from our school's annual report which includes a section on percentage of each race) so perhaps, because of the majority of people i'm surrounded by being people who are not white meaning a majority of the girls guys are dating where i live arent either, is why i have never heard it.
i wasnt trying to suggest it doesnt happen, i was saying ive just never heard it and i was attempting to ask you to educate me a bit on it but im sorry you took it the wrong way.
i can see no matter what i say you are going to think i was trying to be rude. by chill out i meant please dont be so rude to me when im trying to be civil with you, again im sorry you misunderstood me i could have been more clear.
im going to leave now because this isnt going to go anywhere other than you continuing to get mad at me.

I too live in SoCal and attend a school with a high non-white population and it's not just a "white doesn't date black" type thing it's specifically the fact that men regardless of race specifically CHOOSE to not date women of color because everyone is taught to value a white woman's beauty. Again though I'm not going to chill out because me talking about a subject that I have strong passion for makes you feel uncomfortable. It's tiring to hear as a woman of color that they have to "chill out" and "be more nice" when everyone else is trying to invalidate our experiences. Also when I checked all my comments had thumbs down while yours had 2 thumbs up so I'm not sure why you feel the need to whine over comment points or "making people upset"

All I have left to say to you is, it genuinely does not happen in my community. Why that is I'm not sure.
I'm not even originally from SoCal I lived in a very small Welsh village before with a population that was entirely white, so I'm not very aware of issues like this as I have not met many people exposed to them. I asking you to educate me. I wasn't stating it "makes me uncomfortable" because it doesn't, and you are continuing to misunderstand why I said chill out (I can see now perhaps that was not the best word choice).
Also, that apology, which was a genuine apology that you are choosing to trivialise for a reason I do not understand, was made at 2 in the morning when I had two thumbs down and you had three up.
Thats all I have left to say.
I do not care if you respond as I have said multiple times that I was only trying to understand something I am not exposed to.
As such an advocate for minorities, I'd think you'd be all for educating people of your cause rather than berating them for asking you to.
Goodbye.

I'm sure it doesn't happen consciously, as people in my area don't make a conscious effort to say that they won't date POC. However, I always hear it as more often than not a slip of the tongue, where they'll get too comfortable in confiding in me and let it slip that they wouldn't date someone because of their color or any other stereotypically r4cist reason.
My job isn't to educate, Google is a resource and that's how any other person should do it. People of color are always having to "educate" about our experiences of racial prejudices and discrimination and our time is always being demanded from us. If I wanted to educate, I would write an essay on the topic and post it for you to read. But for the moment, this is a quote that was made for other women in color (and women in general) to relate to.
I'm no "advocate" for a minority, I am a minority. I am a person of color that isn't here to teach my experiences down to a primitive level for those who are "curious" and would only like to hear of our story as a sideshow. If you really would like to know more and learn of my history, you can Google it where you could find plenty of essays and books written by those who are willing to spread our culture.

Okay. Well my mistake as you seemed to come off as an advocate to me considering the amount of social justice-type quotes, especially the one about not trusting feminists on this website who are - by definition - advocates) you post and the comments you left Eli22b. That's my mistake; I should not have assumed you were something you are now telling me you aren't. I'm sorry.
I can see what you mean about it being a subconsciously done thing and if that is the case that would be exactly why I've never heard it as it isn't spoken about where I live and also just plain out doesn't occur because of population demographics.
I'm sorry this got so out of hand, I hope we can just agree to forgive and forget and move on with both of our lives.
