Sorry, but most men regardless of race date and marry intra racially. Men generally do seem to prefer lighter skinned women but mainly stay within their race/ethnic group. So black men prefer lighter black women, Latino men prefer lighter Latino women, Asian men prefer lighter Asian women, etc. It’s not a reality that

There are literally hundreds of black romances out there, many of them good. What this sounds like is a contest. Between, MOC and WOC who can bed the most white people? Because for you to say you can’t think of many times that the black woman is the love interest, I’m assuming you mean the love interest of a white man

So Asian women are fetishized and sexless? Really? And how many movies really feature a MOC rejecting WOC for the “freedom” of a WW? Usually its the WOC being rescued from patriarchy by the WM.

But really, how many stories feature a brown American guy getting with a white girl? I can’t think of any other than this and Master of None.

Hollywood doesn’ t make movies about South Indians, period. Here we have one and it’s getting slammed!

“Again”? How many romances feature a brown man with any woman let alone a white woman?

Maid in Manhattan or pretty much any JLo movie. Also, Bride and Prejudice(which made the Indian suitor look like a buffoon). On TV there are lots like Jane the Virgin, The New Girl, Grey’s Anatomy, Quantico and others.

Well, I guess all those great black romances really sucked in your mind. Or maybe you’ve never seen them.

I don’t think it’s the white folks who have an issue with this article. I think a lot of the criticism is coming from POC themselves.

MOC of color are hardly cast as the romantic too. There is simply not many POC getting lead roles period. The media may not give WOC the same equal status as WW but is not the fault of MOC and by demanding that any MOC lead has to have a WOC partner you are unfairly burdening them with the responsibility of rectifying

Generally, the media avoids showing WW in interracial relationships. They are the least likely to be represented as such.

Outside of Jessica Jones,how many feature a main protag in a BM/WW relationships?

In Muslim culture, the man has to initiate and no, he doesn’t necessarily have the upper hand in marriage negotiations. A man often has to come up with a large dowry in order to even be considered for marriage by the women and her family. And men are judged for not being married as well.

Men are raised to GET MARRIED as well.

And white men aren’t held up as ideal!

Last I checked the children of black men are still black.

The romantic choices of famous black men have no affect on black women. Why is it hard for you to respect the romantic choices of black men? How is it done at the expense of black women? You date IR but is it at the expense of black men? That makes no sense.

So you hate black men?

How is this at the expense of non-white women? How many movies feature a MOC protag opposite a white woman?

And WM aren’t a come up for WOC? Who has the most power in this nation and who is represented as the most desirable? WM.
