Do Black Men Prefer White Women?
“While everyone is entitled to their preferences, true love has no colour…”
– Xenocrates
In the film Obsessed (2009), a deranged white woman (played by Ali Larter) comes on rather strongly to a powerful black executive (played by Idris Elba). Thereafter, the film becomes a setup for the ultimate cat fight between the white woman and the black man’s wife (played by Beyoncé Knowles). The plot reverses the black man pursues white woman stereotype.
While it is obvious that the film’s ludicrous plot is nothing more than a visualization of the revenge fantasy of every black woman who has ever lost a lover to a white woman, it does beg the question: Do black men prefer white women? Is there any truth to this stereotype? I explore this and other related issues in this thought provoking piece on sex and racial politics.

If the divorced man has children, know up front you will at some point be affected by this.
Stop looking for a man to provide all your entertainment and start looking for a source of fulfilment outside of a relationship.
You need to break his one-track mind and get him to look around – get him to notice
you again.
The above comments are a collection of the most racist, retarded and uneducated comments I have ever read in my life.
Agreed.
