A Black man's response to the
"Disgusted White Girl" article
Dear Jamie,
I would like to respond to the letter written by "A Disgusted White Girl."
Let me start by saying that I am a 28 year old black man. I graduated from
one of the most prestigious Universities in Atlanta Georgia with a Bachelor
of Arts Degree in Business Management. I have a good job at a major
corporation and have recently purchased a house. So, I consider myself to
be among the ranks of successful black men.
I will not use my precious time to slander white people. I just want to set
the record straight of why black men date white women. Back in the day, one
of the biggest reasons why black men dated white women was because they were
considered easy. The black girls in my neighborhood were raised in the
church. They were very strict about when they lost their virginity and who
they lost it to. Because of our impatience to wait, brothers would look for
someone who would give it up easy without too much hassle. So, they turned
to the white girls.
Nowadays, in my opinion, a lot of brothers date white
women because they are docile and easy to control. A lot of black men,
because of their insecurities, fears, and overall weaknesses, have become
intimidated by the strength of our black women. We are afraid that our
woman will be more successful than us, make more money than us, drive nicer
cars and own bigger houses. Because of this fear, many black men look for a
more docile woman. Someone we can control. I have talked to numerous black
men and they continuously comment on how easy it is to control and walk over
their white women.
I just want to set the record straight. I want a "Disgusted White Girl" to
know that not all successful black men date white women. Brothers like
Ahmad Rashad, Denzel Washington, Michael Jordan, Morris Chestnut, Will
Smith, Blair Underwood, Samuel Jackson, and Chris Rock all married strong
black women. And to flip the scrip, there are numerous white men, in and
out of the spot light, who openly or secretly desire black women over white
women. Ted Danson, Robert DeNiro, and David Bowie to name a few.
I just don't want "a disgusted white girl" to be misinformed. Stop thinking
that because you are white that you are some type of goddess. Remember,
when black Egyptian Queens like Hatsepshut and Nitorcris were ruling
Dynasties and armies of men in Egypt, you were over in the caves of Europe
eating raw meat and beating each other over the head with clubs. Read your
history.
It was the black woman that taught you how to cook and season your
food. It was the black woman that taught you how to raise your children.
It was black women who were breast feeding and raising your babies during
slavery. It is the black woman that had to endure watching their fathers,
husbands, and children beaten, killed, and thrown in jail. Black women were
born with two strikes against them: being black and being a women. And
through all this, Still They Rise!
It is because of the black women's
strength, elegance, power, love and beauty that I could never date anyone
except my black Queen. It is not just the outer beauty that captivates and
draws me to them. It is not the fact that they come in all shapes, sizes,
colors and shades that I love them. Their inner beauty is what I find most
appealing about black women.
Their strong spirit, loving and nurturing
souls, their integrity, their ability to overcome great obstacles, their
willingness to stand for what they believe in, and their determination to
succeed and reach their highest potential while enduring great pain and
suffering is why I have fallen in love with black women.
I honestly believe that your anger is geared more toward jealousy and envy
than snotty looks.
If this were not so, then why do you continuously go to
tanning salons to darken your skin? If you are so proud to be white, then
why don't you just be happy with your pale skin? Why do you continue to
inject your lips, hips, and breast with unnatural and dangerous substances
so you can look fuller and more voluptuous? I think that your anger is
really a result of you wanting to have what the black woman has.
Bottom Line: If I were looking for a docile woman. Someone I can walk over
and control, I would give you a call. But unfortunately, I am looking for a
Virtuous Woman. Some one that can be a good wife and mother to my children.
Someone who can be my best friend and understands my struggles. I am
looking for a soul mate. I am looking for a sister and unfortunately you do
not and can not fit the bill. I guess you are just S.O.L. No offense
taken, none given.
Signed,
Black Royalty
