wine…beer…. Jack…. and boy howdy …. when it's comes to buying
a car or motorcycle….. what color and what to put in it or on it….
and to mambo to the dawn's early light…. some can….. and some aint
that bunny with the drum…. but the Dark Question is …. do ladies

I have a pretty good understanding of men I think. If i were a man for a day I'd like to f*ck a woman's brains out. Well, now that I mention it, there are tools for such things so I don't actually have to be a man. Being a woman is way cooler, i have no interest in being a man even for a moment. I think women are more intriguing. Perhaps if we didn't have the freedoms that we do. Once upon a time and even now in certain places, there would be an advantage to passing for a man every now and then.

The reference to the book isn't that important, I just thought if someone knew, offhand… I found it interesting because Gary Younge generally has an interesting take on American culture, being both black and British. Plus it demonstrates that this isn't just a question which is being asked in women's magazines, but is (at least anecdotally) something real people are asking.

You mention, “I think it becomes a problem only when someone treats the preference as a requirement” and “I think it's rather hard to tell what someone's motives are unless that person is blatantly broadcasting her/his views.” Agreed. :) BTW, I'm not sure about the book. Does anyone else know?

I sort of agree with what you're saying, but I have a few points and questions.

Many people do have preferences. For example, I prefer dark hair and brown eyes. I think it becomes a problem only when someone treats the preference as a requirement; in my case that would translate to a refusal to get involved with blondes. So long as it remains a mere preference--someone with dark hair is more likely to catch my attention, I'm somewhat more likely to date someone with dark hair--I don't see any problem with it. But it can be difficult to tell at what point it's a preference and at what point it's an obsession, especially if I don't recognize it myself (obviously, the sort of person who goes around saying "I only date big-breasted redheads" is easy to peg).

If you're basing your assessment on your own observations, it's possible to mistake circumstance for obsession. For instance if you met a white guy and he showed you pictures of his ex-girlfriends and they were all asian, you might think that he has a fetish. But what if you then learned that he grew up in Taiwan, where almost every woman he was likely to meet was asian? Then it becomes a matter of availability; we tend to get involved with the sort of people who are available to us.

We generally agree that the white guy who insists on dating black women is just interested in the external package and not the person. What do we say about the white person who insists on dating only other white people? I guess s/he's frequently called racist. And what do we call the black man or woman who will only get involved with black men or women? I find it interesting that this appears to be ideal as far as some are concerned. A search on the topic leads to a lot of complaints in the vein of "why are all the hot black guys dating outside their race?" (Side note: I remember reading a story in one of Gary Younge's books about being asked what colour his wife was. I tried to look it up but couldn't find it. Does anyone know which book, and what page that was? I suspect it would be from 'No Place Like Home.')

Of course it's also possible to obsess with variety ("I haven't dated one of those before!"). All in all, I think it's rather hard to tell what someone's motives are unless that person is blatantly broadcasting her/his views.

Hey, if you had both, if somebody told you to go fuck yourself you actually could! That might be neat-o. Once, at least.
