Substandard White Women? Not a Good Look, Brotha...

" A lot of our ire about interrcial dating is about the seemingly different standards the Black men who date other women have for them as opposed to for us. On what planet would a Black 22-year-old domestic get to marry a Stanford grad who is one of the world's most successful athletes? Or the Kendra woman from "Girls Next Door": could a Black woman jump from Hugh Hefner's bed to the altar with a handsome pro-baller? What Black female could escape a sex tape scandal only to become a telvision star with a gorgeous, succesful boyfriend? Do you see famous or successful White men rolling around town with Black women of questionable accomplishment or ill repute? This isn't just celebrity territory, I've known men who had impossible standards for the Black women they dated, only to settle for the most marginal of women when they were of another race."

Thank you Sister Toldja...

I'm not against interracial dating. Really, I'm not. There is nothing wrong with expanding your horizons, but Black men - when having a hot little not-Black something on your arm becomes so important that it means dropping all standards, we have a problem. Seriously. Eeewww...
