Where are all the nice black men looking for nice white women. I know this is a subject of controversy, but there are some of us that prefer a man of color. Do any of you fit into this category, in this state of Louisiana. I am not from here, but have lived here long enough to know that things move very slowly in this area, and change is not widely accepted. Its time for some change.

It all depends where you live. I live in NY and I see some white/black relationships but alot of asian/white relationships and hispanic/black relationships. I'm into interracial dating but I prefer the white and asian men. My best friend is white and all she dates are men of color.

I am from NY, so you imagine what a culture shock it is to come here. Its almost impossible to find a date, yet in NY, all you had to do was be there. Its so different. People are friendly here, just so conservative. I can hardly stand it.

I am on the same page as you, I prefer white women over all others. Maybe you should have stayed up here in NY! lol! It's pretty conservative here in Western NY too, but there are some open minded people that enjoy the fun of interracial relatioships.

In Cali it's non-consequential on the surface of things; covertness is where you have to watch yourself Having travelled to New Orleans prior to Katrina, I felt there were still strong elements of the Antebellum South, which may explain why you're not finding what you're looking for. But don't you think it's difficult enough to find the 'right' compatible people without vocalizing a preference?

Maybe folks should listen and live by P-funk lyrics, ' Free your mind, and your ass will follow'...

well, I was trying to vent my frustrations and came across this blog. Somebody please take me back to where i come from cause this La shit is for the birds. This is nothing like the city. In the city you see power mixed couples,both of them are good looking and both carry well paying jobs. Over here you see Low class trailer park white women with tore up negroes all the time. I dont want that,I want what the white dudes want,keep them rejects. I come from class and wont be un equally matched up.
Right now the white girls are holding it down as far as the best bodies,it used to be the sisters,but now a lot of the sisiters has mistaken flab for fine.The sisters arent working out or staying active like they should. So, give me a white woman anyday but not the ones that routinely date blacks,give me one that i can bring somewhere.

La is bullshit on interracial dating.And i dont want my lighter skinned sister knowing more rap tunes than i do,give me a little of both cultures.

Actually, you might be right. I've been around the world and have seen many relationships of different nationalities. Here, it seems to be as you say, the no-goods being with the no-go0ds. Now, ladies, please pay attention to what I'm saying and not read into anything else. The no-good on both sides or even oriental, Native American, etc. Black guy out of prison gets white girl who does not finish high school. Both are more interested in smoking pot and using drugs than an education or a higher paying job. Other areas, both are professionals or both hold down jobs and both have high morals in society. Again, I've noticied it more in this area than others.

Years ago, I got kinda upset because I could not get a date with the girl I wanted. She did not date anybody that was not black. Well, I got upset and took me some time to realize that if the old laws were still in effect, she'd have to date me and might end up with me for a long time and never really be happy. So, I stepped back and let her be happy and find what she wanted.

I'm all for people finding that person they are looking for. That's what we're all here for. Good luck.

wow !--i used to employ 2 black guys to work for my company and we had become very good friends. we have had some very deep conversations about this dating outside their race. they had said they prefer white women becuase they were finer, better looking, and alot cleaner then their black sisters, but they also said that most black men use a white woman as a" trophie" . i have lived here near new orleans most of my life and worked in the french quarters . i have seen many interracial couples--mainly black men with white women, very rare do i see white man with a black woman . alot of white women believe that black men are larger in the "downtown" region------a "myth" that i can prove is wrong ! yes it's true that new orleans needs to catch up with the rest of the world here , but be careful of who you go with as aids is rampart amoung the black race here in new orleans !

I'm in NY and I think along the same lines as couchboy! I prefer white men over all others, as well!

I've been both ways married, same race and interacially. My second marriage was to an Arkansan (caucasion). So I no longer see interacial relationships as a problem in larger southern cities. I am not quite sure about Louisiana. I do believe he's out there for you Op, you just have to learn your way around! I see a lot of black men looking for white women, you just have to be patient. Be careful!

I personally would like to grow old with someone who would love me, and accept me. I don't care what color, a man is a man.

Good luck!

I am all for that! However, I ask where are all the nice black women? I feel that is really asking for it. I can go either way as far as color is concerned, but down here I feel pigeon holed into one race only or else I can put on a noose for a necktie, chew on a long piece of straw, goose step all over and put a bullseye on the back of my head. I just want to be me and my partner to be herself. I feel though that the old rules and old school is still very much in effect here. I love how we preach to one another that you can't judge a book by it's cover, but in the same breath say just make damn sure the colors match!

What the hell is that supposed to mean-- "DARK"... What, BLACK??

Stick with your own race, because the last I checked, it was dying.

Some people are real idiots. I checked my family tree years ago. If my mother or dad would have stuck to their origin, I'd have not been born. We live in the land of the free and free meaning choice of who we like. Years ago, it was taboo to even mention (and not only black and white) that you were attracted to somebody out of your race or origin. Please report them to the mod's. They need to find another avenue to date. Might send them to the KKK site.

I'm originally from NYC and I came down here to attend LSU and stayed afterwards. I I definetly agree with the conservatism down here.; From my experiences I've noticed that interracial dating is quite uncommon in Baton Rouge, which most likely stems from the conservative nature of the city. It's much easier to find a date in NYC than Baton Rouge.

i agree with him.....and because we went to school together, he knows my whole stance on interracial dating. my problem is i tend to date mostly white guys (lots of factors) and it's hard not only to date a guy like that down here, but to FIND a guy. the whole concept of the southern belle, with blonde hair and blue eyes, is RAMPANT down here. i've had guys immediately pass on dating me yet want to be friends because they have these idiotic false stereotypes of black/brown women in their heads. very frustrating. not just older generations, but a majority of the college-aged like me.

I have to agree on the whole IR dating in BatonRouge. I haven't dated a black man in years. Not because I didn't want to but because I refuse to date a racist. Just like I won't date a white man who is racist, neither will I date a black man who is one.

Of course chances are they won't be wanting to date me either but that's besides the point. In fact, on dating in BR in general, I was very close to throwing in the towel altogether!

There are tons of racist black men in BR that are against IR relationships when the woman is black and dating a white guy. I am tired of trying to filter them out from the non-racists. I much prefer black men from any other state than La.

I tend to have alot of long distance relationships because of this dilemma. My problem is not attracting and dating an upstanding white guy but maintaining the relationship.

No matter how good it's going down here, it's only a matter of time before other people start interfering and he gets either mistreated by his fellow white brothers and sisters or harassed by blacks.

I guess I have this unrealistic belief that a man should be a man and not be so weak and fearful but I suppose non-verbal silent threats carry alot of weight.

All in all, this place sucks and is backwards as all hell in general. Being an IR dater just adds to the misery.

OP, keep dating WHO you like. Don't let other people's bigotry stop you from enjoying your own life. There's probably a lovely black man with his eyes on you that may be thinking the same thing that you do and not sure if you date IR.

If people know you are IR-friendly then more guys will approach you but be careful you don't want the wrong kind of attention from the wrong people.

Just casually mention your ex-boyfriend resembling (famous black celebrity) or taking you to (famous black-sponsored banquet) and you're sure to get some eyes in your direction. Just be careful not to fall for one that wants you for the wrong reason and be ready to put up with passing sneers & nasty rumors from people who don't agree with you (ALSO LOOK OUT FOR HATERS THAT WANT TO PULL YOU BACK TO THEIR SIDE).

But you know what? Dealing with their BS is worth it. Because their opinions and rumors have no weight especially in comparison to the bliss you get from finally meeting Mr.Right.

Good luck girl!

I grew up in the 50's and 60's in La. All the racial problem generated from the Eastern part of La. Deep in the heart of Cajun country, there was not as many problems. We accepted the change in the laws and such. It seems that the northern and eastern part of this state still does not want to accept the fact that we are in a different time and want to keep it the way it was in the 1950's. Well, they are free (freedom of speech) to say what they want, but, are not free to do anything else but speak. People need to do their research and find out what the term "Creole" means. The people that came from Europe to this land in the 1500's and 1600's took Native American wives. The people that landed in the New Orleans area also mixed with islanders and Africans. I'm part Native American. Years ago, I guess my ggrandfather was a "half-breed". We won't see it in our time, but, years from now, there will be no race except the human race. Fact is that we fail to realize that many nationalities have already mixed and it will continue.
