I hate when people say "I'm not racist." When they add to it "I have black friends." (or whatever other race), my spider senses go haywire.
Just because I have a gay friend does not mean that I'm not homophobic. Just because I work with an Iranian and willingly converse with them does not mean that I'm not racist against Middle Easterners or Indians. Just because I think white women are FUCKING CRAZY does not mean that I hate all of them. Just because black women are trifling and cry and whine about spilled milk and water does not mean that I won't fuck their brains out. (These are all examples, folks.) In other words, none of this proves that you are or are NOT racist.
What does, you ask? Would a black guy, say Carlton from Fresh Prince, nice, a gentleman, always looks sharp, always respectful, anything but your stereotypical black guy, wanted to date or, dare I say it?, marry your and asked you for your permission for either. Is he good enough? Now, apply that to whatever "preference" you decide to not deal with (for whatever your sorry ass reason is). Is your negative preference good enough for your /? Your sister? Your brother? I dare say your spouse if you were 'forced' to allow someone else to satisfy them? Are they good enough? If not, guess what? You ARE racist, asshole.
Ok, so you're not racist, but you don't prefer black partners. Gotcha. Here's a simple fix: "I'm not into blacks. It's my preference." If you want to explain why and put me in the same box as every other thug-wanna-be, weed smokin', ebonics speaking negro out there, fine. Not every dark skinned brotha or sista is like that. They are far and few inbetween, mind you, particularly when it comes to dating, but not nonexistant.
For all of you who are offended by me using your 'type' or lifestyle as s point of reference, that's all they were: points of reference. Most whites and latinos/latinas have a problem with blacks, and think that saying "I'm not racist. I have black friends" is okay by us. That's like saying "I'm not racist...just careful." "WTF? STFU, kiss my ass and suck my dick!" is all I want to say in response.
Your thoughts?
