You guys are a mess... cracking up laughing... Klan hoods...poor Ron Howard, who's clearly been neglecting the sunscreen...
I actually was sort of serious when I started the thread. I got a little annoyed because a certain poster's comments were in effect (I'm not saying it was intentional because I don't know her and things can be misread) saying "Don't get your hopes up because a white man is NOT going to marry you unless you are rich, gorgeous, or both"
First off, just because someone includes white men in her marriage options doesn't mean she's salivating after one, polishing up her gun and going all "Elmer Fudd" after the vanilla. And lots of us aren't checkin' for one atall.
Secondly, I know black women married to white men, and I do no insult to myself or my friends when I state truthfully that not a one of us are professionally connected nor supermodel-gorgeous. We are pretty-to-average, perfectly ordinary women married to handsome-to-average, perfectly ordinary men..
Thirdly, not all white men (hummph! Not even MOST) are some prize that we should be worried about whether we are "good enough" for them. This whole "White men want the best of the best and non rich/model black women are not it" attitude is silly. If white men are so into "best of the best" and will only deign to be with the most perfect of black women, then why are ANY married to black women when they could presumably just marry white? After all, if whiteness is best, as is the implication, why can't they just marry a model-gorgeous or rich white woman? They ARE out there! As many white dudes as I see out here with broke-down looking chicks? Puh-leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze.
Fourthly, I think we all know that a white man is a man like any other, and some days you will want to
because he is dancing on your last good nerve.
But you know what? I've realized that it is a waste of time trying prove anything. Some people will not be convinced, and heck if I care.
And uh, mods, please don't
me.
