Current Events > "You're corny if you date white women."

(+) Yeah! (+)

Are we back in 1963, why are we treating "corny" like it's a serious insult?

Pretty sure she's not calling him corny because he dates white women, pretty sure she's calling him corny cause in high school he was into anime and would show off his headshots.

why are americans so weird

I think some people really need to get over high school.

you're corny if you care about who other people want to date and catch feelings over it

I have had a family member who married white go through similar judgement from other black people they don't even know in public. In this day n age that shit is played out and anyone i hear saying it would get corrected real quick. Mind your business and keep your dumb ass opinion to yourself. We need to move past that.

nah its kinda different as a minority to refuse date your own race.

I mean a lot of people do. The term is forgive but don't forget.

If your are talking about the girl who he interview she was trying to give the impression that they were friends. It seems like they weren't. Don't be fake is the lesson in that context.

I'm speaking on those who've been out of school for 7-10+ years and still complaining about how folks treated them back in school. To the point it affects how they deal with people today.

But yeah that's a stupid mindset that people need to let go of. Date whoever you want to date. I'm black and while my ex was black, my current girlfriend is white. I've never fixated on only dating black women. If our personalities vibe, then that's all I need.

its not all and i wouldnt even say most, but some US black folk honestly want u to just stay single instead of going interracial lol

is it corny if someone only dates white people?

You do have those weirdos. And before others get mad. These weirdo will stereotype men of their own race and state they will never date them.

However, MBJ literally tried to marry a black woman last year... so he isn't a weirdo.

alot of people consider that relationship fake as that was his only know relationship with a black woman.

Sounds kind of like "Is it gay for a man to date a woman" silliness.

But why would he fake it though?

It is. See Rihanna

publicity, to beat the he only dates white women allegations ?

not to say that I think its fake.

but hes only extremely public relationship is with a black socialite whos a notorious serial dater can come off like a publicity stunt.

why are americans so weird

To make a long story short, self esteem issue.

as a member of the black community in the US i can tell you it aint rare to hear about black folk gettin hate from other black folks for daring to date partners of other races

some black men take it super personal seeing one of us dating outside
some black women make it their mission to throw shade and escalate shit over the same thing
sometimes the latter pushes the former to make things violent to send a message, cause guess whos raising them...
the point is they take it as an act of betrayal to the tribe when we aint dating one of our own
some ladies especially dont like seeing a fine ass rich eligible black man flexing his dating options outside the group
dont matter if they had a chance with him or even want him, they expect him to stay with the group for the sake of image

its why the whole "passport bro" thing has been gettin highlighted in media lately
its always been a thing, people traveling outside of their country to find partners is not new
some of us just getting salty over others having options, thats all it is lol
men in the US have been doing it for years, the women can too, its nothing to be crying about
statistically black folk still prefer black partners like over 80% of the time no matter how much we bitch at each other

i know this tribalism bs shit all too well cause i was shocked they started petty shit over me dating other women who aint black
i thought that was something only the straights had to deal with, but o no it also bleeds into LGBTQ
had other black women turn me down and then giving me the stink eye when they saw me dating a hot asian, latina, or white girl
its not all and i wouldnt even say most, but some US black folk honestly want u to just stay single instead of going interracial lol
i really dont blame those of us who jump ship to get a break from the ridiculousness

Are we back in 1963, why are we treating "corny" like it's a serious insult?

Totally sigging this.

Didn't realize 'passport bros' was a thing, had to look that up. Throughout my life I have encountered a few people who dated/had a long-distance relationship with someone in another country, but I always figured it was fairly rare.
I guess it's understandable that people tend to broaden their horizons and expand their possibilities that way if they get boo'd in the country they live in for even just dating someone from another ethnicity, let alone start a relationship with them. Sounds like quite a hassle though, especially for people in the US if they want to find someone in another country aside from Canada and Mexico.
