From your point of view; Why are so many black men dating white women? Follow up question; What have you been told by black men, (if you ever dated one), why the felt, the need to date outside the race?

Well, I haven't dated any black men, but I think that a lot of black men tend to put white women up on a pedestal, or view them as the ultimate prize or a trophy. I'm sure there are also genuine cases of true love or soul mates or whatever you want to call it, but I think a lot of it can be attributed to the natural desire to be dominant. We all want to be at the top, be successful, and I think some guys subconsciously view white women as a status symbol of sorts. Maybe it has something to do with "sticking it to the man" by taking his women (Ugh, what a caveman-like thought) but honestly, I don't know. I personally would be pretty pissed off if I thought the only reason someone liked me was because I'm white.
What's your opinion on it? Have you ever dated a white woman, or do you know guys that have? Do you think I'm way off base here?

Here's are two follow-up:
Based on your observations, do you sometimes feel African-Americans make too big a fuss about interracial?
Also, again based on your observations, how does white Americans in your area feel about interracial dating?
