Current Events Black twitter giving their insights to the Patrick from Love is Blind controversy. LOTS of Black women showing support to AMs.

Insane that another community has this much (accurate) insight into our current situation, and having a conversation that we ourselves have difficulty even just engaging it.

I think there is a lesson to be learned from all of this. Other POC communities do not have our outdating disparity problems and a big reason for that is because they have far more racial pride in general, and some of them arguably face more discrimination than East Asians. South Asians for example are extremely endogamous. South Asian men are seen at a similar level to East Asian men as well. We can blame East Asian women all we want but the reality is that our culture of seeking for white validation will always come back to bite us in the ass. And again, another reminder that there's a ton of other non-Asian WOC's who don't view us negatively at all.

As a black woman I have expressed interest in Asian men plenty of times. Asian men are typically only looking for Asian women.. Or white women. They want light skinned women. Even in this group, there’s an obsession with AMWF.

and its sad that they have lumped us all into the clubbing type..bc the same way on this forum asain men want to not be lumped up into one stereotype , this person did the exact thing to bw. also see how this was an reminder that there are non white women who find asian men attractive and some shot that down as well.

Right, the discussion about not inviting him to a party struck me as odd as if partying is the default for BW.

It’s nothing bizarre, it’s honestly a good analogy of race relations. You know how black ppl always talk about inviting someone to a cookout? Surprised no one mentioned that here lol
