I LIKE WHITE BOYS!


                SORRY FOR THE DELAY IN POSTING BUT I HAVE BEEN LIVING IN THE SKY FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS…!

SO THIS WEEK I POSTED A VERY CONTROVERSIAL POST WHICH GENERATED A LOT OF INTEREST FROM READERS. I READ ALL THE DIFFERENT VIEWS AND COMMENTS AND 

NOW I WILL SHARE MY OWN.
 FIRST OF ALL, ANYONE THAT THINKS THEY ARE BETTER THAN THE NEXT PERSON IS SIMPLY DELUDED. I DON’T CARE WHAT RACE YOU ARE, HOW SKINNY OR CURVY YOU ARE, HOW EDUCATED, HOW WELL OR ILL MANNERED YOU ARE OR HOW RICH, POOR OR CONNECTED YOU ARE…YOU ARE AND WILL NEVER BE BETTER THAN THE NEXT PERSON.

LOOK IT IS SIMPLE, BEING WHITE OR BLACK DOES NOT MAKE YOU A BETTER OR BAD PERSON IT JUST MAKES YOU DIFFERENT. I UNDERSTAND AND APPRECIATE THAT THIS TOPIC IS VERY BROAD AND WILL NEVER BE FULLY UNDERSTOOD BUT LETS NOT GET CARRIED AWAY BY SOCIETAL PRESSURES AND MARGINALIZATION. WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT AND IT IS NOT THE COLOUR OF OUR SKIN THAT SHAPES WHO WE ARE BUT RATHER OUR MORALS AND VALUES.

THE WHITE WOMAN’S VIEW OF THE BLACK WOMAN IS FLAWED ON SO MANY LEVELS BUT I CAN IDENTIFY WITH HER IGNORANCE TO AN EXTENT. I SAY THIS BECAUSE, LIKE THE TITLE OF THIS POST SAYS, I AM PERSONALLY ATTRACTED TO WHITE BOYS. MY FIRST KISS WAS WITH A WHITE BOY CALLED CONNIE… (OH THOSE WERE THE DAYS)
MY ATTRACTION WAS MISINFORMED AND NAÏVE…MY ATTRACTION WAS NOT BASED ON ANYTHING BUT FANTASY. GROWING UP IN LONDON AND WATCHING PREDOMINANTLY WHITE TV, MOVIES, READING WHITE NOVELS AND ALL THAT, MY ONLY VIEW OF A PERFECT MAN WAS A WHITE MAN. SO I THOUGHT IF I WANT TO BE WITH THE PERFECT MAN HE HAD TO BE WHITE…. THEN I GREW UP!
I STILL LIKE WHITE BOYS, BUT THE DIFFERENCE NOW IS THAT I LIKE BLACK BOYS TOO (AND ALL RACES FOR THAT MATTER) BECAUSE I HAVE COME TO UNDERSTAND THAT A MAN IS A MAN REGARDLESS OF HIS RACE OR BACKGROUND. SAME WAY A WOMAN IS A WOMAN REGARDLESS OF HER RACE.

I DON’T SHARE THE BELIEF THAT IT IS THE RACIAL STRUGGLES OF A PERSON THAT SHAPES THEIR ATTITUDES. I BELIEVE IT CONTRIBUTES BUT IT IS NOT THE SOLE FACTOR OF CHANGE.  PEOPLE BECOME BITTER BECAUSE OF THEIR INDIVIDUAL STRUGGLES AND HARDSHIPS NOT BECAUSE OF THE RACE THAT THEY ARE.
FOR WHAT EVER REASON BLACK MEN GO FOR WHITE WOMEN OR VISE VERSA, I BELIEVE IT IS A PERSONAL CHOICE.

TO BE HONEST IF A PERSON CHOOSES THEIR LIFE PARTNER BASED ON RACIAL ADVANTAGES OR ANYTHING RELATED THEN I FEEL SORRY FOR THEM AND THEIR PARTNER.

ME PERSONALLY, WHEN ITS MY TURN TO CHOOSE, I WILL CHOOSE MY PARTNER BASED ON HOW COMPATIBLE WE ARE ON A SPIRITUAL, INTELLECTUAL, SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL  LEVEL AND NOT BASE MY FUTURE HAPPINESS ON THE RACE THAT HE IS.

THIS POST IS NOT TO ANSWER OR SOLVE ANY ARGUMENT, IT IS SIMPLY MY VIEW ON THE TOPIC SO PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SHARE YOU VIEWS AND ENLIGHTEN US ALL…!
