For anyone wondering how often black college students are hooking up on campuses across America,Slate recently published some findings that could be seen as bad news or good news.

According to the online magazine, hooking up -- loosely defined as making out and/or having sex with a person with whom you're not in a relationship -- is more popular among rich and wealthy white students than it is black students.

African-American students are less likely to hook up than white students. Sociological studies suggest that lingering racism plays a part: Black people have been traditionally stereotyped as hypersexual (trigger warning: see the "jezebel" and "mandingo" stereotypes). So, for black men and women, embracing sexual freedom can bring individual rewards, but also risks affirming harmful beliefs about African-Americans. In response, some black people feel the need to perform a politics of respectability. Rashawn Ray and Jason Rosow, for example, in a comparison of black and white fraternities, found that black men's resistance to negative racial stereotypes sometimes involved being "good" and following mainstream social norms of appearance and behavior.

The Slate article is one of many published since the New York Times ran an investigative feature on the rise of hookup culture on college campuses, specifically among women. The author focused on female co-eds at the University of Pennsylvania, spending a school year interviewing more than 60 women to get a read on hookup culture today.

At black schools they keep the women's dorm on lockdown. At a couple of the schools I've frequented you have to leave your ID with someone in the lobby just to get in the building and if you aren't back to pick it up by 8pm they come looking for your ass. If you get caught in the women's dorm after hours you get written up.

At the white schools most of the dorms were co-ed and nobody was running checks at the ones that weren't.

Most chicks in college don't want to hook up with black dudes unless they are an athlete, or in a frat. It's probably not that they don't want to, they just don't get as many opportunities.

You ain't lying. I've seen dudes go from nobody on campus to being Kanye West after joining a frat. And don't let the females find out he was "Made"...oh shyt!

I could've told y'all this. I have acquaintances in both communities at my school (University of Florida) and some of the stories these white people have told me are straight up :dwillhuh::huhldup::scusthov:.

I'm talking about white sorority girls sleeping with half the line of a group of frat nikkas, chicks sleeping with their best friend's boyfriend and his friends, sleeping with many of the athletes, etc.

Not to self incriminate, but I got some stories involved with these snow bunnies too. :mjpls:
