First of all let me start by saying I love all black people.

But I am a foundational black American even though I was born and live most of my life in the big cities of the Northeast my roots are in the Deep South . That is also how I have lived my life so most of my lived experience is that of a black man in America.

My observation in my point of view is better off the met somebody of your own ethnic background.

If your black American you better off marrying another Foundation black American.

If you are a Haitian you better off marrying another Haitian

If your some sort of African like Nigerian and you're better off marrying somebody from your country.



I remember I had a homeboy who was in Jamaican and he told me he had to ditch his black girlfriend because she kept saying disrespectful things about his Pat's why and the way Jamaicans cook their food and the things that they ate. After a while it just got irritating.

I could not imagine having to explain certain things about being a black man in America to a woman from a Caribbean African or( Latin culture even if she is black).

Some of my immediate relatives who are older now have a lot of psychological problems because of the things they experienced growing up and the Jim Crow Mississippi & Alabama. It's just entirely too much work try each someone what it is like to be a foundational black American. And some of the things that we have been through.

You came to this conclusion just off one anecdote?

Not at all. That's just one example. I had a friend one time who is married to a Haitian woman straight from Haiti she was telling me about how she went to Alabama. I responded with disdain for the state of Alabama. From the look on her face I could tell she could not understand where I was coming from.

My whole point is this at this point of my life I don't want to have to do too much explaining about where I am in my life and how I got there. Somebody with a similar background would understand. Another black person of African American descent with roots in the shop when I understand a lot of the circumstances that I've come across in my life while somebody from another place in the world would not.

You really going with the being a man thing huh?


:gucci: I hate to to go there but I'm probably more of a man than most guys these days man. I see the world for what it is not for what I wanted to be I wanted to be. I know that they are boundaries.

Are you telling me you got black Chinese in Oakland? If so I really like to see this.:jawalrus:
Naw, there's just a lot of cultural mixing here. Oakland High School in particular was about half Asian with the rest Black and Mexican. I had friends who's parents sent their black children to chinese school so they could learn the language.

I almost never get chose up on by FBA women. Save for 1, every black woman I’ve been with has been from some Caribbean or Latin American country.

Where It’s Not Safe
You've got to be joking me. You can't be serious right? So you believe white women are the same as black women and Indian women are the same as Chinese women?
All woman have the same core characteristics. The motherboard is all the same but every desktop is different.
