I am a 19yr old asian girl that is VERY attracted to good looking black guys. Love the way most walk, dance, sing, accents, like the hip hop style clothes, tan, big sexy lips, most of their eyes, black eyes and curly black hair. I am dating three black guys right now and i find that i stare at black guys the most. (Cuz i love to stare at them)
They're hot, but i NOTICED that all the black guys i meet seem to just want sex from me, but guys from other races aren't all like that. Excluding south american guys because i've never dated any. Just one girl's opinions and experience.

I did post something postive about my cousin and her African American BF a couple of weeks ago...a positive story on how both have been accepted by their respective families. Unfortunately very few people were interested.

Salaam from The sea:

History has come one full circle. When the civilized moors (blacks and Arabs) came to Europe, the whites wanted to defend their way of life...living in the caves, hunting and fishing and in some cases even practicing human sacrifices (as in parts of Germany, Scandinavia and the Baltics). The whites said that the women's place is at home and they should be sacrificed during religious rituals. The Moors tried to teach the whites to treat their women with respect.

Fast forward to 2001. Some descendants of the moors are retreating into the caves (Bin Laden and company) and the whites are telling these people (the Taliban) to treat their women better.

Yes, my family is from Thailand. I am second generation here in the US. No, not my boyfriend....my husband. He is from India...from the South. I guess they mistook him for an African American. Actually, three of my cousins are married to African Americans. One of the cousins is part Thai, part Chinese, and another is part Thai and part Korean!!

Could not agree with you more, some of us have been trying to initiate and maintain positive and enlightening discussion on this board, however you understand it's hard to lose the haters and detractors and racist white boys etc. from the discussion.
I'm married to a lovely so called "mail order bride" ha ha the joke is on those with a closed mind and limited thinking. Sure, it took a little work like any other marriage but we got a damn good thing goin and so many people are envious of how we keep our shit together. Please feel free to share.

Asian Female:

I know you can see the mentality of those girls. Windsor Castle.... a plantation.... that's like hash compared to filet mignon. I won't even bother my friends in the UK with that joke. I suspect they were talking about you and your date at the time. If they were I already see how high calibre of a women you are. You seem to be very refined and diverse. That was jealousy. And if you're from Thailand I see why BM are attracted to you. People from Thailand have features in common with Afro-centric people (broad noses, bronze skin, etc.). Plantation better than Windsor Castle.... God save the Queen... ;-)

I've been to Morroco and I feel I should clarify for you the actual truth behind the Moors. The term Moor is at best a blanket statement to describe Muslims invading Spain. The racial make up of Morroco today is about 80/20 ArabBerber/blackBerber. One good look, the ability to communicate in Arabic (some) with the people and to understnad the culture and history first hand is worth a thousand articles. Morroco lies in NW Africa which as you must know does not necessarily imply that they were all black as most of North Africa from Morroco to Egypt has a great deal of Arab/Semetic blood. Also Berbers are not exactly Negroid either. The racial make up of Morroco according to Morrocans I met was Arab, Berber and black which meant that Berber and black were dissimilar. The word Berber comes from the Arabic Bar Bar and refers to any number of semite tribe in NW Africa west of Tripoli. They themselves were made up of Turag and Kabyle speaking semites. The Turags being quite dark and much more black and the Kabyles a bit fairer. I met several from each group and the ArabBerbers distinguished themselves as being distinct from the blacksBerbers and from thier appearance it seemed evident. If the theory of Dubois is accurate then the modern racial make up is a reflection of more ancient times in which case the majority of Muslims invading Spain were Semites with a minority of true Negroids. If you go to Morroco today you will find a racial spectrum that stretches from fair skinned Arabs to darker skinned Berbers very dark skinned blacks. Also Tariq ibn Zayid, who conquered Spain was of the Quresh clan of Meccan Arabs. Gibraltar means "the Rock of Tariq." The main army that invaded Spain was the 18,000 Ummayad cavalry known as the Firdaus who were the Arab horsemen and Camal riders. There were Berber soldiers within the invading Muslim army but they made up a portion as many in the army were also Syrian, Persians, Yemenese and Egyptian. Not the total nor even half was even Berber at all. It was infact a mutual effort by many races and thier accomplishments are to be shared. Unfortunately it was only the "Arab leaders" as you stated that made up the nobility of Ummayad Spain as was the trade mark of the Ummayad era (Arabs lording over all other non-Arab Muslims like kings). That even included exclusion of semetic Berbers who were treated as second class citizens since they were not of Meccan blood. The Berbers later seized power and then lost it again to the Arabs. Spain remained Ummayad till the end even in the wake of the Abbasid usurption which rendered control to non-Arab Muslims all over the world. Infact Muslim Ummayad Spaniards helped the Christian knight El Cid (from the Arabic Al-Shaid which means the leader)expell an Abbasid Muslim army which threatened to overun all of Spain. Ultimately Moorish Spain must have been racially quite mixed. But to say that the Moors were all black or all Arab or that Berbers are black is innaccurate at best. And in case you do not believe me go to Morocco.com click on culture and view some of the pictures of BerBer families who are both Semite and black.

P.S. African people can be Mohammedans and Saracens as both terms mean Muslim. But yes they were not Arabs but often mistaken for one.

P.P.S. I realize this post has nothing to do with the forum but I can't resist a hostory discussion.

I've been reading these posts for the past few weeks and I'm quite disappointed at the negativity in here. Everyone, lighten up! I appreciate the information about African Americans but can't we stop the arguing and focus more on the positive aspects of AsianFemale/BlackMale relationships?

If anyone wants to chat feel free to e-mail me.
