Nobody is pointing the finger here. At least not me. I realize people react negatively when someone is pointing the finger at them or their race like it's their fault. Blurb made a good point, we all benefit from females preference, but pretending like there isn't a preference is insulting and kinda stupid. Sure there's a preference. I'll be the first to benefit from being black, as I wouldn't blame a white dude from benefiting from that shit. All I'm saying is, from my observations, it's kinda easier out there for white dudes simply because the institution of racism still exist, subliminally or subcounciously or whatever. There are some dudes that like to pretend that it's an even playing field out there for everybody, and point out the fact that black dudes can get white/Asian girls too. But I ask you this, which group do you think is larger, white/Asians chicks who like white guys or white/Asians chicks who like black guys? If you're honest with yourself you'll see what I'm talking about. Not complaining, just pointing out the reality. Skin whitening creams are a huge industry in S.E. Asia. Having experienced this firsthand, no matter how much I explain to some girls i've dated from the Philippines or Vietnam that men actually VALUE that mocha brownskin tone they have, they furiously wipe it away with the whitening cream and wear umbrella's outside out of fear of getting dark and looking poor. They didn't have this complex before colonialization. White = beautiful, dark = ugly. That's just the way it is. When it comes to men, white = rich, successful, movie star, beautiful kids. Black = hip hop, athleticism, ugly features, cheating/raping men, etc. Marrying white = moving up. Marrying black = moving down. Emulating white = right. Emulating black = wrong. If I can keep it real, that's what it means to most of the world. I think it's hard for people who are not black to see that because from your perspective this doesn't make sense. You have never been treated that way and have never seen people get treated that way. It's illogical.
It's almost like me and the unemployed men my family. I'm in IT which means the recession has not hit me as hard. In fact, my pay has increased like 40% in the last 18 months. So when I go home and see men in my family out of work for 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, from my perspecitve this is crazy. I mean, I get offered jobs all the time, why don't they? I have to turn down offers because there's just not enough time in my schedule to work all the jobs. My dad tells me I'm lucky I chose to be in IT, because other industries haven't faired so well. I don't see it like that tho. I mean, surely if they just applied themselves more they could be just as fortunate as me right? All the industries are an equal playing field right? Sometimes you have to step back and take a look at something from another perspective to see what's really happening. And in the human case the privilage goes more deep. Privilage not just in monetary value, but in the entire system. Like the one guy was alluding to, it could be the Eurocentric sense of beauty on all the magazines and TV shows that brown skin Filipinas worship and want to emulate, it could be the fact that the top 3000 CEO's in America are all white because the last one's where white, it could be the history taught to us in our books. I may have generations of privilage I'm benefiting from, so how could I possibly see things any other way? From the eyes of the unprivilaged. In my world nothing can stop me from getting a job because I have so many choices and options, but my family members don't for whatever reason. So before I call them lazy cry baby's who just aren't trying hard enough I have to first understand their situation.
One of you guys mentioned Japan being obsessed with hip hop culture. Having lived in Japan I can tell you that is a very very small minority of people, and the fact that some of them like hip hop will not change the fact that they won't sit anywhere near you on the train, (most hot chicks) won't fuck foreigners, won't rent an apartment if a foreigner has lived there before, won't date your ex girlfriend because she had black dick in her, are genuinly terrified when you get on an elevator with them, and basically worship anything blonde and white on the planet. Don't believe me? Go to Japan and tell me what you see on the billboards being advertised. I saw more white people on display than Japanese people. And sometimes not even good looking white chicks, just average English teacher chicks who got modeling jobs in Japan just because they're blonde. Look at the classified section and tell me how many jobs ask for a white English teacher, and compare that to the ones that ask for a black one. Even more important, look at the dating adverts and count the ones looking for a SWM vs. the ones looking for a brother. For every J-girl I fucked there were about 10 of them who wouldn't give me the time of day because I wasn't a tall white boy. Again, I'm not complaining. It is what it is, and it makes me stronger. I'll make up for it in Sweden

Just don't ignore the truth like it doesn't exist. Are all Japanese ppl like this? No of course not. Are things getting better in Japan? Yes, in about 50 years I can imagine Japanese being somewhat use to having foreigners around. But it's going to take a more than Obama getting elected to prove to Japanese that America isn't full of blonde white people. Yes, some of them are genuienly surprised to know America has black people. Cracked me the hell up lol.
Anyway, one love.
