Mekhi Phifer Uses Party Favors for Wrist Wear

Posted by Bossip Staff

mekhiphifer3.jpg

Mekhi Phifer and wife Oni Phifer celebrated this weekend with a baby shower. Aww, they really look like they are in love and everything, but what the fu*k is up with Mekhi’s watch? That thing looks crazy as hell. Like one of those little bootleg “try to get the tiny silver ball in the holes” toy you used to get in your “loot bag” after a birthday party. Those loot bags used to be full of some bullshit for real.

  1. They do look like they are in love!

    I wish them the best! I also wish that was me! :P

    He is sexy as shit! His watch probably cost more than your office….BOSSIP! stop hating!


  2. oh yeah, FIRST!

  3. NAIS

    He is not sexy, and he totally shitted on Bird! Anyway his wife is pretty pregnant


  4. she’s not black either huh?

  5. kelis

    NTM, I was wondering the same thing. If you look at that last pic though, she looks like she may be mixed. Anywho, they look cute together.

  6. SWEETTEE215

    Naw, she look like she’s probably mixed, half asian, half black. I did’nt know he was married?!

  7. nono

    they seem happy good for them.


  8. bossip can you show us some sexy white boys… I need to get on the Y.t. bandwagon.

  9. persona

    I don’t think he’s cute. I don’t think his attitude is cute either. After he made reference to the fact that his ex-wife would not give him fellatio, in a magazine that his son will surely read, he just grew even more unattractive. As a matter of fact, I never thought Larenz Tate was cute either. Don Cheadle is sexy, old, and makes good movies, so he gets the attractive points.

  10. Monk

    CHICKEN and RICE combo… about to have a lil Chigger

  11. Smartie

    Hold up, Larenz Tate is short as Hell so how short can Mekhi and Don Cheadle be ?! Hollywierd got a bunch of Black midgets running around. Sad thing is they’re probably wearing lifts in their Shox too.

  12. Monk

    Persona ! Don Cheatem …come on girl you takin this dark skinned brotha thing to far…you gave him 6 points for complexion that 2 much home girl…on the 10 point scale.

    bossip can you show us some sexy white boys… I need to get on the Y.t. bandwagon.

    ______________

    silly rabbit…everyday white guys aren’t dropping white women to get with black ones (unless its the nerdy guys who aren’t getting laid either way). you can’t get on the white train if its not making any stops. lol @ you big sillies. i haven’t heard one peep from white [or any other] men about “black women killing it right now”

  14. Seghana

    Tsk tsk…..this is sad!!

  15. BB

    I second that post Sue. I’m a black man and I can safely say that black women are about to be on the endagered species list. I don’t have a problem with mixing it up but DAMN…these celebs hardly date or marry black chicks anymore.

    Have you ever seen Cheadle’s wife, she beiger than a pair of Gap Khakis. We need funding to combat this shit.

  16. BronxBrawler

    She must be related to Tiger Woods with teeth like that lmao

  17. lainy

    The brothers don’t marry the sisters because they claim the sisters don’t tolerate their crap.(being under cover bi etc.) Don’t hate on the women when you see us starting to date alot more of the other. I think M’s wife is mixed, but still no wonder sisters are turning gay.

  18. Pistons36

    that chick has one hell of a grill on her

  19. BronxBrawler

    @ Sue I co-sign your post black women will always be beautiful in my eyes!!!!

  20. ko

    LMAO @ bossip!!! Leave that boy alone. Ya’ll are wrong for clownin that watch but that was funny tho i aint gon lie.

  21. Flex

    Phifer looks like he’s carrying around some serious baby weight himself. Dude used to be in decent shape, but looks like he’s holding about 20 pounds of water. Oh well, he’s still a young knucka gettin’ paid.

  22. Sue

    why is it that every race of woman can find a good black man except black women? i guess it doesn’t have anything to do with black women themselves. ::shrug::

  23. Monk

    Thats a trip…I really can’t find it in my heart to give a damn if its’s black or white. I belive life is short and you should date who ever the hell you wish. hell I only date blackwomen not because there better-hell I can’t say, I don’t go there with white women. “I love sistas” but it’s ALL GOOD to me mix it up.


  24. SUE YOU ARE SO RIGHT/ I DONT THINK IT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH BLACK WOMEN ALTHOUGH THEY TRY TO MAKE IT SEEM LIKE IT. ASIAN WOMEN ARE HOOKING UP ALSO/ I THOUGHT THEY DIDNT LIKE BLACKS/ I GUESS ONLY BLACK MEN HUH.


  25. Ugh. I will keep my rebuttle to myself.

    Then again, maybe I won’t.

    Gabriel Aubrey…checkin for black girls

    …among other famous folk; however, in real life white men are checkin for sisters dear. Hate to break it to ya!

    Quite often the ones that have a Sue stashed at home.

  26. BB

    I do agree with the black women “don’t take no mess” theory, but why does it always have to resort to black men being on the DL? Black women need to stop demonizing black men in that way. The reason why black women are highly infected with aids is not primarily becasue of DL black men, but straight dudes who sleep around and women who like them RAW!

    Studies have shown that DL brothers are much more likely to wear condems than their str8 counterparts. I’m black and gay, I’m not on the DL and people can’t tell that I’m gay, should I tell them so that I’m not considered DL or undercover anymore. Not all gay men, black or white fall into the bent-wrist stereotype, but when we don’t we shouldn’t be labelled DL cus we don’t wear any gay identification.

  27. Sue

    can you not comprehend, dear? you gals don’t have access to Gabriel Aubreys. stop living your life through Halle Berry. no race of men who have options are lining up to save you black women from yourselves. you everyday black women might be able to seduce a white star trek nerd, but that’s about it, honey.

  28. Sue

    55% of black women have herpes. much less than the figures for anyone else. go figure. who’s to blame now? we don’t need you witches contaminating our men.

  29. Kel

    55% of women PERIOD have herpes! Do your research!

  30. Sue

    20% of white women have it. do yours.

  31. Anonychique

    White guys try to get at black chicks all the time.

    And I don’t know about these bogus statistics that was read on the side of a Kaboom cereal box.

    And lastly, that Asian bitch is ugly. Is that black lipliner???? What year is this? Is she Mexican?


  32. damn nobody want to date black girls no more….


  33. They look very happy, though… Regardless of their races…wow people get over that shit already.

    Asian and white bitches don’t have hard attitudes and know how to treat a nigga, who cares if you Black bitches have degrees, no one is checkin for that shit but a goddamn college or graduate school admissions officer

  35. STFU

    WTF is wrong with you people? The majority of black men still date black women and vice versa. You all need to get your heads out of the celebrity sand and go hang out with some NORMAL people.

    Also, any woman that complains about not being able to find a decent, hard-working black man is probably a) a whore on the low but trying to appear like she’s worth of marriage or b) looking for baller types that obviously don’t need you nearly as bad as you need them.

    The only real “issue” I see is guys in big cities having more variety and seizing upon that. Big deal! Some of my fellow sisters need to do some real reflection. How can you complain about the lack of decent men when you keep alowing men to shit on you and disrespect you. A man is only going to do what he is allowed to do. You can’t be fucking a man with no committment, being lazy about birth control, not taking care of your sexual health etc. and then expect some prince charming to come rescue you.

    I love my sisters but there is a group of us out here trying to hold it down but so many more carrying on like animals. You can live in denial all you want but i’ve seen some pretty disgusting females out there. But in ten years they’ll be compalining about not being ble to finda good man once they realize how important it is.

  36. STFU

    Asian and white bitches don’t have hard attitudes and know how to treat a nigga, who cares if you Black bitches have degrees, no one is checkin for that shit but a goddamn college or graduate school admissions officer

    Funny how you called them “bitches”. Goes to show where your head is at, brother. Sisters shouldn’t even be mad that ones like yourself choose to date outside, they’re probably better off for it. But since you seem to think that a woman’s education and ability to take care of herself is so unimportant, you’ll probably end up with some lazy (white or asian) woman that gets pregnant, fat and stops giving you that glorious head you’re some accustomed to. Any man that thinks it’s no big deal for a woman to be educated is just looking for a piece of lumber to lay on top of every night.

  37. 504okaay

    DAMN….I DIDN’T KNOW HE WASN’T WITH THE CHICK FROM THE SOUL FOOD SERIES ANYMORE…THEY MADE A CUTE COUPLE…OH WELL…GOOD LUCK WITH YA NEW FAMILY MEKHI !

  38. Lisa

    @MONK…….LMBAO!!!

  39. 504okaay

    P.S. HE DOES LOOK A LIL SWOLE STARTING TO LOOK LIKE CHRIS TUCKER IN THE FACE.

  40. Aphatty

    He was soooooo sexy in Crooklyn – but as others said above, his sexy took a nose dive with his comments about Melinda Williams. Homegirl looks happy now – but wait until she drops that baby and he starts saying the same shit about her.

    Ugly heart = Ugly dude.

    Plus FUTURE looks terrible in dreads -

  41. BigJim

    You are 100% correct. Sistas are infected with AIDS & other STD’s for that matter because Black women are simply more sexually active than women of other races a fact that embarasses them because Sistas have called White women Hoes for years. PBS ran a story about Nuns who are trying to stop unwanted pregnancies amongst young women. The one stat that stood out was that 74% of all African-American females 19 under are sexually active it does not take a rocket scientist to figure out that 9,10,11,12 year old Black girls are included in that 74%. Black women are 4 times more likely to get an abortion as women and in some parts of this country over 80% of the kids born to Sistas are born out of wedlock & in some Southern states Black women make up the majority of Syphillis cases.

    Bottomline I been in Bossip over a year saying the same thing over & over Sistas are simply trying to cover their sexually irresponsibility by blaming Brothas on the “Down Low” for their high AIDS infection rate when in fact it’s is more a result of how many Sistas live their live’s meaning many sex partners both male & female and no protection from AIDS or pregnancies. Sistas lead the U.S. in HIV infections,abortions,and unwanted pregnancies which all point to sexual irresponsibility amongst Black women not an evil plot by Gay Black males to destroy Saintly & Angelic Sistas.

    Raise your standards ladies and cut the crap because nobody’s buying it.

  42. fat boy

    DAMN these hollywood niggaz dont got no love for black women damn shame.


  43. DAAAAYYYUUUMMM!

    MEKHI PHIFER LOOK “PREGNANT” HIS DAMN SELF!

    HIS FACE IS BLOATED AS HELL! YUK!

  44. BB

    Big Jim,

    Nowhere in my rant did I say black women were more sexually active than any other race. I didn’t arm myself with that info, so therefore I can’t speak authoritatively on the subject. However, I did say in the sexual arena “sistas” need to ensure that a “brotha” will wrap-it-up. Cus a dude can’t give you aids unless you give him permission to.

  45. BigJim

    BB

    Well I did say that Sistas are more sexually active because it’s true.

  46. persona

    Don Cheadle is a great actor, which is why his points look good. And, he appears to be a gentleman.


  47. These dumb niggas sure don’t believe in Black babies do they?

  48. mzc2u

    Dam Mekhi looks fat as hell and old, he did take a nose dive when he said those comments about his ex-wife, his current wife looks like shes asian and black, they may have a cute baby though.

  49. Vanessa

    The fact is that the majority of black men (eve celebrities) are married to black women.

    An example of this is seen in the NBA. The media will focus on the Kobe Bryants and Charles Barkleys who aren’t married to black women, when the VAST, and I mean VAST majority of these married players are married/dating black women including Shaq, Alonzo, Dwyane Wade, Ben Wallace, LeBron James’ girlfriend Savannah is black, Gary Payton, Eric Snow, RIP Hamilton’s girlfriend is black, and the list goes on.

    Interracial dating is not even one tenth the threat as violence, drugs and unemployment to the black community.

    BTW there are plenty of non black males, who would love to date black women and find them attractive. It is usually the black women who are holding a candle for black men.

    Stop the propaganda, which is causing some black women to feel insecure and unwanted.

  50. Vanessa

    The NBA wives/girlfriends of players listed below look like everyday sistas you see at work, in your neighborhoods. The only difference is they may be wearing better weaves and better make-up, and these brothas who snatched them up make MILLIONS playing ball and filling up stadiums. Ron Artest

    Ben Wallace

    Dwyane Wade

    Eric Snow

    Doug Christie

    Vince Carter

    LeBron James

    Robert Horry

    Jim Jackson

    Allen Iverson

    Antawn Jameson

    Gary Payton

    But the media will never show you that. They don’t make money showing black love. They make money sensationalizing Kobe Bryant, his white/latina wife, and his alleged rape of a white girl in Colorado. That sells papers and drives up Neilsen ratings and web site hits.

    Getting pissed about seeing Tyrone with Becky isn’t going to solve our unemployment issue, lack of socio-economic power, HIV rates, lack of proper education and violence.

    Yes we know that quite a number of black men are dating and marrying interracially, but the fastest growing interracial relationship is between the black woman and the white man. The numbers are still very low, but it is growing. The media and the hiring practices of corporate America are pushing for this to happen.

    Face it, just because a brotha isn’t dating YOU or your friends, it doesn’t always mean that he hates black women!

  51. jazzyphile

    Sounds strange to some of you lady knuckleheads, but the vast majority of Balck men are with or married to Black women!

  52. Mahogany

    Um who knows the watch might be really high tech geigh ass bossip queens…

    I’m sure it’s probably worth a lot and if it’s not, I’m sure he can afford a tag huer (sp) or cartier.

  53. div

    I’m still debating whether this “sue” character is white or just playing devil’s advocate.

    There is nothing to glorify about white men or women, trust. If you haven’t noticed yet, maybe you should read a few more posts in the swirl to add to your basis of knowledge. It is far too common that the weak rationale for a non-black woman is because she isn’t “hard like a black woman”. Allow me to translate = she’s spineless and submissive. Or perhaps a trophy.

    So as I walk down the street past another white man rocking a fucked up attempt at locks, reading another story about white socialites who are sexually promiscuous, substance-abusing, children-neglecting and trying to avoid the “girls gone wild” camera, you should tend to those of your race who find it suitable to share their crystal meth habits with their kids, are filling up their aluminum-sided trailers with kids in the backwoods, or are spending their fortunes trying to tan their skin darker, make their lips fuller, make their figures curvier, make their eye lashes thicker, and all in all, tap into the essence of what a black woman already possesses.

    Nothing’s wrong with change. Nothing’s wrong with choice. Health is a concern to everyone, that’s nothing exclusive. But to seriously think that you pose that deep of a threat is a dream. Mekhi Phifer, and Taye Diggs for that matter, aren’t exactly top catches. And those same white women are lining up in country clubs and spas with a full face of make up on the daily, trying to think up ways to rekindle their marriage as their husbands lose interest.

    “we don’t need you witches contaminating our men.” -sounds very early 1900’s. maybe you should find a new outlet to vent this resentment. Research the newest surgical enhancement, perhaps..

    SOMETHING FROM A BLOG SOMEWHERE.

    A White women’s opinion of black women & a brother’s response.

    Please take a moment and read this. Pretty Deep! Thumbs up to this black man..

    Enjoy.

    It seems that an article was written to Sister 2 Sister magazine by a Caucasian woman who requested a response from black men. I’m so glad she got what she asked for (and more) !!!

    Dear Jamie:

    I’m sorry but I would like to challenge some of your Black male readers.

    I am a White female who is engaged to a Black male-good-looking, educated and loving. I just don’t understand a lot of Black female’s attitudes about our relationship.

    My man decided he wanted me because the pickings amongst Black women were slim to none. As he said they were either too fat, too loud, too mean, too argumentative, too needy, too materialistic or carrying too much excess baggage.

    Before I became engaged, whenever I went out I was constantly approached by Black men, willing to wine and dine me and give me the world. If Black women are so up in arms about us being with their men, why don’t they look at themselves and make some changes.

    I am tired of the dirty looks I get and snide remarks when we’re out in public. I would like to hear from some Black men about why we are so appealing and coveted by them.

    Bryant Gumbel just left his wife of 26 years for one of us Charles Barkley, Scottie Pippen, the model Tyson Beckford, Montell Williams, Quincy Jones, James Earl Jones, Harry Belafonte, Sydney Poitier, Kofi Anan, Cuba Gooding Jr., Don Cornelius, Berry Gordy, Billy Blanks, Larry Fishburne, Wesley Snipes….

    I could go on and on. But, right now, I’m a little angry and that is why I wrote this so hurriedly. Don’t be mad with us White women because so many of your men want us. Get your acts together and learn from us and we may lead you to treat your men better. If I’m wrong, Black men, let me know.

    Disgusted White Girl, Somewhere in VA

    RESPONSE

    Dear Jamie:

    I would like to respond to the letter written by A Disgusted White Girl.

    Let me start by saying that I am a 28-year old black man. I graduated from one of the most prestigious universities in Atlanta , Georgia with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Management. I have a good job at a major corporation and have recently purchased a house. So, I consider myself to be among the ranks of successful black men.

    I will not use my precious time to slander white people. I just want to set the record straight of why black men date white women. Back in the day, one of the biggest reasons why black men dated white women was because they were considered easy.

    The black girls in my neighborhood were raised in the church. They were very strict about when they lost their virginity and who they lost it to. Because of our impatience to wait, brothers would look for someone who would give it up easy without too much hassle. So, they turned to the white girls.

    Nowadays, in my opinion, a lot of brothers date white women because they are docile and easy to control. A lot of black men, because of insecurities, fears, and overall weaknesses, have become intimidated by the strength of our black women. We are afraid that our woman will be more successful than us, make more money than us, drive nicer cars and own bigger houses. Because of this fear, many black men look for a more docile woman. Someone we can control.

    I have talked to numerous black men and they continuously comment on how easy it is to control and walk over their white women. I just want to set the record straight. I want A Disgusted White Girl to know that not all successful black men date white women.

    Brothers like Ahmad Rashad, Denzel Washington, Michael Jordan, Morris Chestnut, Will Smith, Blair Underwood, Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds, Samuel L. Jackson, and Chris Rock all married strong black women And, to flip the script, there are numerous white men, in and out of the spot light, who openly or secretly desire black women over white women. Ted Danson, Robert DeNiro, and David Bowie to name a few.

    I just don’t want a disgusted white girl to be misinformed Stop thinking that because you are white that you are some type of goddess. Remember, when black Egyptian Queens like Hatsepshut and Nitorcris were ruling Dynasties and armies of men in Egypt, you were over in the caves of Europe eating raw meat and beating each other over the head with clubs. Read your history!

    It was the black woman that taught you how to cook and season your food. It was the black woman that taught you how to raise your children. It was black women who were breast feeding and raising your babies during slavery.

    It is the black woman that had to endure watching their fathers, husbands, and children beaten, killed, and thrown in jail. Black women were born with two strikes against them: being black and being a woman. And, through all this, Still They Rise!

    It is because of the black women’s strength, elegance, power, love and beauty that I could> never> date anyone except my black Queen. It is not just the outer beauty that captivates and draws me to them. It is not the fact that they come in all shapes, sizes, colors and shades that I love them.

    Their inner beauty is what I find most appealing about black women. Their strong spirit, loving and nurturing souls, their integrity, their ability to overcome great obstacles, their willingness to stand for what they believe in, and their determination to succeed and reach their highest potential while enduring great pain and suffering is why I have fallen in love with black women.

    I honestly believe that your anger is geared more toward jealousy and envy more so than snotty looks. If this were not so, then why do you continuously go to tanning salons to darken your skin? If you are so proud to be white, then why don’t you just be happy with your pale skin? Why do you continue to inject your lips, hips, and breasts with unnatural and dangerous substances so you can look fuller and more voluptuous?

    I think that your anger is really a result of you wanting to have what the black woman has.

    BOTTOM LINE: If I were looking for a docile woman, someone I can walk over and control, I would give you a call. But, unfortunately, I am looking for a Virtuous Woman. Someone that can be a good wife and mother to my children.

    Someone who can be my best friend and understands my struggles. I am looking for a soul mate. I am looking for a sister and; unfortunately, you do not and CANNOT fit the bill.

    No offense taken, none given.

    Signed, Black Royalty

  55. OH NO!

    omg! his wife looks so good with taht satin lookalike number on.

    and for goodness sake, his wife is NOT white!! she is asian, another woman of color!!!!

  56. AND...

    @BigJim

    Until you have spoken with every black woman on this planet SHUT THE FUCK UP about black women being more sexually active. That’s ignorant shit.

  57. AND...

    @STFU

    “WTF is wrong with you people? The majority of black men still date black women and vice versa.”

    You are right. Interracial relationship are not the majority. The media has brain washed these people into believeing this bs.

  58. div

    As an afterthought, maybe it’s me, but it seems that a lot more white men are dropping white women for women of color than black men are flocking to white women over black. you might not be as prized as you think. just an observation…

  59. AND...

    I don’t see what the big deal is really. If you are blessed enough to find someone who loves you despite all the flaws that you have then what difference does it make what race they are? I just think people get too caught up in color.

  60. tired

    Ok…why cant a picture of a mixed couple be put up without folks turning it into a who’s better than who fight??

    AS A BLACK WOMAN i am the first to say WE ALL ARE NOT STRONG!!!!!!!! That whole “SISTAS DONT TAKE NO MESS” ATTITUDE IS A FAKE!! I know so many sistas that are being neglected, taken to the bank and otherwise just like any damn body else. Quit hiding behind that damn word. Its like who the hell we/yall tryin to convince??? Because aint nobody else buying it. They just see attitudes and bullshit and it aint just other races seeing it, it our own people. so shut the fuck up. not only that, but non black women aint the only ones going downtown. this stereo-typing bull is old already. I dont want nobody stereotyping me as a loud mouthed, attitude having hoochie so I aint going to stereotype other folks. grow up. They are a good looking couple. she’s beautiful and bout to have HIS baby. grow up!!!

  61. HF

    Oh $**+, they done gone and “Tayed” Mekhi now!

    “stop living your life through Halle Berry” -Sue

    What? Here on Bossip that’s considered sacrilige! Ironic isn’t it, that a lot of these women worship and live vicariously through Halle, but bemoan the same IR union that sired her 2 begin with. It’s like “We heart u Halle, but yo’ daddy ain’t $**+!!!!”

    “WTF is wrong with you people? The majority of black men still date black women and vice versa. You all need to get your heads out of the celebrity sand and go hang out with some NORMAL people.” -STFU

    Co-sign with a side of fries! I keep sayin 2 these folks tht if u got the idea that black love is dead, then u need to get off tha computer, quit celebrity watchin’, and get back out in2 the real world.

    3rd, Mekhi’s wife is OBVIOUSLY black and asian. How is it that ur beloved Halle…who is also mixed….is considered a sista pass, yet, this lady isn’t?

    The hypocrisy and lack of common sense never ceases to amaze me.

  62. HF

    Correction: How is it that ur beloved Halle…who is also mixed….is considered a sista and gets a pass, yet, this lady isn’t?

    I don’t want none of u doctors correcting my thesis.

  63. Sue

    ^^^ because black women are selfish and illogical

  64. Miss V.I.P.

    IMO I dont think she is black but maybe filipino I have several filipino coworkers/friends and they are brown (darker than me) with broader noses etc, Im mixed mexican and black but i could be wrong just my observation, whatever the case I wish them the best, but karma is a mug Mekhi u said all those nasty things about Melinda and now u have another pregnant wife on your hands hopefully his previous selfish way of thinking is a thing of the past and he has matured a little

  65. ewok

    i hope he treats her better than Melinda (Bird from Soulfood series)I still have not gotten over the foul article where he ripped her for not being sexy anymore, how his family is full of male sperm donors. i lost so much respect for dude, really. so good luck Kenunu!

  66. brownbarbie

    Sue:

    I’m a black woman who is dating the white guy everyone wanted. Not to brag or to say that you white people are better than anyone else. But just to say that more white men these days are choosing to date black women. And that black women always have been and still are considered desireable and beautiful by many of the white men I know at least. They seem to be getting tired of the bubble gum lollipop valley girl BS they get from you white women. Not making it up. Just what I was told.

  67. brownbarbie

    By the way, I want Mekhi’s wife’s dress! That is serious!

  68. AND...

    @ brownbarbie

    Love the name.


  69. Why is his wife wearing black eyeliner around her lips? You are not in Queens and this is not 1985.

  70. Sean

    dope, being in cali the average person i see is mixed or in a interracial relationship. It doesnt matter what race you get with anyways. just enjoy life! point blank

  71. Everwrite

    @Sue

    Obiviously you must ignorant as is stupid. Franklin I could give a shit about who black men date. But is your perspective of black women in general is of past experiences or is is homegrown. You have not met everysingle black woman in American have not viewed or ask for her thoughts of black men or men in general. So how can you make a generalization of every black women being herpes infected, stupid and/or illogial? And your speak of ignorance n arogance more than truth n fact. If Black women were bombared on tv every single day since the 40’s you will have that mindset of some white women want to be like black women. And where do you think black men come from? The black women’s womb inserted by a sperm of a black man.

  72. Kendall

    Nowadays, in my opinion, a lot of brothers date white women because they are docile and easy to control. A lot of black men, because of insecurities, fears, and overall weaknesses, have become intimidated by the strength of our black women. We are afraid that our woman will be more successful than us, make more money than us, drive nicer cars and own bigger houses. Because of this fear, many black men look for a more docile woman. Someone we can control.

    ^^^^^^^ that is the damn near the EXACT same thing Polow ( King of all white girls) said!!!! and i have heard that many times…

    I know right. It’s cool though. Every strong person needs balance. If some people need to be with someone weaker than they are to feel strong more power to them. When the shit hits the fan tho’ don’t be surprised when that weak person is no where to be found…regardless of race.

  74. the truth

    men will tap what is available. should a brother pass up some non black ass for a ’cause’ 95% of people ain’t a part of? how many of you sistahs still straighten your hair? weave it up? how many you brothers are n.o.i., 5%, etc. back in the days i was taking nuff of my people to task for stuff like that. while you throw rocks, brother and sistah cosmicblacklove will drop a mountain on you.

    i love my sistahs and my people but me and my dick see things differently. where i’m political it just wants to put on a latex jacket and dive into some sugar walls. it’s not that deep. just a typical horny dude.

    as far as this couple, how is it effecting you? i mean really?

  75. HF

    Once again hypocrisy abounds:

    A lot of BW get their panties ruffled when they r stereotyped as loud, obnoxious, overweight and having bad attitudes. Yet, many have no problem stereotyping white women as weak, easy to control, and skanky, thus, the reason y some bruthaz desire them, right?

    Y do people who generalize hate being generalized?

    Y do people who live in glass houses insist on throwing stones?

    tsk…tsk….

  78. Kiki

    I don’t care about their races. I’m more concerned w/the visual assault I’ve suffered as a result of that dark lip liner! WTH – I mean really sweetie, go with a nude lip OR line the lip w/the same color as your gloss/lipstick. Geeze!!! If you’re going to make a celebrity site, come correct.

  79. STFU

    Once again some of you people need to hang around more positive black folks and stay off the internet. the ‘net is great and you can find out a lot of information that was once unavailable but seriously, it makes it so that people begin to think that what they read on the internet is the gospel truth.

    Black people are doing their thing all over the world – as are white people and other ethnicties. people date, marry, have sex, fall in love, etc. all day every day whether you approve of it or not. people need to jsut live their lives and see for themselves what the dating world is like. so many people get psyched out by rumors and stories and statistics. as far as black women go, some of y’all need to realize that ALL men want a woman that is confident in herself (truly ocnfident, not that fake-ass insecurity maksed as confidence) with morals (no whoring around) attractive (sorry, but that spare tire has got to go!) and a good mother and example for kids (or potential kids). None of these ideas are terrible or that hard to handle. Now, if for some reason you think you’re perfect just the way you are and can’t stand to hear about yourself, you’re probably one of those many women that complains about not having a man.

    As far as men go, stop believing women when they say they’re on birth control. Don’t be lazy and protect yourself. Having a child with someone locks you together FOR LIFE. Also, don’t be intimidated by a woman who is successful but if she’s the type to throw it in your face, drop her like a hot potato because nothing you do wil ever be good enough for her.

    The end!

  80. Akimbo

    Ummm…No one is seriously complaining about Mekhi Phifer not being with a (fully) black woman, right?

    After seeing the way he dogged Malinda Williams for not partying and giving him sufficient head, I don’t care who takes him! He could shack up with a dog for all I care!

  81. The Real Essence 1

    Akimbo said: “After seeing the way he dogged Malinda Williams for not partying and giving him sufficient head, I don’t care who takes him! He could shack up with a dog for all I care”

    I second that! Black men are FREAKS PERVS & Love the DL lifestyle anyway so he’s chosen a woman who more than likely fits his lifestyle choices. This so called “woman” looks like a trannie in the face & Mekhi looks like a bloated bulldog so they compliment each other.

  82. Nikky

    Ain’t nothing about that woman black. She is fillipino. Sue, we have explained to you enough that black women are not only prized by black men, but whites, asians and most definitely hispanic. In Africa, the growing union between asian males and black females couples is getting huge. The most successful white males in the entertainment and upper crust industry are either dating/married to black women… including George Lucas and the prince of Monaco. White woman, please. There are website dedicated to how frustrated the white man is with the lot of you. Hell, the asian woman is your biggest competition. Now go join your KKK rally, but before you do… make sure to dislodge your toungue ring from the black man’s cock you’re sucking,mmmkay? We know thats what you do best.

    Most of the black women who catch AIDS, believe or not, did get it from DL men, or men who travel abroad for sex. It doesn’t mean its still not our fault, though. Women, wear condoms.

    Also, white people do NOT report STDS or abortions, keep that in mind. If the truth ever got out about how many white women had abortions… lord have mercy. Plus, white women are always finding ways to get pregnant young, and white men (in fear of being labeled “black” or “ghetto”) run out and marry them like fools,because they do not value marriage. I go to school at a PWI, and white men should be very afraid. If they knew how these heffas were plotting to lay up on their asses and not work… hmph! And, molestation, rape and incest has played a big part in the connundrum that is that black community, and it has been that way forever. So, just a little food for though.

    Besides, if the rumor about him dogging Melinda Williams is true, then he needs to move to a non-black woman. We need to stop supporting dogs as a badge of blackness. Ladies, the pigment on your skin dictates your race, not who you date.

  83. Nikky

    And yes, they do make condoms for women. Either check them out or carry one for the guy when you meet up.

    lawd, i can’t even summon the eye power to sift thru all the comments, but here a few things about mekhi’s girl…she is not filipino, she is thai, she has dated black guys since high school and most (if not all) her girl-friends are black.

  86. JC

    She’s not cute at all, but he seems to really love her. Her dress/top is cute though. My girl back in the day f*cked him, she said he was very passionate, he was alright package wise.

  87. TexasDude

    Are they married , or just engaged?

    If she’s married, why is she only wearing an engagement ring?

  88. Auntie

    There is entirely too much self-hate going on. GODS says to marry for no other reason but love. I am really tired of this whole black men dating white women, who really cares. Sistas we should stop trying to figure out why black men prefer white women over black women. We need to love and embrace ourselves and stop looking for any man to validate us. And I am tired of all this “strong black women” crap. Women period are often put in situation where we have no choice but to endure, especially when men refuse to do right. The bottom line date and marry whomever you choose. You only have one life to live and should live each day like it’s your last. Mekhi and his beautiful wife look very happy together and that’s all that really matters.

  89. nahnah

    DEAR GULLIBLE BLACK PEOPLE:

    The majority of black men are with black women, so enough!!! The heavy promotion of ‘interracial’ couples is another way to add fuel to the fire and create a division amongst black people. This is a classic example of “divide and conquer”, and it’s a shame that you people are falling for it.

    Mekhi is a grown ass man who will do whatever the fuck he wants regardless. He has the right to date whomever he want, and that’s what he’s doing. The fact is, people are people, and if he’s genuinely into her, then why the fuss?

    The thing is Hollywood has a long history of racism, and promoting fair skinned women as the epitome of beauty, therefore it’s hard to decipher the genuine black man from the self-hating negro, but why bother? If Mekhi or any other black man in Hollywood or elsewhere have self-hate issues, then why would any black woman find that attractive?

    Seriously, don’t we have better things to worry about, or are we going to remain pawns for “the man”?.

    The folks in the media are making tons of money off our outright ignorance and stupidity, and I seriously don’t see what’s so “strong” about that.

    When will black people shut the fuck up and join the game before it’s too late?


  90. @ HF–

    I really don’t have a problem understanding your views but they always seem to be a little one sided. Almost reminds me of Big Jim. YOU can throw stones but it seems to me as if you need windex to clean not your windows but your home!

    “Please don’t break the perverbial mirror of self-recognization once you muster up the courage to look”. It’ll bring 7 yearts of bad luck!!!!

  91. nahnah

    Oh and that “strong black woman” crap is simply a term invented by black women to hide the deeply ingrained insecurities.

    Not all black women are strong, and not all white/asian/hispanic women are weak. Why the stupid stereotypes and generalizations?

  92. Tommy

    Gees, not of these brothers can find themself a sister??? Every girl the with you have to go what is she? half balck, half white, half this, have that? Coincidence you say? I don’t think so!!!!!

    hahahahahahaha @ the post above me!

  94. Amused

    “Disgusted White Girl” stated that black men turn to interracial relationships because they find many black women to be “too fat,” among other things. That’s pretty ironic, considering that the BBW party scene is absolutely filled with black men who come in droves to latch onto obese white women.

  95. Triple XXX

    Here we go again. Black v. White. the man is happy with his wife, who cares her color? The same people jumping on his case are up there praising Halle. This race crap is old. If you want some YT boys then go to a site that features them and shut the f**k up.

    Sue, I think white trash is selfish and illogical. How do you explain a married woman driving 900 miles in diapers to do away with her lover’s new girl? She had already broken up his first marriage and thought nothing of trying to kill a single woman. This ho didn’t think about her own children or her marriage. Now that’s selfish…and murderous too.

  103. kigali

    Big Jim.

    I was wondering what happened to you. I guess you and your ilk got back control of the insane asylum.

    You would sound a lot more credible if you also included in your rant that black men infect black women with STD’s and if 80% of black women are giving birth to children out of wedlock, 80% of black men are creating children out of wedlock. If over 75% of black females under the age of 19 are having sex they are having sex with 75% of black males under the age of 19. Black men are also not protecting themselves. Or are these Amazonian black women, forcing men to not use condoms? Sexual irresponsibility is truly a two way street in most cases.

    But continue to give black men cover. You do them a great service.

    But in spite of all the grim statistics you trot out to denigrate black women, we still manage to be better educated and have lower rates of incarceration all the while having sex at 9, getting an STD at 10 giving birth at 11, and having an abortion at 12. Whats the brothas excuse again? Oh right those pesky black women.

    Lets be a bit honest Big Jim, all the filipino women who will have you couldnt get a white man to sponsor her visa application. How often do you see black men with Chinese, Japanese or Korean women who are overwheliming successful educationally, and economically? No, you guys just hook up with those Asain women of the Pacific Rim looking for a one way ticket to the U.S. and a green card. As for the kind of white women you find yourself with, well… check Montel Williams and O.J. Simpson.

  104. kigali

    Big Jim,

    Pardon me sweet heart, not the Pacific Rim but South East Asia. In any event, you get my point.

  105. Girl

    I think she is Thai, and frankly, I feel sorry for her. Not only is she tore up and knocked up, but I know for a fact that he cheated on her with one of my friends (who had no idea he had a girlfriend) a while ago. She was pretty hurt when she found out. Didn’t he do the same thing with Malinda? Knock her up, marry her, then treat her like crap and cheat on her? Yeah, good luck with that Oni. Hire a private eye and keep tabs on that man.

    I am saddened at how BJ could say that Black women are the cause for all these diseases being spread. The bottom line is where protection falls. If you dont wear protection, be prepared to lie in the bed of broken glass you have made for yourself. Black women are not the only ones having sex. And surely not at a young age either. Diseases arent selective, they can only go where they can. And no color knows who does/doesnt carry a virus/disease. Please grow up. Please, Big Jim, if you are Black, please dont have a daughter……..I would have surely hated if my father thought like this or even expressed himself like this. I dont fit into your description of having a child young, or having abortions or diseases, but what you are saying is not representative of Black women at all. It is very very sad actually..


  112. “Getting pissed about seeing Tyrone with Becky isn’t going to solve our unemployment issue, lack of socio-economic power, HIV rates, lack of proper education and violence.

    Yes we know that quite a number of black men are dating and marrying interracially, but the fastest growing interracial relationship is between the black woman and the white man. The numbers are still very low, but it is growing. The media and the hiring practices of corporate America are pushing for this to happen.

    Face it, just because a brotha isn’t dating YOU or your friends, it doesn’t always mean that he hates black women!–”Vanessa

    My list above of Black Woman and White Men married or in an IR relationship says it all

    Plus Garcelle Beauvais(Fancy)Jamie Foxx Show) is pregnant right now with her White husband


  115. “First of all there are plenty Black woman celebrities dating WHITE MEN

    My list above of Black Woman and White Men married or in an IR relationship says it all”–Flatbush

    —————————————–

    OK, 85 black female “celebrities” out of several hundred are in or have previously been in IR relationships. Although, I think you should drop some, like Rosario Dawson and Traci Bingham, from the list because they do not identify as black. For every one of the “cross-daters” you listed, I could list six to ten other black women (Angela Bassett, Aretha Franklin, Anita Baker, Whitney Houston,Beyonce, Toni Braxton, Florence Joyner, Laila Ali, Condoleeza Rice (yes, believe it or not, she prefers to date brothers), Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, etc.,etc.

    The truth of the matter is that most black women do not find white men even remotely attractive, whether it’s sexually, physically, or culturally.

    Another thing you have to realize is that celebrity relationships are often for publicity or career advancement. One of the sisters on your list, Lena Horne, flat out said that she would have preferred to marry a black man but a white man could get her into performance venues that a black man couldn’t.


  116. Left out part of the sentence. It should have read:

    I could list six to ten other black women (Angela Bassett, Aretha Franklin, Anita Baker, Whitney Houston,Beyonce, Toni Braxton, Florence Joyner, Laila Ali, Condoleeza Rice (yes, believe it or not, she prefers to date brothers), Mary J.

    I dont know what the hell sue is talking about i’m married to a white man and he’s fine as hell, not a star trek nerd!!!

  118. Its6amHoGetOut

    See hoes, Mekhi is smart he has a 3/4 asian 1/4 black fine ass bitch just like me (mine is 1/2 asian 1/2 black), and dont think for a second she aint out there getting money “WITH” her man. Like i said before, you hoes better step up your game or get left behind because we damn sure aint waiting on your asses! 6am never wrong!


  119. No time to read all ur comments(i shed tears) but i was thinkin wat Kelis thought, she looks “Asian”, soz, we call it Chinese if ur not bein PC and Oriental if u r in da UK. Anywhos, she looks mixed, its da lips lol. But much as it generally disappoints me to see Black male stars out with non-black partners, or they GOTTA b mixed at a push(check it), they do look genuinely happy, so u love sum1 for them and not dating outside of ur race for “reasons” such as:upgrading, they look better/blacks are ugly,less stress,more control, then good for u!

    Damn, gotta go back to work now ppl, laters!!

  120. Whookidd

    She is malaysian. Not mixed with black or anything. Just her style make her look black. I seen a lot of asian dress like a black woman and look black. Look at kim lee simmons. Asians do like Black men. They just dont show it. Before they didnt because they are afraid of how physically strong black men are and they skin tone. But things have changed and they love big strong black men. Cant blame them for not liking blacks at first because they men look weak. White men dont look strong at all, they dont look weak either but in the middle.

    6am is a ho

  123. Roz

    I doubt if 6am is with any woman except his “hand”. Many black men have “fantasy” women but nothing in real life. Most want women to “carry” them and it gets old after a while. This is why it’s better to push them out the door…now rather than later.

  124. Triple XXX

    This is ridiculous. Why so concern about who marries who? Most people are 3Xs more likely to date outside their race than marry. So who dates who is of little consequence. If you take out the daters only like Bill Maher and George Lucas your list is considerably smaller. Even at its current length it actually shows how little black women and white interract. Some of the ‘couples’ on the list are now divorced, some are from nonAmericans. Considering the black women have more contact with white men then black men have with white women, the question becomes why are black men more likely to talk to women of other color than white men are? Everyone is putting the onus on black women to ask out the man. What about the man asking the woman? That is why the numbers are so skewed.

    I personally think that whites in general are scared off by so much black infighting. They don’t want to be a part of it. We must remember that as human beings there is not much difference in how men and women of any color acts. The fact that so many couples on your list are not together anymore proves that point. Being proud of our heritage does not mean we base who we are by how many colors we date. It by the quality of our choices.

    BTW Dina Ruiz in the Clint Eastwood marriage is listed as Latina not black.

    Kimora Lee Simons is half black. I’m from her old neighborhood.

    “Even at its current length it actually shows how little black women and white interract. Some of the ‘couples’ on the list are now divorced, some are from nonAmericans”

    Tripple XXX

    What was Flatbush supposed to do, list every BF/WM couples ever united? It’s just a list, no more, no less. If anything, that list was posted to counter Sue’s remark about what type of white men would be attracted to black women . I was wondering why people were initially agreeing with her. I knew she had an agenda from the start. BM/WF couples do divorce and separate, you know, but you could say that about any couple intraracial or otherwise.

    “I personally think that whites in general are scared off by so much black infighting.”

    Infighting among black people isn’t any worse than infighting among whites. Whites have casts and cliques, liberals, conservatives, and infighting as well. There’s this real pervasive attitude around here that whites/non-blacks are the solution to everything.

    “Considering the black women have more contact with white men then black men have with white women, the question becomes why are black men more likely to talk to women of other color than white men are?”

    I don’t know about that. I don’t think black men aren’t anymore likely to date interracially than white men. Though I am not certain (I haven’t done this type of research) but I think white men have the highest rate of interracial marriage. I also think that the numbers of WM/BF couples/marriages are skewered for a lot of reasons that range from everything to the media’s portrayal of black women to black women often being socialized to date intra-racially for the sake of the “black community.”

    “Being proud of our heritage does not mean we base who we are by how many colors we date. It by the quality of our choices.”

    I don’t know if I agree with that either. In fact, I don’t agree with that all. To me that’s a little optimistic, pollyanna-ish even. Race often plays a role in the perception of people (Surprise, Surprise). All you have to do is read some of these threads and the stereotypes attached to black women in particular in relation to white/non-black women. Race is often a status marker. So to suggest that race plays no role in deciding whom to date or marry is naive.

  127. ilish

    i meant, I don’t think black men are more likely to date interracially than white men.

Not clean. But not all of us are like that, or whateva negative u wanna put on us.

    Im not sayin iv never made mistakes or dun sum stupid shit myself but this whole “put Black women down” thing has got to stop. Many Black men do sum fuckrees too but i aint gonna give up on them completely. Cos there are good Black men out there. So ppl shud try and take it as a learning curve to stop generalising all the time. Not all non-black women are easy to control or get along with and Black women hard/difficult etc. Note how all this generalising/bad talk is comin from US, black ppl, goin against each otha. Black men need to love their sisters more and if Black women do find it hard to meet good Black men den dont despair, ul meet sum1 in or out of ur race, cos men of all races do find us attractive. Some of us simply need a better mind-set on ourselves and others and we’ll be ok.

Black people represent more “new” AIDS cases – cuz y’all white folks were burning up the charts since the 80’s! You hide behind these chats and say things you would NEVER have the guts to say out loud. So you all who are shittin on black women tell me how is it that Beyonce made the prettiest woman list on every magazine from King to Rolling Stone to Vibe! Its no secret that white men LOOOOOOOOVE women of color. Its just that they can’t admit it around their other white ass friends for fear of rediculous comments like the ones here. All y’all need to get a medical journal and get your FACTS straight and ask yourself why you are on a BLACK website reading OUR news everyday. Get a fuckin clue, get a backbone so you can pop that mess in front of a live person, and get on the bandwagon that all the young white kids are on…you can hate on Black culture all you want (and there are negative things about it) but thats why all them middle class soccor moms are mad at rap!

    I am studying Forensic Psychology and I do internships and research. Don’t believe the hype.. HIV is a problem in Poor neighborhoods. Of course it affects the black community more because of Economics and we also have a cultural problem with DL men. Also the Prison system breeds HIV. The MAN has figured out a way to destroy us.

    Again, people from lower economic background would be more likely to have more HIV, but it affects every aspect of American society: homosexuals, heterosexuals, especially drug users.

    No one is bringing up the fact that the Midwest is rampant with STDS from drug use and prostitution. Typical American hypocrisy..

    Black women ARE NOT more promiscuous than white females. In fact, black women cheat the least on their spouses/boyfriends. There are a lot of single black women out there.

    Part of the problem black women have a hard time is because many simply aren’t doing the things that white and Asian women are doing sexually..

    To play devils advocate, Mekhi does spend time with his son with Malinda. But she has more custody. My friend who got played by him knows this. But I think we all can agree that he is going to pull the same shit with this girl that he did with Malinda. Poor thing is short and fugly, has a cheating man, and is going to be just another baby mama. Give them three years, and he is going to be divorced and dating, and she will be stuck with a kid and stretch marks and damn near 30 and single. Dumbest move she ever pulled. Why don’t people use condoms?

    And what the hell is the big deal about IR dating? Last I checked, we are all human, so who cares if it’s black, white, latino, asian, or middle eastern? How about we stop fighting about petty shit like this and just respect one another for the kind of person they are, and not what color they are.

    @Ilish

    Actually black men date and marry interracial more than twice of white men. Only 3% of white men are in IR relationships compared to 10% of black. White and black women come in at 6%. White men are least likely to be in IRs. The most common reason has been numbers. There are 200 million whites in America, only 40 million blacks. The average white man simply does not have any reason to date or marry outside his race because there are so many white women. In fact it has been shown that among any group (except asian women) IRs go up in communities where the minorities are way underrepresented. Where blacks are in high numbers black men will almost always chose black women over any other.

    White infighting is centered usually around politics and class. Its effects have been growing apathy among voters and class distain. I will agree with you that whites do infight and that it has its negative effects. Our’s almost always seems race based and because it is constantly with us (unlike politics and status) we are instantly isolated by it.

    As for race being a decider. While I’m married to a black woman, we both have almost exclusively dated white because of limited past contacts with blacks. We lived in no man’s lands for years before meeting each other. Whites (women in pariticular) feel little threat from black women. I don’t think it’s pollanyish to discard race. I do think people with self esteem issues seek affirmation, and see being desired by a person of another race as part of that affirmation. “If a white person thinks I’m attractive then I must be.” I think that’s the kind of logic we see in the threads here.

    I appreicate your clever response. More than any color I admire intelligent women, and I see that you are that.

  150. Triple XXX

    ^^^The percent for black men in IRs is 13%. Sorry about the earlier mistake. However, the number of black men marrying black women has shot up in the past 10 years and the number of black $100.000+ couples marks one of the fastest growing segaments in the population.

YThe fact is that they were once married or dated and some still are to white men. I just think u dont approve of black women/white men couples and wont admit it.

    White men and Asian women are higher than White men black women. But white men have an overall lower rate of IRs than either black men or women. However, according to the last census Asian women and then Black men had the highest rate of IRs.

    Here is one of many articles on the subject and the one that puts it the simplest. I don’t know if I copied it right. If you have trouble accessing it let me know.

    I am not against white men/black women. In fact I have been one of the most vocal proponents for good relationships period. However, I do believe black women are deluding themselves by thinking that going white is easy and will automatically solve their marriage problems. I also find it offensive when black women use white men to belittle black men, or when people use the color of their partner to validate themselves. I am happily married to a black woman. I find confident black women the greatest creations on Earth. If I’m racist then that’s where it is. However, as a father of a son and daughter, I do not believe love should be blocked by sometime like color.

    Just because I find your list flawed does not mean I hate black women.

    I dont know wheter to believe census anymore because I also read somewhere in another article that the White Man and Asian Woman is the highest IR pairing. I am a member on this imdb and I am always on the “Something New” board(The Interracial Movie that stars Sanaa Lathan and Simon Baker)and members always bring up stats. And its different from what you shown. I always read that Black people are the people that do the less IR dating more than any other race, so how can black men have the highest rate of IRs. By the way these stats show mainly marriages not people dating(and most people today are staying away from marriage). But I do knw this right now this moment Black Woman white man is not the highest but is growing the fastest today and made the biggest jump shark and many people believe this is because the media and the hiring practices of corporate America are pushing for this to happen.

    When u turn on ur TV, in soap operas, TV shows etc. u mostly see black woman white man pairings. It seems thats what its all about now.

    I never said White men black women are higher than women White men and Asian. I know that the highest IR pairing is White Man asian woman. White men date Asian women more than black men in America as far as I know. I know it could surely be different like in Africa the people that do the most IR dating is African Woman(It is rediculous)

    I meant to say I know it can surely be different in other countries

    I know things can be confusing. But one reason I picked this article as a representation is that it answers most of the questions you bring up. 1) while it does list marriages, it also list cohabitation, which is more likely to occur in the black community. In that black men are again the higher than whites. 2) stats can be confusing because they are a percentage of a number. for example For example 75% of mixed asian marriages may be with white men but there are far fewer asians (14 million) in America compared to blacks (40million) so a higher percent of a lower number may bring in fewer overall couplings when compared to other groups. 3) the article plainly states that while census numbers are based on actually numbers from 54 million couples, numbers from other suverys may be based on far fewer people and thus have a higher margin of error.

    Another point you should note is that the rate for IR marriage with black women has been high but so has the divorce rate. In fact black women/white men have the highest rate of divorce. So gains are nulled by loss.

    Very few surveys count dating. Since people are much more likely to date than to commit. That is the problem with keeping up with celeb couples. They rarely stay together.

    there is a higher White men IR coupling in other countries. But foreigners(sp) to this site have admitted that this is because America has a much more affluent minority population. There are more monied blacks here than anywhere in the world, so white men are not seen as the top catch here as they are in other places. Apparently money has alot to do with who picks who.

    May I ask why are you part of a “Something New” forum? Why are Black women/white men called something new? Its been going on for ages.

    lastly, the media has been pushing the BW/Wm for ages, mostly because either black women or white men have been writing the scripts. That is changing as IRs with black men is finally being acknowledged. Check out Sleeper Cell, last years Greys Anatomy, several print ads, and recent Sean Jean ads. MTV has shown twice more IRs with black men than with BW.

    On a positive note for Asian men, while the data may have a higher risk of error, several surverys since the census has shown that more American Asian women are chosing non white marriage partners.

    Another thing you may be interested in. Old stories of WM plantation owners falling in love with their lovely black slaves and sweeping them away were actually based on light skinned black men of the period who had found freedom and returned to take away their black wives or lovers. For some reason writers decided it would be more exciting having the man be white rather than black ao the of mixed plantation love have been written without black men ever since. It has changed with the discovery of letters and release of family records and news reports from the time stating that it was black men who were mostly romancing these women.

    And I’m on the something new board with other members talking about the movie and other things and if u were on that board u will learn many things concerning black women in IR relationships. But now that board is kind of dead because we discussed everything we wanted. Most of the black men on that board are bitter and saying it seems that is the new trend today. so ur post is irrelevant

    want more thing the main reason black women and white men are growing because black women are moving up the corporate ladder faster than our male counterparts like Sanaa said on the Oprah Video(hope u watched it

    another FACT

    Miscegenation — an official trend: The Atlanta Journal Constitution has a seemingly important taboo-busting story on the increase in black women dating white men. The evidence of this trend is not only anecdotal — AJC’s John Blake says

    According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of black female/white male marriages remained relatively static between 1960 and 1980, increasing from 26,000 to 27,000. But by 2000, the number had jumped to 80,000.

    Why the shift? Blake emphasizes the large percentage of black men who are off the dating scene because they’re “in jail, or are murder victims

  176. TripleXXX

    black men/white women marriages are over 200,000 to black women/white men 100,000 or so. black men/white women divorce but black women divorce at greater numbers across the board. Black women are getting more degrees but that doesn’t necessarily mean more money. Black men still out pace black women in pay. In fact white women are getting more degrees than white men and the pay difference is still there.

    A growing number of black women are going to prison as well, and many are rendered as unacceptable candidates because they may have a child.

    Look, my father is the product of a white man/black hispanic woman. My wife is also multiracial. Yet that means nothing in the world. I’m not against your something new movement. I just think you’re putting too much hope on race and not enough on setting down what you expect from a mate and going after that. I’ve heard the stuff you’re spouting all my life. usually from darker skinned black women, and I feel sorry because I’ve been where you’re going. If you put your hope in race you’ll never get as much as if you put it in something more substantail. The black men in your group probably left because they were tired of arguing. And Blakes’ rise in black/white IRs is mentioned in that article I sent you. You haven’t say anything new.

    It is clear to see that u are bitter about the trend and rise of black women white men IRs. To make yourself feel better u say negative things about black women white men couples and say positive things about black men white women couples. Talking about black women white men have the highest divorce rate. That is false, u said that to make yourself feel better. Black couples get divorced too. Anyway the people that got divorced in that list got married to another white male, so what does that tell u.Its lear to see u are the type of brotha who hates to see black women in IR relationships but is happy to see a black man in a IR relationship whether u admit it or not. From the way things seem to be going now, I think black women white men couples will surely be very high the way things are going now and I send my condolescence to u and any other black man like u

    Black women are finally opening up and arent loyal to black men like we used to be. The reason why the IRs between white men and black women is because of black women. Most black women wouldnt give a white man the time of day! We realize we have to be open to all races of men and not just the black men. And many black men are in jail, not in college so what should a sista do wait for a good brotha(if he comes your way than thats good) when other decent race men are standing right in front of u – NOT

    My statements have nothing to do with my likings of what I find in a man. Also u said – Black women are getting more degrees but that doesn’t necessarily mean more money. Black men still out pace black women in pay – Yeah we all know we live in a SEXES society no matter what color u are women have to work extra harder, but the fact is that eventhough the black man out pace black women in pay, that is only the black man in the cooperate ladder(which the numbers are very small), but the fact is that there are more black women than black men in the coorporate ladder, so that means in total there are more black women making more money than black men in general, I’m not talking about the few black men in higher positions(because they are men and they will make more money because we live in a SEXES society), I’m talking in GENERAL. And this is because there are more black women in college. – Everyone knows that!

    And eventhough u claim the numbers of black women in jail is growing, it will NEVER pass the amount of black men. Black men are the higest in prison more than any other race or gender and I know u know this but wont admit this. People always say the numbers of black men in prison isnt that far from black men in college and that is very sad

  185. You Are Too Much

    I am happy for the couple. (Here I am Johnny come lately. I guess it is because I barely watch TV.) You are all too much. We are all people. I know that the disrespect and downgrading of each other needs to stop. Have pride and respect for yourselves. All you send into the lives of others comes back into your own. Believe that.

    Truthfully, the media does sensationalize or cause hysteria about things that go on in the Black Community. Hmm. Stop going to the media for your self-worth or validation or ammunition. Love is the rule of the day.

    I did not know about how he treated Malinda, but if he said those things I read, he should be ashamed and apologize everytime they cross paths. Every woman deserves respect, and some things should just not be said.
