I don't tell anyone what they can or can't do. My point was from a societal perspective. Rap and hiphop is quite the popular music genre and the overuse of the n-word is enabling to white people that think it's okay to say. Doesn't mean they're racist.

Context is everything, I guess I'm naive like that because I saw that phrase in another context.
This is for instance pretty crappy. I wouldn't be offended though but it would be very uncomfortable.
Saying it to another woman as a pick line is also pretty tasteless. Pickup lines tend to be tasteless though.
There's way too much stereotypes about sex in the first place.
But maybe the guy likes black women more? This is no different than people who like certain hair colors.
I honestly saw "best sex I had was with someone black" in the context of friends chatting about their experiencies, in the same line as "best sex was with a short girl" or "best sex I had was in college", more like a description of the person or event rather than attempt to generalize a whole group of people. Of course blurting the phrase out of the blue or to strangers would be weird and uncomfortable.

You're excused.
I never called you racist... chill out already.
Instead of being so defensive, you should be receptive. You might learn something.
I'm not sure if it's the video that's failing to recognizing reality.

Bragging about how you told someone saying a certain thing wasn't cool is kinda like going up to a woman and saying "One of my friends made a joke about raping dem bitches and I said that wasn't cool because rape is bad" and then expecting to get some sort of credit for it.
It's like "Congratulations! You possess the basic empathy of a normal human being. Do you want a fucking prize?"

For some of them, yes, it does. They were just waiting for the excuse. Rap shouldn't change because some white people can be ignorant.

I met a black person once. I ran inside and never came out.
Then I went on the internet and met a white person. I ran outside and never went in.
The cycle continues.

This is what I wish white people I've argued with would understand. I don't know why on like 4 occasions some of my white associates have started an argument on why black people shouldn't say "nigga" as if their opinion even matters. Let us decide whether or not we should say the word. I don't understand why they feel so strongly about it anyway.
No, black people can decide whether or not they want to use the word. If black people don't want other black people using then they are free tell them not to. No one else can.
No only idiots or the willfully ignorant don't know they shouldn't use it if they're not black. I have also found that people(particularly white people) who listen to hip hop and say "nigga", are usually the first people to call a black person a "nigger" if that black person does something they don't like.

Argh. Quit attributing things to me. I never said I didnt understand these strange hashtag movements. Hell, I never even said anything about it at all. I understand what you and others are saying.
Half the time I resist the urge to come into these threads, but my line of thinking was that someone shared a humorous story, I'll share mine. Admittedly, I got defensive. I should've stuck to my rule of staying out of these threads. I do much better face to face than over the internet.
Understand, like most adults, if I have something on my mind, I will come out and say it.
Edit: Apologies for the derail. Back to regularly scheduled programming.
So why do you feel it is white people who care, and not other people? Honest question.
White privilege is the reason, conditional use is unfair or some shit like that. I find those who complain about it the most are racists who want to be able to call black people niggers free of consequence.
There's too many stereotypes about sex for whom tho? I'll tell you who: women and minorities.
Blacks are supposed to be "animals" in bed. Stereotype by the same people who enslaved and treated us like "animals".
Asians are supposed to be submissive, and let's not even get into the horrible insults against Asian men and their penises.
And there's plenty sexual fetishes for women (of all races).
Do you know why? Because we are a hivemind, and these stereotypes are to dehumanize us and hold us to the same value as objects.
A hair color is a characteristic not solidified to one specific race/ethnicity.
And feeling the need to attribute sexual satisfaction to someone's race is awful. What was that person's name? You could say it was with someone from college and that would be a world different from singling out their race.

Prairie fever? I'm sorry, but what the heck does that mean?

I'm white, so The Sound of Music actually is my favorite movie.
The prairie is a white person's natural habitat.
It is a joke the references the phrase "jungle fever."
I've heard stereotypes about white people being boring in bed, so there's that.
Uh, I'm black and I'm pretty sure my hair only comes in a few very limited colors and types.
Unless you're talking about hair modification, anyway.
People get off to who/what they get off to. No need to shame them for that.
lol
This. Different ethnicities had certain overall looks to them that can be attractive to people. I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
there's a lot wrong with that.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves here.

I feel there should be an "American" qualifier in front of "White Men". I've never seen or heard of anyone saying that in Canada. I've only experienced this through Hollywood films.
I've only heard it said in reference to interracial couples that have a black or afro-latin@ person in it. I don't doubt your experiences however.
My girlfriend and her family(Korean) always talk about how beautiful White-Asian babies are and past coworkers(black and latino) have mentioned how much they think bi-racial kids are beautiful. Who knows, but I know I'd be extraordinarily creeped out if someone sprung that on me on a first date.
hahah.. that's not a bad line to use on a guy.
Yeah, I would be too.
My bf told me that...and I didn't even answer back. What the hell does this even mean?! As if all biracial babies come lightskinned with curly hair. Or thats whats considered pretty for a black person.
'do black men all have bigger penises?', 'you're all so feisty', 'you dont sound ghetto', 'i love brown skin, its like chocolate, but you're not that dark, you know like blue black'

I got the reference. But I don't associate white people with prairies. I'm from Iowa which had extensive prairies at one time. And of course the prairies here were originally inhabited by Native Americans. So "prairie fever" evokes the notion of lusting after a Native American for me.
But then associating black people with jungles doesn't really make sense either I suppose.
Right.
Like?
This is the first I've ever heard that...
Black, brown, red, and blonde. Black people can have each of these hair colors. I'm a natural redhead (well, it looks orange to me lol), and I'm black.
You shouldn't be proud of someone seeing you as nothing more than a colored person to be conquered for their sexual gratification. You're human, you don't deserve that.
I answered you earlier "why"
Did you read it?
Edit: whoops that wasn't you
Well anyway that's been answered. I hope you read it.

I wonder what the world would be like if everyone just answered uncomfortable questions of honest curiosity instead of complaining about them.
It's painfully obvious that Caucasians that speak like this to other ethnicities don't really know anyone of those ethnicities on a personal level to know the answers to these dumb questions. It also ignores that so many non-white people ask the same stuff to other non-whites that aren't the same ethnicity they are.
Building relationships- true lasting ones, will be what tears down these awkward walls and allows everyone to have deeper more honest discussions and both reflect upon themselves and truly change if necessary.
Thank you.

Really? They even made a quick joke in the last buzzfeed video about this sort of thing. =\
You mean Dark brown, brown, light brown, and super light brown?
Unless I'm missing something out of the numerous people I've seen throughout my entire life, I've never seen any black person with a hair color that couldn't be classified (within reason) under a shade of brown.
Blonde would absolutely astonish me, since the only times I've ever seen that is in some sort of image where it was purposefully dyed by the person in question.
Uh, I'm not saying you should. That's up to the individual. I'm saying there's no reason to shit on people for liking what they like when it comes to sex. Not every sexual experience is some sort of huge deal where you actually care about the person beyond what they look like.

If your "honest curiosity" makes another feel uncomfortable and can't be answered with out that person giving you a history lesson on why it's not okay to ask that then maybe you should rethink asking it.
Also can we all stop using Caucasian to mean white? It's a pet peeve of mine and I been considering making a thread about it
