We are fetished a lot, but we aren't just used in such a way.

waiT @ you hitting the nail on the head

If people are mean to ya'll ya'll complain, if people are nice to ya'll ya'll find reasons to diminish yourselves and complain, like

Everyone has fetishes, personally I'd like to do a thug that has a gun on his pocket just like I'd like to do a white ginger because he is ginger, it's not my fault

Yes. When you go on **** sites and 'Black' is in one of the tabs It fetishizes them and sets them apart as an 'other'. There's black ****, then there's 'regular' **** with whites

!!!!!

I've always wanted to ask this. It's like a fetish thing. "I've always wanted to get f***ed by a black D"

Yes, just like all racial/ethnic minorities, black people are fetishized, exotified and hyper-sexualized (though sometimes asexualized, just as demeaning and troublesome)

We shall never know the truth.

You sound hot.

I used to fetishize black men, but then I actually dated a black guy and lived with him. He showed me love I'll never forget.

Blacks USUALLY, MOST OF THE TIME have different features than americans or asians or europeans and so on, they all have different features. Thats why

It's not just black people, but all minorities. If you look at Hollywood, most of the roles played by Latinas are essentially these exotic, beautiful sex toys to be used for eye candy. It's as if they have no value unless they have sex appeal (Eva Longoria, Sofia Vergara, Jennifer Lopez, Jessica Alba). It's the same with East Asian women or even South Asian women (unless they're there for comedic purposes like Mindy Kaling). The men aren't valued at all.

Actually, you can see it right here on ATRL with Jay Sean threads. A lot of the posts make it clear that he has no value except for his looks and his body. They don't even care if he can sing well. It doesn't matter.

This question cannot have a concrete yes or no answer. Yes the fetishation exists, but not with everybody.
