I'ma be honest, I'm not too sure who you're directing at anymore. Gazi Kodzo is troll trash, you know this, I know this, we all know this. You shouldn't take anything he says at face value, he does it to get a rise out of people and he's hardly a spokesperson for blacks or LGBTs.

Wait, the tea in this paragraph. I feel you sis, I've felt the same way many times (and still do at times). But don't let them get the best of you. Not all gays will hate you for your skin, and not all blacks will hate you for being gay. Keep your head up and take pride in being someone who can cross cultural boundaries, in being someone who can live and experience multiple sides of the coin and still come out a better person because of it. We can't change the circumstances we were born into, but we can learn and grow from them and we can become more empathetic people because of it. Just keep believing that our day in the sun will come. Remember, they can only win if you let them. Don't give them the satisfaction.

Thank you. You made me feel somewhat better. I've just been so down lately and I'm tired of being ostracized by each group.

This. Though, it's hard to blame people when they say they only like whites or caucasoid features, considering that's what we've all been conditioned to love by the media. The problem is the people who don't want to acknowledge that fact and just chalk their prejudice it up to "preference".

Sometimes I feel like people will be quick to say they are the victim of prejudice when it comes to dating or being fetishized. But is it because they are ignoring people of other non-whites races to go after the white male who is considered a" trophy"?

Why is it when interracial relationships are brought up it's with a Poc with a white person but rarely a Poc with another POC? And like said above even in certain groups there's issues. Like the light skin versus dark skin black person.

Lmao that reminds me of this video of a group of black men talking about "racism" in the homo community and it was all about how white gay look at them, but when they were asked about dating other black men they all went mute quick.

But racial discrimination and discrimination against sexual orientation are different. You can still be given equal rights for your orientation and still be a racist. At the end of the day, it's going back to the over-arching issue of racism in all communities. So unless there's some kind of "special racism" going on in the LGBT community that needs to be researched, I don't really see the point.

The surveys were done by a gay men's organization so obviously the focus will be on the gay male "community." There is no point in doing a study about a broad topic like racism and trying to cover every section of society.

And it's definitely noteworthy because if you read the full article from the organization, these gay men are saying they're more comfortable being in a homophobic place than with other gay men because , which is disturbing.

There is definitely an issue but to be honest interracial dating in general regardless of sexual orientation is not that common. (At least not where I live

)

I have plenty of other examples.

I can even use straight people. You know how black women are the least desired? You know what's messed up, often times black men are not even going for black women they would rather have a white or biracial but really light skin black girl. There was actually articles about this from various sources we even had a thread on this on atrl.

In fact how often do you see black basketball players with a black girlfriend or wife who isn't non-black or biracial?

I mean we can go on about whites not dating outside their race but if you keep following racist ideals of beauty you're only hurting yourself. And I know many people won't agree with me on this but whatever.

When the gays do want to get with a black guy, a lot of the times it's because they want them for the size of their p****. It's disgusting because A). It's a fetish or B). It's objectifying us. Making us seem like an object to be played with.

Oh you don't have to tell me I know lol.

I sometimes side eye people who go so hard though because white guys don't like them because it's like are you even attracted to your own race?

I actually do agree with you. "light skinneded" blacks or "redbones" or whatever slang you wanna use for mixed black people, are literally a hot commodity in the black community when it comes to dating. They're almost like a status symbol, which is extremely sad. When I used to live in the bay area, I was rejected by more black men than I was by white men, for that exact reason I think.

So yes, there is prejudice coming from other POC as well as from whites. But again, I think that goes back to the whole social conditioning thing. That's why a lot of times, I find it hard to blame people when they say they "prefer white guys". Like of course you do. Everybody does. We've all been conditioned to look at white and caucasian features as the idealistic beauty.

What I hate though is that when Black people do date their own race, they always look for a mixed girl or boy.

I'm a little disheartened that some members are more focused that it was a gay only study instead of the reports that the community is littered with racism.

My thoughts exactly. Straight white people are equally as sexually racist as gay white people.

The thing I hate about the emergence of social justice warriors is that they've created a sort of "discrimination olympics" where all they do is debate online over who is the most disadvantaged group, and which minority isn't helping the other minorities enough, without actually contributing to society or making any proactive changes.

I know an adult in my life who is also gay and told me that I deserved a better-looking white guy instead of the "Indian" guy I was dating (who is Pakistani and not even Indian, lmao). It's true.
