    An honest question:among all the races, black women seem to dislike asian men the most. I seldom see them having asian friends, not to mention marry to asian men. Are there some special reasons for this?

    I was asking an honest question based on my observations. If you think it is so easy, why don't you just give the answer.

    Before you give the answer, I hope you can read it one more time. I was asking the reason of the difference between black women and other groups including white/hispanish. I also mentioned the friendship as well as marriage.

    Oh, one more thing, I originally used the word "disciminate" then I found that word was too sensitive, so I replace it with "dislike". I tried not to offend someone in the question, but the replacement might have misrepresnt a bit what I intended to ask.

    I think the answer for the Asians/black women thing gets back to the China/blacks in bars issue

    Not sure how to explain the hispanish conundrum

    Is that why the majority of black teenage moms are unmarried?

    I made the first joke because of the first idiot. but I know, you're just sticking up for your right to be racist. I don't want to intrude

    edit: actually, both you idiots need to look up some facts on teenage pregnancy rates, they've fallen alot since the emergance of hip hop

    congrats it only took 2 posts for you to accuse me of being racist.

    instead of answering actual questions you make jokes and insults.

    way to go.

    The thing I meant by both ways is women don't want somebody less educated/successful than them but men tend to stray away from women who are more educated/successful than them as well, in other words it's not just the women's fault. I know a lot of men marry women with lower education statuses than themselves but that was not the point I was trying to make.

    That's true, at least from my own personal experiences with couples where the women is more educated/successful.

    See the difference between an actual answer and the answer you provided bigtexx? Don't complain when your answer takes heat.
