    The White Man's Guide to Dating Black Women -- WTF?
    01.23.08 (3:07 pm) posted by Genia vote for me on digg and reddit

    The White Man's Guide to Dating Black Women is a 180 page book that's supposed to provide white men a definitive guide for how to successfully date Black women:
    If you're a White man interested in dating Black women, this book shows you how to make it happen. Learn how Black women think, what they like and don't like to see in White men, and where and how to go about meeting them. Find out how to cope with public reaction to interracial couples, learn how to counteract the psychological inhibitions that can hold you back from getting involved and understand why those who oppose interracial relationships feel compelled to think and act the way they do.
    Ha! Ha! Rollin' on the floor laughin' my ass off!

    I'll ramble off a few questions that immediately come to mind:

    1. Are Black women so complicated that white men need an instruction manual?
    2. How does dating Black women differ from dating white women?
    3. Where's the The White Lesbian's Guide to Dating Black Women? I might actually consider buying several copies of that book to give away as gifts next Christmas.
    4. Will this be the first of a series of books that address interracial dating? If so, I wanna see this as the next book in the series: Why Brothas Are Dating White Women Like It's Goin' Outta Style

    The book's author, Adam White, has apparently learned something that even I -- as a Black female -- don't know; He knows how Black women think.

    I haven't read the book yet, but when I do I'll give it a very fair review. I promise. For now though, I just need to rant about the implications of a book like this. The author should've just named the book White Women are from Venus, Black Women are From God Knows Where because the mere suggestion that dating Black women is somehow different than dating white women implies we're complicated characters that need to be studied under a microscope.
