Regarding your point about black women:<p>At least in North America, Black females, like Asian men, have a harder time in the dating scene partially due to their gender&#x2F;ethnicity combination. Both sets endure media representation and stereotypes that play against their sexual desirability. I&#x27;m sure people here will profess that they are immune to any images cultivated by the media and I&#x27;m not going to discount their experience. However, I think it&#x27;s naive to believe that images we consume on a daily basis, such as the gender&#x2F;ethnicity makeup of desirable lead characters or negative representations in the news don&#x27;t unconsciously affect us. Anecdotally, I have met more black men who said they would never date a black women and Asian women who said they&#x27;d never date Asian men compared to white people who say they&#x27;d never date a white person. Online dating stats from eHarmony, okCupid, and coffeemeetsbagel reinforce that observation.<p>On top of that, people generally have a statistical preference for those within their own race. And if black men have a higher tendency to be imprisoned than other men, that puts black women at an additional disadvantage to finding a partner.<p>I guess my overall point is issues black women face are very different and unique to what Hispanic&#x2F;White&#x2F;Asian women face.
