As a white guy in a relationship with an asian girl I have been made aware of the objectifying of women based on their ethnicity going on around me. If you've ever heard a guy friend talk about the "yellow fever" you know that some guys have a serious lack of self awareness and a deep seated sexism/racism. I completely agree with Sharkfu when they said: "I don't think someone needs to wanna sleep with me to be able to respect me as a woman of color."<br />Respect does not equal objectification.

As a world and continental traveler, I can't walk into a Burger King without hearing about some girl whose sister John Mayer has "boinked". And it's not that I have anything against blondes, but it's always a ditzy, white chick that happens to share these anecdotes with everyone in line. This is when I started wondering, how many girls does John Mayer have to sleep with for the rumors to spread all the way to South Carolina. Never have I heard these stories coming from a mouth of a confident, self-asserted black woman. Be lucky that we haven't. Just be comfortable in the fact that a bimbo is a bimbo, and a groupie is a groupie.Alex/Beaunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-86664731373443318402010-02-14T21:25:30.693-06:002010-02-14T21:25:30.693-06:00You can be sexually attracted to black people (or ...You can be sexually attracted to black people (or other POC) and still be racist.

In fact, if Mayer had simply said sistah's weren't his type I'd probably defend his ig'nant ass.<br /><br />Attraction is individual and you know I'm not a fan of absolute statements.

And that can be as disturbing (or more so) as "I don't date them because I don´t feel attracted to them."<br /><br />I see it more as an issue of, who cares who and why your dick is attracted to, Mr. Mayer? I mean, really, why do some people think that this is an appropriate and agreeable topic of public interest?<br /><br />Now, I do think that a discussion on the public impact of the N-word is ongoing and needs to be hashed out. People need to be brought to task for using it. We need to have public conversations on why it is wrong. I am not African American, yet I feel demeaned by it too. I feel offended for all my African American compatriots.
