Jungle Fever Pt 2: It’s Not just Me
I appreciate all the feedback and comments from Part 1 of this Interracial Dating segment. A lot of people have mixed feelings about this “Interracial Dating” subject, but are afraid to voice their opinions. This is an issue that will be debated and discussed for eternity and there will never be a solid conclusion. This topic is way deeper than seeing two different ethnicities boo loving. Since conversation brings forth greater understanding I decided to create a platform on this particular issue to do just that. I was only speaking from my POV and what I have dealt with. I am aware there are people who do not approve. Yes, there are people who even HATE their own race and won’t rock with their own. If you thought I was out of line for the “Angry black woman antics” you haven’t seen anything yet.
I took the liberty to find a couple of videos of random people interviewed on this matter. I think its best to hear thoughts from all perspectives. I will not pass judgment on or even state my opinion as to how I feel to what some of these people have stated. Love see’s no color, so let’s continue to motivate and uplift. Most importantly mind our own damn business!
DISCLAIMER: Itstherackpack does not feel this way nor do we stand by what has been said in the video!!!

I’m sorry but dude who found his uncles porno’s in his grandma house killed it! lmaoo
The dude had me dying bruh lmao. I guess everyone has unique reasons for dating someone of another race.
I dont fuck with the white devil unless shes blonde…….#LIGHTSKINWOMEN!!!!!
Not an advocate for interracial dating, nor am I opposed, but some of the archaic thought process behind some of the reasoning for/against is just stupid. The light skin woman, who by all accounts is probably mixed somewhere down her blood line, is talking about her “pure blood?” Naw son. That’s exactly how old white men of the hooded variety (Klan members for the slow people) sound when they talk about black men “Soiling” their women and race. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not advocating for a “post racial society” because I’m not naïve enough to believe that race doesn’t matter. Above everything, I identify myself as a black man. That’s important to me, but so is my right to choose whomever I want to be with. If that’s a black, Asian, Hispanic, or white woman, so be it.
On the flip side, dude with his uncle’s porno collection was absolutely right about black and white women being susceptible to the same types of things. Black women have bore the brunt of both black and white men throughout history. Those same women who won’t dance with a guy in the club, or look at you like you’re crazy when you try to talk to them have been trained by their own experiences, and the stories of other women in their lives. Years and years of being mistreated and marginalized can leave a hardened exterior. In a society where black women have grown to feel unappreciated and targeted, the last thing most would want to do is show some type of vulnerability. I think that’s where the biggest disconnect lies. That white girl, whose insecurities don’t lie in her skin tone, won’t be as reluctant to do some of the things that black women might. And I’m not saying that there aren’t white women who don’t get mistreated, but it’s overwhelmingly our women who are made to raise children in single parent households, and support whole families on meager wages, all while “Ray Ray” is trickin off somewhere. I see the frustration in that. There’s gotta be some accountability on our end as well.
I guess what it all boils down to is if you can fight through the hardened exterior, which some might not feel inclined to do, I am absolutely sure that you’ll receive the same “love” from a black women that white women give. And if that’s not your preference, for whatever reason, then so be it, but you can’t let them misplace their trust in you.
