And so is brown, and yellow. And whatever color we've decided to assign to Middle Eastern people. All these groups together, converging in one place for some wet and wild fun. What could go wrong? Well, apparently, a great deal. Many Interracial Love stories are very well written and deeply affecting, with wonderful, well developed characters and bulletproof plots. They attract fans from every category on the site, and their heartwarming presentation of the juxtaposition of people of different colors getting it on make sure they're remembered for lifetimes. Others aren't so loving, but are no less developed or entertaining - these stories are about quick, no-strings-attached fucks, and they are just as popular and arousing as their longer, more personal counterparts. Then there are those that, while still arousing, tend to lean heavily on stereotypes for credibility. These stories can center on any combination of race relations, but are often restricted to those of blacks and whites. They are not forthrightly racist - on the contrary, the authors are usually trying as hard as they can not to be - but racially insulting stereotypes make their way into the story nonetheless. And it's not just restricted to people of color, either - white people are stereotyped just as rigidly as their darker peers. As hard as people try to eliminate these preconceptions and other such falsehoods attached to race, they still permeate every layer of society. Sexual ones seem to have an even tighter hold than the mainstream social ones do. A few common examples: White Women In many Interracial Love stories, white women are the biggest whores on the planet. They run around fucking man after man, trying to find the biggest black cock they can get their hands on so that they can fuck their brains out on it. It is their life goal to find that perfect black snake that they all dream of at night, completely unable to reach orgasm with anyone else. No dick is too big for their mouths, cunts, or asses, and they're not afraid to let the world know it. Reading these stories, you would think that all white women are raging sluts, bent on finding the perfect black man to service in return for use of his cock (or perhaps world domination, depending on who you ask). They don't have any other goals in life. Where would they find the time to look for a career, love, or personal fulfillment when their hunting for dark shlongs all the time? While many white women do find black men sexually attractive, and some are a part of the BDSM community, most of them are not complete freaky whores. Most white women are just normal people looking for happiness, just like the rest of us. Like most stereotypes, this one is true for only a select few people, and should not be generalized to an entire population. Not all white women hunt endlessly for black men. Sorry black dudes, but don't assume that every white woman you meet is dying to suck you off. It just isn't true. Black Women In the world of low-key-racist stories, black women are the epitome of every man's sexual fantasy. They are a treasure trove of crazy sex positions, wild tricks, and insatiable hunger. Apparently given the gift of extraordinary sexual prowess by the savannah gods of the ancient Serengeti, black women in these stories are reduced to sex machines, working tirelessly to give every man they meet a professional lesson in sexual education, the likes of which he cannot imagine. She seems to have had endless practice at the craft no matter how old she is in a story. In a few tales, her incredible cock-pleasing abilities can even hurt a man, especially if he's white and hasn't taken her class on sexual technique at the local community college. Such stories include tall tales in which a gorgeous black woman does double-backhand springs and cartwheels off of the bedroom furniture, and requires the man she entertains for the night to wear a helmet, knee and elbow pads, and shin guards to avoid cuts, bruises, and extensive cranial injury. There's even a release of liability statement. She can't afford to get sued. Not again. I don't know if this started in the slave days or what, but black women won't kill you while having sex with you, nor is every black woman a sexpert. Like in every other race, there are undoubtedly a few black women who demonstrate pronounced sexual skill, but again, it shouldn't be generalized to include all black women. Just because you have a friend who knows a guy that slept with a black woman two years ago and said she was fantastic doesn't mean all black women are total pro's when it comes to sex. Asian Women Asian women in these types of stories are usually fresh-off-the-boat, will love-you-long-time, and love nothing more than to suck a dick and take it in the face when they're done. I have no idea how the hell this started, but it sure is a popular theme now. They always show up at somebody's front door dressed in Tokyo street style, ready for a cavalcade of bukkake fun. The come in, do their thing, and then go to the kitchen and cook you a lovely meal. Then they clean your house, and wait for the fun to start again. They speak no English, and say okay to everything. I'm not a hundred percent sure where this originated, either, but you can be sure that it's just as over-generalized as the rest of the stereotypes. Just because you saw some Japanese girls doing it in a movie doesn't mean all Asian chicks wanna take your cum in their faces. It's a simple as that. Black Men The black men in these stories are perhaps the most stereotyped of all. They are heavily objectified and usually have very few personality traits, consisting of little more than a dick with legs. In most of these stories, the black man is either a empty headed sports player, a horny janitor, or Fat Albert. He's never just a average guy who works at the post office or manages a department at Wal-Mart. He talks like a complete Neanderthal - the Ebonics are way exaggerated - and is only interested in fucking as many cunts as he possibly can. His enormous twenty-four-inch cock gets hard at every female that he encounters, and he damn near explodes in his undies if she's a white woman. Unable to control his ridiculously large penis, he is a slave to his desires, desperate for pussy all the fucking time. In the remaining portion of these stories, the black man's ego is so completely swollen that it's a wonder he can balance his head on his shoulders. He always has the perfect body, the biggest penis, and the most pussy options. He walks around town like King George, confident in his superiority of everyone around him. He is sure that all the women in the world live only to serve him, and that since he is the greatest gift to mankind since ole' baby Jesus, he can treat people however he wants. He's a total arrogant asshole, and he cares nothing for anybody. The truth is, neither of these stereotypes is true of all black men. Just like every other race of people, the black race has it's horndogs and fatheads. That doesn't mean that every black man must fit into one of these categories. Likewise, not every black man is a sports player, a service worker, or a lazy fat ass bum. Most black guys hold regular jobs at the same places as the rest of us, working to support their families. It's only because the idiots get more attention that everyone thinks black guys suck. White Men Some might argue that white males don't have stereotypes, that all they have are positive traits. They'd be wrong, especially when it comes to interracial sex stories on this site. In almost all interracial stories that involve a white guy, he's totally obsessed with having sex with a woman of another race. It's all he thinks about, day after day, as he sits at his computer, jacking off to pictures of Halle Berry in that swimsuit from Die Another Day. Descriptions of white guys are usually severely one-sided, focusing all the attention on the girl and her traits. It's like white guys are all the same, so they don't deserve a proper introduction, any personality traits, or any other facet of life apart from their desire to fuck a black (or Asian, or Mexican/Hispanic) chick. There's just an extreme lack of person. Another theme says, probably unintentionally, that white guys have no souls. All they want to do in these stories is fuck minority women and rule the world. Sometimes, they're even genetically engineered to dominate and oppress other races, except for during sex. And you guys know who writes most of those, too. The point is, white guys do in fact have souls just like everyone else. They have lives and thoughts that aren't centered on sex, too, and their stereotypes are just as false as the others. And they're definitely not genetically engineered to kill and oppress minorities. If blacks and whites switched bodies tomorrow, everyone would still hold the same positions after the initial shock had passed - their skin would just be different colors. Social tensions between races are about much more than skin color. All in all, most Interracial Love stories are totally fine, but there are a few that have some problems with racial stereotypes. Just remember that these are only stories, and don't carry these ideas with you when you head out into the world. Blind to the Races Ch. 02 We're all aware of stereotypes in the Interracial Love category - everyone's come across their fair share of Geishas and Magical Black Pussy, and most of us are past the point of being offended. Most stories like this are, while inaccurate, not half as ridiculous of some of the scenarios that we've read about in our online porn lives. Something that I have noticed, however, is the high number of stories that involve white women, black men, and white husbands engaging in some kind of odd, psychological threesome. The woman is always portrayed as a raging slut, the black man is the noted 'dick with legs' (see Blind to the Races I), and the white man is purported to be a wimp of ridiculous magnitude. On the surface, it doesn't seem to make any sense. The people don't seem to behave the way normal people do; they don't really have any emotions, and just kind of go through this creepy melodrama where they behave like bad, poorly paid, community-theater actors. They spout lines like "I'm gonna fuck your white wife's white pussy with my big black dick!" and "Oh, Gerald, his dick is so much more fantastic than yours!" The husband sits around like Charlie Brown, lamenting his circumstances and watching the whole thing happen with a "What the fuck should I do?" expression on his face. I was confused as well - why would anyone tolerate the kind of behavior that the people in these stories display? People don't act like this! Eventually, I realized something I think we've always known - that often, characters in stories represent ideas and inexpressible feelings and attitudes more often than actual people. How many books have you read where a hero has magical powers and overcomes all of the evil in the world? Where he gets the beautiful, unattainable girl that would never go for someone like him in real life? How many stories have we heard and movies have we seen where there is little or no character development, and actions rule? Where the 'bad guy' gets punished and the values the creator of the tale holds are affirmed? Answer - too many times to count. Erotica is an unregulated medium of expression - and when I say that, I mean it in the most liberal way possible. Things can happen in porn that would be totally intolerable elsewhere, including in other types of fiction and art. In porn, we see things that we never imagined were possible, and honest feelings and desires are thrust into the spotlight, with no daytime shields to hide them. In short, porn is the land where genitalia talk and bullshit walks. We know that relations between blacks and whites in America throughout history have been, well, tense, but we've come a long way from the days of Amistad. That said, many of the stereotypes and unspoken societal rules that were set in place during that time are still around - especially those that have never been formally addressed. We all know now that it's not nice to turn people away from businesses and refuse to sell them homes based on the color of their skin, but many of the sexual stereotypes have prevailed, and find expression in outlets where they will not be judged. Like erotica. Now, it may seem contradictory for me to talk about Blacks being stereotyped and mistreated - after all, isn't it the white husband who is being made fun of? The answer is yes, but bear with me. I have a point. I promise. Those of you who stayed awake for the slower portions of history class will be familiar with the term 'miscegenation.' For those of you who weren't so conscientious, it's a term that refers to interracial sex/marriage or racial admixture, or more specifically, it's used to suggest that the white race is being polluted by the other, 'lesser' races. It is considered offensive, so don't go calling your friends in interracial relationships 'misceginators.' Now, back in the day, they had laws called 'anti-miscegenation laws.' I don't think I have to explain what those are. If a white man broke an anti-miscegenation law, it was no big - it was just a man being a man, getting some of that exotic twat before he came home to the wife. However, if a white woman dared to have sex with, or God forbid, marry someone of a different race, she was forever considered a traitorous slut. The white woman who married the black man was considered the worst of these blood-traitors; having sex with a wild buck from the fields (His dick is dangerous! They're rapists!) was considered the utmost rejection of whiteness and could get the pair of them killed. A few decades and a vocal civil rights movement later, we've now arrived at a place where interracial couples are tolerated. But Black-White relationships are still considered taboo, and that goes double for the black-man-white-woman variety. So now, we get to the heart of what I think is behind all of these wife-slut-black-lover-wimp-husband stories. A white woman who has sex with a black man is considered a slut - no arguments there. A white woman who has a white husband and then takes a black lover is a MEGA-slut, and her husband is implicated in her sluttiness; if he were doing is manly, ruler-of-the-house duties, his wife wouldn't have to stoop so low as to actually have sex with one of those darkies-of-the-field. This also brings me back to what I was saying about characters not always representing actual people, especially in porn; in reality, it is extremely unlikely that an actual couple who was not previously into cuckolding would suddenly get into it just because the wife had sex with a black man. But what they do represent are attitudes - attitudes that say that black men are inherently unable to control their sexual drives, that white women are pure, and for the two to mix is to soil whiteness; the husband that fails to recognize such a woman who would fuck a black man before they were married deserves to watch his wife's vagina defiled by the likes of a 'beast.' This theory is further supported by the lack of stories that flip the script - white men and black women are almost never portrayed in this light. The white man is respectable, honest, and always a good fuck, and the black woman is extra-special, beautiful, nice, and never, ever a slut. This is because a black woman who dates/marries a white man is said to be making a move that is status-raising; after all, even if he's not perfect, a white man is still better than a black man. (According to society, not me. Also, in the good ol' slavery days, white men could have all of the black women they wanted, and a black man who had sex with a white woman was always, always, always a rapist. A black woman who hooked up with a white man was considered lucky, even if she was a slave.) A white woman who dates/marries a black man is ruining something perfect. It's not appropriate to discuss racial misgivings, especially those of a sexual nature, out in the open; thus, they remain as strong as ever, due to inability to address them. It also shows that the legacy of slavery is not dead, and that everyone involved in the whole dirty business has been tainted by it. The damage has followed us through the generations, and continues to make us uncomfortable to this day. How long are we going to let it go on? The slaves and the owners have had their years; isn't this time ours? I don't know the answers to these questions, but I do have a better understanding of the stories that I have read that involve this type of behavior. I get now that what I'm reading doesn't make sense because it's embodying something that isn't true, and that it serves as a marker to identify biases that we have in our society. But becoming aware of biases is the first step to getting rid of them. Isn't that what whey say?
