Coloured men don't cheat - *UPDATED* 29/10/11

[Zack Alklazaris]

Cheating has to do with upbringing and the way your brain is wired. Its not a race thing at all.
Statistically African Americans have a higher divorce rate than their white counterparts: http://www.divorce360.com/divorce-articles/news/trends/african-americans-and-marriage.aspx?artid=1176 - "African-Americans are less likely to get married and more likely to get divorced, according to experts who have studied divorce rates around the United States."

Stable marriages help a child develop a healthy morality when it comes to relationships. Betrayal by ether parent can cause someone never to let anyone get too close or cause them to down right hate a particular sex. So one could argue that she has them flipped.

Personally, I think its not so much to do with race as where you meet them. The environment where you meet your partner can directly reflect how that relationship will progress. You can't go to a bar dressed like a hooker and expect to pick up respectable men.

i'm white and i'd never cheat, but from personal experience, more tretcherous self absorbed deuchebags are white, but i doubt there's any ground behind that theory, just chance encounters for me and a randon theory for your sister.

however it is also true that people from different parts of the world are biologically different, which is why people from africa are usually better at limbo than europians, but whether this could provide a different emotional template i have no idea ^_^

Okay, as the people in the thread have demonstrated, black people are just as likely to cheat as people of any other skin colour.
Fact.
However, I don't think you can convince your sister with logic. Prejudice/racism rarely works that way. What might work, on the other hand, is appealing to a different common racial misconception that she probably already believes in that completely opposes her idea that only "coloured" people make good spouses.

Spoiler: I'm talking about this one.

[sub]Yeah I know it's bad, but it's in an appropriate context, so please don't hammer me for this, mods.[/sub]

I have a feeling your sister is trying to justify a fetish she doesn't understand or something.

I...I thought Coloured was considered a very bad word to use nowadays. Is it just in America?

Anyways, I'll have to go with every other post and say that's pretty stupid.

It's kinda offensive over here as well. Tends to be only the older generations that still use it, not sure why the OP has used that term.

I think it's considered slightly racist to try and claim that black people are essentially good *and running..

If you mean at instead of *and.
Are you fucking serious? Is anything not racist these days!?
Its pretty obvious in general black people can run faster than white people, that is a fact not racism.
In general white people can swim faster than black people.

Am i being racist, fuck no. White people and black people are different get over it.

OT: Colour (Damn you chrome for making me want to put color) has no impact on this whatsoever. I know this girl who got cheated on by a black guy.. will that change your sisters mind?

 

[JochemDude]

More pigment = No cheating

I don't even...

 

[redisforever]

Stupid. Completely stupid and racist. Tell her the internet disagrees. Also, OP, best. avatar. EVER!

 

[Sordak]

lol

LOL how dumb is that?
well turks in austria are known to cheat alot and dont respect their girlfriends.


realy thats just as biased as anyone that says all coloured people are criminals.

 

[Raregolddragon]

Your sister is a racist, my condolences.

 

[FarleShadow]

I need a big neon sign that reads 'Idiot' in 10 foot high letters.
Anyone?

 

[lacktheknack]

WTF

The whole damn point of race equality was recognizing that skin color was completely irrelevant to how people's brains work. Congratulate her on flagrantly ignoring a couple hundred years of work by thousands of people.

 

[Wushu Panda]

I used to work with some black guys who had wives. Whenever we went out on lunch break they were always hitting on and getting numbers from good looking women, they cheated all the time.

People of every color cheat, she is a dumbass.

 

[ThunderCavalier]

That is...incredibly biased and idiotic.

Humans naturally want the best they can get; its in our nature to want to bag the best woman/men/aliens, because it not only feeds our ego, but it satisfies the primal urge to mate with the creme de la creme. As a result, it doesn't matter whether you are white, black or green; cultural differences aside, people cheat on each other regardless; its because they think they've found something better than you.

Not saying its right by any margin, but this is just...*shakes head*

I was going to post something, but someone already said it.

 

[A-D.]

The only thing crossing my Mind when i read the OP was not that his/her Sister bases it on Racism, but preference.

Its really simple, the whole Interracial Angle is very alluring to some People, you know, Asian+White, or Asian+Black or what have you. In short, the OP's Sister likes the Idea of Interracial Sex, simple as that. Dont really see how thats in any form actually racist, although the reasoning is utterly stupid, given that anyone can cheat on someone, even if you dont, the option, that chance is always present, unless of course you are living alone in a cave somewhere as a Hermit.

Or in very short terms: She (the OP's Sister) personally prefers Black Meat over White Meat..oh god i cant believe i made that analogy. But you get the Idea.

 

[RheynbowDash]

Ok as a "colored" guy, thats a crock of shit. Black guys cheat waaaaaaaaay more than any other race. There are some good ones out there, but the majority of them have this ego/god complex thing going on.

 

[gmaverick019_v1legacy]

I have seen many episodes of Maury Povich and Jerry Springer that would disagree with this assertion.

bahaha this.

OP just tell her to watch every episode of jerry springer/maury povich/steve wilkos show.

regardless of blatant racism aside, where in the hell did she ever come up with such an absurd view?

 

[Rodrigo Girao]

colour

I...I thought Coloured was considered a very bad word to use nowadays. Is it just in America?

It is not offensive, it just sounds quite archaic.

that picture got me detention back in the day, my friend showed it to me in the middle of class and i died laughing (because he looks like one of the guys in the picture, exactly the same) and the teacher found it absolutely disgusting to laugh at it.

"better"? geez thats harsh...I like to think of it more as (depending on the situation) it could be boredom if a relationship is stagnat...or going with ones impulse shoudl the opertunity present itself

you may be right (or could you mean better from "their" perspective, not just better as an objective fact) but yeah...mabye monogmy just doesnt work for some people
