I ask this question because I live in New York and I see a lot of black women with white men recently. I think it is great because you would only see black men with white women. It seems as though some white men like dark skin women more than black men. But hey the interracial relationships is a beautiful thing.

To some people it may be the forbidden fruit attraction. Somewhere in there sub-conscious they feel that it is taboo and therefore it is exciting. I would not say that is the case for all interacial relationships. I am sure the reasons vary; however, I believe that at least some of the relationships are as genuine as any. Maybe it is the romantic in me, but I believe that some interacial relationships are just two people that have gotten to know each other, fell in LOVE, and are persuing that attraction.

why do some people like pizza and some people don't, it is a matter of taste.

Within the black community there is often still a degree of beleifs for lighter skin being "prefered.

I much prefer the darker skin, but then I like pespi over coke, and wendy over McDonalds

It is my white husbands fantasy to be with a black woman. For him it is the taboo thing that turns him on but he also finds alot of darker skinned women attractive.

I think if a white man is going to date a black woman and get all the slack that interracial couples receive, he might as well go for the darkest. The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice!. I see a lot of that tho, Dark skinned black women and white men

Do you mean that there is a difference other than skin color and (often) social background and level of education?
People like people. Men like women. What has skin color to do with that?
Just yesterday we remembered the murdered Doctor Luther King.
It seems from your question that he died in vain ...

Just that you know : I am as white skinned as one can be. The only real basic difference between white skinned and dark skinned people is that the first group has to use more sunburn lotion when tanning !

Amazing : nothing seems to have changed there across the big pond ...

It doesn't bother me except for one thing does a little bit
where I live many of the teen age white girls are literally obsessed and chase after the black boys with the rappy hood style. They even imitate them with the slang and wearing their pants below their butts. I guess it is no worse than the hippie trend or anything else but it worries me because they jump from one guy to the next and have no idea of having a relationship. I guess it is more that the girls are acting like the guys now that bothers me mostly.
My younger daughter is with a black guy and I even had a feeling when she was two that she was going to be with a black guy. I would never discourage her from being with him. When her dad finds out and flips out on her I plan to have a few choice words with him that he will not appreciate.
