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

[balanovich]

How true is this statement to you, fellow escapists? If it turns out to be true, fine. If it's untrue, then I'll have evidence I can present to her as a result of this thread.

So a simple thread in a gaming forum is going to change your sister's dating habits ? ... I guess, she really doesn't base them on a lot.

My parents work all across Africa for 15 years of their life. The said that in southern Africa,"black Africa", it's very common for a man to have mistresses. And women more or less tolerate it.

The importance of monogamy is a social thing, mostly. And the level of faithfulness of someone is a personal thing. So basing it on colour if just like racism.... actually it is racism, she discriminates ignorantly against white guys for being white.

Black people also have rockets up their arses which they can use to jump great distances when threatened. They are believed to be the most genetically similar humans to the Locust from Gears of War.

That is Single most idiotic thing anyone has ever uttered.

Not any more.

Joking aside though, is this from her personal experiences? Or did this statement come to her in a dream?

There is no genetic basis for race. I understand that you mean that either one or both of his parents were "black," but obviously, his parents also held the genes necessary for him to have the skin color he does. So, really, because he has "white" skin, you could just as easily call him white as you can black.

There is actually a skin condition where a person is born black, but over time his skin loses its melanin and he appears white. I don't know if thats genetic or not, but it could be that a person with two black parents and not a white gene between them, could eventually produce a white child. There were rumours that Michael Jackson had this condition. (Maybe he did, I didn't read into it)

When are people going to realize that nothing is ever true of every member of a race/religion/country?

not so...

All Foreigners are foreign, all blacks are Homo Sapiens, as are all whites, asians, arabs and jews (and anyone else i missed)

but aside from that and the basic biological functions we all need to survive i'd have to agree

 

[Blunderboy]

There is no genetic basis for race.

Debatable. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_(classification_of_human_beings)]
Anyway, I only really posted that picture as a humorous aside to another humorous aside.

 

[PatrickXD]

I'm white, I haven't cheated as of yet.
I know a couple of black guys that've cheated.
Just word of mouth, but her justification is bullshit. People are people!

 

[IPunchWithMyFists]

So who let this woman teach?

I'm worried that she'll give me a shitty grade because slightly overweight white dudes with tendencies to talk fast don't put their heart into education.

Seriously, who let this woman teach?

 

[mysecondlife]

I guess Tiger Woods is a rare example huh.

 

[ScoobyDizzle]

i refuse to buy into the blatant sarcasm of the thread title

all men and women of all skin tones cheat /thread

 

[Soviet Steve]

So I ask you all:
Do you have any surveys or statistics or studies or similar that show how often relationships with coloured men end due to infidelity?

No but such a thing wouldn't be necessary if this claim was true. All you have to do is ask her to explain how melanin governs the adherence to modern western cultural ideals.

Also interesting would be hearing her explaination why polygamy is accepted and common in Islam (It's based in regions with larger numbers of people adapted to hot climates) and many cultures across Africa - Not to mention the tradition of concubines in China.

Culturally it's not just admitted that cheating occours in some of these regions, it's institutionalized and upheld as something glorious.

But any good skeptic will let evidence speak for itself - I look forward to seeing the lady making the extraordinary claim put forward evidence.

Here's my litmus test for physical characteristics that may indicate that something is capable of dishonesty or infidelity:

Is it human?

If yes, then it is.
If no, then it probably is anyway.

To determine if something is likely to be dishonest or unfaithful, well, that's a case-by-case basis that can't be determined by physical characteristics.

 

[Levethian]

Presumably less liberal cultures in which tolerance for cheating is lower results in less cheating on average, although the urge to cheat may be comparable across the board. Not much to do with skin colour, except incidentally.

But your sister meant to refer to the culture rather than colour, right?

 

[Acting like a FOOL]

HAHAHAHAHAH! ALL men are capable of cheating. it be good if you got realize that.

 

[Treaos Serrare]

everyone has the capacity to cheat, period, likelihoods of it happening in any specific race or gender can't be properly quantified because sometimes people do it just for the lols of it and not any "real" reason. If your sister want's to argue that colored men are more morally sound that is equally false for the same reasons

 

[Casual Shinji]

Didn't you know the dark pigment in their skin is created by a hormone which brings on an unrelenting sense of loyalty?

 

[SilverUchiha]

I'm white (and, like 1/8 native american) and I have no desire to cheat at all. Reasons?

#1 - I'm too lazy to want to try to juggle women. It sounds like a lot of work to keep them both happy and in the dark about each other and not go insane. I already have enough trouble just keeping one woman happy, I don't need deal with two.

#2 - I already have issues speaking to women to even get a girlfriend. I doubt that I'd be comfortable talking to another woman and trying to start a relationship there as easily.

#3 - I was raised right and know it's wrong to lie to people or do things behind their back when you said you wouldn't.

#4 - I believe in karma and that if I do something shitty, odds are something shitty will happen to me. Then again, shitty things happen to me all the time (namely in relationships and the attaining of them) and I haven't done jack shit. Maybe I should rethink this one.

#5 - Not enough time in the day to even do what I want (games, writing, etc) so where on Earth will I find time for having sex with more than just one person?

That's about it there.

That is a direct quote from my (white English) sister as to the reason why she only dates Arabic, African & similar men. She is adamant that white men are going to cheat on their spouse / partner while coloured men will not.

How true is this statement to you, fellow escapists? If it turns out to be true, fine. If it's untrue, then I'll have evidence I can present to her as a result of this thread.


So I ask you all:
Do you have any surveys or statistics or studies or similar that show how often relationships with coloured men end due to infidelity? Alternately do you have any stories from a friend where a coloured guy was caught cheating or similar?

Alternately escapist girls; do you have any personal stories where a coloured guy was caught cheating on you or similar?


Thanks for any replies, everybody.

OH!, well, here in MX is common that the male "Cheats" but this is a country handled by "Machism" so the girls dont, wont, cant complain, because they would rather have the father of their kids living with them even if he is sleeping around, its not that they dont cheat, its that most females dont care, so there is no "statistic" attatched to the fact that they cheat

As a heterosexual I've never dated any men, so sorry for not contributing. But you should probably not use the word "colored" just saying.

 

[Zenichi]

uhm didn't go through all the posts so dunno if someone already pointed this out..but don't some/many/majority(i honestly have no idea and am too lazy to check) of arabic/african nations allow polygamy ?

now i had to go wikipedia on this..

apparently india allows this if you are registered a muslim there..

and in some asian cultures (check wiki for further info) concubines are a common practice..

so based on that i'd say that people from those cultures would be more likely to take a second lover based on its acceptance in said cultures.

now most "western" societies outlaw polygamy and the cultures enforce having only 1 wife/lover

now thinking that white people are a majority in western societies...

doesn't this prove your sisters thoughts to be exactly opposite of what history shows of white vs ehm... said examples above in regards to what we consider cheating ?

now honestly i don't think anything apart from the frequency of sunburns is a result of the color of your skin

ps. anyone is free to correct any errors in above examples as i did not do any fact checking and i am too damn lazy to do any now.

 

[Risingblade]

Maybe it's her way of saying she's not attracted to white guys?
