Is it me or are white females a lot racist less then white males. The reason I brung this topic up is because the other day I was in my local park with my friends anda group of white boys said to me 'go home bitch' and the white girls who were withthem said 'dont be racist'.Whenever I have experienced racism its always been from white males as opposed to white females. Is it because white men feel threatened.

If you enter into a mix race relationship with a white person, its alwaysthe partners dad who doesn't approve, and the mother doesn't usually care. Its always women who say ''dont be racist''. I find this strange because both white males and females have been socialised in the same way so why does one sex have one mindset and the other have a different mindset???confused3



I'd like to hear your views and past experiences on this. Do you find what im sayin to be the case aswell?

Women of all races tend to be more welcolming of different people and customs and less territorial and hostile than men.

This is just nature.




((thinks to self)): Hmmmmm, I'm curious to see how some of the more "predictable" people on this site manage to turn the subject of this thread around...lol...

@Omaar, ye i did think that was the case but saying that, both sexes have been socialised the same way so why would their be a difference in their respective mentalities.



@Peacemaker, Are you honestly trying to tell me that you think white women are just slyer, i think white men are more racist full stop, perhaps because they feel threatened.

From my experience white men and women can both be racist
Its just that white women who are racist are usually sly about it...


And also from my experience when a white woman in that situation says "dont be racist" they dont exactly say it as if they are totally disgusted by the mans behaviour, it comes across asmore of a "dont do that in public" kind of way.

But that said,I dont thinkanyone can saythat onesex is more racist.
Racist people can be any sex..Its just that different sex's/people may express their racism/prejudices in different ways.

This is an ego control thing. White men tend to take for granted they are supposed to be IN CHARGE in the culture.

A White woman dating a Black man in the late 60s said a Whit man came up behind her, Grabbed he by the arm, twisted her arm behind her back and started marching her away form the Black man. There was a policeman nearby who made him let her go. But the cop didn't arrest him, he just told him to go about his business.

Oh yeah, let me also add that BOTH white men and white women are racist....but I agree that white men are MORE racist in general than white women and that's a plain simple fact.


L.A.

@Omaar, ye i did think that was the case but saying that, both sexes have been socialised the same way so why would their be a difference in their respective mentalities.

Because men and women are different period.

It's the testosterone factor.

Men are more territorial and protective of their land and property than women.
We're also more violent and aggressive in defending our turf.

The differnce lays in the chemical and brain structure of the sexes.

Men tend to separate.

We see differences and place things in categories of what belongs where; while women tend to include different things and try to fit them together to compliment eachother.

There was a study done here in the US, that showed white American women to be more racist than white American men. I've alsoexperienced this first hand in the work place. Must be different in the UK.


Also seems likealot of youare focused too much on the relationship/dating aspect. Look at the overall picture.
