I always thought things like that were for white males to be honest. Just like how any porn with “Ebony” tacked onto it (ebony women, ebony bbw, ebony teen, etc.) seems to be popular among white males just the same. I’m honestly starting to think they’re obsessed with the stereotype of black men being beasts and bucks with long schlongs lol (not true at all btw). It’s true that black males (men of color in general) fetishize white women and it does have something to do with racism (the self hate and white women being seen as a buffer against experienced racism). There are, however, white women who fetishize black men (and men of color in general). There are women of color who fetishize white men as well as black men. As a black woman myself, I’ve run into plenty of white men who’ve fetishized me. Most of the time it’s accompanied by stereotyped thoughts of how I should act as a black woman. I’m to be open to sex at any time, open to receiving gross behavior, and open to receiving less than white women according to these particular men simply because they’re white and a catch to someone like me. Pfft. Ok. Point is, anyone can fetishize anyone, but if we’re really getting into it, most of the fetishized behavior come from males. The type of man who fetishizes others seem to think they own anything and anyone in their sight.

This is what I was getting at, and I'm sorry you've experienced that. Yes, there is a lot of fetishization going on between different groups, and none of it is good, but it does strike me as weird that it's getting increasingly popular to act like the primary perpetrators of pernicious discrimination are women, and especially white women. I don't think fetishization by white women would be a problem to call out if they weren't deliberately ignoring the bigger elephant in the room with a lot more social power. And in the greater context of what they're doing, it does look sinister.

I have also noticed black women being written out of the script in genderist discourse, including with all of this discussion about biological sex being a tool of colonialism meanwhile black trans-identified males can openly denigrate black women. Meanwhile lesbians are being told creepy shit like there's not much of difference in the skeletal structure of male bodies and black women's bodies so if we're attracted to black women, we have no excuse to not be attracted to males. It's all so disturbing and divisive.
