“now using a sketch suggesting white women use black men's bodies for sex”

This does happen. A lot. And is worth acknowledging and talking about as it’s a huge issue for my community. I have no problem with this being called out and I’m glad they did.

“(meanwhile, men in mass exploit, degrade, buy, sell and objectify female bodies on an hourly basis across the world):”

Both are true. Both are wrong. Both are worth being discussed. I’m not equating white women who exploit black men with the objectification of female bodies- I’m saying the objectification of female bodies doesn’t give the white women that sketch was making fun of carte blanche (accident- Lol) to fetishize and exploit black men.

“last week that pointed to the absurdity of white women equating their oppression with racial oppression.”

Idk your race, but if you’re not black it may be best not to speak on that if you’re not well informed (I say this as politely as possible, and mean no offense)

So here's a question that i always want to ask in this convo but it never seems appropriate.

Who is all the "BBC destroys white teen pussy" porn for? I've seen a lot of people saying it's for white women, and I don't know, there's so much of it professionally produced that I find it hard to believe.

I guess I struggle from it because of my perspective, as a white woman who has dealt with men of color being really creepy/fetishistic over my being white. I get that preference for white women is absolutely part of racism and related to denigration of WoC, but I guess I see race and patriarchy intersecting in a weird way when followed to my car by a dude saying really weird shit about my skin color.

No porn is made for women. As a white woman who was used by a black man for my whiteness, I think patriarchy and racism is a lot more complicated than the original comment implies.
