society & race

love.
so like...
i was talking with some classmates today and the subject of interracial couples came up.
and one of the girls said she just didn't understand how a man raised by a black woman or around black women could prefer anything else...
the other girl said she thought white girls only dated black guys for superficial reasons...
like i don't know about you but love..real..legit love is selfish
it doesn't care about race, or ridicule
hate or struggle
judgement or anything......
love cares about itself so if the love is real
or whether it's not
who cares?
as black people i would think we would be sick of the labels
sick of being identified by our race
being defined by it
constantly...
but yet we're always ready to critique and stereotype when it comes to race..
before i am american
before i am black
before i am female
i am human
isn't that most important?
