Hmmm. I've been attracted enough to a few black men and women. And enough to bed them.
I know of history, so I know of what people have gone through. Being abused in my own family (and ignored over it), I can understand emotional burdens.
And in my family if my father knew I had slept with a black man or woman, he'd throw me out of the family emotionally. I know he's a bit racist.
Beyond that I don't understand beingracist. I don't feel anger to someone because of differences.
And, oh, the description of "jungle fever". I guess in Pagan and Sf fandom, the social arenas I circle around in, differences are part of solidarity. Division in those circles come from intellectual property: if Star Wars is better than Star Trek. If skyclad wicca makes any difference. Being openly racist there is to be led back to the opening they came into, and not gently.
