hey black naturals: a question about white boys… ?

someone submitted a problem that isn’t a problem (so i wont be making a graphic of it), but it IS interesting (and they were important to make that distinction). 

the phenomenon of interest was:  “white boys seem to come out of the woodwork asking for your number!”

now again, this wasn’t posed as a problem—i dont want to send the message that interracial boothangs are bad at all, cause they’re not—but it is interesting, and it’s something ive noticed too. 

ive come to the conclusion that white dudes LOVE a black girl with a fro.  seriously.  ive never gotten half this much attention from white dudes before; they are ON IT!  and i live in kentucky!  probably the last place you’d expect this to happen, lol.  i’m not complaining though, even though it does sometimes make me feel fetishized. 

once i meet johnny depp, though, it’s on.

thoughts?  any other folk experience this?
