Out of many, One People...
Jamaicas an Island people, not a race
Jamaicas an Island people, not a race
i have been to jamaica several times, and the women DON'T look like the OPs pictures (for the most part). those pics are a collection of light skinned women that the photographer just happen to catch. trust me, a vast majority of the women in jamaica look like this
nonetheless, tho....
Remember Jamaica is 90% black, however Carnival is generally seen as an "uptown" thing, which is a whole other dynamic into itself. That's when you get into colorism, uptown vs downtown blah blah blah

"We are the Fury"
Lol, no. I went to school in Trinidad for a year.. It was mostly intraracial with some black man dating out. One of my cousins is with an indian girl but everyone else is married black. one of my aunts was disappointed he bred with the girl so you can understand the kind of attitude some Trinis have. the indians like to marry and breed among themselves. they kind of look down on blacks (sum injuns r mixed tho)
Most black men in the Carribean are pretty ignorant and conservative in general (I mean, the base black people, not the "new" people). The poor and average are like nikkas in the south, except more cultured.stripping bytches in the street does happen, rare condom use (higher classes will use condoms and maybe the new teens with education but somebody's always pregnant), beat the p*ssy up so she comes back 4 moreeee
, backshot her behind the school 
. but also go to school and work, w/e, but theres NO liberal/feminism b-bu-buh shyt.

I didn't say interracial marriages were common, I said bw/Indian man is the most common interracial pairing.
You went to school there for a year, my fam from Trinidad and I have been there several times throughout the years.

Well you can only speak of your experience and I can only speak of mine but within all of the families I know (meaning entire families: cousins, aunts uncles, sisters, brothers, nephews, nieces) in Trinidad there is at least one bw/Indian man marriage.
But yes I do agree with you, and as I said before most people do stick to their own race.

You might be talking about your own family, but that doesn't necessarily apply to the country (it is not even clear what you are). Again I have lived and went to school there. Indian men seemed to date Indian women, black men seemed to date black men and sometimes the black men dated out. That is the case in my family and what I saw in the streets.
I'm not taking about just my family but ALL of the families I know, and I'm not just talking "dating" I'm talking marriage.
You seem to be going in circles because I already said that most people stick to their own race so I'm not sure why you keep bringing this up.

That's one anecdote from you which is contradicted from my own anecdote, which comes from living in Trinidad for what amounts to several years whilst growing up. I was right about the intraracial trend because that is obvious and seen within the population (you did not identify it; I did). Indians like to date among themselves, blacks too, and most often the afro trinidadian men date out (when it most often happens). I think Indians like to date whites more than blacks in Trinidad (since there are few whites this isn't common). This is the most common trend I saw. The trends are kind of like America (to a lesser degree). Generally women marry whom they date too (not only there but everywhere).
I said "most people stay to their race" before you did, and you begrudginly agreed with me, which implies I know what I'm talking about. We're discussing the issue because you seem to be disagreeing with me about another point. If it doesn't happen in the streets or in school, it probably doesn't happen at home either. The intraracial thing was obvious in the streets and school, and so followed in the home. Likewise everything else I said.

Dude, I already said you can speak from your own experience and I'll speak from mine. I'm not gonna challenge you on what you saw, but you seemed pretty big on challenging me on what I see. I know more bw/Indian man married couples personally compared to bm/Indian woman married couples. Maybe there is a higher rate of bw/Indian man marriages in the area where my family lives compared to where you were. Who knows, but how can you question me on what I see with my own eyes?
Now you're on some: "I said people marry intraracially before you did so take that."
I never questioned that or implied it was the opposite with my original statement so what are you harping on about.

The female tendency to equivocate, to "agree to disagree, both our opinions are right" is a copout. One of us is wrong, one of us is right, that's a fact
. That you have seen something with your own eyes does not make your wider assertion correct. I might have seen a skunk in my former neighborhood, that does not mean skunks are everywhere or skunks are more common than racc00ns. I'm using all available evidence to determine who is most right. There's a lot of myths going around about the Carribean (i.e. most Jamaicans being light skin rather than specifically choosing to c00n, for example) so I'm going to help dispel some of those myths. 
My experience generalizes to the streets and in school in an urban environment, which I think is more representative of the country than anything else. That you would even imply that women don't typically marry who they date is preposterous so I'm not sure I even want to continue this conversation
. Trinidad is segregated to an extent. If the trend is to marry intraracially, wouldn't that presuppose women marry who they date? The trends I saw are similar to the USA as apples to black men and women (with some more racialism involved). So that means BM date out more than BW and it's more common for BM-(insert) than anything else. Using Occam's Razor, I'm probably right. Now you're on some: "I said people marry intraracially before you did so take that."
The fact I made an affirmative correct statement about one part of the country's demography implies I know what I'm talking about. The fact you simply agreed doesn't prove you know what you're talking about. It's like when someone gives an answer to a math question 2+2=4 and another person looks at the question, thinks about it for a second (far less than the person who came up with the answer) and says "I don't disagree". You didn't show you know what you were talking about by agreeing.
