Actually, that is a good point and something that I noticed before.
For whatever reason, a decent number of preppy Black people don’t get together. I’ve made the same observation about some preppy brehs- they stick with non-Black women.
And I hate to say it, but other races notice this stuff too. If you’re a fit, preppy, cute Black girl you really have NO problem attracting men of other races. NONE. And they will approach if they get the sense you are attracted to them.
And preppy Black guys have women of other races in their faces the time.
Someone I work with, her hubby attended an Ivy for undergrad. They are the typical preppy Black couple. She said when she meets her hubby’s colleagues, etc they always say “Oh wow, I thought he had a white wife”. These are WHITE PEOPLE telling her they assumed her Black husband had a white wife.
It’s like we stereotype our each other to the point that we can’t even connect to someone who is our equivalent.
I find that more common out west.. a lot of people who don’t really know me, based off the first few interactions, assume I have a wife that isn’t black; it’s kind of annoying lol. Out East I never get that. My wife gets that too, she’s West Indian, and very pretty and works in the medical field... we make it a point to say we’re Black and how long we’ve been together... la is just different
