I disagree
I do too
I think bruh only talking about women that are bordering dime status
7s and up
I'm not saying that non-BW don't value looks and height. It just isn't as high on their priority list as BW. They care way more about financial security. A couple years ago out of curiosity I straight up asked several WW I went to school or worked with if they have a height standard and they all said they just want a dude at least 2-3 inches taller than them. Black women who work as professional matchmakers have said the same thing.
WE ASKED TWO BLACK WOMEN HELPING OTHER SISTERS FIND LOVE WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON WITH THE DATING SCENE.
ESSENCE.COM: Do you feel Black women and men are too particular when it comes to potential dating candidates?
FISHER: We found that as opposed to the White clients that we’ve had, Black women are usually looking for physical attributes first. We look for someone who is attractive to us and then we pick up on his hobbies, interests and values. Whereas, White clients are looking for the reverse first. What kind of job does he have? Is he going to be able to provide? Then they circle back.
GILMORE: We’re the first ones to look at men’s bodies and how attractive they are whereas our White clients have a long list of requirements of things like character and integrity…
FISHER: …and, then down the line, it backfires for us because you were never a compatible mix to start with.
ESSENCE.COM: Do Black women have realistic dating pool expectations?
GILMORE: We have clients that have a long laundry list of requirements—6 foot 4, with a Ph.D., never been married, no children, in his late 30s or early 40s—and a lot of times we then ask them, well, what are you bringing to the table? And, the answer is nowhere near all that. Why would you expect someone to have more than what you’re offering?
