Honestly it's because in Britain it seems that the Black male+White female is common. That's still pretty taboo over here.
Why is it assumed that every biracial person will marry and procreate with white people?
How exactly is it different? Not being contentious.
Honestly the same thing applies here...does a man want to choose from 1 million women or 30 million women?
"The beast" didn't "make" any of these men anything.

I hear what @channelblond is saying
A lot of the social economic divide can be even put on a north south divide.
But numbers are the only thing that can do the talking.
But we don’t have it as bad as some black Americans. That’s why I despise UK rap when they say “only had 2 choices: rap or ball”
And I’m saying this as a 32 year old black British African with a BSc, MSc and a £70-80k job. My family weren’t much in this country. But if you study, work hard and do your job it’s hard to fail in this country. Anecdotal evidence I know...
That ain’t a black or white ting.
And I agree with this
Not the fact am I going to not approach non black women, but rather when I approach women, they’ll more likely not be black because of those stats.

If you are black, got a hustle mentality, sense of grit and educated in a profitable skill.......I don't see how you can fail in this city
Anecdotal experience........my parents are straight from West Africa, they had to clean toilets to survive in this country, when they were studying for their bachelors
Now in assets alone their millionaires.
Also to your point on rappers, the influence on American culture is very strong......completely agree on that point.

West African parents too
My mum worked in bingo hall and every Friday night we’d wait up until she got home as she’s bring us food that they were throwing out, like chips and cake.
Or I’d roll around with my mum on Saturdays whilst she went to peoples homes to wipe their shyt from their arse just to provide for us.
She graduated uni in her 50s. All just to provide for us
From that I learnt never to rest and keep pushing. She just got the papers to say she owns her house in full and she is an immigrant to this country.
This country gives us so much. You just need to reach out and grab it rather than letting it come to you

I may not be from the UK(though i do travel there since i got family in London and Manchester) but everything else in the post is exactly what my mom(and dad too) went through to provide for us. My parents had to start over from scratch since their previous jobs in West Africa didn't necessarily translate into a nice cushion job for them here in America.
My mom used to nanny for rich white families and my dad used to be a security guard in NYC while they were getting their degrees and medical residencies.
We were living in a tall ass housing project(what you guys over there call council estates right?) in South Bronx at the time and i barely saw my parents take a break for anything while my aunties pretty much did much of the cooking since she lived nearby.
Now, the grinding and hustling my parents went through finally paid off as my moms is a well paid nurse making over $120k and my dad a doctor bringing in over $300k with us owning our nice 4 bedroom home in the nearby suburbs away from our old hood.
And even now my mum hasn't even stopped studying despite the money she's bringing in now, now she's finishing her PhD.
It's because of them that I never gave up on my studies. WA parents don't play around man

The only time I saw a lot of black Brits when I was in London was during Carnival. I stayed for five months in Kensington and Mayfair. I mean there are 61 million people total in the UK, there are anywhere from 40-70 million black or bi-racial black people in America. Doesn't seem to be an apples to apples comparison here.
For one, they don’t have 400+ years of slavery in their history. The racism there isn’t built into the fabric of the society the way it is in the US. Black ppl and white ppl don’t live as far apart from each other as they do in the US and from what I’ve seen, they share more of a culture with each other than Black ppl and white folk do in the US. It’s hard to explain, but there appears to be less venom between Black and white ppl in the UK.
I’m having trouble explaining it...but when you go to the UK you feel it. Race just seems to be less of a hang up over there in general.

We call them council estates yep
But yeah sound story. I guess most of us are inspired by our parents.
Salute to your parents too bro
But I never want my child to go through what I had to. Those were some dark times

I know what you're getting at and you're right. I've lived in London all my life and for the most part it's very multicultural.
Don't get me wrong there are areas and neighbourhoods that are predominately black or have a significantly higher black population than others, but these areas are dotted around the city, mainly concentrated in South, East and NW. Where as in America you'll have an entire side of a city that is predominately black, like I said it's segregation.
You've also got to understand that it's very common to have a crime ridden council estate populated by poor working class people right next to privately owned houses worth millions. It's a strange set up but it's just how it is. Everyone just lives side by side. Racial tension only really comes into play with the police (as far as London goes anyway, cities in the Midlands and up north have seen their fair share of racial conflict between blacks, asians and whites).
But having said all of this racism and discrimination against black people is very much alive in the UK.
Obviously, but people just don't talk about racism out here in the UK like they do in the US.
But some would argue that Jim Crow laws and Sundown town were a Southern thing in the US as well. However, does that mean those on the West Coast, North, and Mid-west in the US didn't go through whatever they went through in terms of hateful racism? The 60s in the UK were just as bad as it was in the US, those who lived through it, would tell you that. Even David Olusoga who's mixed with a white mum and lived through the 70s UK, shared the horrific things he went through as a kid.
Regardless, the emboldened excerpt of your post is the only thing I care about. Since you agree with me, there's no point dragging the issue.
You lot need to start talking about your bits in London and stop making blanket statements about everywhere else. I can't relate to this.Where in London are you from?
I'm from South London (the real South) and I seldom see mandem with white tings. My circle of friends alone is bigger than 20 and no one is dating a white ting. Mandem beat white tings from time to time but no one is wifeying or procreating with them tings there. You mans just give this overblown shyt too much air and you gas the ting up. London is small but it's also very big as well and mandem do different things in different endz. Just allow it and relate your experience and your bits, without speaking for everyone else.
You're a beg and it's very obvious in your posts. What type of London man talks about "easy beer money"? You sound Aff asf.
Anyway, I'm from South London (the real South London - Lambeth, Southwark, and Lewisham boroughs). So since you're claiming Greenwich, we're going to have to do this based on who you know and the schools you attended. I used to jam around those parts when I was in school and I done a year in college there, before transferring to a college in my bits. And my cousins went to Woolwich Poly and Plumstead Manor. Evidently, that should tell you I know mandem from there from way back and man used to be out there a lot back in day - from Greenwich, all the way to Thamsmead/Erith/Bexleyheath/Eltham. Back when mandem used to beef with those white yutes and when black people just started moving to them endz from other parts of South London. And that's also where the pengest naija tings in South London live.
We're going to start with your age. How old are you? If I start asking you to describe what mandem from your bits who're major look like and you can't describe them, then we're gonna have a problem.
How old are you and are you a male or a female?
