:
Shocked that he has a baby now and I've heard nothing about it until now? VERY Shocked that she's spanish? NO I used to love fab but he has expressed plenty of times that he mainly likes women of spanish decent. The only black woman I've ever heard of him dating was Ester Baxter. Must come from his Dominican roots.
I'm sorry, idk why people say there are black spanish people and black dominicans...to me they are NOT black, but I guess that's just me. I acknowledge people for what they are and unless you aren't african-american, you aren't black to me.
Why are some black females so fixated on black guys dating outside their race? Stop showing ur insecurities and let people live their lives. Mixed is a beautiful thing. Stop hating on these black men and congratulate them for not being a statistic in the system! Just as predjudice as the next person...***!! I'm half Italian and Half black....am i SUPPOSED to date just black guys cause im more black looking than I am italian?
Fab is hispanic so I dont see ur point!
first of all not all dominicans are black, yes the majority have african ancestry but that does not equate to all dominicans being black. have you ever been to the DR.
and stop with the madness of why he doesn't have a black chick on his arm, he is entitled to date whomever he wishes. I went to high school with Fab, *** out to Art & Design High School, and if you went to school there or hung out with him or his peeps you would know the demographics of the school or the environment he grew up in.
just like I grew up in park slope which has pretty much always been a mixed neighborhood which is why I have a variety of friends.
I don't see what the problem is with this pic. "dang fab, i thought you would have a sista on your arm. dam shame!" Why would it be a shame??? Fabo's hispanic, why would it be wrong for him to get with a hispanic??? I wouldn't be angry if a hispanic dude got with a black chick. Racist muhfcukaz. I'm Cuban and even I got black folks in my family, just like most latinos.
i always heard that he didnt mess with black girls, only spanish....you missin out papa!
&& im no hater..his BM is cute in an average BX latina-chica kinda looking way...the baby is adorable... but yo...with me he woulda really went "From Nothing to Something" LMAO
im dumb. Fab you still my fav rapper. NY all day.

Black doesn't only equate to African Americans. some Latinos have Black African ancestry due to slavery. The reason why my Afrikan Latinos speak Spanish has something to do with their slave masters or colonizers,( whatever makes you feel better), who spoke Spanish and of course the Afrikan slaves that lived in these Latino countries picked up on their slave masters language.
Cubans play Afro Cuban music, some Latinos call themselves Afro-Latino because they are proud of their Afrikan heritage....all Latinos , I don't care were you are from have some Afrikan blood running through their veins and another thing I think people need to take a Latino studies class so hat they can discover their "darker" side. Be proud my Afrikan Latinos....now back to our regular scheduled presentation...
There is nothing wrong with Fab dating a beautiful Afro-Latina , we are all the same the only difference is we speak the language of our English slave masters and they speak the language of their Spanish slave masters..Uhuru
YA'LL STUPID. "FAB WHY IT COULDNT BE A SISTER", IS THE MOST DUMB QUESTION YA'LL ASK ON HERE. WHO SAID ITS A RULE WHERE YOU HAVE TO DATE A SISTER. GTFOH. BY THE WAY FAB IS HISPANIC SO THE "LATIN" *** EVEN BE IN THE HEADLINE BECAUSE FAB IS THE SAME THING (DOMINICAN) AND EVEN IF HE WASNT ITS STILL LAME TO PUT LATIN IN THERE. GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT!!!
@gothwh0re-blk dominicans that look like BLACK AMERICANS..they look BLACK PERIOD! there are different types of BLACK PPL you effin moron..get out of the f*ckin boonies b!tch & pay the heights a visit *** you'll know what i'm talking about.
my mother is black and she's hispanic..and my dad is black american but looks white...i claim BOTH
stick to what YOU know gringa..you're prolly a dumb polish b!tch
I'm not tripping on his bm or nothing like that its whatever, but i am tripping on all ya'll hoes talking bout he dominican and ***. Last time i chacked this is *** america and if yo mamas mama is black yo *** is considered black here. So ya'll can cut the bs, idk maybe its just tha south in me but ya need 2 get off that Tiger Woods ***. Take yo azz 2 alabama and ask one of them white folks what he is and they gon tell yo azz he a ***. Also 2 u numbskulls puerto ricans and dominicans orginate in an africa, look dat *** up.
Well, I think she is madd fly! (no ***) But atleast she aint all bony and sick looking. I think the thick dominicans are hott! Good pic Fab... She look down to earth, ya know, like she got a lil hood in her and will not hesitate to cuss a motherf^cka out!! Real Talk. Fab isnt hott to me anyway..So, looks like she did him a favor! Lol
I'm Cuban and I live in Miami which is a city full of different races and people of different ethnic backgrounds and I decided to move to ft. myers florida which is only 2 hrs away 4rm Miami.... Soon as I get there the rednex are calling me the "***" word and my neighbor was a clan member. Needless to say I moved back to Miami where I am accepted and would never go to live in a hick town again! The moral of this story is that to racist white folks, blacks and latinos are the same. Whites wouldn't even speak to me out there, I stuck with my few black people and latinos... cuz we always stick together and that's how it should always be.
@ iCanMakeiTJuicy4Ya: GIVE ME DAP FOR DAT!!! b/c STUPID GOTHHORE IS SO RACIST! I ALSO AGREE WITH noap.....hispanics is hispanic. yes we do have black spanish people in our family but there not consider african american, there just a darker version OF LATINOS. fab cute baby!!!! big-up for that latinos. PR BABY!!!
mto yall crack me up, now what was the significance of throwing the girls race out there. once again yall trying to start a "race war" and based on some of these comments, its looks like yall well on ur way of succeeding.......AGAIN *SMH* people no matter how much u argue about what race you think a person SHOULD date, they still goin to do what they want, so chalk it up. anywayz thats one cute chunky baby, and the bm is pretty too.
@terika83 I'm sorry, idk why people say there are black spanish people and black dominicans...to me they are NOT black, but I guess that's just me. I acknowledge people for what they are and unless you aren't african-american, you aren't black to me. *************************************************** Wow, no disrespect but we(African slaves) were dropped off on many islands before the bulk of us reached the 13 colonies of the US. Growing up in Miami i've seen cubans, panamanians, dominicans and african americans (just to name a few) in all beautiful shades of blackness, sooooooooo learn ur truth.
Aww- I wish them the best. Hope that he'll be a good daddy.
Umm... I though that Fab's mum was from the Caribbean island of Dominica (google it!), not to be confused with the Dominican Republic which is between Cuba and Puerto Rico. Last time I checked almost 90% of Dominica's popoulation was black and not Spanish...I'm just saying.
Hopefully this will make him grow up and stop hanging with his boys trying to rob other celebrities.
Speaking on his girl.. Listen she is black stop with the nonsense.
Black peopel kill me with this classification of who is black and who's not.
Bottom line is the girl is Dominican and they are Black
they are just spanish speaking N1ggers.. Who cares if most tdon't think they are black.. you got black peple here who don't think they are black..
You ask half of these black females here what are they and they will tell you everything under the sun other than black.
some will even say they are mixed with something.
so it is all the same...
stop with all this divide and conquesr nonsense.
@JackieG81
I AM NO RACIST. Despite the fact others may say different. I just respect people who are honest. I'm a woman and proud of it.I don't have to act like a man for them to respect me. i.e. the sexist males. If you're "part" Black or have African ancestry be proud of it and don't let racist make you run away from your ethnic background. A lot of "Hispanics" do. That was my basic point.
@CINCITY
A point that a dumb b!tch like you can't seem to understand. Let's not go down this road again bc everybody black ,white and "hispanic" kicked your *** on the last topic like this...and ran you out. You can say you're Hispanic fine, but we all know that's not a separate race. You're basically mulattoes or some kind of mix with Indians, that speak Spanish. Get over yourselves! Oh and btw my finance is BLACK by way of DR and he proudly states he's BLACK.So don't try that racist ***. Your actually more racist then you realize.I respect my man bc he doesn't kiss *** and try to be phony.You look no different then TI's wife and she's black so please stop fooling yourself into thinking you're so different. Because apparently ignorant white people like JackieG81 met in FT.Myers can't tell the difference and will still call you the *** word. a-hole!
please cincity, you dont need a f*ckin polish bi0tch schooling you on where the f*ck YOU'RE FROM! nobody gives a flying rat's (_|_) if her man blk, she still dont know ***...clearly gothwh0re we all f*ckin KNOW we hispanics are all mutts, dont need your stupid(_|_) clarifying ***, stick to what you know b!tch...go suck your blk man's d!ck thats all you wh!te *** are real good at
Oh boy not this argument again.What's the world coming to when gothgirl makes the most sense on the topic? SMDH.
Congrats to Fab first and foremost!
Some of you try to be so clever with this ,we're not African Americans,why can't we be Hispanic stuff. That's not the heart of the debate though people. The main point is, are you Black, White or WTF. Some of you want to deny your Black side when convenient. That's why some of us, stress more unifying terms like Black people rather then African American. Fab looks no different then a brother you may find from America,DR,Sudan,,Liberia,Trinidad,Jamaica or Honduras to me. He is Black first and Latino second,let's be clear. Now, will his child or the child's offspring, represent it's Black roots in the future or run and hide under some meaningless generic name like Hispanic? Hmmmmm. That's the question some of us Black people would like to know.Don't be cool with us today and then turn your backs on us tomorrow. That nonsense is getting tired and we Black people are starting to take notes.
@nubiangoddess-hmmm the same way some of us blk people hide under some "meaningless" shade of color regardless of race by stating "i'm lightskinned, i'm darkskinned"..dont get it twisted, my nationality is puertorican & blk..it is what it is..***, i'm darker than you lol so yea i'm black...and not to mention this statement "Don't be cool with us today and then turn your backs on us tomorrow" please girl, blk and white ppl are the 1st ppl calling a hispanic person MEXICAN lol..my point is stop acting like you dont make your racial comments, EVERY person on here has made a stupid remark.
i dont see what the problem is with me saying i'm proud to be half latin/half blk? it is what it is..i'm proud to be overall BLK! i never once stated i wanna b white or something else..you dont like what i gotta say, too effin bad...skip over my comments boo..b happy with who you are, i know i am ;-)
Tasty-..him being on the DL - dont have anything to do w/ him having a baby hon....but he is one i havent heard as one of the flip flop boys..
Just hope he is a good dad- and take care of his responsibilities..thats it.. That baby looks nothingggggggggggggg ggg like him though- maybe as time progress
gothgirl- Let me quote you on what you said on that past thread....
"Hold on a minute. Let me leave the Black chicks alone for a second and mess with these BEANERS.
@CINCITY
Are you Dominican? You look like a light skin Black person. Being Dominican,PR,or Mexican is not a race. YOU ARE BLACK ! You guys always want to separate yourselves from everyone else. THAT'S WHY I DON'T LIKE YOU PEOPLE. Learn English and respect you real heritage. Then you'll earn my respect.Dismissed!" [SPAM][SPAM]____________
That sounds pretty prejudiced to me, I would NEVER say "THAT'S WHY I DON'T LIKE YOU PEOPLE" because I judge people according to how they are as individuals and not as a whole, because everyone is not the same. I guess you find it entertaining to put down people that are not of your race. You'll have to forgive me, but I think that your retort was ignorant and mindless being that you couldn't reply back to CINCITY without keeping your composure and felt the need to call out racial slurs to the hispanic people as a whole. That was very disrespectful, I truly don't know why you're trying to talk to me on this thread, I never said anything to you, or about you. You don't know me, yet you disrespected me since you're speaking to people as a whole.

*** I didn't know people really cared about Fabolous like that...And I can't believe anyone's surprised? He said he was half Dominican and his videos clearly showed his preference...And I do know one of his parents are AA with a last name like Jackson.
And I wish people would just stop trying to sing "We are the World"...We already know alot of Hispanics would be offended if someone mistakes them for or call them Black...Just pick a side and stick with it...Too much flip-flopping...
yea fab is latino. I knew he liked them latinas cause in 90% of his videos the main girl in latina. But y couldn't he get a darker skinned latina. I heard in some latin countries the lighter latinos are racist toward the black or darker skinned latinos. Carmelo Anthony is half latino & he goes with lala, but at least she is a black latina.
Why the emphasis on the fact that the woman's Latina? MTO needs to stop trying to give black women a complex about interracial dating. Every day there's a post on this site talking about some dude and the non-black woman he's dating. So what, that's their business. Some men like women of different races, some men like sisters, some men like men. It's different strokes for different folks and I'm not going to lose a ***'s sleep because Fabulous baby's mama isn't black. As long as they're not on some white is right or "dark ***" ***#it, it's no skin off my nose.
Got *** this is funny! I agree with NubianGoddess, what the hell is going on when Gothgirl starts kickin more sense then anybody else?!???? WTF?
Anyways, I think his son's mother is pretty, a lil pudgy from the baby weight but she can sweat that off (hopefully). I'm sure Fab will do right by his child, he's not a teenager anymore so I think this family will be fine.
Bravo @ Nubian Goddess- You are stunning and equally as intelligent.
@gothgirl- Bravo again. Don't let them *** you. There is no place for racist here and you have every right to voice your opinion with dignity and mutual respect.
@TastylikePastry You are a very pretty woman but that nasty soup cooler comment detracts from your beauty. I would expect that from a gutter snipe white pig like [EXPLETIVE] Devil. Shame on you for that.
@Topic Congratulations to the guy.
@CINCITY. Maybe its just me but I am missing your point. You say "hispanics is hispanic. yes we do have black spanish people in our family but there not consider african american, there just a darker version OF LATINOS."
Think about it. I don't think anyone is saying black lations are African American. You said yourself that "we do have black spanish people in our family." well there you go, if you are of darker skin you are considered black. No one said anything about your origin. Racist people don't care about your origin, if they see black they see black...My point is no one is "accusing" black latinos of being african american if that's whats 'offending' you.
RACISM IS THE LIFELINE OF THE IGNORANT. MOST OF YOU FEMALES ARGUING THIS POINT MORE THAN LIKELY AIN'T ***. COULDN'T RECOGNIZE A GOOD DUDE IF THE *** CAME TO YOU WITH A SIGN ON HIS CHEST. AND IF YOU DID RECOGNIZE HIM YOU COULDN'T HOLD ON TO HIM. THAT'S YOUR FAULT NOT NOBODY ELSE. MOST LATINAS THAT I'VE DATED HAVE ATTEMPTED TO FULFILL ANY NEED I'VE HAD. DON'T GO CRAZY LATINAS SOME OF YA'LL IS LOCO FOR REAL. LOL. IT'S ALL ABOUT WHO GONNA TREAT YOU GOOD. BE IT BLACK WOMAN, WHITE WOMAN, LATINA WOMAN, OR ASIAN WOMAN.
SOME PEOPLE SO USED TO LOSING THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY'VE WON.
Everytime race comes up, the topic gets ugly.
We ALL better be lucky we live in the US, because we could be killed, mutilated, disowned, stoned to death, tortured and have our families put to shame because of some of freedoms we have over here (***/***, abortions, pre-marital ***, interracial dating, just to name a few). Let's not forget that.
I know you guys remember the father who killed his daughter because she liked an American soldier. And on top of that, her brothers aided in her death. He justified it by saying she was no longer a virgin or some weird BS like that. Let's not forget that.
I soo hate Fab for this!! Like I alwayz knw he liked Latina women but didn't thnk he would actually have a baby with one..Our black men jst dnt luv us anymore..(how sad!!) Like wht could these men have in common with these white and Latina women..Come on Fab..I knw u from tha hood..why not wife up a nice African American women...we go through the wire with our Black men and thy jst dnt love us no more...I love my Black men and I will continue to ride out with yall...It kills me tht theres African American men out there tht choose any other race of women to be with other thn their own..wht a shame..
thas good, let them do them.
MsSayinWhatiFeel: well lookin at you, and how alot of sistas act nowadays, can u blame the brotha? blackexec: exactly. i want a body like yours. where should i go www.[SPAM].com maybe? lol j/*** no hate, do it big bro lovelyvelyfe: finally, someone has spoken with intelligence mrnotiq: im sure many have passed on you lol selene25: i agree. your avatar is hot ma, it actually shows more personality than alot of these peeps wit they pics up soulsangr: et tu brute? i remember seein the video in high school when he wuz the last to stab him. see how best friends do lol iCanMakeiTJuicy4Ya: no u didnt call gothgirl a gringa lol...das funny Drea2660: and what would be the problem if she was white? oh i know, the problem would be he, as well as many other brothas, dont want yo nasty *** lol JackieG81: the blacks and latinos dont want you around either...maybe its jus you lol jayanderson07: if i were u, id be grateful to get any woman lol tjtrae1: well then she'll join you with being fat HarlemHustle: couldna said it better myself abrial: you sound like a bitter ***, das y black men don't want you lol
NOW as far as all this bullsh*t about dating outside your race...educate yourself, and grow the *** up. only ignorance can harbor racism. I am multi-racial, I come from a multi-racial family that consists of filipinos, blacks, whites, and dominicans. ive grown up in all black neighborhoods and have experienced racism from all races in my lifetime. to be honest, ive experienced way more racism from black people than white people, or any other race. in my family (and how the world should be) race is the last thing we would ever consider a factor in dating/accepting a person. grow the fu*k up people
@[EXPLETIVE] Devil Why are you even commenting on "OUR" site if you feel so much hatred for us? Do you hate our sometimes ignorant ways or do you REALLY hate the fact that when we actually want to do something we excell? Do you hate our incorrect grammar or do you hate our naturally full lips, rounded ***, athletic skills? Do you hate our natural tan skin? Is it our stubborn ignorant "Do NOT Want To Learn" ways or do you hate the fact that we are what you could never be? Why infiltrate our site if you have so much hatred? Go elsewhere. We are here for fun NOT hate.
JESUS and CBLOXIE (and other arrogant self centered homely looking latina women who think like them) hate to burst your bubble but there is a reason SOOOO many spaniards are dark (at least 50% in the DR) and it's NOT because the brothers' prefer latin women. I know you want everyone to believe that because YOU have low self esteem and need reassurance that your race is so sought after by the most hated race in the world (BLACKS).
Most Black people in the Americas are not as ebony as their African brothers and sisters because of BLACK WOMEN. Yes read it and weep. It is a fact that can be backed up by statistics and common sense. Black women were impregnated by white europeans (yes including your dear dear SPANISH MEN) in higher rates than the measley LESS THAN 5% of Hispanic women in interracial relationships today. So if I go by your philosophy...and do the math..that means that latin women (non black) are one of the LEAST desireable women around. Now let that sink in and get back at me MANANA!
Romaine Flag post thas good, let them do them.
MsSayinWhatiFeel: well lookin at you, and how alot of sistas act nowadays, can u blame the brotha? [SPAM][SPAM]___________
Please tell me that you are just pretending to be some mixed up confused mutt of a hoe. Cuz if not how in the *** can your HALF Black a$$ vouch for 'brothas' or 'sistas' when you already stated that you have experienced more racism from Blacks than anyone else (I'm assuming due to your WHITE side)? Why do the most confused mixed chicks always wanna run their mouth about what Black people want when the same people NEVER ACCEPTED THEM according to them??? lmao..makes no sense.
This is the main reason why MANY interracial couples do not need to procreate. Look at how confused this poor thang is. She don't know if she like's being a 'sister' or if she hates 'them'.

It doesn't matter that you CHOOSE not to accept black people as black just because of where they are born. They are still Black and have just as much Black DNA as you do, so just save it. You are AFRICAN AMERICAN. African Caribbean, African Spanish, African AMericans, AFRICANS ARE ALL BLACK. Can't stand when some uneducated African American tries to steal the title BLACK all for themselves as though they are somehow more black simply because they live around more white people!!???
Go seperate yourself all you want it doesn't change the fact.
What is wrong exactly with saying you are Dominican and not black? How can you expect Dominicans to call themselves black when their culture is completely different and they have a completely different language? Why do you expect them to only identify as being black when so many are mixed? I don't see you guys capping on Irish people and telling them just to say their white and not Irish, or Cape Verdeans when they say the are from Cape Verde.
I am a light skinned Dominican, and I say that I am DOMINICAN. Why? Because that's where I was born and raised. Does that mean that I don't know I have some black in me? No. Am I going to sit there and explain to everyone who asks that my grandmother is half asian but was born in Dominican Republic. That my grandfather has Spanish and Italian blood, and that my father has black blood. No. I just say I'm Dominican which is because I was born and raised there and so were my parents and grandparents!
I am so tired of black people putting down their own and other minorities. You guys are gonna hate on a light skinned black girl or the white or Puerto Rican girl. You guys are going to talk *** about how "He only dates light girls with silky straight hair" and then go out and buy yourself a wig that resembles white girl hair. You talk *** about how you "love your brown skin" but run from the sun cause you don't want to be dark and "ugly". You want to put down the light skinned hispanics because they don't claim they're black but then when they do you say " Oh please you wish you were, you're not black look at your skin". You want people to acknowledge black music, the beauty of black women and black men but as soon as they have any of these its " Oh there they go taking away something from us again". This famous black celebrity who I don't even know, will never meet, doesn't care about me is dating a light skinned girl, Oh boo hoo, poor me, lets have a pity party.
You want to be accepted but alot of you guys (especially girls) can't even accept your own. You don't want people to be racist towards you but you have every right to put down other races and especially your own. You want to be accepted by white people but then put down a black man when he goes out with a white girl. I am so tired of the statement "There goes another black good man to a white woman". You weren't saying he was a good man before he got with the white girl. It's like the only way you can acknowledge the goodness of your own is if another race values one black man. And that is sad, it's a disgrace, it's embarrassing and it shows all of your own insecurities.
LOL...well first of all my name is ROMAINE...thats a GUYS name. Im a DUDE you dumb trick lol, the fact you got THAT wrong, already shows me you're stupid.
You know why black men flee from women like you? (and this is directed to her, not ALL black women)...Because instead of hearing you *** 24/7 to a brotha bout how he dont know how to treat a sista, he runs to a white or latina chick whose main focus is on pleasing and making her man happy. *** like you are the reason why brothas flee

Roman Romaine whatever is NOT A NAME THAT IS USED HEAVILY IN MY BLACK RACE. If you were mistaken for a CHICK it is because you talk and act like one. Stop acting like a little *** and then you will get recognized as a man. The same statement still stands. WHY IS IT THAT THE MIXED UP CONFUSED PEOPLE ALWAYS WANNA ACT LIKE EXPERTS ON THE PEOPLE THEY CLAIM NEVER LIKED THEM AND THAT THEY OBVIOUSLY DO NOT LIKE? You could never preach to me about what Black men want because you don't know. When I want to know that I will ask my MAN who is BLACK not some confused mixed dude holding a grudge against black women for not wanting him because yellow dudes went out with fanny packs. Got it?
@nylaisalwaysnice
"You guys are going to hate on light-skin Blacks"? Sweetie some of the most pro-black people are or have been LIGHTER SKINNED...Angela Davis, Malcom X, Rosa Parks, and many many more...Don't dare disrespect my ancestors by trying to separate them in your rant against Blacks...
If you're tired of people talking about it, you know how to log off...On Black sites, you will have this...Just like on BET,BFC, or TVONE you would mostly have things that relate to Blacks...
And just an FYI, there are Black men on this site that feel the same way that alot of Black women do...And some have even voiced their opinion on how Telemundo do not have any Blacks but yet BET wants to throw on a Latin host...So where's the equality in that? Do you ever go to telemundo and preach this *** to them?
See that is what I'm talking about...People want Black people to let them in but they want to keep their *** all to themselves...
It's funny how people want to get a piece of the Black culture and get offended when Blacks call them out on it, but hey, we don't get much love from anyone else's...Do we??
And just an FYI, I don't have a problem with PR, Domicans, or lighter skinned Blacks(being that I am one myself) but your post sounds like you're directing your comments at darker-skinned Black women and I must ask you since you want to sing this we are the world ***, how come there aren't MORE darker-skinned Black women on television or in Hollywood, etc PERIOD? I'll tell you why...RACISM.
You don't want to be called Black, but yet you sit here and post all day on a Black site...Good grief...
So unless you've lived your life as a Black woman, don't try and tell Blacks how to feel...
@nylaisalwaysnice why didn't you educate everyone on the fact that the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC shares the same island as HAITI. Why don't you include Haitians in your little education? You know why? Because you know *** well they aren't going out like many of the lost BLACK Dominicans who all of a sudden want to separate themselves from a once very prosperous Black nation who is their neighbors and a very beautiful race of people. If you had any sense you would know that CULTURE, NATIONALITY, and RACE are all different concepts. When referring to your NATIONALITY please stop using RACE. That is like me saying that because my Black family moved to China decades ago we are all of a sudden considered mongoloids or asians. Dominican Republic = place while Black = race.
Quite frankly I would prefer if more people who choose to ignore their Blackness would also just stay clear of Blacks all together. Somehow their poisonous self hate seeps into my people and helps destroy their pride.

I am sure all the HELL NO I AIN'T BLACK spanish people are so proud of you. Thank god I have actually TRAVELLED and know that there are BLACK CUBANS (which I already stated ABOVE you moron) and that I can tell the difference between the BLACK being race and the CUBAN being place of origin.
Maybe your grandma should spring for you to go back to Cuba. They have an excellent education system. Obviously you aren't benefitting from the one up here...
I hope Romaine is NOT a Black man...please tell me he is not...Calling Realwoman a"***" and then talking about how sisters are acting? So only Black women can "act up"?
Funny because my man grew up in Brooklyn and he has stories for days regarding alot of the Latin chicks he encountered over the past...
See I guess only Black men who aren't used to anything think non Black women are more special...because mine sure doesn't think that...

DOMINCANS are predominantly of AFRICAN and "INDIAN" decent. They share the ISLAND with HAITI.
Its not any different that an AFRICAN AMERICAN person and a JAMAICAN getting together. BLACK IS BLACK...we come in all shades and textures and we speak many languages and DIALECTS.
To say FAB is "HALF DOMINICAN" is such a waste of time. Or to make a big deal of his lady being LATIN...she looks like alot of SISTA's I KNOW...some of you REALLLY need to see the world..its pretty sad.
Im impressed that shes not a model chick..she looks like a real girl. That baby is just EDIBLE!!!9386
FendiFiend: I for one do no use the *** word at all.
I am not talking about being confused as a black as I had stated in my last post that my father had black ancestors, therefore I do have black blood. I was never denying anything. I was talking about how some black folks get mad when hispanics don't acknowledge being part black (for example Dominicans) but when some hispanics do they get mad. So either way you are screwed even when you do say you have black blood when you do!!!
I don't know why you say that I don't want to be called black. I have called myself black and some black people get mad about it. I do know that I do have black blood, but I don't identify solely with being black because my family is very mixed like most Dominicans are. Does it make any sense for me to only call myself black knowing that I am not solely black? And how am I denying who I am by clearly saying that I am mixed including black?
I know that some hispanics are ignorant about their ancestors but I do also know that alot of hispanics know they are mixed as well as Dominicans. When I tell people I am Dominican I am assuming that they already know my background and know that all Dominicans are mixed it's not my duty to tell them that I have black blood, Spain, Italian, and Asian. It's not my duty to educate people and tell them about how my ancestors or w/e ended up in Dominican Republic, and if you think I am trying to deny who I am than so be it, it doesn't change the fact that I am mixed.
Are you telling me that I don't respect black people? I never said I don't. I just don't like it when people bash other people for their preference in a girl or guy, especially their own.
Lexia: Alright, most of the pro black people are or have been light skinned. So why don't you tell that to black people who like to bash other black people who are lighter? I am not trying to separate anyone in my "rant".... black people have separated themselves enough, if you need proof just look at the comments above and any article that has a dark black guy with a light skinned black girl. Blacks don't need any help separating themselves they are doing a pretty good job at it already. So much for black power.
And yes my post was directed at dark skinned girls who say they embrace their dark skin but really don't, believe me I know alot of em. And I don't care about Telemundo I have never watched it only once or twice when I was small. Telemundo is basically Mexican entertainment, I don't identify with them at all. I do watch Super Canal which is a Dominican Channel, and on it it has basically dark skinned Dominican girls, so no right now I don't have anything to preach on. Now if they were to only have light skinned Dominican girls then I'd be preaching.
@FendiFiend: you stated that beautifully ma. i agree witchu 100%. latina women are brought up that way, thas y black men flee to them, because even if the brotha dont got ***, they still treat him like royalty, whereas a sister would constantly point out his ***. who would u rather be wit?
@realwoman: wow, did u even read what I wrote? the more you speak, the more your ignorance shows, and the more you prove me right about why brothas flee from sistas like you. I hold no "grudge towards black women" as you say, i hold no grudge towards ANYBODY, gender/race/creed/religion, whereas you do. I never once said black people didn't like me lol, I said I've personally experienced more racism from black people than white people in my lifetime. does that make me bitter towards black people? nope, not one bit. and you know why? Because half my family is black, because most girls i date are black, because most of my friends are black. But the main reason is...you ready for this? Because I'm educated. Try it out sometime, your view on race and the world will change once you are.
Oh and the reason why "mixed people" or mutts as you so ignorantly called us, can speak more on racism than a person of one race, is because mixed people experience it from both ends, double as much as a person of one ethnicity. And lightskinned brothas did not go out of style, i'd have u crawlin up da walls. i already got ya pu*sy wet from me mind-fuc*ing you lol
@kimpeach: im not a hypocrit ma, sisters up here constantly complain bout brothers dating chicks of other races, i simply said y they choose to do so
@Lexia: im sorry if I offended u (or any other female up here) by calling "realwoman" a ***. I use that term loosely, a *** to me is a person, male or female, who nags or complains, female or male. thats the impression she gives, so thats what i called her. and no black women aint the only ones who act up, like i said earlier, the women in my family are black, filipinio, dominican, and white. THEY ALL CRAZY lol, they all act up
This is my very last comment I will ever post on race. I am sick and tired of blacks being racist against their own. I wish all of you would fade off the earth, who needs you. If god wanted everyone to look the same, he would have made us all the same color. Grow up, and find someone to love you, if that man judges you by your complexion then they need help, but why do my black women feed into that. You get made fun of if you extremely light, or extremely dark. Who cares, it is just skin, I really pray for you all. I love the skin I am in, and would NEVER tease or judge another person, when I was growing up, I liked who I liked not because of complexion, but because of that person.
Lexia: I love your avatar! I wish I could find that picture and hang it in my living room. That moment had such a profound impact on the Olympics and the civil rights movement. High Five!
This is getting outta hand folks! I can't believe some of the comments, they really show people true colors, literally!!
LMAO @Jean Gray...You're right but you should tell Fabolous that...People get it from him saying it all the time...Half Dominican...lol I see him as a Black man but had to let people know you can't knock a man from getting with a chick who has same or similar background as he...But you are CORRECT...
nylaisalwaysnice, I agree...and I DO tell that all the time on here...Black is Black...enough with the light-skin dark skin madness...But at the same time, we can not pretend there aren't "Yung Bergs" "Wesley Snipes", "OJ Simpsons" out there...so it's hard to try and tell people to not feel the way they do...Because it is a slap in the face, especially to the women who birth them...I mean Yung Berg admitted to having a dark-skinned Mother...If that is not self-hate, I don't know what is...So people tend to get sensitive about issues like this...
I guess what I'm saying is how would you feel if you had a son that discriminated against women who look like you? I'm all for getting pass the race, skin color, issues etc...but we do have a long way to go...And people like Yung Berg do nothing but fan the flames...
@Romaine apology accepted...

This was posted by CharlieFromThaChi on similar topic: interracial dating never has and never will become more prevalent than marrying your own.
There are Approximately 38,323,000 black people in the the US
there are 54 million married couples in America and of those the "black man-white woman" relationships is only "approaching" half a million. I do not see an epidemic here.
and the "black woman- white man" relationships approaching 200,000 out of roughly 19,000,000 black women . . .I do not see a "growing trend"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Reevaluate your position jr. bc you're wrong.
@ Lexia: How would I feel if I had a son that discriminated against women who look like me?
I don't really feel like saying you prefer white women and you are black is discrimination, although it does depend on WHY you like a certain race and your views on your own race.
For example, my best friend, she is African American, she is very dark skinned, she refuses to date anyone her color, and says that she will not marry a guy darker than her or her color because she doesn't want "no pitch black ugly babies". Now by her saying that it shows me that she has issues with her own skin color, but if she were to just say I am just attracted to white guys or I'm interested in other cultures or people who are the opposite of me, I wouldn't see it as discrimination.
WELL IM FROM DOWN SOUTH. MOST BLACKS DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT AFRO-HISPANICS. I WENT TO SCHOOL IN THE MIDWEST AND THEIR WERE DOMINICANS, PUERTO RICANS AND OTHER AFRO-HISPANIC MULTIRACIAL PEOPLE. MOST DOMINICANS I SAW THEIR LOOK JUST LIKE AFRICAN-AMERICANS OR CLOSE TO IT. I NOTICED THAT A LOT OF DOMINICANS DONT LIKE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY ARE BLACK OR PART BLACK WHICH IS THIER BUSINESS. BUT ALL OF THEM ARE NOT LIKE THAT. THEY EVEN CAME TO ME SPEAKING SPANISH BECAUSE U DONT KNOW BY LOOKS. THE PUERTO RICANS WERE MORE WILLING TO SAY THAT THEY ARE PART BLACK EVEN THOUGHT THEY WERE LIGHTER. AND U KNOW WHAT. AFRICAN-AMERICANS, DOMINCANS, AND PUERTO RICANS ARE MIXED ANYWAY. I HAVE PLENTY OF PEOPLE IN MY FAMILY THAT LOOK LIKE FABOULOS GIRL FRIEND. SHE LOOK LIKE WHAT WE CALL A "RED-BONE" TO ME DOWN SOUTH. I RESPECT A HISPANIC FOR A HISPANIC, BUT IF THEY ARE BLACK OR PART BLACK AND WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT HERITAGE, THEN THEY SHOULD. WE NEED TO STICK TOGETHER PEOPLE OF COLOR. MOST OF THE TIME IT'S JUST THE LANGUAGE AND CULTURE THAT SEPARATES US.
@FendiFiend: *** right i want a working woman, that *** gotta pay for half the mortgage lol (im jus playin when i use the "b" word ma)
@lexia: ;)
@THE_WAY (or should i say hulk-hips): i couldn't give a fu*k less about the 54 million married couples in America, more than half of em end in divorce anyway. As far as "the trend" i wouldn't care if the entire world was same-race marriages, and i was the only one that wasn't. if me and wifey loved each other, wouldnt matter if the whole world told us we were wrong. (im jokin when i call u hulk hips, u sexy ma, u already know that)
Boy, ya'll chicks must have dealt with some pretty sh!tty men in your days.
Thats why me and my sister love our father so much.
We dont have any of the issues I see many black people speak about. No complextion issues, no family issues. I dont hate women. She doesnt hate men. None of us have been to jail.
I've never had a problem with any of my sisters boyfriends, cause' she knows a good man when she see's one. Even if it didnt work out.
Ya'll have some ISSUES if you this woman get you worked up. She probably looks like some of your family members. But, MTO throws the word Latin in there and here we go.
some of you are soo god *** ignorant. to the person who said everyone who is not white is black, you are so stupid and people like you are the reason there is racism and judgments in the first place. there are not only two races. and to the person who said "interracial dating never has and never will become more prevalent than marrying your own." your statistics are inaccurate in determining interracial marriages because black and white are not the only two races. how about a white and a hispanic, or a black and hispanic? or how about an asian person marrying a white or black or hispanic person.. THOSE ARE ALL INTERRACIAL MARRIAGES. there are definitely a lot more interracial couples than ever, and "multi-racial" has finally become an option for those of us who never knew which race they should select. open up your eyes people. and how dare some of you say "why is he with a latina girl and not a black girl?" SO ignorant.
Wow. I think Freddy is clapping his clammy little hands off. He used race as bait, and so many bit. I am a full black woman. I am not mixed with anything other than black. I am light skinned, I relax my hair and I do need to tan often. That is neither here or there. I just wanted to share this tidbit. I get called a goya bean, mexican, and the like. I could care less what others think. I know who and what I am. Please, trust me when I tell you a racist white man willcall a Dominican /Puerto rican or whatever other nationality or ethnicity is out there. If you have dark skin you black. End of that. Alot of bitterness on here. Focus on the black man that got tasered near Jena LA, this is getting no major coverage. Fred you should be ashamed of your *** self. I guess it brings in the hits though. Whatever. Good *** to all. Much peace and love to all my brothers and sisters.
WHATS THE BIG DEAL FAB IS LATIN AS WELL. AND THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH A BROTHER DATING A LATIN GIRL OR VICE VERSA IF THEY LIKE EACH OTHER. BOTH RACES CATCH SLACK FROM THERE PEOPLE BUT LATINS MORE SO WITH THE WAY LATINS HAVE GROW RACSIST TOWARDS BLACKS.
AND FOR THE BLACKS ON THIS SITE YOU MAY THINK YOU ARE THE SAME AS DOMINICANS BUT THEY HATE BLACKS. THEY ONLY USE US TO BLEND INTO ARE HOODS THEN THEY FLOOD IT WITH DRUGS GIVING TO STUPID BLACKS THINKING THE DOMINICAN IS BLACK LIKE THEM. THEN AFTER THE HOOD IS RUIN THEY FLOOD THE HOOD WITH THERE PEOPLES FROM THE ISLANDS WHO COME TO THE SAME HOOD YOU THOUGHT YOU SHARED WITH THEM BUT THEY HATE YOU NOW AND THE HOOD IS MOSTLY LATIN. THAT WHAT THEY DID IN CAMDEN NEW JERSEY ANYWAY.

@Romaine
You "men" that are hopping on MTO to tell Black women about their ***,appear to be quite weak and nefarious. What is your agenda or are you just lonely ?
Please jr., I want you to discuss the large number of white males,Asians and the "other" types of men that overtly and covertly FIEND for Black women.As a BLACK MAN who is AWAKE,I've seen the lust you things have for Black women in various forms,on far too many occasions to be a coincidence.The problem you things have is that Black women will tell you to your face your breath stinks. White,Asian, and "other" types of men DON'T tolerate that kind of talk from their female counterparts. Latinas when abused, will sheepishly smile in their man's face then cheat with a girl or guy behind his back.They may also consult some Santeria priestess for prayers to make their husbands/boyfriends impudent...TELL ME I'M LYING LATINAS. White and Asian women are the weakest form of female on the planet.Discussing them is basically a waste of time. The bottom line is, some of you guy's bizarre attacks and odd fixations on Black women are very suspect;just like the devils that run this site.
@Fendi, girl who you tellin'...lol
@nylaisalwaysnice, Oh I don't mean just preference...Nothing wrong with having preferences, but I mean to think low of your own or degrade them...*** I prefer dark-skinned Black men but that don't mean I don't like men who look like My dad or lighter-skinned Black men...And furthermore, I wouldn't discriminate against them because they could be perfect for me...
@MANSEMINOLE, EXACTLY...That's why some of the light-skin vs dark-skin mess sets me off...IN the South, we're so mixed up it ain't even funny...And you're right about alot of Puerto Ricans, they don't run from who they are...I must say I've had the most pleasant experiences with Puerto Ricans moreso than any other Hispanic group...
I had this Dominican coworker who was about the same color as me saying she had to teach her son(who was alot darker) Spanish because people "think" he's Black at school...She was talking like it offended her...I was like uh okay...lol And then my hairstylist...She's AA and didn't have a perm so her hair was very curly...Dominicans used to speak to her like she was Dominican...She was like "Naw I ain't Dominican...I'm Black"... Ol girl got mad...Don't try and take her AAness away from her...lol
Lexia you are right...FAB talks that "half dominican" ***..there is nothing wrong with being proud of your "heritage" but the man cant speak an OUNCE of spanish and he grew up RAISED in brooklyn amongst african americans in BREVOORT projects. Yes Hispanic is not a race. Domincans are not EUROPEAN they are one of the MORE AFRICAN latin groups probably next to cuba.
Fab plays himself..with that nonsense...You dont see other black people going around saying "I'm half Hatian" Oh yes...think about why the hatians who are on the SAME ISLAND dont call them selves latin? OR GO AROUND SAYING "IM HALF HAITIAN"its just about culture and ehtnicity. FAB youre not HALF anything Youre a BLACK MAN with SOME latin heritage...you FOOL. FOLKS are quick to try and claim half something else other than of African Descent! It just kills me that a person of DUAL african descent would make an issue of it because the other BLACK people in his family speak spanish!!! what an idiot!!
TU SABE? =)
ummm fab a *** from the stuy who cares if someone in his fam is form the DR.
LATIONO/HISPANIC IS NOT A RACE ITS A CULTURE
gothgirl YOU MAKE SOME GOOD POINTS BUT JUST CAUSE YOUR GETTING *** BY A BLACK GUY DONT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO SPEAK ON BLACK PEOPLE SO SIT YA POLLY POCKET *** DOWN!!! THE ONLY BLACK YOU GOT INSIDE YOU IS YA MANS DIC
I've only had dealings with Puerto Ricans myself. Now that I'm in the south these midget *** racist Mexicans kill me. They hate on us and white folks are the ones trying to send them back, and pay them slave wages.
These other races claim to hate us in order to please the white man, but we see how heavily influenced they are by our swag. They hate and admire our style at the same time, if that's not insane what is?
Crackerdevil
You ask how who do we hate the most you or ourselves? The last time I checked whites suicide ates demolished ours! I guess that answers your question.
You say we call our lips soup coolers, whites hate the paleness in their skin. Y'all look like some GOT DAYUM FOOLS out in 100+ degree wheather trying to burn that skin you hate so much! LOL!!!
damm fab, ur a fool dawgs. why u select one of dem chics dat turns into a barrell after child #1. with all dem hot dark dominican chics on this planet dat can hav five kids *** still look banging caz of their genes, u choose a pale horse to ride out wit. sorry dawgs, caz *** is done. u betta hook her up wit an ital diet *** send her to da gym. only if u can c my wifey one child *** still supa sexy. no strech marks r fat. yea i loves her. she dark *** beautifull.

@THE_WAY: youre a dude? thought you were a chick, otherwise wouldn't wasted my time responding to u. wow you're fu*king psycho lol, one of those crazy brothas talkin bout how the world's out to get him, the white men have all the power, always tryna keep the brothas down. You puttin black pus*y on a high pedestal bro, and i bet u aint even got a woman lol, if u do she gotta be dumb as sh!t to not see through your ***!t. You said some of the racists sh!t ive read so far on this post. If MTO is ran by "white devils" then why the fu*k does your dumb a$$ keep coming up here? You're a ***!*** idiot who doesn't know wtf he's talkin about, thats why. Now *** the fu*k up and go do somethin wit ya life. And if u really are such a wise activist, tryna support and help the black community and people's perception of us, then educate yourself, vote for Obama come fall, and get as many people to do the same. And *** the fu*k up until you do educate yourself, otherwise ignorance will continue to spread and plague the black community, the US, the world. And my name's Romaine, not Jr partna. Address me correctly
Fendi, girl I did a research paper on Illegal Immigrants and that is when I discovered all of thsoe hospitals out in Cali closed...*** shame...I can understand the frustration sis...I know that has to be terrible...
Blacks in America is on CNN now...Very interesting...lol Brought up the point that RealWoman was addressing...This one Black family discovered their great great grandfather was White and fathered six children with this Black mistress and had 7 by his White wife...So one of the Black relatives got to digging and traced some of the White cousins and the eventually all met...Girl it's 300 of them mofos...lol And I thought I had a large family...Hell mine might be more...*** I lost count to tell you the truth...lol
I wonder how many Latinos are on MTO, y'all kill me. I don't know where some of yous are from but Latinos and Blacks romantically involved is a non subject in the Northeast. And by the way I know Latinos generally have African roots but many Black Americans don't acknowledge some Latinos as Black. Most of these people do not know people from PR, DR, Cuba etc. C'mon people grow up, I'm Rican and I love me some Black and Latina women, women of color are just sexy.
Fendi
LOL @ Mexico the sequal. Yeah, I've always heard Cali is notorious for Mexicans. I grew up in Cleveland, OH with Puerto Ricans and ish was all good.
Now I live in GA, and I have to keep myself from hurting one of these dwarfs. They haven't gotten violent yet this far east, but I'm watching their lil' ***. For now they're just trying to mean mug, or mildly disrespect your woman, or female relative etc.
I know in Cali they're bustin' caps and ish. ***, you say 40 hospitals have closed, that's some record smashing ish. I hate those lil' musty mofo's. They're proud as hell they snuck over here and work in the hot *** sun on somebody's "plantation" They act all Big Willie now, like they're executives on the New York Stock Exchange or something.
I've even heard a few say ish like blacks need to go back to Africa. Can you bleive that? LOL! I'm like *** take your lil broke *** back to Mexico and continue to eat that *** dirt for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They couldn't even make their own economy work over there, and come over here and act like they're going to show us how it's done. Sad lil mofo's!
Murkaholic5150
Also 2 u numbskulls puerto ricans and dominicans orginate in an africa, look dat [EXPLETIVE] up. ----------------------------------------------- LMAO umm No they didint.
Dominicans & Puerto Ricans are actually NATIVE TAINO & ARAWAK INDIANS who intermixed with the AFRICANS and EUROPEANS who came over to the new world. SMDH
fyi, in my lifetime Blacks have called me white before they find out that I am Puerto Rican and Honduran, and at times I HAVE HAD BLACKS TELL ME I AM NOT BLACK because I look more "White" than anything. I am LATINA *** straight! I have a lil bit of everything although I look like a White girl, But I DON NOT CALL OR CONSIDER MYSELF WHITE, and obvioulsy I cant totally claim BLACK. I am MULTI_RACIAL (AMERINDIAN, BLACK and WHITE) who SPEAKS SPANISH soo yes, I call myself a LATINA!
@ Fendi:
Thank you for realizing that my statement about the manner in which a lot of Latinas are raised, based on their culture, was GENERAL, not specific. I think it's ridiculous that anyone wouldn't want their daughter to be educated, work or whatever, because we as women possess so much power. Why wouldn't we want to live up to our full potential and why wouldn't our loved ones want more for us? That's indentured servitude 2008.
As a man, if you TRULY love a woman, you should want the best for your woman and you should want your woman to achieve as much as she can in her lifetime. Anytime WE as women prosper, everyone in our lives prospers, our men included. Same goes for a man's success (well, it should). I believe the adage "behind every good man is a good woman."
Brothas really should start respecting the fact that women are driven, determined and independent, but we WANT you and we NEED you in our lives if we are to have and raise the strong Black families we want to have.
With that said, brothas need to unhand their vices, such as alcohol, drugs, other women, etc. and decide what's important to them. I'm not saying don't drink or don't smoke, but don't be an alcoholic, a weed head, a crack head or whatever. Don't run around with so many women that you have women knocking on your doorstep bringing babies to you that they claim are yours. Basically, live a responsible life and don't leave a trail of destruction. Men and natural disasters are not and should not be synonymous with each other. ----------------------------------------------
You have just typed an entire dissertation on what black men should do. Granted I will concur with some of your conjectures.
But, you have failed to mention the social responsibilities of black women in all of this...or are black women completely absolved from blame?
Just pick a side and stick with it...Too much flip-flopping ------------------------------------------ HOW CAN YOU "PICK" a side when you are comprised of many different sides? Its called being true to everything that makes you "you", and saying I am Latina and obviously looking at me and then knowing what I am comprised of tells you taht Im not just one and not just the other. Im a mixed of many things
@ lexia

------------------------------------------------
White "massa" *** black women and producing many illegitimate *** is nothing new. It trips me out that black women can harbor so much resentment when a black man dates a non-black woman, yet many of these so called "sistas" were single handledly responsible for fostering an entire *** group of mulattoes.
Oh and the reason why "mixed people" or mutts as you so ignorantly called us, can speak more on racism than a person of one race, is because mixed people experience it from both ends, double as much as a person of one ethnicity -------------------------------------------
I can co-sign. Once WHITES hear a lil twang of my Latin accent, they make their judgements, comments and faces.
da_advocator, That's nothing new, I agree...However, don't try and make it seem like this country back then was as free as it is now...Alot of those women were forced, coerced and worked as housekeepers and mammies...It's not the same as how things are today...If it was, then more Black women would be with/prefer White men instead of prefering Black men...
Brooklyn Latina
I don't know if you go to Florida at times or not, but Hispanics run that mofo. I'll be in Orlando in a couple of weeks, and it always floors me how well hispanics are doing there. THEY'RE FLAT OUT RICH!!
I know when I was living up north, when I heard anything about Florida it was just about how much of a vacation spot it was. Now that I'm in the south and travel to Florida frequently, I see it's a spanish person's paradise. Orlando is a nice size city. About 2 million people I beleive.
You seem like a cool female, just tought I'd pull your coat tail if you didn't already know!
@BrooklynLatina: thank you, 3+ races like myself, so i dont need to explain anything to you, you live it. btw you sexy as fu*k ma, one of the sexiest up here mos def. i get the judgements from everyone. when i got my corn rows, the black girls swoon to me, bosses at work look at me differently. So grow it out curly, everyone think im latino , everyone start callin me papi. cut it bald, black girls think im white lol...eres la chica mas bella que hay aqui. la mentalidad y belleza no se ve mucho. el hombre este al lado tuyo tiene suerte
@da_advocator: how you can use the phrase "illegitimate ***" is beyond me. you speak as if you have intelligence...use it.
@BKLatina, I meant don't try and connect with the Black/African side only when it is convenient for you...And when I say "you" I'm not referring to you personally...You have African DNA as you've stated but no one would mistake you for being "Black"...
For some to sit here about the same color as me or even darker to get "offended" at someone calling them Black but yet can not get enough of the Black culture...That's offensive to me...If I looked like I was White and was on a predominantly White site, or did most things that I know Whites love to do and are known for, how could I get mad at being called White?
When it comes to the Blacks or shall I say African Americans in the US, race is a very sensitive subject and will be for probably a long time...The slave history, the discrimination, being stripped of alot of things including families, alot of our African heritage we could never live to forget...And the fact that we're still having to fighting for equality til this day in this country that we built...
I mean just recently, there have been lawsuits won by Blacks because their White employers were paying less than what they pay the White employees or just wouldn't hire Blacks at all...
This right Here…Is dedicated to the Cincity, And ALL MY Boricuas!!!REPRESENTING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Gothgirl or whoever else that caught a society disease.
I just got one thing to tell ALL of you! Do you see that picture of my AVATAR right there? Well, She White. Right or Wrong? And so that is My COMPLEXION! So if I am What you call “WHITE”, Well I don’t give a F*uck! You see, I am Puerto Rican because that is the current name of the Island that my parents were born. My great grandparents were natives of that Island, and so you see
.we were neighbors of the natives that lived perhaps exactly were you live right now, YES U.S.A.
Now if someone in my family (past or present) brings someone into the family of another color, race, nationality, culture or whatever you call it; you see…whatever offspring they have is still and will always be Boricua.
*FYI. BORICUA= is some one who is indigenous name of Puerto Rico.
So it doesn’t matter if we in NY, FL, CT and all around this WORLD, WE LOVE THAT LITTLE ISLAND WE CALL HOME.
WHITE GIRL, Can you say the same? Yeah, I know what you thinking.
But see, REAL Recognizes REAL!!!
Big ups to all my Caribbeans, Africans, Chinese, Mexicans, ALL the "Cultural" People around the world, and the Real People That KNOW What it REALLY means to be AMERICAN!!!!!!
PEACE and LOVE ; )
illegitimate *** is a redundancy...i agree.
but, I know the context I use it.
you see marriages between white men and black women were tolerable during slavery...because they were few and non-threating to the white supremacy regime. But, after slavery, this behavior was no longer deemed acceptable. In fact, in some places (kentucky) a white man would be declared insane if he married his slave. It became no longer socially acceptable for a white man to have black mistress. In large cites, "white massa" lust for black female *** objects led to the formation of numerous house of prostititions that supplied black women to growing demands of white men.
There is a complex social dynamic involved in all of this. While White males wth black women were often viewed as taboo, it was not as severe when black men married white woman. why?
Because in a white dominted patriarchal society, white women were the properties of white man. If a white woman marries a black man, she would adopt the black man status, and their kids would adopt his last names. Since black men didn't own much wealth, the offsprings from such unions would not threaten the societis status quo.
Now, if white men were to marry black women, she would adopt his status and her mulatto kids would adopt his last name and wealth. This would change the balance of power from the white supremacist.
So, for many long time, the marriage between a white male and black females were not recognized and deemed unlawful...thus the reason I use illegitimate ***.

lol Who u tellin? Ive been to Miami every chance I get and went to Orlando last year. LOVE IT! If I had fam down there I would get more ***, but being a divorcee and a single mom, Im scared to make a big move without having some strong stability
Romaine Muchas gracias mi cielo! We're "there" (pointing at my forehead then at yours) lol

I get exactly what you are saying. I hate when obvioulsy Black Latinos try to deny their African heritage. My dad is Honnduran and of Mayan and African descent. When he was younger he had that "deny my blackness" mentality because alot of his countrymen back there had that brainwashing attitude, but that was before he came to America as a teen and then educated himself. He knows now and does not deny it.
My mom is PR but she is actually the "whiter" type, but she too knows as well exactly what she's made of. *** alot of Puerto Ricans are so ignorant they dont even recognize that they are Taino Indian descendants and think they are just Spainiard and African descended. I wish more people would learn their history and realize where they came from!
@ da_advocator
Many black men served as the eyes and ears against the black race. There are stories that the white slaveowner had many of their black male slaves to beat a runaway slave for them. Where is your outrage over that?
What about Harriet Tubman's first husband (a free black man) who tried to dissuade her from escaping? What about the black men who did NOTHING while the white man raped their women?
You love to talk about what the black women do or don't do, but lets be honest because there were "sellouts" (black males and black females).
Slaves were programed to hate themselves and many blacks are still struggling to overcome that legacy today. However, its wrong and unfair to point the blame only at black women and talk about what they did to the black man. Black women and black men were BOTH victims during slavery!
If anyone on MTO is having a hard time figuring out their race, go to a high end store. You will find out real quick if your black.white or latin...
I really don't care who "other" black men date. All I care about is the black men living under this roof here. If you keep finding yourself in these sort of topics, you will turn bitter. If not already. So what if Fab goes with who ever. This nygger is no catch at all. Yeah he has money. But he is straight up hood. Finding himself locked up every other weekend. And he has a record just like the next knucklehead nygger. There is more out there than this. So Fab date all the PR mamas you want. Because you are one fycked up nygger that don't need to rep.. NEXT>> And he has to keep saying he is mixed with what ever because he know he would be flipped on at any moment. Watch, he is gonna see the real deal. I see it all the time. They love your hood videos and style, but ya still a blacky. I can't wait to read about the whole family jumping Fab. lmao. "that's no yo babi"
You are right...a lot of black men were also used to betray one another. But, let's be clear, white men although some had a lust for black men, many had black mistresses. Listen, they created a house of prostitution just to meet the growin demand for black meat by white men. This played a big role in the pscycho social developmet of many black women and feminism.
It is interesting that black women love to blame black men for their ills...if you understood your roots, you would understand that all of your negative social development was born out of slavery and the white man's patriarchal system.
i never understood how a black woman can destroy a black man's character because he is dating or marrying some non-black chick. Some of you black women on here deserve to be miserable. I hope many of you die a lonely existence...because you are diseased mentally...and anyone you come in contact with, you will infect.
Phat_Gemini
Lol, that was cute!
Yeah anyone can attend Boriqua college. It started out more as a community college aimed at helping out Puerto Ricans and any minority who couldnt really afford college, or didnt have enough credits to attend college or had to work so they catered to *** courses and lower income students. But the one in BK like 15 blocks from me alwasy had a very diverse Black/Latino student campus and Im old-lol I remember as far back as 84-85 all the Marcy/Sumner/Bushwick and Willy B heads would go there if needed.
da_advocator, whoa there buddy...I ain't blaming Black men for squat...My life is fine...In fact, I need to thank one Black man in particular...My father...for passing down this high metabolism to me...So I can eat what I want when I want...lol
I'm not bitter by far...I have no kids and Me and mine can break up tomorrow and I know I can move on...Done did it before...

-------------------------------------------------
For me, He only has a mark on his chest if he degrades Black women in the process...And you *** right I will say something then...Just as I would if someone disrespected BLACKS as a whole...otherwise, ***-em...
@ lexia...throw a rock at a dog it will bark..
If it doesn't pertain to you, just keep quiet.
I am sick and tired of miserable *** who come online, spewing their *** because their *** life is pathetic.
Some of you posters amaze me at the passion and disdain you harbor for an individual you hardly know. I never stood how some of you can claim to like black man or be pro-black, while you constantly assualts a man's character because he choose to *** some non-black broad.
*** outta here. Many of you people are frauds, imposters, poser...you are *** hypocrites. And I will expose many of your *** ways of thinking.
And this is a general statement...it applies to all who fits this general description.
If it doesn't apply to you...then *** outta here.

You know you need to let that go. You know how we get blame for EVERYTHING! We are either bitter, stupid, or the white man's "ears and eyes". According to some, BW even loved how WM raped our grandmothers and they had the nerve to produce 'illegitimate ***' like Booker T. Washington,Francis Grimké,and Frederick Douglass.
No matter how most black women praise black men or defend black men, somebody on here will always find a way to put black women down. It used to upset me when BM talked down to BW, but the insults no longer affects me...I just laugh.
3.) Black women are
For you ignorant *** that are saying HE IS HALF SPANISH. People who are SPANISH are people from SPAIN.
The *** is DOMINICAN (DOMINICAN ISN'T A RACE, NOR IS IT AN ETHNICITY) IT'S A NATIONALITY..Meaning there are different sub-ethnicities and races under it.
Most DOMINICANS ARE BLACK OF AFRICAN DESCENT..A LOT ARE MULATTO'S(BLACK AND WHITE MIXED) AND A LOT ARE WHITE AND AMERINDIAN MIX AND SOME ARE JUST SIMPLY WHITE..
HISPANIC AND LATINO IS JUST A LABEL THE USA HAVE GIVEN PEOPLE WHO SPEAK SPANISH..IF YOU GO TO PUERTO RICO, CUBA, DOMINICA REPUBLICK YOU WON'T HEAR THAT ***..MAN PEOPLE ARE SO IGNORANT..
[link to external website removed] THAT WILL HELP YOU UNDERSTAND.
Umm Da_advocator, actually the saying is "A hit dog will holler"...And since I'm on here going back and forth and you didn't specify who you were referring to, I spoke up...
And yes many people are hypocrites from time time, it happens...including you...You hardly know any of us but yet you're ready to burst a blood vessel...
@ lexia...
I don't have to know you personally...I just read many of the *** you post. I go by that…and Only by that...and my attacks are only based on the *** many of you type on here. Trust me, it is nothing personal.
@ kimpeach...
*** outta here with that psycho-babble. Go read what Fendi typed...Go read what phat-gemini typed...and tell me, who is blaming who.
I don't think many of you black women believe you are culpable in all of this ***. That's the frustrating part.
@ kimpeach No matter how most black women praise black men or defend black men, somebody on here will always find a way to put black women down. It used to upset me when BM talked down to BW, but the insults no longer affects me...I just laugh. ------------------------------------------------ @ kimpeach....find 20 posters on this thread, that defended this black man....
again, you are so full of ***.
But it still goes back to you being a hypocrite...You can't tell others how they are getting worked up over people they don't know when you're doing the same...
And I really don't care about you referencing the "***" I post because you will NEVER find a post where I straight up dogged Black men as a whole...You know why? Because I never have...No reason to...IN fact, I've defended Black men on here...
You should get out of your own way...And Phat_gemini was going by Fab's arrest record...if you googled, you would find out there is some truth in some of what she said...I don't personally care for her use of the "***" word though...
@da_advocator: LOL...stop it man, i cant take much more. aww man you had me rollinu, u jus straight up went off, dont crush em too hard lol...i agree witcha bro. Don't take it personal ladies, its jus all entertainment.
People are venting their personal opinions, but at the end of the day, it's just a GOSSIP site. The only positive change this site can bring is when you have bloggers that actually speak intelligence or truth, harsh as it can be sometimes. Then maybe, just maybe, someone else's opinion can bring some insight that one might not have originally had, and make change for the better.
think most people on here were like so the hell what Fab is with a Latin chick...He has Latin background anyway... ---------------------------------------- Yeah most of the people that knew of his Latin heritage. If not i think more would have had more negative comments.
I mean his mom is Dominican, probably had Dominican fam that looked like his baby's mom, and they have a common cultural background. Just cuz he is a Black Dominican and she happens to be more of a Mestizo Latina, I dont get how that would make him a sell out like some people called him. Was he only supposed to date darker AA or Black Latinos? Its like Darker AA's Dating "redbone" or lightskinned AA's. Same difference. But you know someone is always gonna have something to say.
@kimpeach
Do you really believe only 2 posters had something negative to say about this man or his choice of mate?
If you believe this, then it is clear that you are illiterate.
If you claim that black women praise and constantly defends the black man…then you should have no problem finding 20 posters out of 350 who praises this man.
Listen...i am out...again keep thinking the black man is the reason for your pathetic existence.
@Fendi quoted Notice how, before so many illegal immigrants inhabited this country, our healthcare system was more stable. In So. Cal alone, we lost about 40 hospitals. They went bankrupt because folks *coughs -- illegal immigrants* were coming to this country, having baby after baby, seeking medical attention for injuries, etc. and they had no insurance and no income verification. You can't legally turn these fools down, so as a result, many of our hospitals ended up with a high debt to income ratio, and the hospitals were subsequently *** DOWN. ------------------------------------------------- OMG, just today someone was talking to me about this.
