Thank you guys for such intelligent comments so far. BTTT

Sure a woman can be all these things if she chooses to be. There are Dom/Sub relationships between very intelligent people. This is not what I mean by subserient. I am talking forced, learned cultural subservience.- How many of you guys prefer an intelligent, confident, independent and loving woman of any culture to a subservient woman of any culture?
You assume a woman can't be all of those things.
Too long and too many questions!

Take 'em one at a time and use your copy and paste feature. Then type your answer in under each question.
Buy hey, this can be an overwhelming subject to contemplate.
Stilla, awwww why don't you date? You must love your wife even though you aren't happy with her being a JW. Otherwise you might be tempted to date and give her her scriptural freedom. And see, anglo chicks aren't always a bad time.

Cut and Paste, dating, love, JW, wife, its all confusing to me!
I think I'm gonna watch a Cypress Hill video!
No, I'm married to a black woman.
Fairly happy.
It's working now. We get along and things aren't too rough.
It's her as an individual. Although she has some views and traits that are stereotypical of black women she is a very unique individual.
Two questions above not applicable.
I will have to admit that I can't say I have a strong preference for the independent type over the subservient type. Perhaps it is part of my JW upbringing and perhaps it is simply my own personality, faulted or not. I would like to believe that my wife is able to take care of herself if necessary and her attitude is surely a confident independent one. But I wouldn't mind being pampered more sometimes. I don't think the qualities in the question are mutually exclusive.
I'm black but I don't prefer white women or women of any race over another. I just happened to end up with a black woman. I did not spend any time in the normal dating world, but it is interesting some of the things I've heard. When I was in school, University that is, I attended a some black student functions/conventions. At one convention, there was a session/discussion about dating-type relationships between black men and women. Of course, the topic of black men dating white women came up. As some of you may know, some black women are angered by this and accuse black men of abandoning their black women and white women of taking away their limited amount of black men, which in my humble opinion is a silly assertion. So the women asked some black men to comment on why some black men would choose white women. One reason that came up was that white women were more docile and feminine to their partners than black women. If I remember correctly, the feeling was that white women in general were more willing to do things for their partner. Some of the black women countered that the world they faced had forced them to put on a harder face. Of course, these were just generalizations. But maybe that's another twist to throw in the mix.
well I am not sure if I should come in here and comment or not...
obviously the questions do not apply to me (being a female)..
I was just going to say that I have dated several black men (most non JWs but three were JWs) and I typically hear from all of them, that they prefer white women. It seems if they date interracially, they do so for as a preferrence. Typically they tell me that they find women of their own race more strong willed, they won't put up with the 'sh#t' that they think white women will. I think some of those ideals are a stereo type.. The man I am dating now is black, however he is the only black man I have dated who loves women of all colors and has no preference.
Sassy's comments about why some black men prefer white women is exactly the type of comments I heard at that session I attended.
