Re: The Jewish Woman Shortage

Just as an anecdotal sidenote, most of my black male friends seem to have no qualms about dating white women for short or long term relationships. In contrast, my white male friends seem to be adverse to dating black women and generally don't find them attractive.

Some anthopologists say that the male preference for lighter-skinned women is almost universal worldwide. And this doesn't necessarily mean interracial relationships; even within racial groups, of all different skin colors, men seem to have this preference. In some cases the differences can be very slight, but they are important when it comes to male choice.
One theory is that light skin on a woman is a sign that she doesn't do much outside agricultural labor and therefore is "refined." Another possibility is that the lighter skin shows that a woman has sufficient subcutaneous fat to make her fertile.
Interestingly, Steve Sailer has pointed out that in movies there's almost a universal preference for the lead actress to have lighter skin than the lead actor, especially when a romantic relationship is involved. He says that one reason why Nicole Kidman has had such a successful acting career is that her very pale skin makes her appear lighter than almost any actor without the need for extensive makeup.
