@MHKruyt@WritersofColour Only consolation is that more women of colour are sharing their experiences. Helpful to make race fetishes visible -
@OtherSociology@WritersofColour Very true. Men r creeps. Question, how wud this b from a homosexual pov? any thoughts? -
@MHKruyt@WritersofColour Vek Lewis finds some gay Latin men play up race fetish. Other research finds negative race hierarchies in LGBTQI

@OtherSociology Reading stuff like this makes me want to take myself of the dating market#Yuck -
@MHKruyt Yes, yuck! It's hard to as often times you don't know until you're already dating someone. Trust is hard after repeated events. -
@OtherSociology Sometimes, it only reveals itself after so many years. Bummer. Othertimes, women choose to 'live' with it? {o.O} -
@MHKruyt I guess some women live with it. Shouldn't have to. It feels gross to only be desired for a fantasy about the colour of our skin. -
@OtherSociology not only that, but what happens when fantasy becomes reality? I've seen it happen and smh
