What's in Dalit men?

Till the 1967 judgment of the US Supreme Court, interracial marriages
were criminal offence in as many as 17 States of America. Just like
Manu Dharma, the US society too believed in Caucasian race purity and
supremacy.

Today, there are about half a million mixed couples in which over 80
per cent husbands are Black. According to Stanford University
sociologist Michael Rosenfeld, factoring all racial combinations, more
than 7 per cent of America's 59 million married couples in 2005 were
interracial.

Slavers, Caucasians have been bad, and so the White America.
Caucasians have proved to be greats, and so has America. Columbus
discovers America in 1492. A century and 15 years later, the first
permanent English settlement occurred in James Town in Virginia in
1607 — just seven years after East India Company was established. The
first Black overloaded ship reached James Town in 1619. In other
words, Blacks' story of inhuman torment is less than four centuries
older. To Caucasian slavers, Blacks were not complete humans.

In 1664, the American State of Maryland enacted a law against
Black-White marriages. That meant, in less than half a century since
Blacks were taken to America in 1619, mixed marriages had begun, and
hence a law against it. Slavery was abolished by Law in 1862. That
means, even during the days of slavery, some Blacks were acceptable to
Whites as husbands/wives. This is mind boggling. Blacks were unfit to
be free citizens, but fit enough for wedlock and sexual encounters!

Intrinsically outlandish for knowledge, Americans have a rich history
of research on race relations including Black-White sexuality and
matrimony. In pursuits of knowledge, White and Black intellectuals
turn autonomous of their racial foundations.

"The Whites' belief that Blacks' sexuality was far greater than their
own," writes Prof Donald G Mathews in his seminal work Religion in the
Old South. In his book, Prof Donald refers to the days of slavery, and
Whites' fears of superlative black powers in the sexual realm. Noted
sociologist Prof Calvin C Hernton in his celebrated book Sex and Race
in America has made startling conclusions. According to Prof Calvin,
"Unable to experience the Negro in fact, the Negro in fantasy becomes
the centre of the white woman's sexual life — she elevates him to the
status of a God."

"I submit that almost every southern white woman has experienced, at
one time or another, an intense desire to make love with a black man,"
Prof Calvin adds.

More than anybody else, Susan Grain Bakos is a name recognised
globally. A White woman, her book Sexational Secrets: The Ultimate
Guide for Erotic is a must read to all those who want to understand
why White women are mad for Black men.

"The Internet has made it a lot easier for us to find each other now.
Women write: seeking tall, dark, and handsome. Very dark," Susan
begins. "Black men are two and a half times more likely to marry a
white woman than a black woman is to marry a white man," she adds.
"Black men have more energy, style and edge than white men. They know
how to flirt, a nearly lost art among the rest of us. A black man is
sexy because he knows how to make a woman feel sexy," theorises Susan.
"Black men have something white guys don't have anymore: confidence in
their masculinity, their sexuality. They clearly know they're men.
White men appear to be waiting for the latest sociological research
study to let them know if they are men or not", Susan emphasises. In
order to crack the secret, Susan had sexual encounters with men of
different races and nationalities.

The latest news that has broken out in a NOIDA village is that a
non-Dalit girl was burnt alive by her parents. Burnt to death, she was
cut into pieces, thrown around on a plot of land, and plowed to
eliminate her existence even in death. She had married a Dalit of her
choice. Every day we read stories of Dalit youth being murdered for
'eloping' with non-Dalit women. So many non-Dalit young girls are
killed for marrying Dalits. Still, so many non-Dalit women are risking
their lives and families' 'honour' for Dalit men. What is there in
Dalit men?

Shouldn't some non-Dalit psychologists, biologists and sociologists
turn Americans and explain as why non-Dalit women are mad for Dalit
men?
