Yet I could give you three examples right now.

Jessica Jones, Holes, Jungle Fever

Wow, good for you! I guess the fact that it's extremely uncommon is surprise not true after all.

(Anonymous) 2016-09-07 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
"fact"

"true"

Mmmkay.

(Anonymous) 2016-09-07 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
That proves nothing

Like, it's definitionally anecdotal and useless

(Anonymous) 2016-09-07 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Um, so is the supposed "fact" I was replying to...

(Anonymous) 2016-09-07 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
That wasn't anecdotal. They said it was less common than expected, not that it would never happen. They didn't include the evidence in their post but that's not the same as being anecdotal.

(Anonymous) 2016-09-07 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
OK, so not anecdotal. Just useless.

If you're going to keep up the boring ole same-anoning, please at least link me to this statistical evidence that black man/white woman pairings are "like, notoriously uncommon" or at least tell me what you're basing that on kthx.

Would you list a list of every movie/tv show that doesn't have a black man/white woman romance?

(Anonymous) 2016-09-08 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
I mean, really, this is what we ought to do to talk about this. And it's not impossible but it would be a hell of a lot of work to make the dataset.

DA

At the very least, we ought to have evidence comparing the numbers of m/f vs. f/m black/white interracial pairings. And it wouldn't hurt to have the numbers of black/non-black POC, black/black, and non-black POC/non-black POC pairings, too.

The number of white/white pairings is so ridiculously high that I think it's not strictly necessary to count them all in order to have a reasonable discussion on this topic. But we do need some kind of hard evidence, or else all we're doing is arguing based on ~feels.
