When it comes to the ‘science' of dating, The Art of Charm adheres to one simple philosophy: If you want to get the girl you like, then you need to become a better man.
Guys, "Don't Be An Interracial Dating Lech!"
So you might be on this site because you have an affinity for someone of another race, and as the possibility of connecting with someone who lights your fire is blown to smithereens because you sent some cheesy pick-up line saying any and all variations of the following...
"I just love my chocolate."
"I've got a bad case of jungle fever!"
Your perfect partner could be online right now...
What are you looking for?
"I love how Asian women are so submissive"
" I love hot and spicy Latinas!"
Those pitiful lines might sound good in your own head, but no woman wants to be fetishized object, interchangeable with another other woman in her racial group. Nobody wants to be treated like a non-person. Trust me, you'll get a lot more interest if you treat the women you approach with more respect. Here are a few do's and don'ts to ensure a better swirling success record:
Do avoid cliches and stereotypes like the plague! When you see someone attractive, comment on what about her as a individual caught your eye. Does she have a nice smile? Did you recognize the place in her hiking picture? Did you grow up in a town nearby where she did? Mentioning something that is unique to her will show her that you're really looking at her, and not just fishing.
Don't mention her anatomy in a lecherous, racially-specific way. Even if you "love you some black girl booties" it's best to keep that to yourself, my friend. And another big no-no is asking for naked pictures...c'mon, dude...
Don't let your entire interest in a relationship be about a girl's ethnicity. Again, she is a person, and should be treated with respect for her individuality.
Do discuss your preferences with her (in a respectful manner) once you've made a connection and have gotten to know her as a person.

Iggyziggy says:Posted: 11 AprIt depends how one says “ I love the melanin” or such If it’s said lecherously it’s a turn off ,and I agree fully, but personally I find the way I say it makes girls laugh , but it’s said in a comedic way with a big dollop of admiration and respect .after all it’s not the words, it’s the intent

Let the recipients of such cheesiness be the judges. Some people go for the cheese. Get your own personal game up, then maybe you won't worry about how OTHERS run theirs. You self loathing hater

Jdsj says:Posted: 30 Apr 17Thought about that after I joined this site. You know what? At my age....even though I look, and feel younger than my age. After reading a lot of these ladies profiles......it really didn't matter what their ethnicity was. Life is 10% what happens to you , and 90% of how you react to it.

I'm not a woman, but I imagine a playful name "looking4myCofeeCream" is just playful laughter. And of course, the way they talk together when they think we aren't listening is "occasionally" naughty, but I have a feeling they don't spend much time talking that way. All we can do is give them great respect, accept some failures, keep our heads high, noses straight, and take some occasional risks with playful compliments. (If one chooses.)

KJusThis1nce says:Posted: 15 Dec 16I completely agree, but guess what, as sson as i sign in to this dating site, what do i see but profile after profile, with names or titles, Ms. Mocha, ILuvMyVanilla or lookin4dacream4mycoffee, i could go on and on with the name and comments that we're not supposed to make, which i don't, so how are we to take these women serious?

But you no k, it's crazy because we as men get looked at totally different if we did that. As men we will always get judgement casted down on us as the tin can man from the wizard of Oz, with no heart. We are human beings to with hearts and mans lives matter 2 lol. So sincerely spoken from the heart, Mack

This is true for gay men as well. It is especially hard for a white gay male who hass a preference for men of color. Everyone assumes they are all about "size", when it is so much more.

Really lol so your race is supposed to be God now are something. The white man isn't as smart as you think and when it comes to technology and advancement, the Chinese race has every one beat on that note but that's another story because this is God's earth and we are his creation. Better said is where would humanity be with out him period

Mostly after January 20th 2017, the only women on this site that are still open to I.R dating are black women. This is sad but true.

I find this article offensive in both racial and gender terms. 99.999% of men don't need lecturing on their conduct. Why isn't some advice given to women, many of whom promote their ethnicity on this site? Also what about advising the gold diggers to avoid being just that...easy to spot with lines like 'love to be spoiled', 'looking to be taken care of', 'treated like a queen' or some just blatantly saying they are looking for financial support. Why everything is turned round on men offends me deeply. Terrible article.

ccwilliams76 says:Posted: 03 Jul 16
Actually a lot of guys do need lecturing in how they approach women, and vice versa. I have been on a lot of different sites, including this one, and by and large, the majority of men tend to objectify women as sexual objects or trophies to be displayed on their arm when they go out, unfortunately the 90% of men who do this ruin it for the 10% of us trying to find that real romance. I have gone so far as to create fake female profiles just to test the waters of certain sites and sadly my research has proven those statistics as accurate, in that 85-90% of the emails I received either ignored what I wrote in my profile or were outright sexist and disrespectful to the extreme, comments such as: "you are hot, we should f*ck" being the norm. So a man who doesn't want advice or a lecture as you put it, on how to respect a woman he is interested in is doomed to ruin it for everyone else, himself included.

Well, some black women allow it. I am a BW and I take issue with this. I don't know or ever met a BW that would allow a man to treat her in this manner. Actually BW seem to demand more from WM and non-BM than they do BM. Which in my opinion is part of the problem.

Dts11 says:Posted: 27 Nov 17
Well. No disrespect to you. I have met many BW that admitted that they are seeking "certain income " brackets. I am BW and I take issue with this.

So basically you are having trouble attracting women rather they are Black, White or other. Not everything is about the other person. Sometimes you have to take a deep look at yourself.

I've dated a 'woman of color' before and she told me she's 'Black' and 'not into the PC crap'. When she said that, I knew she was just fine with me. I'm not into that either-I see a woman as a woman. Does'nt make any difference to me what race/ethnicity she is and what race/ethnicity her children are. They're here and so am I and if we get along and like each other after finding out more about each other, all is well. I don't get what the big issue is and why someone would waste time and emotional energy if they're not serious.

morpheousx says:Posted: 18 Dec 13This has done nothing but help these types of men, to hide their true intentions. I would rather a person, say those things to me, therefore show their true self, so i can stand clear of them. Now that they have been tipped off, they will take their fetishes on the down low and just pretend to look at women of color as individuals but in actuality, look at them as fetishes and a fantasy to for fill, nothing more. I say, let them ask for nude pictures, let them use those corny lines. It makes it a lot easier to see them coming, therefore time won't be wasted, courting these fakes and phonies.

jimtwobees says:Posted: 31 Aug 13Love it, Jordan. Thanks. Good topic. Ladies, the same is true in reverse...if you are dealing with a gentleman. "Want me some cream in my chocolate," doesn't go nearly as far as,"Will you be as chivalrous in person as you are in my dreams?" Or, "In search of the man who touches my soul and enlivenes my spirit." Use the right bait...Or you'll keep right on catching the same old fish.

This is a great topic! I am now happily married with another child on the way. So I thank god and AR that I am not looking any more. However in my years of searching for right wife , I met scores of women who all had at least one crazy story of similar events of guys saying something totally cheesy, asking for nude pics, showing private parts in the chat room (is that even allowed?) All before even asking for 1st name , interest, reading the profiles etc. Some people don't know how to date period, now add internet and Interracial into the equation? On another note, I'm sure men are mostly guilty of this, most likely even white men. However I came across similar statements /behavior from a couple of black women lacking intercultural, communication and/or dating skills. Let's see I've heard "I'm addicted to white men" "I need my vanilla swirl on" " I need me some cream in my coffee" Ladies and Gentlemen, the fact that you are even on an Interracial dating site IS a HUGE clue that you are interested in another race, no need for our super hero "Capt. Obviously" to fly in and make it THAT clear. On a final note, I truly wish the best for all of those sincerely seeking love.

Coaching Testimonial
"The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience"
Submitted by: Karen, USA, 34
My Dating Coach really took the time to go through my profile thoroughly. First she viewed my pictures and gave me great feedback.
She read through the written portion of my profile, line by line, and gave direct feedback on how to add my personality to it.
My amazing consultant, even asked how my contacts where going and offered a few suggestions to increase my interactions with new men.
I took her advice and made the suggested adjustments.
I have received more contact from men, more views, and have started communicating with more people which was the whole point of joining the site in the first place.
The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience. Thanks!

It's funny how all these articles about men doing this or that never assume WOMEN say those same damn things to us. Hell, you have a problem with guys objectifying you? I have a problem with girls status symboling me! Seriously, these articles always point to what men aren't doing and how they need to change, never assuming women have a lot of biases themselves and should learn about some of our issues. But, hey, guys are an easy target. Mention one slightly unflattering thing about a girl and, if you're a guy, you'll have an army of irate SJWs aiming for your head.
