My parents were both teachers and I became exposed to WASP culture only after college (I went to an HBC). Now I am really enamored by that culture and lifestyle, The Great Gatsby kind of people. The kind of guys who live in Georgetown or Chevy Chase and wear pink bow ties and Brooks Brothers and belong to country clubs and wear tennis whites to the court.
Do these kinds of guys date black women? Where do I meet these guys? What do they look for in a wife? It's not MONEY I'm after, just that culture and lifestyle.
Please don't reply if you just want to criticize me. You're entitled to your opinion, and I'm entitled to my preferences. Don't respond to this thread if you just want to boast about how you didn't marry for superficial reasons - good for you. You are not me. Don't reply to this thread if that's all you've got to say.
If you have answers to my questions ("Do these kinds of guys date black women? Where do I meet these guys? What do they look for in a wife?") or if you are a man who fits this criteria and want to share some insights, I'd love to hear from you!
I'm going to give it to you straight. Unless you're a Lena Horne or Dorothy Dandridge type, then give up the fantasy quick before your feelings get hurt. If you're light bright and look damn near white, then there is a window of opportunity for you. Sometimes even women who resemble Lena Horne aren't even accepted into certain WASP circles especially the southern ones. If you don't come from a pedigree of wealth, then it will be extremely difficult to enter into a WASP circle. You may want to entertain the circles of elitists' AA's here in DC first to get a taste of what the culture is like. Read Otis Graham's "Our Kind of People :Inside of America's Black Upper Class". See if this is the type of lifestyle that you really want.
By the way, there are tons of interracial dating/marriage sites. I highly recommend European men over the men here in the states. You could find a wealthy white man who doesn't have the characteristics of a WASP. The WASP and black elite culture here in America are extremely exclusive and brutal towards those who are not like them.
