i think there are more negative stereotypes about indian men when it comes to dating maybe ? differences in culture/ religion might have influenced too

speaking only for my personal experience (which is also how I voted), I have met black men who range from assholes to great guys. i have basically no preconceived notions about black men. however, every indian guy i have ever met has been extremely rude and made me uncomfortable. it's fewer total people, but still enough to give me the impression that it's a trend. so i voted based on my past experiences.

It’s not seen as bad to be racist towards Indians for whatever reason 😭 think about all the sitcoms where the Indian character is the only one who can’t get a girlfriend

This is so weird to me bc the negative stereotypes about Indians are like “they smell like curry” and the ones about black men are like “they’re going to rob you”

yeahh i think the stereotypes for both groups are just… different ? there’s also stereotypes/ generalizations about black men that might positively impact them too in the dating market.

to women, from what i understand the stereotypes aren’t that they smell of curry. in indian there is a lot of sexual violence and violence in general toward women so the stereotype is that they can be rude and violent toward us. i’m sure some of us have had that experience so we’re put off by indian men. (not saying it’s okay, just explaining)

White women do not like black men in general very rare to even see one marry a black guy in the first place. They are one of the most “race loyal” groups in America when it comes to marriage after black women
