Being black has nothing to do with my judgements based on her, it's more of her appearance, mannerisms, etc etc.

I can't stand the majority of African Americans. Excuse me for being racist against my own race. I've met a lot of cool people, but most of them piss me off and I don't like being associated with them.

I hope you're not also against racism. It'd suck to be a hypocrite and an uppity negro all in one.

Going from past experiences with various people, it really wouldn't be reasonable for me to stereotype based on race.

Example:

My husband's mother (black woman) is the sweetest and most down to earth woman you could ever meet in your life.  She's very considerate, quick witted, and just all around lovely.

One of my step father's sisters (black woman) is a loud mouthed, ignorant, welfare queen who thinks squeezing her XL ass into a size 4-6 is sexy.

Same race.  Very different people.

i dont have stereotype because i know a lot of black girls.

maybe id assume shes pretty bold and speaks out strong because i know a lot of black girls like that. but i also know some shy black girls. id assume she knows what she wants and tells me.

Being assertive is not always a positive quality.  If you're at the right level, it's great, but once you become too assertive, you're a loud mouth regardless of your race.

A person who is just assertive is confident and positive.  A person who has made it to loud mouth status is overly assertive and allows everything that pops into her head to run out her mouth without taking a second to decide if it really needs to be said.

too assertive = aggressive. not the same. try again.

No, which is why I'd said in the bit before that you can be a loud mouth regardless of race.

My first impression would depend on her personality.  Yes, I would see that she was black but I am not one of those people who wouldn't get to know the person because of it.

I don't date outside of my race.

On the contrary, I'm not racist/prejudice whatsoever..
I hope your post was sarcastic.

no it was not...well then why don't you date anyone out of your race?
