We met and married in California where it's much more liberal than in the South where I live now. In California it wasn't an issue, but when we moved here, Black men were pretty vocal on how they felt about it. I can respect everyone's opinion, but it wasn't as if I swore off all Black men, I just happened to fall for a Mexican man (who unfortunately turned out to be abusive, but that's another topic for another day). I've always loved and preferred Black men, but I do not take issue with people who just love who they love.
