Yea, I don't see enough dark skinned babies anymore
It hurts my heart that IF I see a black man spending time with his child(ren) outside, the majority of the time the child(ren) is biracial.
I see it daily. Rarely do I see a black man with black babies.

This is so true. It bothers me too, because it makes me feel like were gradually losing our identity. Interracial couples are great and all, but when all the black men have mixed kids, its irritating. Like, what's so wrong with having a Hershey baby dammit.

I think most people do not understand how Toronto is, that don't llive here. Which is to be expected, but pls take our word for it. Seriously, from what I see, I wouldn't say black on black love is booming. I wouldn't say IR relationships aren't prevalent, I wouldn't say us dark women get a lot of love and respect. Most of the children ages 1-12 I see are biracial. Most of the fat dirty looking white women are pushing biracial children in strollers. And black men take pride in their light skinned, 'good haired' babies by being seen in public with them.
Just my experience.
I just really hope us black women can find love and adoration too, and not feel like our men are running from us.
It further contributes to the color complex and the good hair bad hair issue. It does feel like we are becoming extinct. At least for the city I live in. Now of course if I go back to Guyana, black babies are everywhere. So it is societal and subject to change.
Sorry to kind of go off topic.

I love my people and our men, and if anyone has ever paid attention to any I say on here, they would know that.
Anyway, I have a wonderful black man whom I am in love with and engaged to marry. However, I see what I see.
Also, this is not a 'white' city. Hundreds of people migrate to Canada per day, Thousands per year, and many of them come to Toronto from the South East Asia, middle east, Africa, and the Caribbean. Oh and the Philippines!

Derri ain't black male bashing but lets not act brand new, lots of women on this forum do that
Derri is keeping it real and Derri girl I feel you 100%
The thing that kills me is Tdot is not a white city like that, it is very diverse so these problems shouldn't exist.
