Thread Name: BS: Rape on Reservations
Subject: RE: BS: Rape on Reservations
Sounds like some of Shane's buddies, Rapaire...
Those types figure that the entire female half of the race deeply desires them, but yeah, they do figure they have special advantages when it comes to getting favors from non-white girls. It's race prejudice. It's class prejudice too.
People are always curious, sexually speaking, about people of a different race, religion, or culture. It's the old "grass is greener on the other side" thing...or it's the "forbidden fruit" concept.
For instance, when I was down in Mexico I noted the very keen interest Mexican men had in blonde women with Anglo or Nordic features. Matter of fact, the Mexican women seemed to find blonde men pretty attractive too. ;-) (This didn't help me any...I've got dark brown hair. And I was painfully shy at the time, anyway.) I had a friend who was blonde, and he got hit on like you wouldn't believe. He was too young at the time to be quite ready to take full advantage of the situation, though. In another year or two he would have been in heaven.
That kind of cross-cultural attraction thing gets a lot nastier when a group of people feel more powerful, dominant, and culturally privileged...as in the case of the young men you mention.
