Why do white people believe this...?
Why do white people think black people have big noses, when black people actually have small noses compared to white people. I actually can't believe white people think there noses are small.
actually I hear white people say it all the time. And a few of my white friends told me my nose was small for a black guy.

you can find black people with small noses, white people with big noses...white people with small noses and black people with big noses. you can;t categorize and say that any one race has this, that, or the other because it goes by an individual basis and not by what race you are. duh. the ignorance in this world is overwhelming.

We do have wide noses in general. But with size not all black people noses are extremely large and wide look at Beyonce's nose. Hers is perfectly fine.

Don't worry about it. People sterotype each other like that. The more you think about it, the more angry you'll get it. Read a book or something.

Any white person who believes that has obviously not been around many black people and are probably prejudice or even a racist.

They're silly.
Some of them have loooooooooong noses. I've never seen a black person with a long nose... have you?

Well, noses come in an array of shapes and sizes and one particular pattern is not only extended to certain races. But for the most part, I think black people have wide or flat noses compared to white people who have narrow, longer and more pointed noses. But I know plenty of people who don't fit that standard, some black people have small, pointed button noses why some white people have large noses...it depends on one genetics and facial structure.

Black nose= small, flat and wide
White nose= long, pointy and beaked nose
See we all have our defects.

cause they do, not being racist but 90% of black people have "big" noses which means wide I guess.
