What is it about older white men and young minority women?

Okay... am about to ask a question which might sound.. well, not politically correct. I'll try not to sound too offensive or out of the line, of course, so bear with me? Okay... I am a young woman of color, a Hispanic if you will. I have tanned olive skin, dark eyes, and have long black wavy/curly hair. So anyway, you would think I'd might attract other men of color... but I do not. The only demographic brave enough to come up to me and flirt with me are older white men, like 30 and over. I'm pretty sure I do not look white either, I look otherwise, so shouldn't that scare them? It's not innocent flirting either... and no, I don't dress a certain way, I always cover myself up and hardly if ever wear makeup. And it confuses me because, don't they come from a time period (the very older ones especially) where not only were women seen as objects, but non-whites as downright inferior? I would thought that these men would stay the hell away from me, but I attract them like honey attracting bees. Needless to say, I'm a bit disturbed.

So, what is it about older white men and young minority women?

Update:

30 is not old you're right but at my age now it is a stretch from where I am, lol.

    They think you are an easy prey. White women have feminism, they can't be controlled anymore. These old white males think moronically that they can control minority women easier. They don't have the balls to deal with white women anymore so they try their luck with impressionable "weaker" minority women.

    That's why they chase after younger girls. They have lost so much to women in society that their only chance is with young "naive" girls.

    You need to get some young latino male friends. That will do the trick.

    Older people in general have much more confidence than those who are young. They don't mind giving a compliment where a compliment is due whereas guys your age may be a bit shy.

    The media has led many to believe that beauty has color. These lies cause minority women to become shocked when a man of a different race is attracted to them. Most fail to realize that the media is filled with white women who can only express their views. These women cannot speak for men because men think totally different from us, they only showcase what/who they find attractive, and most times it's not a minority. It saddens me to see women not understanding why a man of a different race finds them attractive. You should be able to look in the mirror and clearly see why. Men, unlike most women, love beauty. They don't necessarily care what color it is. However, society does play a major role in how a man may react to that attraction. On the other hand, older men have lived long enough and made enough mistakes and could care less about what "society" and the "media" thinks.

    Some do, my old White professors almost always like me and I'm always like the only Black girl around. Plus, those guys check me out a lot. Yesterday I wore White pants and I'm not sure what guys like about that, but the weirdest moment of my day yesterday was walking past two older White men on a bench who were talking and I noticed the guy stopped in the middle of his sentence, and I glanced back and they were both staring at me and my butt. I walked further up and still felt weird, and looked back and they were talking but still were both looking at me. My pants weren't dirty either or anything, lol. Guys stare at me a lot, and smile a lot and out of those some hit on me, and yeah older White guys do too.

    I often encounter the SAME thing. Older white guys 45+ approach me very frequently. This is the demoraphic that approaches me the most, even more than white guys my age and any black man. I heavily attract older white men and I'm not sure why. LOL.

    For beginners, no white man in America was "taught" that blacks were inferior unless he was taught that at home by bigoted parents. So, that is a stereotype I would get rid of immediately.

    Look at personal ads on online dating sites, black women heavily look for white men because they tend to be professional and educated. Why wouldn't these men be attracted to you? Most black women do not like black guys because the majority do not have a college education or a good job. It's just reality, a lot of black women have both.

    What is it about Hispanic men always dating white women? I am a 34 year old man who has dated Hispanic women before(lost my virginity to one). If I didn't then who would I have dated? Hispanic men take a lot of our women. I once had a white wife and this Hispanic guy was always over at our house hitting on her,pretending that he wanted to borrow movies ect.. He had his own white wife at home for cryin' out loud, and now he was coming after mine. Anyway, I have a Hispanic girlfriend right now as a matter of fact, and she is gorgeous. I wouldn't change a thing about her. Hispanic women are beautiful so why wouldn't men want them? Men like women. Trust me when I say that your Hispanic men like white women, and they are hitting on them left and right. By the way I have an older sister that looks like a Barbie doll, and low and behold she is married to a Hispanic man.

    Lol @ you thinking 30 is old.

    Girl, calm down. They probably like you because you seem friendly. Or maybe some assume you'll respond to their advances simply because they're white. You never can tell. If you don't like them, let them know and move on.

    Hmm....I was going to question why you think some of the things that you do based on what you wrote in your comment but I'll just say that you need to educate yourself a little bit more and don't generalize so much.

    I think the user 'Kay' has the best response here.
