Alright, Nigerian men in my mentions that are super excited. This may not largely apply to you
First of all, no oyinbo woman is moving to Lagos to live with you on your 250k Access bank salary

Secondly, your only hope of marrying an oyinbo is if you& #39;re marrying an older oyinbo person for passport (this applies to Naija women living in Naija too)
So unless you& #39;re among the 0.5% filthy rich, sorry to you

This is purely my opinion based on careful observation and research
My focus will, for the most part, be on Black people in English speaking countries. US largely and possibly UK

A lot of this study revolves around money and economic class
Also, colourism plays a supporting role

We see everyday that wealthy black men, especially the ones in the public eye in careers such as media, entertainment and sports, tend to go for non-black women
I& #39;m not saying there is anything right or wrong with it. Go for who you want

My assumption is that it& #39;s a status thing
Non-black women have for the longest time been the symbol of "beauty"
Everyday we have conversations on European standards of beauty
Plus "white means better". That& #39;s an insecurity problem amongst our community, deny it if you want

Their reasons for marrying these women is based on that. The women& #39;s reasons for that is based on his wealth and aesthetically pleasing, racially ambiguous kids
Again, not saying this is bad or good
Just their reasons

While there are few outliers, it is not common to see these men with "wealthy white women". They have their wealthy white men already
Again, this is where I mentioned economic class comes to play
Cue your favourite musicians, athletes etc.

They may have been with black women when they were on the come up, but as soon as they are made, the dynamics change.
I& #39;m stressing that there are outliers like LeBron oh! Before you guys come for my head

But you& #39;re hardly gonna see any of these famous men pick a non-wealthy black babe. I mean, they& #39;re not even picking the wealthy ones https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy">
With black women marrying white men, it& #39;s a whole different dynamic
How many wealthy white men do you see with black women? The few you see are definitely not going for the non-wealthy ones that& #39;s for sure
In those relationships they are most likely in the same economic class

Ah... Colourism
I forgot to add, the black men especially these days acting woke and suddenly pro-black, will go for the lightest shades of black women as a token. That way you can& #39;t exactly come for them. Better still racially ambiguous

So while they can go on and on about loving melanin and hyping black women, they would never go for a Lupita-looking woman and they definitely don& #39;t want any 4c hair
