So I guess race is not a social construct anymore when it suits your fantasies?

There's some confusion about what "race is a social construct" means. Race is a social construct in the sense that we perceive Barack Obama as Black, even though his parents were Black and white. There's no reason why it would necessarily have to be this way; it just ended up being this way because of the way we socially construct race. I have been toying around with this concept on here for a while, suggesting that maybe this social construction could change when faced with a new demographic reality:

But "social construct" obviously doesn't mean "fiction". Blackness is a very real phenomenon; Black people have their own way of relating to one another and the world, their own sense of beauty, their own special vibe, and white interracialists find this so attractive that they wish to mix with it or be part of it in some way. I occasionally get criticized that this just amounts to fetishism, and that's a fair point, but intimate human relations can't really exist without some amount of adoration and idealization. As long as whites approach this topic with appropriate deference and remember their place in this dynamic (they are the ones trying to join an exclusive club, not the other way around), it should hopefully be a mutually enjoyable experience.

Of course "joining the club" doesn't mean whites can become Black. But they can signal their allegiance to Team Black, if you will. How to express that is an individual decision, but I'd guess everyone gets the message when it looks like this:

But let's go back to those social constructs for a moment. I suspect the lovely lady above is quite aware that she and her presumed husband can create new Black life - and given the way we construct race, only Black life. And I suspect she's quite happy to participate in that. But even if that wasn't on her mind, she and him would still be making Black lives, and only Black lives, if she got pregnant. In fact, if the roles were reversed and this was a white man / Black woman couple, they too could only make Black lives.

That's a social construct. It's also extremely relevant in the way we identify people. You could make an abstract argument about how white partners aren't really surrendering their whiteness in these interracial relationships, but that's not how it's being perceived. It's not a Europeanization of the Black partner, it's an Africanization of the white partner.

So you can argue that all of this is my fantasy and it's not real, because social constructs. Of course I would love to see more white people become consciously pro-Black and Africanize their lives in some way. Even if they won't though, the social constructs are leading us to the same outcome. See, this woman here has merely been socially constructed to be Black, so if more or less everyone looks like that by the end of the century, nothing has really changed, right - it's just a social construct:

What do you think of adult film companies using and/or popularizing terms, aesthetics and catchphrases that are (or become) particularly common in interracialist circles? "Blacked" is an obvious one, but Blacked Raw uses things like "Boy bye," "Night out," "After Party Vibes", and "About last night..." captions on pictures of white girls with black men. Meanwhile, typing Black is Better dot com takes you to the interracial-only section of the Babes website, with interracial Valentine's Day content or cuckold videos with titles such as "PALES in comparison." It seems like these companies not only cater to the people who love this content, but pushes it forward with "lingo" that started in the IR community in the first place...

Like all other successful companies, adult film companies produce content that their target demographic likes. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the high-end companies used focus groups and polling to determine which phrases and promo images "hit the mark".

Adult IR material is targeted to men (and a growing number of women) who are attracted to the racial aspect. The color contrast, the size difference, the bittersweet sensation of seeing beautiful women with handsome men who look nothing like you. So of course companies play up that angle in their material.

What do I think of it? I think it's great that adult IR material of high quality is being produced and promoted in a way that helps it find its way to even more people.

If it results in even more white guys pacified in front of the screen tugging at their wieners, while inspiring more white girls to explore what dark-skinned men have to offer, I'm all for it.
