This week’s question on Monday’s With Mike addresses the opinion of Australian men concerning the beauty of Black Women.
“Black Women are constantly bombarded with preset definitions of “beauty” and in many cases criticized for their looks by men of the same ethnicity. What makes a Black Woman attractive/appealing to you in particular, and to Australian men in general?”
Mike’s response:
It’s kind of hard to describe why you feel the attraction to a particular person or people, or describe why you have a type you prefer.
I guess for me it’s something I feel in the marrow of my bones, just an attraction I have always had. If you wanted to go into specifics I think it is likely to do with how whenever I see Black Women, it seems like there is an inner light radiating out of them. I see it come through their eyes and skin, and it’s just beautiful.
It’s also the way they hold themselves; their style and grace. Also, they know how to hold a great conversation I’ve found, and have some excellent perspectives on life different to my own – which is great as it helps me see things in a different light.
For Australian men I think those who want to date BW usually would feel similar; love a BW’s special style of beauty and grace, as well as the fact that you’re different, stand out, and are exotic and mysterious. Men love that, they love to follow and find out things about people from different places, especially Australians as we’re all stuck down here on this massive island with no way to get out except via boat or plane! If you come to us, we’re just that much happier!
Cheers!

Jackbyron,
Thanks so much for stopping by – and thanks for commenting! We BW appreciate the positive comments and affirmations!
quite a lot, aesthetically you mean? lips and wise eyes in particular.. (actually… i like braids too.. lame I know…lol) nice skin, come to think of it nice bodies too, (hehe..) should I go on?? Id say more generally about women wherever theyre from personality wise, the ability to be direct and friendly, african american women can balance that, similar to, but probably better than australian women x
