The African attraction/affinity

Are Africans and Islanders the Craziest and Biggest Head-Cases to Date?

So I have noticed, in my personal life, that MANY folks have an attraction or affinity to African guys both hetero and non-hetero. For the sake of Cypheravenue audience I will stick to the non-hetero side. I have seen Black African Americans, Black Europeans, Blacks from the United Kingdom go crazy about them (mostly Nigerians).
I was talking to this dude and then he used a word VERY Nigerian, first off this word isn't English and one would have to had be around many Nigerians or dated a Nigerian for a long time to know such a word. I asked dude(laughing) where in the hell did he hear that word from? and he replied that his Ex was Nigerian and most of his non-hetero friends are Nigerian or another African country. He then proceeded to show me pictures of his Ex and his friends and then it all made sense to me.
So here are some reasons I think lot of Black non-hetero guys are attracted to Africans;
They are very Masculine: When you see them they exude the image of MAN! Its their African features, the nose, the dark skin, they way they carry themselves, the confidence and also that most of them are not Fem or even Fem leaning. I think this has ( I am no professional the topic) to do with Africa's Homophobia and the rigid ideas of masculinity that young boys are raised around. Which fucks with their head when they start dating guys, but that's another Thread/dissertation
They are very chill dudes: When dude talked about his friends they were very chill guys, I even wish I had friends like that. They were just regular dudes who happened to like dudes (dunno if that made sense, but that's the only words I have to describe them)

They love deep,very caring and addictive; From those I have seen and even testimony from dude, the love and care was amazing. Even though the relationship might end due to other issues, there is never the doubt or question of 'Did he love or care for me?'. I am guessing that love and care is what keeps many non-hetero dudes dating Africans or hanging around African dudes. From my white friends who have dated Africans, they say they have never felt such passion in their life before. It always cracks me up when a white dude hits me up on the app's with a Nigerian greeting, I say to myself he has been touched by that passion. lol or those that have 'Africans to the front of the line' on their profile( those I give a wicked eye roll)

They are very good looking dudes; I mean what do I say about this one but PREACH!!! Hello Anthony Joshua



These are just a few that come to my mind when I thought about it, they are so many more I think might be better told from the perspective of dudes that date them or have an affinity to have them as friends.

******I must say dating an African who has not gotten over his issues of being attracted to dudes or cares what folks say, is and will be VERY challenging. I do not mean physical abuse or anything of the sort, but mental and psychological hoops to jump over, boundaries to break, huge walls to bulldoze, nails and egg shells to work on. So proceed with caution!**** lol
