How Do I Love The OK Cupid, Let Me Count the Ways

[cinema_babe]

Dear Bob432,

For future reference, "I've never dated a black woman, would you to be my first?" is not an alluring come on. Never. Especially if this is the full text of your message. Just stop. Now.

For the record, I am not "a black woman"; I am Cinemababe (real name redacted). I am a 3 dimensional person with interests and a history and a future. Did you even bother to read my fucking profile? Or, did you just look at the screen and say, "Hmmm, who's black, female and within a 15 mile radius of here?"

But that's right, you don't care about what my favorite movie is or what kind of food I like. You just want a date with "a black woman". You insult me and should me ashamed of yourself.

Regards,
Cinemababe

Yeah I get this happens to anyone who is an "other" but the "otherness" he hit me up for was race so that's the part of me that is indignant. Does it happen to others? Of course it does but for 10 minutes I just had to fight the battle for me.

I really hope that guy gets athlete's foot.
