8 Reasons To Date An African Man

October 26th, 2011 - By MN Editor

Chances are, you’ve already made an assumption about the nature of this post. Let me clear some things up now. This is not a post telling you to date an African man over an African-American man. No indeed. It is about giving our motherland brothers a chance. For some, the idea of dating an African man conjures up a lot of myths and fears like the image of the over-controlling man.  There’s good and bad aspects to any person out there but here to make light of the topic and just offer up some of the good stuff about dating an African man. Of course, you understand by now that this is a very subjective, yet fun, list. Let us know what your experiences have been in the comments!

"Chiwetel Ejiofor"
They Are Chivalrous 

It’s that simple. They have good manners and a strong sense of chivalry – something that is quickly eroding amongst all our home-grown American men. Hey, they come from societies that are not as progressive when it comes to women’s rights but women are more cared for in their countries at the same time. So don’t worry, he’ll for sure be a gentleman and pay for your first date, second date, etc. We know that sounds like common courtesy but these days, it’s no guarantee.

    This was the stupidest stereotypical, not well thoughtout “article” I ever GLANCED through

    African men are much better than Black Americans. They have culture, respect, language, and history which seperates them from the American thugs. They excel in the U.S unlike some other men I know. I am happily married to an African doctor!!

    I agree, whoever wrote this should be very ashamed of themselves. I’m American and I was very offended by this article. I think this person should do more research on Africa and the people there. Africa is the motherland and I have great respect for the country but just as people have children there they also do here. I have a lot of aunts uncles and cousins. What I love about African men is that they have the most upright respect for women. This person need to get their facts right.

    It is disappointing to see such a stereotypical, homogenous, and ignorant portrayal of African men. Especially when these men come from a continent with various countries, tribes languages and cultures that are diverse.
