The Non-Partisan Response
[QUOTE=Hughdad] I guess we can only conclude that the fact that you choose to include such viewpoints here again and again reveals your personal feelings.[/QUOTE]Hey man, thanks for your constructive comments. No, your quote above is, fortunately not accurate. I tried to caveat that these were not my personal feelings, but, just that it is what is being said or relayed to me. Whether it is true or not, I'm just passing on the going gossip. If it were my opinion, you might see something like: "I don't understand why white/European guys overpay so much; they're stupid for doing so and shows x, y, z." The closest I may have come to that is my "rules for approaching a Help girl" when I mention the general hazards of overpaying. Thinking back on it (I'm not actually going back to the report, but), maybe I could have worded some things differently.
To all who have commented to this end on my observations and relaying of information, let me be clear: I don't care who overpays for whatever reason (hell, I'm sure to some, I even overpaid--which I'm pretty sure of myself. The right price comes with experience in country and with women in general), I don't care how anyone is in bed--I only care about what my personal experience is. I don't want to discourage anyone from visiting Rio for fear their skin color might give them a bad experience, but, I do want to offer. To all mongers. Information on perceptions that may be able to arm them for their trip, so they can be prepared for what is going to be thrown at them (I. E. Potentially higher prices or expectations of quick service by the GDPs). I have friends from every shade of the rainbow and have all of my life. I have also mongered side by side with mongers from all over the world in Brazil, Colombia, DomRep, Panama, Germany and Amsterdam--its not about race. I have personally talked to guys (white and European) that have approached a girl and she flat out told them that she prefers men with darker skin for whatever reason. Also, I have personally been told by women and mongers (the guys, who, interestingly enough used this to brag that they could get any girl) that they will try to go with white/European men first because they can get more money. These are facts (as presented to me, characteristic of some chicas and GDPs), not my opinion.
Now, this part is my opinion. My observations are NOT out of the realm of reality. For those that know the dynamics of the Americas, to include colonization, slavery and the relatively recent integration/mixing of the races, it all makes sense. In the Americas (South and Central, Caribbean and North), over time, it has generally been those with white skin that are the more well-to-do financially, due in part to historic limitations put on the advancement of people of color during and since slavery (not being allowed to read, go to school, hold a job with good wages, allowed to advance in society, etc). Then, of course, there are institutional biases and long-standing family-taught descrimination that is prevalent in some societies (Colombian, Cuban, Dominican and Brazilian to name a few that I have had personal experiences with). In a "thing" I had going on with a Colombian girl here in the US, she told me how she had to explain to her mother that I wasn't "too" black. A fair skinned Dominicana whom I had been with on 4 separate occasions for the same price, once told me that she would have to postpone our session because she was going to be with an Italian man who was going to pay twice the going price for the same amount of time. Of course, any American knows the adage "Once you go black, you never go back, " which was popularized by the curiousity of white women since reconstruction and the later end of segregation when interracial relationships began to be more common.
No one can argue that the rumors/stereotypes do exist of the virility and potency of those with African ancestry. These are even bought into by the very existence, at high levels, of mongers who travel to places where interbreeding with those of African ancestry has created those magnificent asses and sensuality of the women that we love so much (hint: this didn't come from the Spanish).
Hughdad, I respect your comments and thank you again for the constructive dialogue. For anyone else who has commented constructively, thanks to you as well. However, anyone wishing to label me some sort of racist or being gullible, I get your point. Now, let it go. Let the thread get back to its purpose and if you have further comments, just PM me. That way, I can read it, you get your point across to me and others don't have to be bothered with the back and forth. I also won't have to waste time responding to bullshit and can get on with finishing my trip report for other dudes like me who like to fuck rather than engage in philosophical bullshit.
Keep your pimp hand STRONG!
