Black American man vs. West Indian man

Black American:

- more apt to say "I'm Sorrys"
- chasing after the American dream

- gadget oriented
- more outwardly emotional
- more open to dating interracially
- more about lovemaking, less about sex
- feels the need to conform to white America in order to succeed


West Indian (raised/living in the Caribbean):

- more exposed to world cultures
- more sure of himself

- admittedly sexist

- less likely to say an "I'm sorry"
- less likely to date interracially
- more hands on in areas like growing plants/foods
- said to be more philandering when it comes to women
- more about sex, less about love making
- more proud of himself, and less concerned with society
- extremely focused on education

Just my thoughts, I'll more as they come to me..

*sidenote* Damn, that brotha on the right is FINE!
