I'm Indian. I've never been with a black girl so I can't say anything regarding that, however, I've dated plenty of white girls and a lot of them like my skin colour because they say I look tanned.
Bro you've gotta remember that white girls spend a lot of time on sunbeds or wherever TRYING to get a tan, so if someone already has something that they themselves want so badly, they'll find it attractive. Just use your colour to your advantage

I am not into Black girls in most cases either. Has nothing to do with stereotypes but I was around so many through my high school years (high school was over 90 percent black) and I just lost any attraction I had for them. Of course by Black I mean Black American. A lot of Black Latinas like Dania Ramirez and Rosario Dawson are beauties and I would hook up with them on the drop of a dime, it has nothing to do with Black features but just my experience overall with Black American girls. Also I notice that while White girls and other races of girls don't care if you aren't into them, a lot of Black girls I have met in real life get defensive about it or push you into trying to like them ("well what if she is light skinned?"). Despite all that I would still take a Black girl over a ginger or a British girl but ya, they aren't my preference.
Going back to topic now. I posted this thread because apparently the people that have the beautiful Indian and Middle Eastern skin color struggle in most of Europe with women simply because of their appearance and this comes off as a bit discouraging to me. See, I want to have success with women from countries like Spain, Sweden, and Russia but then get so discouraged when I read that women steer clear of men who have a Middle Eastern or Indian like appearance. Yet those same women would hook up with a Black man because it is "progressive". SMH.
In the USA I have found that being Indian has its advantages. There are no taboos for a girl who wants to date Indian men, no one would really bother her for it. Like where I live in the US, I can say that if all else was equal (appearance and status), a Middle Eastern or Indian guy (especially the lighter skin variety) would do better with women than a Black or even a Latino guy in some cases. Asian men do really well down south too because there are not many negative stereotypes people are aware of about them and people see them as exotic.
I have met so many White girls who are open to dating Koreans, Japanese, Indians and Arabs but won't hook up with a man who is Black. Yet I hear it is the opposite in California.
