The Black Woman has a very complex identity that separates her from both women and black people
Black women have an intersectionality identity- this means that they have 2 identities that cross; being both black and a woman
they face racism from other races of any gender
they also face sexism from men of any race
Growing up, they are taught to be strong, independent, and self sufficient, (many of these traits make them seen as more masculine
From a young age, they already know how to basically be a wife and a mom. Which is a big burden for a young girl
This is a very different way of growing up compared to their male counterparts; who are taught to fend for themselves and be non-threatening as a black man
As the black woman grows up, she feels the distance and disparity from the black man, because they grew up in completely different ways.
The black woman feels like she is carrying the world on her shoulders, making the black man feel like a black woman is too much for them to handle; causing both of them to regularly date outside of their race.
