Fear
14 April 06
It’s been said that fear is the ultimate aphrodisiac. The demand for stereotyped interracial pornography is rooted in fear—not of black men specifically, but of the loss of white male privilege in a world where women are rapidly gaining power. Unencumbered by social convention, reason, or even law, the “savage” retains a kind of primitive power over women that “civilized” man lost long ago.
Note, however, that while this primitive power is coercive it does not amount to rape. The white female is the savage’s accomplice; she’s enjoying herself a little too much. Her response to the savage’s advances only confirms civilized man’s worst fears about his own emasculation. This is why so much modern interracial pornography emphasizes cuckoldry (e.g., “fuck my slutty white wife,” or else “fuck my whorish white daughter”). For some it’s the ultimate turn-on.
