Nigger Porn

Interracial pornography, and Black porn for that matter, is fundamentally racist and no one is addressing it, complaining about it, or even acknowledging it. It’s nigger porn, right off the plantation: big, Black bucks who can’t control their lust for the beautiful white women. Interracial porn throws the N word around like it’s rice at a wedding and white men are masturbating to it as if it’s an aphrodisiac. Black men, farmed from the underprivileged ghettos where Black porn stars are bred, are effectively emasculated in white male society so they actually think it’s a sign of power and status to be considered some sort of savage beast who can’t control his sexual desires for the elusive and desirable white woman. Give him money to fuck, make sure there are no positive images of Black manhood in the media, and there you have the makings of the scores of Black men willing to degrade themselves and the entire African American community perpetuating stereotypes that are readily embraced by the actors and the consumers of this genre.

Black porn is even more offensive. Black women are always Ghetto Freaks, Ghetto Whores, or Ghetto Booty Bitches. We are nothing more than our big round asses bent over with our fake blonde extensions getting the most mundane and vanilla sex from Ghetto Dogs, Ghetto Pimps, and Ghetto Playaz (always with a z). If the only white porn available was Trailer Park Tarts or some offensive variation, the entire porn industry would come to a screeching halt with the outrage of people demanding variety. Mainstream black people, the vast majority of Black people, those of us who have no affiliation whatsoever with the ghetto, are so terrified we are going to be associated with the base element perpetuated in porn, we stay silent, never expecting or demanding anything more than the vile and racist way we are depicted in the adult industry, never really having an outlet for our sexuality. White people are left to believe that Black people are truly nothing more than the one-dimensional caricatures seen in porn.

If I, as a Black woman, want to see images of myself that associated with “da hood” I have no choice but to turn to interracial porn. God forbid I am not attracted to white men or don’t find them sexually arousing (I know it’s impossible to believe that my preference could actually be Black men) I have NO outlet. Even this new range of interracial porn that features Black women and white men is going the same route as standard nigger porn. Ghetto Gaggers and the like sell white men on the notion that Black women are nothing more than barely literate welfare queens that can be thrown a couple of dollars and who will be willing to do anything in front of the camera. Of course Don Imus felt free to call the Rutger’s basketball team Nappy Headed Ho’s because I’m sure he’s jerked off to dozens of porno’s of almost the exact same name. And the nation, meaning white men, are outraged and offended that he got fired because they believe Black women are nothing more than nappy headed ho’s. How could we be offended if what he said was accurate?

Any discussion of racism in porn is halted because white people say, “I’m not racist,” “Color doesn’t matter,” and, “You’re playing the race card,” and that is supposed to be the end of the subject, nothing further. Color matters in everything, especially porn. You cannot claim that color doesn’t matter when the entire reason white men think it’s so “taboo” and dirty for their white PTA wives to have sex with Black men is because they associate the color of Black skin as being inferior. The reason why you don’t see an abundance of porn where white women are having sex with Asian or Latino men and having it be considered taboo is because they aren’t seen as the same sort of sexual savages as Black men. And while there are many cultural and social differences between the races, Black men are not on a lower rung of the evolutionary ladder thereby sex with them to be considered a fetish. Having sex with a child is taboo, having sex with an animal is taboo. Having sex with a dead body is very, very taboo. Having sex with a Black man is only taboo if you think he’s inherently beneath you and thus you are performing some wildly heathen act. Black women are not inherently sassy, dominating, or sexual. What we are is conditioned to believe that we have to capitalize off our sexuality in order to be seen as desirable as white women.


My work in the adult industry as a writer has been extremely frustrating because I have to battle people who refuse to accept that there is a market for Black erotica outside of the ghetto. White publishers tell me that I don’t know what Black consumers want. Read that again. White publishers tell me, a Black woman, that they know better what the Black buying public wants. Black publishers are either terrified to have anything to do with erotica because they don’t want to be seen as one of the low class ghetto freaks or they have been so mis and undereducated they are intellectually disabled when it comes to identifying quality work. When I have the nerve to speak out to suggest that white men who capitalize off of our continued degradation drive the silence that surrounds the nigger porn industry, I’m inevitably met with the same response, “Well, Black producers are making it too.” That’s supposed to mean it has validation. As long as there is no variety in Black and interracial porn, as long as the only images of black people are of us being driven by our lust for white flesh and green backs, the Black and interracial adult industry is diseased and needs to be healed like the racist sore that it is. White men make and perpetuate the images of Black sexuality that fit their unhealthy perceptions of us and those who sign on to their program are nothing more than puppets for their sick agenda.

Well written and since I've seen you on XTube a couple of times I assume this is in response to the dearth of representation in porn as a whole, and let me tell it doesn't get much better on the gay side of the nigger porn fence either.

I pretty much agree with everything you wrote. What do you know about any past/present/future attempts at organizing actors in the adult film industry? Has there ever been an attempt to form an Adult Screen Actors Guild? Of course, organizing against racism would have to take place alongside & within something like this, but some kind of organization may help with pay, safety (incl HIV), etc.

As a lover of gay porn myself, I have to mute every single video. It turns my stomach to hear the N word but I adore seeing two black men together. I'm not into guys with those little silky head wraps (do I lose blackness points for not knowing what they are called?) and I am not turned on by thugs. Where's the black gay porn with just two regular men fucking like animals without the N word?

silky head wraps = "du-rags."

I agree with you 100% and I am a white guy! I have absolutely no idea why this particular "sub-genre" has become so popular in the last maybe 5 years or so. Lets face it people watch porn, myself included, but even in porn there has to be some standards. Just think about what this sort of thing says about us as a society? Its ok to demean an entire group of people and then play out some twisted "plantation" fantasy on top of it? Very strange...hopefully things will change soon and for the best.

I think I've lost my appetite. This poor deluded creature thinks he's exacting revenge for slavery by fucking white women and calling himself a nigger. The white men whose wife he's fucking are more educated, have better employment, they are conspiring to deny Black men equal opportunity in health care, the judicial system, banking and in every arena of life every day outside the bedroom and yet he thinks he is getting revenge for slavery. I feel sick to my stomach.

Reginald Harris said...

It is a true shame and VERY sad that someone would still think that a black man 'on top' equals some kind of 'revenge' for slavery. He's obviously doesn't realize or never heard of the whole notion of black man as 'dangerous black buck' lusting after white flesh which was used as an excuse to justify lynching.

Personally I'm very tired of the whole 'thug' thing, and will be glad when it's over. To borrow a phrase from Carol "Brown Sugar" Taylor, we need to 'eroticize intelligence.'

And if you ever find that 'black gay porn with just two regular men fucking like animals' give me a call!:)

There was "black gay porn with just two regular men fucking like animals"...in the BFP Duo Series, just to name one of the films, years ago....

Hello, I just passed by this blog and noticed that you were talking about the rise of interracial porn and the craze of white men wanting to see their wife/girlfriend be with black men. I admit to having a similar fetish to these white guys you've talked to so I figured I'd share my thoughts as well with you. I often have fantasies of sharing or seeing my wife with black men. She's an attractive woman in her early-mid 30s with lovely brown hair and eyes with soft pale skin. Our sex life is great too. However, unlike, many of these men into this sort of thing, I admit that this desire of mine stems from racism. I don't believe in this typical White American "I'm not a racist" Kramer/Imus cop out bullshit. Hopefully you'll listen to what I say despite me being racist. At least I can admit it to myself unlike many of these white guys in on White America's dirty little secret of white wife-Mandingo fantasies.

I am a racist and I feel racist tension towards black men. I know that despite black males being over-represented in violent crime statistics, I know that not all black men are thugs. I'm not the type of racist that thinks that every black man comes straight out of a BET gangster rap video. It's the thugs of the group that bring up the statistics and there are a lot of black men who abide by the law. I also know that the average Black male penis size is bigger than the average white male penis size of 5-6" but I'm well aware that the average Black man does not fit the image of the Mandingo that we hold. As you said, there are a lot of black men who feel insecure about having a perfectly functional average-sized penis or not living up to the Mandingo standards that they assume is expected of them.

As such, I'm fully conscious of what is reality and I have no problems with being friends with blacks even. But I still have an image in my mind of those classy black men, if they are attractive, ravishing my wife like a virile Mandingo. However I have no interest in seeing my wife with a thug, I fantasize about good-looking, black gentleman Mandingo having sex with her. I'd want my wife to be with men, that have that respectful black gentleman vibe, the type that calls a lady Ms. or ma'am and of course I'd want them to be free of disease. About 1-3 men would be ideal, organizing more would take a lot more work ensuring things go smoothly but it's not like I don't get off thinking about her being in a 10-man gang-bang. I'm just being more realistic.

I don't feel racist towards black women in general and I don't have fetishist fantasies about black women like many of these white men that you speak of. When I had sex with a mulatta woman in my earlier years, I didn't get off on any notions of a master/slave dynamic or see her as some ghetto mama or anything like that. It was just sex with a pretty young woman to me, even if she had very noticeable differences from the white women I had sex with. But I find it hot to think about attractive white women, particularly my wife, with black gentlemen.

It's strange because I would never approve of my son and daughter, whom are still very young, marrying Blacks in the future. I have no problems with them being involved in inter-racial dating in the future since we're only young once in our lives and both my wife and I have dated and had sex with blacks in our college years. But marriage is out of the question. Inter-racial marriage is still a very big taboo in America socially. White America pretends that it's not racist but it still is and I am apart of that. However, unlike most of White America, I'm not afraid to admit to myself that I'm racist. But even though I'd never accept Blacks into my family tree, it makes me really aroused to think about my wife with black men.

When my wife and I were still unmarried and dating, she knew that I held some racist beliefs and admitted to me about how she's had sex with a number of Black guys in her earlier years in college before we dated. She asked if I was bothered by that since many white guys have hang-ups about this. I told her that I was completely fine with that past of hers and I was. In fact I was surprised that I was not only ok with it but liked it and had my heart beat very quickly. I just couldn't bare to tell her that it turned me on and made me curious about the details and how it would look like. I was afraid and I still am, that she'd think I was a weirdo or gay for getting off on her sexual past with black guys.

I'm not homosexual and I love my wife and enjoy our sex life but I am of the belief that people are not 100% heterosexual 0% homosexual. I don't have an interest in having sexual relations with a black guy as I do with my wife or other attractive women nor do I get turned on by seeing images of black men alone or black-on-black sex. It's only when a "black stud" is with a white woman that I get arroused. There's probably some latent homosexuality there at play, like I said, I don't think anyone is 100% heterosexual. But I only get aroused at the image of the "black stud" being sexually involved with a white woman.

I don't have any interest in the "cuck" subculture, basically the types of white men who want to be "sissy boys", be totally submissive to blacks, "clean up" after sex and be completely chaste while their wife has extramarital affairs with Blacks. I just want to see my wife get a good hot fuck by black men. My fantasy is messed up by mainstream standards, even if many white men secretly hold it. But I find the submissive "cucks" who talk about black superiority, servititude to blacks as payment for slavery, etc. in this subculture to be truly fucked up. I also have a fantasy of having a threesome with my wife and another woman, which is standard for a lot of men.

So I'm not into the submissiveness crap. I do admit that the idea of my wife being receiving a black man's semen into her vagina and being "black bred" really turns me on. However, that is not something I'd ever consider in reality and I find these fantasies of white men who want to raise the black babies of the wife as really stupid. The idea itself of an inter-racial pregnancy for my wife turns me on but not the whole giving birth and taking care of the child thing. I'm perverted but not into this submission and humiliation crap so I wouldn't ever consider such a thing in reality. I just want to see my wife fucked by black men.

It's just the atmosphere of the scene of interracial sex that gears my sympathetic nervous system to raise my pulse, increase my presperation, etc. It's just simply a fantasy of degradation for me rather than humilation. Knowing about my wife's past exploits with black partners has made me see her in an aura of sexual uninhibitedness. I love her as my Madonna: a sweet wife, my best friend and mother of our children. I love her and love making love to her. But I love her as my Whore too and while our sex life is great, I fantasize about seeing the full extent of her as an uninhibited sex kitten by being with a black guy.

The fantasy revolves around the puritan idea that women aren't supposed to be interested in sex, which of course is far from the truth with my wife. It stems from this whole patriarchal idea of the woman being pure and chaste for her husband. But when a man shares his wife with another man and she enjoys herself, that purity is stained and the patriarchal hierachy is brought down. And in the idea is: What better way to stain the white wife's purity and turn her into a deviant sexually deviant slut that gives into carnal pleasure than to share her with a black man, the ultimate symbol of raw, uncivilized, untamed animalism. Once she goes Black and she allows herself to get defiled with savage black beasts and enjoys it, she becomes an sexually uninhibited, indiscriminate, tainted, morally corrupt Whore.

The fantasy just spews of racism and patriarchy. Thinking of and seeing the mother of my children, the Madonna, as an uninhibited sex demon driven by carnal lust drives me crazy with lust and the effect is pronounced with the ultimate degradation of going Black. That's how I feel and even when I'm aware that not all Black men are wild beasts and many of them are up-standing human beings, the fantasy turns me on and I can't deny the latent racism behind it.

The issue though is that I'm hesitant about making fantasy into reality because I have a comfortable marriage with my wife, she means the world to me and I love our children. It's one thing for her to have been with black guys in the past, white men who get insecure over such things are losers who think they can't measure up to their partner's past black lovers. But extra-marital affairs, whether inter-racial or not, could lead to many unsavory consequences. I'd be afraid of the relationship going downhill when things are going well now and I'd be afraid of the social backlash that the family could potentially face within both our families and also among friends and the occupational realm. Our respective employers would probably think of us as weirdos if we led such a lifestyle and they knew about it. I want to bring black men into our bedroom to add more variety to our sex life but we'd have to make sure that the black gentlemen are cooperative enough to be classy about it and not blow our cover to family and the outside world.
