Originally posted by evenodds I have several white male friends who date black women, about the same proportion of black male friends who date white women. So, it probably is perception.

I don't think your antecdotal evidence is in line with the true percentage. I will research it and see if I can find a break down by male/female ratios.
I rarely see white women with asian males and rarely see white males with black women.
White women with black men is pretty commonplace, and I believe is far more common than white men with black women.

When we have polled the FB in the past, there is a higher proportion of interracial dating than you might suspect.

I never commented on how prevalent interracial couples are. Just how you rarely see white men with black women, but quite frequently see white women with black men.
Like I said, I will do some research and see if anyone has tried to study the issue empirically. Most studies I have seen only look at total numbers of couples without doing a break down of the race of each gender in the couple. I'll get back to you with the results.
