Would It Matter ?

It seems that some people get mad whenever they see an inter-racial couple.
But what are they really mad at?
Is it that "White (Asian, Hispanic, other) girls are taking all the good brotha's"?
Or is it only that all the good brotha's seem to settle for a less than attractive white girl?
If Drake went all Nick Cannon and dated an older Rosie O'Donnell - who would be mad at Rosie (besides her wife)?
But everyone would be mad at DeGrassi.

Brad could probably get away with dating Monique.
And many Black women could deal with Monique putting it on Brad.
But white women would be vexed. (And white men confused.)

But Let Flava Flav put his hands on Gossip Girls' Blake Lively and we'd have an Emmit Till style lynching.
Screech has the Afro, but what if he pulled Keri Hilson?
White guys could see the attraction, white women would be happy to let him go, brotha's would be a bit hostile and sista's would be confused.
Most brotha's can see what Ice-T sees in Coco.
Most Black women don't see the attraction.
But unless women are working with what Coco's got goin' on - how do they expect to distract a brotha from the bootie?
My question;
Is it really about race or is it more about seeing one person settling for less because the other person is from another race?
