Just like European men and east Asian women can't get enough of each other, and Gentile guys and Jewish chicks go gaga over one another (or Jewish guys and Gentile chicks), so do black men and white women. According to media, anyway. Though it's no big deal in most of the world (not more than other types of interracial relationships, anyway), there are still some parts — e.g. South Africa, parts of Europe and the USA (especially the south) — where black-white ethnic relations are troubled and this trope actually comes into play. In Real Life, black man/white woman couples are somewhat common and there are a variety of views on what this kind of relationship should or does entail. White man/black woman pairs don't get as much attention (positive or negative) perhaps because they are less common, at least in America, though the gap appears to be narrowing. South Africa and the USA have had a serious Double Standard when it comes to this gender divide, as a direct consequence of Apartheid and the USA's Jim Crow laws (and slavery before that): many white men had black slave mistresses, and this practice was generally accepted or at least tolerated. The reverse-gendered version, of a free woman loving a male slave, was seen as "corrupting" the white race and could result in a cruel and unusual murder for the (African) slave and the public shaming (and possible rape/death) of the free woman, albeit most of the time, the white woman may claim to have been raped by her lover in order to avoid the humiliation, or worse, the responsibility. Perhaps having accused him maliciously for a perceived slight or just plain hatred. Even in the absence of hatred, any white woman could simply wave hi to a black teenager and be accused by her fellow countrymen (And women) of being in a relationship with a him (Or god forbid, having a child with him) to destroy her reputation. What self respecting pure-blooded white woman would give them the time of day after all? As a result, the laws of the time deemed a black man and white woman engaging in consensual sex (or even sharing space) as equal to rape and led to the deaths of many innocent black men, and the character assassinations of innocent white women. When slavery gave way to Jim Crow and Apartheid, this bias remained - the chief difference being that before Apartheid and Jim Crow era, a white woman-black man couple would be lynched or slandered by the authorities, whereas during, they would instead be lynched/slandered by family/friends/neighbors whom the authorities couldn't be bothered to prosecute for murder. That’s assuming the man in question wasn’t already hung for, God forbid, being attracted to her. While less common and no longer illegal (Technically), hatred for these pairings is still Truth in Television. Due to the extensive history between blacks and whites described above, bias still exists toward black man & white women pairings. And people today have lost their lives or dignity over choosing someone who isn’t of their race. But given that any real-life example would be subjective and might even cause a flame war, all you need to know about this trope's impact in real life has been described above. Please note that just like this trope's white/Asian counterpart, not every black/white romance falls under this trope. If the lovers just happen to be interracial and nobody makes a big deal out of it, then it is simply a mundane relationship. Only when it is seen as a controversial mixed marriage and/or one of the lovers expresses an extra attraction to their partner's skin tone is the trope in effect. It's also worth noting that the affection isn't one-sided in the least. There are plenty of white women on the prowl, wondering if what they've heard is true. This trope was commonly nicknamed Jungle Fever, until Spike Lee made a film deconstructing the term. Contrast Like Goes with Like. The gender inverted version of this trope is Black Gal on White Guy Drama. Also, any discussion of this trope is likely to bring up Black Is Bigger in Bed. Also tends to be used in Dating What Daddy Hates. |

Othello: Italian Desdemona falls for the "moor" Othello. It has been argued that in Shakespeare's time "moor" didn't mean black necessarily, and through history he was often played as Arabic. The argument that Othello is Semitic rather than African is more political than textual, given that the villain Iago refers to him as "thick lips" and "a black ram", which aren't terribly ambiguous... | |

After becoming famous with the TV show Pawn Stars, Gold & Silver Pawn Shop owner Rick Harrison wrote his autobiography, My Life At The Gold And Silver Pawn Shop. The book is full of anecdotes about some of the customers who come into his shop to pawn valuables, including pimps who pawn their bling jewelry. Rick recounts how one black pimp came in with a group of white women in tow. The pimp explained to Rick that many of his black customers couldn't resist the "forbidden fruit" appeal of white women, so they would pay huge sums to make it with his white girls. | |

In Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., the very white and British Agent Simmons either drools over or flirts with the black men she encounters, much to the chagrin of Fitz, her lab partner who harbors a crush on her. While Simmons' thing for black guys is treated as a Running Gag, a few fans legitimately ship her with Tripp. | |

In Empire, this is a point of contention between Andre, who is married to a white woman, and his parents. At first it seems his mother is the only one against it and his father is okay with it. However later in the first season it's revealed that his father views Andre's wife Rhonda as a spoiled rich girl and refuses to give the company to him because he is married to a white woman (that and his untreated bipolar disorder). | |

Yet another of Sidney Poitier's movies, To Sir, with Love, has a biracial student who hates his black father for marrying his white mother, as he considers it the worst thing he could have done to her (The town is shown to be pretty racist, to the point where the class of white students Poitier's character teaches don't want to personally enter the house to deliver a memorial wreath when the mother dies, since a white person going into a black man's house would create immense gossip.). Poitier himself seems to have feelings for a fellow (white) teacher, but the racial aspect of their relationship is downplayed (an inversion of Relationship Upgrade, as in Real Life, they soon began dating and eventually married). Subverted with Pamela Dare's attempt to win his affections, as he has no romantic feelings for her but instead cares for her as a friend and student. | |

In White Chicks, the main characters are black men disguised as white chicks, and one of them is romantically pursued by another black man. When he finds out the truth, he rants about how he was deceived into dating someone who isn't white, apparently not even caring that he was attracted to another man. Unrelated, but one of the characters actually yells, "Where da white women at?" at one point in the film. Terry Crews's character is actually attracted to one of them because, as he described "her", it's a "white woman with a black woman's ass." |

Dance Flick parodies Save the Last Dance, including the interracial romance subplot. But, it's also deconstructed, and the movie declares this a Discredited Trope. The female lead, Megan White, at one point, believes her black boyfriend Thomas is cheating on her. Thomas's stereotypically-ghetto sister says that she isn't surprised because white women are out of style with Black men these days and other ethnicities such as Hispanic, Asian, and Arabian women, have appeared as competition. | |

In fact, Hancock's amnesia is a result of being assaulted by bigots because he was with a white woman in pre-Civil Rights era Florida.

Played with in Community in the episode "Early 21st Century Romanticism" where Dirty Old Man (but very white) Leonerd uses the trope almost word for word: Averted in season 4 with Troy and Britta. Although there has been a few subtle jokes about their race, the focus has been more on their actual personalities than race. |

All My Children's Rich Bitch Liza Colby falsely accuses Jesse of raping her after he confronts her over her cruelty to his best friend Jenny, using this stereotype to garner sympathy. Jesse and Jenny actually played out a platonic version of this, even once being ranked as one of "The Greatest Romances That Never Were." It's been speculated that the racial difference and each being part of their own Super Couple are the only things that kept the writers from making their relationship romantic. Jesse and Rebecca, the woman he married while presumed dead and on the run. Subverted with Noah and Julia, who was Mexican. |

"O", the 2001 Setting Update of William Shakespeare's Othello, stars Mekhi Pfifer and Julia Stiles, who was also in Save the Last Dance. The fact that he ends up raping her would probably push it into Unfortunate Implications territory if it wasn't true to the original Shakespeare and for reasons mostly unrelated to race. | |

The Merchant of Venice has two examples: One of Portia's wealthy suitors is the Prince of Morocco, who begs her to "mislike me not for my complexion." When he loses the Engagement Challenge, she is quite glad: "Let all of his complexion choose me so." Later on, Lorenzo mentions that Launcelot had a fling with a black moor and that she is now "with child." It's never mentioned again, but it is used as a setup for an Incredibly Lame Pun on "moor" and "more." |

Tongues Untied offers a gay, gender-flipped example. It is an impressionistic documentary about the black gay experience in America and how black gay men are marginalized both by race and gender. Director/narrator Marlon Riggs speaks about how he escaped from Georgia to the gay Mecca of San Francisco, and for a time buried his feelings about the invisibility of the black gay community and simply enjoyed sex with white boys. ("I was immersed in vanilla.") | |

Cracked discusses this trope in #5 of this article. It mostly talks about how movies rarely portray this trope when the movie isn't all about race. | |

Power Rangers has touched this trope a few times, though the interracial aspect was never brought up. Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue has Green Ranger Joel constantly jockeying for the affections of Ms. Fairweather. It was either rebuffed or ignored until the season finale. By the crossover with Power Rangers Time Force, the two are Happily Married. Power Rangers S.P.D. has Red Ranger Jack meeting and starting a relationship with a volunteer caregiver and store owner, which ultimately leads to him retiring from SPD in the season finale. In Power Rangers: Dino Thunder, the Black and Nerdy Blue Ranger, Ethan, falls for a girl at a sci-fi convention who reappears in the finale as his prom date. Before this, he had briefly dated snobby school reporter Cassidy. Power Rangers Ninja Steel inverts it with Calvin and Hayley, who have been together for at least a year before we meet them. |

An episode of Promised Land (1996) had a white girl and black boy pretending to be a couple to gauge people's reactions. It was for a class project and both were reluctant to participate, due to mutual dislike unrelated to race. Responses from the public ranged from matter-of-fact to disapproval to outright rage from people of both races. Despite this, the two came to genuinely like each other, but the white girl nixes the relationship before it can even begin, fearing the disapproval of her family. | |

Mallory on Archer loves black men. Such as when she pulls strings to get Conway Stern into ISIS ("He just appeared... like a foundling, carved out of onyx") and routs any attempt to get a background check pulled on him, or when she gets a chance to "fact check" a Hollywood script and writes herself in as a sexy fifty-something in love with a handsome black agent. Surprising (or not), because Mallory is also very racist. | |

In The Poisonwood Bible, Leah (a white girl who came to the Congo with her missionary family) ends up marrying Anatole (a black citizen of the Congo). There are a lot of awkward moments, to say the least, over Leah's skin color, as she is the minority in the country where she lives, and because her race defines her as a citizen of an imperialist country. | |

In The Boondocks there seems to be a running gag that a lot of black men, especially (but not limited to) those with money or power, really want to score with white women. Most notably, there's Tom and Sarah DuBois' marriage. Robert has been seen dating both black and white women, although the most notable consistency is his dates being significantly younger than him. Uncle Ruckus reveres all white people, which of course includes preferring white women. It's the main reason he tolerates the DuBoises. Rollo Goodlove is seen flirting with Ann Coulter (the two were pretending to be enemies earlier). In "A Date With The Booty Warrior", a prison gang of Scary Black Men are a little tired of anally raping the other inmates, so they demand that women (white ones especially) should be imported into the jail. |

In Far from Heaven, a lonely woman falls in love with her African-American gardener, sparking immense gossip when the two are seen together—her husband hypocritically blasts her for the scandal she's brought on their family, conveniently overlooking his repressed homosexuality (the movie is set in the 1950s, when both things would have been extremely controversial). The fling is over before it can even begin, thanks to both of them being aware of the disastrous ramifications. | |

An episode of Law & Order featured a white girl killing her black boyfriend, and claimed he tried to rape her when she was arrested. It later came out that her father was a racist, and had previously broken her arm for going out with a black guy in high school. What ultimately made her snap was that her beau, who was tired of keeping their relationship a secret, threatened to break things off with her if she didn't come out about it. Also in the Law & Order: UK episode based on it, "Masquerade." Though this time, the boy was Pakistani and threatening to tell her parents about them himself, leading her to panic and kill him. In the episode "Blue Bamboo", detectives find that the killer of a Japanese businessman is a white actress/singer who once worked at one of his Tokyo nightclubs. Her defense is that he was incredibly abusive to her during this time—to the point of practically holding her prisoner—and that she killed him in self-defense. During her psychiatric evaluation, she practically rants about how all Japanese men are obsessed with her and it's implied that Japanese men see white women as a status symbol. It's never clear if she was lying, but when she's acquitted, Jack claims that her story would never have worked had the man been white as well. |

The 1967 film Guess Who's Coming to Dinner starring Katharine Hepburn and Sidney Poitier, about a young white woman surprising her family and friends by becoming engaged to a black man. The movie was one of the first films to touch on the subject of interracial marriage seriously. All anti-interracial marriage laws were deemed unconstitutional only six months to the day that this movie came out. In a surprise bit of Values Dissonance, there's another reason to object to the marriage: Poitier's character is at least fifteen years older than Hepburn's daughter, plus they've only met several weeks earlier. The writers intentionally made Poitier's character as perfect as possible so that there would be no reason for anyone to object to the marriage other than the racial difference, as well as the other two mentioned. The 2005 remake Guess Who gender- and race-flipped this, being about an African-American woman who brings her white fiancé to meet her parents. |

The West Wing plays hardball with this trope, with the relationship between Charlie, the president's aide, and Zoey, the president's daughter, but puts a twist on it. President Bartlett is genuinely unhappy that his daughter is dating a black man, but not because he dislikes the idea itself. He just knows full well that there will be plenty of others in the country who will absolutely hate the idea, and he's worried about the couple's safety. He's completely right. The relationship gets two people shot by white supremacists. | |

Saturday Night Live: Parodied in the skit "Meet Your Second Wife", in which the three male contestants are introduced to the girls who will become their second wives in a few years, as well as how this will happen—divorce, widowed. When they get to the third contestant, a black man, he fervently prays that the woman not be white and is very dismayed that she is, cringing at the epic Death Glare his current wife is giving him. One sketch in the episode hosted by Joe Pesci centers around the fictional "Bensonhurst Dating Game" show where a young Italian-American woman must choose from three mystery contestants. Two of them are stereotypical Italian-Americans (Adam Sandler and Dana Carvey) while the other is an African-American (Chris Rock) who has to deal with hostility from the host. The woman winds up choosing Rock's character and the host reluctantly allows it, while also repeatedly telling viewers the address of the restaurant they will be dining at. |

Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman. Most of the townspeople are completely convinced that the Native American men have this attitude: When a white woman is rescued after an Army raid on a Native American camp, people speculate that she was probably raped by them, then are disgusted when they learn that she willingly married one of them—"A decent white woman would have killed herself before she lay down with a redman." When Dr. Mike herself is kidnapped by renegade dog soldiers, there is the same speculation and this does in fact nearly happen several times before Sully manages to rescue her. White Dorothy strikes up a friendship with Native American Cloud Dancing when she decides to write a book about him, much to the disapproval of the townspeople (several of whom make very nasty comments insinuating that the relationship is sexual) and of his fellow tribesmen. There's also the brief, mild flirtation between Colleen and one of the Chinese railroad workers. The town's lone black male, Robert E., was surprisingly exempt from this, probably because he was Happily Married to the lone black female, Grace. |

This is played for laughs in Undercover Brother. Sistah Girl informs the team that the Undercover Brother has slept with Penelope Snow, AKA White She-Devil, aka Black Man's Kryptonite. Conspiracy Brother asks "Was it everything I dreamed of?" and "She had pink nipples, didn't she?" and Da Chief asks "Carpet match the drapes?" However, having sex with him eventually turns her over to their side since she rather enjoyed the encounter. Lance (the only white guy there) was doing it, too. | |

Deliberately averted in Hitch. Originally, Cameron Diaz was supposed to play Hitch's love interest. However, when Will Smith got the role, they decided that this trope might come out to play. However, they also didn't want to cast a black actress for fear that the movie would be interpreted as saying that romantic pairings need to be intra-ethnic or that people would assume that it was a black movie. They finally decided on Cuban-American Eva Mendes (who has been cast because of this racial gray-area more than once.) | |

Jessica Jones and Luke Cage have gotten guff several times over being a biracial couple. The Pulse: During the Red Skies Crossover with Secret War, a black nurse complains to Jones about the latter's relationship with Cage, suggesting she's seduced him away from black women as if they have a greater right to him. Cage himself brings up that they're probably going to continue to catch crap over it while asking Jessica to marry him following the birth of their daughter. Shadowland: Cage gets accused of selling out, partly over his marriage to Jessica, by the new Power Man, Victor Alvarez. Considering Luke's understandably volcanic temper, it is probably quite fortunate for Victor that a) he didn't get to finish his sentence, b) walked it back and apologised immediately. |

In Just Mercy, Jamie Foxx plays Johnny D., a black man from Alabama, who is accused of murdering a white woman. The evidence against him is transparently flimsy, and it quickly becomes clear that the sheriff really just wants to punish him for an earlier affair he had with a different white woman. The movie is based on a true story from 1989. Comes up again with Johnny D.'s legal defense team, headed by Bryan Stevenson (Michael B. Jordan) and Eva Ansley (Brie Larson). Eva gets a lot of threatening letters from racist townsfolk, many of which assume she's cheating on her husband with Bryan. There's never really any hint of any romantic or sexual interest between them, though, and Bryan even comes across as a Chaste Hero. The Real Life Bryan Stevenson remains unmarried. |

Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood: Parodied several times. One of the characters appears to be making a play at an attractive black woman, who seems receptive to his advances. However, it turns out he's actually talking to a white woman behind her, who is... rather unattractive. He defends himself to his friend by implying that it's revenge on white people for centuries of slavery and injustice. And then, during the climax of the film, various characters are dodging bullets during a drive-by shooting and one of the protagonists notices that a black woman is directly in the line of fire. He jumps, apparently in an effort to save her - but then we see that he actually jumped to save a blonde white woman who showed up out of nowhere for no other reason than Rule of Funny. He shoves the white girl to the ground, saving her from being shot, after which she gratefully calls him her "chocolate warrior." |

Dr. Elizabeth Corday and Dr. Peter Benton on ER, until the actor playing Benton got upset with the situation and the producers broke them up and set him up with a new, black character. Said character, Dr. Cleo Finch, was herself the result of such a union. And so was Kem Likasu (Carter's wife). Subverted with Jing-Mei Chen (she's Chinese) and the father of her baby, and later, Dr. Pratt. In the middle of a Christmas episode, Kerry excitedly shrieks "Mlungisi!" and throws herself into the arms of a handsome African man, kissing him passionately, much to everyone's astonishment (though this is more because her behavior is in stark contrast to the uptight personality she's displayed thus far rather than the racial difference). She later plays out a same-sex version of this—her second girlfriend and eventual wife is Hispanic and the woman she moves to Miami with when she decides to resign from the hospital is African-American. |

Purposefully averted in The Deal, where the studio vetoes love scenes between the characters played by Fiona and Bobby because it still makes some people in the audience uncomfortable. | |

In The 4400, Richard Tyler was abducted from 1951 during the Korean War, where his secret relationship with a white woman had gotten him beaten up by his fellow officers. In the present, his relationship with fellow abductee Lily, the Identical Granddaughter of that woman, is seen as mundane... well, apart from their superpowered Fetus Terrible. | |

Jackie Brown: Ordell and Melanie. Ordell even admits that this is her main appeal despite being a pain in the ass. Jackie Brown herself and Max also express romantic interest in each other (though nothing actually happens). |

Family Guy. Chris' talking pimple forces him to rub grease on himself to make more pimples. One of them says "Where the white heads at?" In "Brian the Bachelor", Cleveland goes on the prowl at a local bar. He asks a potential mate "Hey baby, how'd you like to go black and then make the difficult decision on whether to go back? " she replies "I already went Burnt Sienna and never went back." The Burnt Sienna crayon she is dating starts to threaten Cleveland. Peter worries that Jerome will steal Lois from him in "Jerome is the New Black", as they used to date. Jerome says he would never do such a thing but admits that he did have lots of sex with Meg. Peter is not concerned about that. Invoked in "Untitled Griffin Family History", when Peter says "Of course, ordinarily black guys aren't attracted to white women, but she was something different." Then played straight. |

Forrest Whitaker in The Crying Game with Miranda Richardson's character Jude. Then there's his erstwhile lover Dil, who's more...unclear (she was portrayed by the biracial Jaye Davidson), but in her case, the color of her skin is only the tip of the iceberg. | |

Intentionally averted by Little Richard, who played up the more feminine aspects of his personality to seem less threatening to white audiences of the 1950s/60s who were wary of this trope. In his own words, "I wore the make-up so that white men wouldn't think I was after the white girls." | |

Shadowland: Cage gets accused of selling out, partly over his marriage to Jessica, by the new Power Man, Victor Alvarez. Considering Luke's understandably volcanic temper, it is probably quite fortunate for Victor that a) he didn't get to finish his sentence, b) walked it back and apologised immediately. | |

Save the Last Dance is about a young white girl moving to the inner city and falling in love with a black youth with a bright future. A black female character criticizes her for this and says she hates how white girls always snatch up the good black men, leaving black girls with the black men that are criminals and gang members. | |

Sherlock Holmes: In "The Adventure of the Yellow Face", it is revealed that Effie Munro, the wife of Holmes' client Grant, was previously married to a black man named John Hebron, and had a child with him. She fears the negative consequences, both from her husband and society as a whole, if the child is discovered and word gets out, but fortunately her husband proves very open minded about it and assures her they will find a way to make it work. | |

In the Key & Peele skit about Othello, Lashawnio and Martinzion (played by the Key and Peele) are initially excited by the fact that Othello is married to a white woman and no one can do anything about it. Unfortunately, when they see the rest of the play and discover what ultimately happens to Othello, they are not very happy. | |

The Sopranos: During Season 3, Meadow (Italian-American) starts dating a half-black half-Jewish boy named Noah whom see meets at college. Both her parents are heavily against it, Tony especially, and he makes his disapproval very clear to Noah when he first meets him. They eventually break up offscreen, and it's strongly implied that Tony's hostility towards their interracial relationship was a key factor (he doesn't ever oppose any of other Meadow's partners, the rest of whom are Italian-American). | |

"KKK Bitch" from Body Count by Ice-T's band Body Count. Also, on the album, a skit before the song states that "the real issue isn't the lyrics on the record, but the risk of the white kid identifying with a black artist, or a white girl, falling in love with a black man." Also from the same album, "Momma's Gotta Die Tonight", where the protagonist kills his racist mother after she negatively reacts to his white girlfriend. |
