Yep, over at avoiceformen.com, those wonderfully enlightened non-racist, non-misogynistic men's rights activists/youtubers, Girlwriteswhat and johntheother had a discussion on how much worse it is for men in the black community due to the matriarchal structure of black families.
It doesn't help that it's two white people discussing this either....

..... Yes, they were serious. neutral
Personally, to me, this is worrisome. The level of racism and ignorance and sexism these two perpetuate (along with nearly everyone over at avoiceformen.com) is absolutely astounding. Not only does Girlwriteswhat and johntheother get majority positive comments and views on their channels, but many of the MRAs have the same exact perspectives.
However, I have watched many of these so-called "enlightening" videos by MRAs and I have noticed a tendency for them to be particularly hostile towards women of color, particularly, black women.
Many will speak about looking for foreign women to date who have not yet been "indoctrinated" with Western feminism. Which really means: Using their white male privilege to take advantage of minority women from developing countries with far less privilege and power.

The top comment under this video is: "i hate american women,i would rather go out with a nice asian girl than with a b***h like her."
Yay, racism/sexism! Yeah, Asian women! They're all submissive and s**t! Yeah! /sarcasm rolleyes
There is also this video posted by the man who runs avoiceformen.com, called "Kenyan Women Are Unspeakably Abusive"

After watching many excruciatingly painful videos from these men and having read the top comments, I've come to the recent conclusion that these MRAs are not only misogynists, but particularly hateful towards black women.
They truly are perfect examples of a powerful white supremist patriarchy still in-tact.
--So, opinions? Concerns? Thoughts?
--Is the stereotype/myth of the 'black matriarchy' still prevalent among white people today?
--Do you agree that there is bigotry against women of color, mainly black women, in the men's rights groups?
