    The "big black cock" stereotype is inherently racist and reactionary. It stems from a desire to view Black men as inhuman or barbaric. Most fetishes are fine, but there is a real problem in viewing Black men as "superior" (read: can please your white woman better). It stokes white supremacy constantly, by implying that "black people are here to take your women". We need to start treating Black people in porn with more respect. We care about Black lives, not what is in betwen someone's legs.

    Finally, if all of that wasn't enough, I'll just leave a link here to a gay porn studio that thought "Black Cocks Matter" was an acceptable title for a porno.

      Ah I see, I had entirely missed the dogwhistle on that one. I understand how the stereotype is detrimental, but I just absorbed the meme on the level of "small woman gets gangbanged". Thanks for the reading!

        The dogwhistle works more like an airhorn to white guys like myself. I stopped watching this racist shit after I started noticing the effects it had on me.
