White Baby Mommas and Black Mothers

I love how in America when a white woman is alone raising a baby everyone goes "Awww her boyfriend must've left her," but if it's a black woman everyone says "She was a whore. Well, now she's a baby momma!"

I just find this really funny because a 2005 survey found that 65% of white women between the ages of 18-35 were in a sexual relationship but not married. Only 45% of black women between those ages were in a sexual relationship and not married.

Interestingly, the average age for a white woman to marry was 27 while for a black woman it was 22. Meanwhile, the average age at which a white woman had a baby was 24 while for a black woman it was 23. Kinda interesting that the average white woman has a baby BEFORE marriage while the average black woman has one AFTER marriage.

From a more personal perspective, my apartment building has two young mothers. Except one is a baby momma. Alicia, a young black woman with a three-year-old son is happily married. Shelby, a twenty-five year old white baby momma, became a baby momma after sleeping with a random guy at a party.

But of course, according to most white people, Shelby is a poor innocent white woman while Alicia's a slut that spread her legs for everyone.
