The Boondocks by Aaron McGruder for July 14, 2022
Transcript:
Tom: You're mad that I've never dated a black woman?! Sarah: That's right! People like you give interracial couples a bad name!! You're the reason why black women give me evil looks! You dated me only because I was white. I'm not a person to you - I'm an arm trophy. I'm your perfect little white barbie doll, the epitome of a European standard of beauty that keeps women of color shackled with low self-esteem and you call yourself an activist?!! Tom: But you know I really love you for your modesty, my "perfect epitome of European beauty..." Sarah: Ok, ok, that sounded really conceited and it didn't come out right, but you know what I'm trying to say!

I’m starting to think Tom and Sarah secretly hate each other’s guts.

In the second panel, Sarah makes quite a bit of sense. But Tom hasn’t yet learned that you can’t tell a woman of ANY COLOR everything! Because women on average think very differently than men!

How do you tell the difference between somebody loving you and them wanting you for a trophy wife? If you are married, your wife should be a trophy wife anyway, right? (I can see men running away now…) Now, I need a volunteer to be my wife…

We can’t help who we’re attracted to. What we don’t know here is did Sarah only date Black men?
