I’m a Black woman who’s really into western/country lifestyle (dirt bikes, fishing, outdoors, etc.) and I tend to be attracted to country-type guys (not white guys specifically). The issue I’m running into is feeling like a lot of guys in that space either don’t date Black women or don’t align with my values (I’m very confident and prideful in my identity and not willing to tone that down). I’m not looking to settle or change who I am, but I’m starting to wonder if I’m just making things harder for myself by sticking to that type. Has anyone had success dating in that space, or should I be approaching this differently?
