Not necessarily, but because the spoken taboo of interracial dating has been lifted, I find that people feel that it's okay to indulge in that kind of mentality,nsince our sexual history has been so whitewashed that a lot of White people don't even process the fact that they are objecifying based on skin color and associated stereotypes.
Ex: A white woman I know (and I am by no means passing for White) actually said to my face, "I personally like (lust after) a strong Black man, but not to date." Again, just a nice, White person who has no idea what race actually means to them and NO IDEA what that attitude means to a person of color.
