Dear Black men, who marry White women, be with your Ween (White queen) and go. NBA star Patrick Patterson is apologizing after calling Black women “bulldogs,” because you know… he couldn’t defend his White wife without bashing the entire race of Black women.
A fan commented under a photo of Patterson and his wife Sarah Nassar, questioning why Black male athletes wait until their rich to choose partners of a different race and added that Nassar probably wouldn’t have given him a chance, as a Black man, if he wasn’t an athlete.
“So I should settle for a bulldog and act like I’m happy with my life and preach ‘keep it in your race’ to the world as if Dr. King didn’t fight/die for equality, acceptance, all cultures loving one another, and no hate?” Patterson responded.
Patterson had the right to be offended by the fan’s rude comment, but here’s where he went wrong. Instead of coming directly for that person, he dissed all Black women by calling them “bulldogs.”
The old exchanged resurfaced on social media, leading to backlash then an apology, of course.
“I want to address my use of the word ‘bulldog’ during a conversation with someone who I felt was making disrespectful remarks about my wife and our relationship, I responded with the same, making a cruel comment on his wife’s physical stature,” he wrote. “I know that two wrongs don’t make a right, but I let my emotions get the best of me in the heat of the moment. For that I apologize to him, his wife, and the rest of his family for the hurtful and crude comments made on that day.”
Here’s the thing Patterson, you can defend your Ween without damning all of Black women. Interracial dating isn’t a new concept, nor are the conversations surrounding the Black men who choose to be with White woman. Particularly, after they’ve attained a certain level of affluence. In the words of Kanye, “And when they get on, they leave your a** for a White girl.”
Much of the narrative centers around white women being a symbol of social economic status. A trophy. In addendum, that Black women are disposable after surviving the struggle with a man to only be dropped as soon as the struggle is over. Then there’s the other half of it, of Black men who hate Black women because their standard of beauty is rooted in Eurocentric views.
Patterson praised his wife for having a one-of-a-kind “heart,” which wholeheartedly may be his truth but his use of the term “bull frog” and the proximity to self-hate feels too close for comfort.
Patrick Patterson is on the hot seat aftr his comments sent social media into a frenzy.
The Los Angeles Clippers forward married his girlfriend earlier this year, but when one fan saw his wife, he questioned him on it. This one fan basically stated that if he had never made it to the NBA, the woman in question would’ve never married him.
Paterson fired back with the ‘love is love’ answer, but the fan kept going, telling him that he grew up loving Black women and stated the White woman he married would’ve never looked his way if had been working at Walmart.
That’s when Patterson referred to settle for Black Women by calling them ‘bulldogs.”
Patrick Patterson is in hot water after he responded to a fan on Instagram who suggested that Patrick wouldn’t have a chance with his white wife if he wasn’t in the NBA. Patrick responded by calling black women bulldogs to which he later apologized.
It all started when Patterson posted a photo of his wife Sarah Nasser, wishing her a Happy Anniversary when a fan replied about his choice in women. The fan questioned why he waited until he got money to start dating white women, and insinuated if he worked in Walmart he wouldn’t have a chance with his wife.

He wrote, “So I should settle for a bulldog and act like I’m happy with my life and preach ‘keep it in your race’ to the world as if Dr. King didn’t fight/die for equality, acceptance, all cultures loving one another, and no hate? “No thanks,” continued the 30-year-old basketball player. “That maybe your life but I don’t want that for mine or my family. Color doesn’t matter. Wake up.”

A photo of a female hockey fan who was busting out of her jeans at a Leafs-Devils game in early 2024 has gone viral online again.
Said supporter was pictured in the stands wearing a Devils Jack Hughes jersey, but that was probably the least interesting thing about her as a lower body part caused her to trend on X.
A new set of photos of her showing her assets off has popped up online ahead of the weekend, with one of the accounts posting asking, “Are you a hockey fan?”
