*Black men are more extroverted and emotionally stable on average than White men, which seems to be a personality profile associated with mating success. However, such racial differences in the Big Five personality traits seem small and potentially not reliable.<ref>https://www.people.vcu.edu/~mamcdani/Publications/AOM_as_of_8%201%202008.pdf</ref> | *Black men are more extroverted and emotionally stable on average than White men, which seems to be a personality profile associated with mating success.

*A study on self-reported sex-workers on Amazon's MTurk platform found these women rate Black men as being the most the most sexually skilled race of men, while East Asians & South Asians were evaluated as being the sexually worse performing ethnicities.<ref>https://www.researchgate.net/publication/371701597_Racial_Differences_in_Sexuality_A_Sex_Worker_Survey p. 690)</ref> This is despite the fact that the prostitutes evaluated Black men as being more likely to be impolite compared to other races overall, suggesting they weren't perceived as more likable overall. However, the women in this study ultimately preferred White men as partners over Black men, even when controlling for ethnocentric bias.<ref>''ibid'', p. 691</ref> This may indicate that Black men are considered particularly sexually desirable when it comes to no-strings attached sex, at least among fast life strategy/promiscuous women. Part of this may also be explained by black men's apparent higher sexual stamina, as Black men were less likely to ejaculate quickly than other races of men according to the prostitute's reports.<ref>''ibid'', p. 689</ref><br>This longer ejaculation latency, however, may be explained by higher sexual experience/specific experience with sex workers among black men.{{Citation needed|date=June 2023|reason=In the article they say Black men are more likely to visit prostitutes}} Anecdotal reports from sex reports depict Black men as being more sexually aggressive than other groups of men on average (leading some to avoid them as clients),<ref>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00224499.2020.1830260 p. 6</ref> which may actually be desired by such women in particular (and perhaps women in general, as suggested by female pornography preferences).<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0191886919303204 p.45</ref><br>However, the authors of the Amazon Turk sex worker study left open the possible that ascertainment bias, caused by the higher propensity of Black men in the US to visit sex workers combined with the tendency of some sex workers to avoid them as clients biased the workers who ''did have'' experience with Black men in a more favorable direction, though they considered this unlikely.<ref>https://www.researchgate.net/publication/371701597_Racial_Differences_in_Sexuality_A_Sex_Worker_Survey p. 694></ref> | |||

*Most Black men don't have BBC according to statistics, while any racial differences in penis size being moderate when studies do find such group differences. Some argue that the idea that there are racial differences in penis sizes is a myth that relies on weak cherrypicked data.<ref>https://www.psychologytoday.com/ca/blog/unique-everybody-else/201210/the-pseudoscience-race-differences-in-penis-size</ref> However, there are studies demonstrating a small increase in the mean penis size compared to other races.<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0191886912000852</ref> If reliable, a small difference in the mean of a group leads to greater extremes at the tail ends of the standard distribution would mean the men with the very largest penises would tend to be Black much more often. | *Most Black men don't have BBC according to statistics, while any racial differences in penis size being moderate when studies do find such group differences.
