Interracial Misunderstanding

I began caressing her soft, sweet, chocolate skin.
"You're like a brother to me," she said,
"This has got to stop happening."
"Are you saying," I asked, 
"that I make love to you like a black man?"
"Not that kind of brother," she said, "you freaking moron."

"Love is a misunderstanding between two fools." How does a black man make love?

I wouldn't know Jean, but I've heard that once you go black you don't go back.
