A very prevalent notion in modern society is the idea that black men are [[BiggerIsBetterInBed better endowed than other races]]. Even if penis size never explicitly comes up, one might still see references to the idea that black men are automatically good lovers. The stereotype is [[OlderThanTheyThink a very old one, likely dating back centuries]]. While it may initially seem like a flattering depiction, it has had some UnfortunateImplications and derives from quite a checkered past.

-->The whole black-guy-with-big-dick stereotype is crude and dehumanizing, it is othering in the highest degree, especially in (ugh) mainstream porn. As with the satyrs of old, the large penis is generally presented as something bestial, something indicative of animal urges and unthinking carnal excess.\\
But of course, we don't live in ancient Greece. In modern Western culture, large penises are lauded and sought-after, connoting bravery and strength. In the aforementioned porn, this leads to a strange dichotomy, in which well-hung black men are somehow simultaneously brutal savages ''and'' superior Ubermenschen.

[[DistaffCounterpart As for]] [[BlackJezebelStereotype black women]], they too were defined in terms of their sexual urges -- early psychologists (who'd invented the term "drapetomania" in order to frame black slaves' desire to be free as a form of mental illness) would occasionally "justify" white overseers and plantation owners' rape of slave women with the claim that black women were "hot" and therefore needed their masters' sexual control. Also like black men, this perception extended to bodily stereotypes, with black women being depicted with oversized breasts and rears, something that particularly took off in the wake of Khoikhoi woman Sarah Baartman's popularity as a freak show attraction during the 19th century.
Despite the throwback to Greek concepts, those specifical ideas applied to black people are, as mentioned above, NewerThanTheyThink and tied to certain cultural latitudes. This means some works fall in anachronism either humorously or out of genuine confusion -- for instance, depicting ancient Romans making this kind of appreciations about black slaves, in opposition to those of any other race.

century. Just as black men were perceived as hypersexual and always on the edge of rape (thus needing white supremacist violence to keep them in check), black women were, too, and in many places the law believed black women simply couldn't be raped because they always wanted it. If they tried to defend themselves to prevent it, why that was just the natural violence of black people on display.

However, you can find them in writings from the early modern era, such as Creator/WilliamShakespeare's depiction of the eponymous Theatre/{{Othello}}, who is described unambiguously as a black man by Iago and Roderigo and as having committed the nearly criminal act of eloping with Desdemona, which they tell her father about as a thoroughly sexual act ("an old black ram is topping your white ewe"). Your mileage may vary on how Shakespeare intended the audience to view Othello, but there's no denying that these tropes were in play, making them OlderThanSteam.
