jungle fever Mug

Though historically the term implied the sexual attraction of a Caucasian to an African, it has since been more widely used to denote the sexual attraction of an individual from a more expansive set of ethnic origins (e.g., Asian, Indian, Middle Eastern, Latino, or even Aboriginal, etc.) to a person of African (Black) ethnicity. The term has even shifted enough colloquially to commonly include an African who is attracted to a non-African, or merely the attraction of a person from one ethnicity or racial background to a person with a diversely different racial background. It is interesting to note that in several western ideologies it is the Black Africans who are associated with the Jungle; although all people's ancestors originated from the Jungle, possibly because of popular images that stem from associations with classic African slavery in the United States, it has become a common presupposition that the Jungle belongs to Black Africans. This has been exploited negatively and positively by both Black Africans and those who are not Black Africans. What may be even more significant to observe is the phenomenal implication of such an 'urbanly' popular term: it is becoming increasingly common in this age of homogenizing Globalization for some people to be attracted to that which is different, or exotic: This either conscious choice/ or subconscious instinct could result in the mutation or evolution of the Homo sapiens species. (Good or bad depending on the reader's ideology).
