The term "Orange men" refers to members of the Orange Order, a Protestant fraternal organization founded in Ireland in 1795. The Orange Order is named after William of Orange, a Protestant king who defeated the Catholic King James II in the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. Members of the Orange Order are known for their allegiance to Protestantism and British identity.

Do Irish men like black women?

You can't lump a group of men into one bin and answer this, nor can you lump a group of women because some are attractive and some are not. Some Irish men may be attracted to some black women and some may not be. It all boils down to the individual. Some men may not care what race you are, if you're attractive then you're attractive. Others may care and not want to take the leap. So as for Irish men in general liking black women, that question is difficult to answer. But it's not impossible for one to be attracted to the other.
