Interracial dating

---

hey guys its me again! lol well anyways what are all of you guys take on interracial dating? for those of you who dunno what that is its like when a black girl and a white guy go out or like if a chinese dude and a white girl go out. there are other situations of course but im not gonna write them all out. personally i dont have anything against it but what about the rest of you? if you do have somethin against it, why?

personally i don't have anything against it :smile: I know many people in interracial relationships face many problems and prejudice, which is wrong, but if they know to expect it and stick by eachother then i can't see why they cna't be happy.

I have no problem with it. I know some people who do though.

humans are one raceskin colour is superficial

...does it matter? If you love or are attracted someone you dont care about their race...i have nothing against it at all

It's normal - what's the problem with it? Say you fall in love with someone over the internet. It doesn't matter what colour they are then, why would it matter when you meet them? (I'm not asking this of the OP , just putting this forward to anyone that thinks otherwise!).I'm an Aussie born Polish (No one can tell I'm Polish decendent) and my GF is Korean. In Australia it's pretty common in most places to see all kinds of couples mixing races. It's beautiful. There are still some neanderthal rednecks around though. We were abused once by some old, narrow minded woman.In Korea though it's a little different, we couldn't really go around walking hand in hand, people looked at us a bit.

agrees race shouldn't matter at all

In a perfect world, most of what is stated above would be true.

I don't understand why anyone would think antything of it! Were are all the same race, human!

Like everyone else has already said, there's nothing wrong with it. Heck, I'm white and Halle Barry's really hot.

I think it's fine. In some places though I have to admit that it could be trouble. North America for instance is okay, but in other places they may not be so accepting and especially if you have kids, they may have a rough life because of this.

Back off Bob, I'm already dating Halle.

I have no problem with it at all! I have a bit of a thing for asian girls, so if I was against interracial dating I would be limiting my choices a lot!

See, this is what I mean about humans vs. fidelity.

In places like France, interracial dating is not uncommon, especially in the cities. In the U.S., it still raises eyebrows in a lot of places. But if I cared about another person of a different race, I wouldn't care much about what society thinks.

If your family has a problem with race, though, things could get uncomfortable. (Remember Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?, with Sidney Poitier?)

Oh, they've made a remake of that with Bernie Mac and Aston Kutcher.And my grandmother is a big racist, but she is hilarious though. She doesn't have a clue about anything that goes in the world, she was shocked to see a black guy walk past her in the street! She asked me "when did they get in the country?" Poor old bat.

When they becom elderly, some people lose their inhibitions, don't really care what they say, and revert to being overt racists. It's an interesting issue, as the population ages.

I think if you're going to date someone of another race, you need to be aware of some extra obstacles that might befall you. Short of that, though, it's kosher. I had a professor once who thought that interracial dating was one of the best ways to alleviate racism....and Halle told me in bed last night that she's a bit tired of Unsuper and Imbob acting like they know here.

I'm not sure how Halle could talk with my...oh uh, never mind.Familial culture clashes can happen any time you date. It's part of life. The further separated the cultures, the worse it can get. It's something that has to be concidered, especially if there's a wedding in the future.That said, I cetainly have nothing against it. If my son dates interacially in the future, I will happily welcome her family into my own.

Agreed, but for some people the cultural distance can be an advantage.

Well, if you're lucky, you could end up with a couple of extra holidays to celebrate and the pot-luck dinners should be awsome!
