Holy Cow - I am with you on that one OG...yikes eh.

I don't care about race - the boundary that always seems to get me is religon. I am not - sometimes i have felt like I am a conversion project - meh - no thanks.

Ya i am the same, dont care but have found religion usually is something to avoid. If someone is devout anything it usually means "you will convert or i will make your life hell"

I am a dedicated insomnianc lysdexic agnostic.....altho i am failry certain there is a dog- i heard it howling last night at 3 am

you'll find interracial dating around larger cities primarily...Seattle just happens to be an american city, hence having more black people..................go to chilliwack you won't find much interracial dating there! hahaha...I only laugh because most of my friends outside of Vancouver are hicks and would NEVER date outside of their colour. Hmmmmm let me guess, they've never travelled outside of greater Vancouver, they've never tried Thai, Indian, Vietnamese or Malaysia or gone to see a foreign film...go figure.......I find it ignorant and uncultured as i myself date whomever I fancy...good!!! let US have the best of everything :)

Brought a boyfriend, who happened to be black, to a wedding in Armstrong, BC....all we could hear was 'who's the darkie'........now if that just doesn't want to make you hurl...

Ok... hang on a sec.. *blink blink*.. I'll admit there are some serious problems CANADA wide with racism.. the real difference between Canada and the US on that topic is Canadians are more sublte with their attitudes... you find more "polite" racists here..

And on the topic of Chilliwack... uhm.. I live here, and I see alot of interracial dating/marriages... It's true.. I seen it wit my own two I's...

As for myself.. I've dated the woman I met who've interested me.. pigment of skin has never been an issue for me.. If the lady I meet is purple but we enjoy each other's company.. what else is there....

Ya'all have a g'day!!

my comments about buring him instead of our bras was in response to his complete racial discrimintation against Asian women....

he can say I have an attitue all he wants, that doesnt other me. Im sensing he is intimidated by a strong woman, which I make no apologies for being

As far as the interracial dating....

I date whom ever peaks my interest regardless of race. Physical attraction is the first thing obviously if its someone i dont know.... BUT personality is always what will keep me around, and personality is NOT determined by race

I cant believe this is a topic nowadays... what the hell... arent people just people???

who the hell cares what color, nationality, etc someone is? its basic, we are all human beings. Some do have a "preference" to a particular "look"... but to base on how you think someone's race/nationality will treat you better (or worse)? thats just strange.

OG what did you say to me about someone else? lol just like them...Leave them alone, they are old lmao. (*Note - I love people of all ages. It was a joke. Laugh people!*)

OT 8.5% - I've dated interracially, it's not about the race it's about the personality and physical attraction.

Personally I'm not attracted to Asian women, but I'm not dating women. LOL

i think the source of alot of your skepticism is the extreme patriarchal aspect of alot of asian cultures. It maybe more dedicated to "the team" but the man is the coach which does not fly with alot of people around here. Chinese/japanese culture tends to not have the greatest record of womens rights

oh I agree......canadians are not as blatant about racism as our friends from the south, and sure the big city is spreading to the east, but come on...its still redneck as hell in chilliwack! funny thing, I grew up in Abbotsford and I'm staying in Chilliwack at the moment and can't wait to get back to the city.

and I have heard it with my own two ears how 'polite' people can be... behind closed doors and behind peoples backs.....I'm just saying I do not hear the racist comments when I am in the city (as much)...hmmmmm does education have anything to do with it?

I am generalizing I agree, just stating my opinion, from what I have experienced personally ;) cheers

P.S. I could tell you stories about my visit to Bedford Styverson, NY and the crazy a@@ blonde haired white chick in the middle of Harlem and what they thought of me out there ;)

Pisces fro sure, i really think you should just stop posting

my verbal attack on your post DOES NOT prove your point. I dont have an attitude, I just dont like blatant disregard in peoples posts. Call me crazy, but your first post was racist

All I am saying is that in Asian culture the man and woman work as a team and I really mean it. There is more devotion to the marriage or relationship.


Hey Pisces, this is the same culture where the men spend more time with their male buddies drinking, smoking opium and fondling each other than with their wives. Give me a western women with an attitude anyday over that freak show.

LotusFlowr: Being that I grew up out in the valley, I am speaking from experience....It doesn't matter the color of your skin....we are gonna make fun of you, talk behind your back (or front) and laugh like crazy about it. Thats just the way we roll out here. You metion Abbotsford and Chilliwack as racial hotbeds when in reality they are the two most racially diverse communtities in the lower mainland. Just because we are east of the Port Mann doesn't mean we don't know where the airport is. I've travelled alot but always come home to the valley. People are real here.

OG - Keep Blasting them....maybe some of these mental midgets will realize that just because they saw it on the Discovery channel, doesn't make it a fact

Hobbes...we've been thru this one before in another post.

there are species, ie: dog, human, forum junkies, birds...

and then there are races, ie: asian, white, black, hispanic...

it's a nice sentiment and all...but it just doesn't apply.

'that's just the way we roll out here'....'people are real here'.....so making fun of everyone for you own pleasure makes ya real??? brilliant statement.....lol....yes they are racially diverse communities, I grew up there as well...and it was racist (back then and i still hear it now)...but with a growing population and a younger educated population it has changed...I'm sorry but chilliwack is still in the sticks...

as I said, I AM generalizing I agreeee 100% that I am generalizing....and this is MY opinion only and what I have observed with my own two eyes...don't get your knickers in a knot...its a hot topic

I apologize if I gave you the impression that my "knickers" are in a knot.....not so. I was just defending us poor dumb rednecks and what we call home. My light hearted poke about making fun of people was actually pointing out that we (and I am only talking from my experiences and friends) treat every one equally. To us, it's not a hot topic but more like a dead horse. Keep beating it if you want.

I personally am all for interracial, interspecie or even intergalactical dating. Heck, my belief in individuality and personal freedom definitley helps me be a champion to that cause. But that belief also keeps me from standing by when someone "generalizes" blatant derogatory statements at a culture and lifestyle they dislike.

As for the comment about Chilliwack still being "the sticks" .....god willing, it will always be that way. The 'Wack is beautiful just the way it is (don't go changing baby, I love you just the way you are).

My family tree is predominantly Welsh, Irish and scotish.....and you wouldnt believe the racism i suffer 0-o....girls refuse to date short , green leperchauns with bad tempers that wear kilts and herd sheep.....
But i have no problem with anyone's ethnicity as long as they can get over the shameful embaressment of me looking white and dancing like I was raised in the suburbs.

ouch!! someone still has their knickers in a knot...was very much joking to begin with.......defending rednecks is needed to.....lol......I will generalize until the cows come home until the day I'm an expert on everything ;) just stating my own sweet opinions honeybun....my apologies if I did make 'blatant derogatory statements at a culture and lifestyle they dislike', I like the 'sticks' and am living in the WACKETY WACK at the moment.....I, me, myself and I, just don't like the comments made by 'some' people when I'm out in these parts...

good day and happy interracial friday day!!! :)
