| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 1/23/2007 10:45:56 PM | | I look at it this way dogs don't mate with cats, but for example a Boxer will mate with a Poodle. See what I'm getting at they are both dogs just different breeds. Would I allow my children to date outside of their "race"? No I'd like them to stay with the HUMAN RACE. I just want them to be happy, to be truly in love and be loved by another wonderful HUMAN. As for me hell I'd just like to meet someone to date. | |

How do you feel about interacial dating?
I don't believe in it.
There is no such thing, I don't think, as races.
Because no finish line has been established yet. How can you have a race if we don't know where we are going? We do know where we came from though. Geneticists have finally proven what many have said all along, all human life began in Africa. So, starting line established as African as human start off point, which means everyone is the same race, just branches of f the main trunk, idiosyncrasies of nature and adaptation. So it’s kinda hard to believe in race, I mean where and when do you draw the lines? Silly.
But my young red headed fair haired friend wants to mate with a darkly pigmented man so any future children will not burn in earth’s new atmosphere. There are those types of considerations to look at. | |

What are you talking about? The rest makes since to me, although I have not yet heard about all life beginning in Africa, though I've not heard otherwise. But what the heck did you smoke after the word "silly"? Maybe too much of this ??? Having a child with someone because its best for their children's skin-well-being? I am fair skinned, which is what I think you meant, and that thought sounds absolutely assinine to me. Yes I think about what will be best for my future children, but by location, and my choice in jobs, and my choice in their mother. I don't want to tell my children, "Well, your Dad WAS in love once to a wonderful woman, but she was pale, and, well, I just didn't want you to get sunburned."
Interracial dating/marriage go for it, but do it because you are interested in that person. | |

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 1/25/2007 6:09:08 PM | | I LOVE interracial dating. At first I didn't know what it was then a friend told me about it. It's like a group of people who are joined together and they run races all over the city. I think I'm gonna join the next one in spring. | |

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 1/25/2007 6:20:49 PM | | Ok. Some people have said some weird things on here so far. I just wanted to go on the record saying that I am half white, and half hispanic. I also grew up in a household with my white mother, and hispanic step-father. (Yes, my mom likes Puerto Ricans). Anyway, regardless of that, I am not prejudice at all toward any race. In fact, the only people I really can't stand at all, are prejudice people. I don't think that anyone should generalize any one race, because everyone is different inside in many different ways. And, I find men and women of all races beautiful, or unattractive, and can tell you who I think is attractive or not, regardless of their race. However, I am only sexually attracted to white men. I don't know why. My skin is pretty tannish, and I guess I would just prefer having children with fair skin. That is the only reason I can think of. If my children want to date or marry interacially, they can go right ahead. It wouldn't bother me at all, as long as they are happy. Really, who cares who dates who? It's their own business. | |

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 1/26/2007 5:05:36 PM | | Brettd. After silly, and no, no beer involved, I was repeating something that I overheard being discussed by four teenage girls. This young woman mentioned is very fair and burns easily. The climates where her Scottish Ancestors came from is changing< Sun is hotter, and weather patterns are progressivly becoming more severe. These girls think ahead, generations ahead. It's called being responsible. | |

There are those types of considerations to look at. You need to have her look at Asians. Asians are the most adaptable in that we can produce as little or as much melanin as necessary to handle a variety of environmental conditions.

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 1/26/2007 6:03:58 PM | | Thats the blonde one,(swiss) who likes the asian boys. And she is only 17. Now her theory is that the asian boys in her school are smart, and she wants smart kids. Her asian gf likes Indi boys. All the girls like the gay guys, though I'm not sure what that's about......lol | |

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 5/11/2007 12:02:09 PM | I'm not proud of my ancestry. I'm not ashamed of my ancestry. I didn't choose it, why endorse or condemn it? It's silly.
I date women of any race/background that appeal to me for a myriad of reasons who also express interest in what I have to offer. That's my only real criteria. | |

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 5/11/2007 12:09:06 PM | | Are you American? Why are Americans so hung up about interracial relationships. It is such a non-issue. I couldn't care less about colour, and no one i know would let race be a factor in their choice of partner. We are all the same: human! Don't let politics determine your partner! | |

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 5/12/2007 1:49:43 AM | ^^^^But why?? Its possible to simply be attracted to a certain "type" isn't it? I mean, if I had a dime for every time some guy said blonde hair or big boobs made a woman "hot".......its the same thing. Lumping everybody under ATTRACTIVE just because of one physical attribute.
Its not smart......but I don't think I've heaved over it yet. I could say the same thing about hearing black men declare some chick hot over simply being white. But hey, different strokes for different folks...no skin off my nose. We've all got enough folks admiring whichever race we are. | |

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 5/12/2007 2:14:33 AM | If you study all the statistics, you will find that the number of race mixers is approximately equall to the number of homosexuals, i.e about 5%.
On sites like this, you will have "the bandwagon effect," and people for fear of voiceing thier true feelings will say they are all in favor. But, like the snake oil salesmen of yesterday, these same people will not think of pertaking what they prescibe to others.
This is a 19th century idea that a few ball game fans and 30 second sound bite people think is something new. It is old news. Time to put this practice to rest. Look at the Caribean and Haiti. Want to live there? Want your grandchildren to look like that? Let the less sophisticated think what they like, they are simply indulging in something that is a hundred and fifty years old. | |

And that dosent make you feel the least bit inferior? The fact that black guys would choose a white girl over you despite the fact that you come from the same culture as them, are subject to the same bigotry (from white people in fact), and share the same history? | |

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 5/12/2007 11:11:30 AM | And that dosent make you feel the least bit inferior? Uhhhh...f*** no. Why should it? I am supposed to hang my self esteem on being what EVERY man on the planet deems as most attractive? Cuz that would basically be my issue if it bothered me.
I'm sure your mother or SOMEone has told you this before...but no one can make you feel inferior. Its a choice that you make yourself.
I don't need someone to share my culture with me to be compatible with him. Nor do I need him to be subjected to the same prejudices ......why would I? There are bigger things in this world to worry about when it comes to a match. I'd rather he have to the same faith as I do or the same views in terms of child rearing. THOSE are important. If I need someone who completely understands the black struggle in America or knows what its like to be called a racist slur, then I'll go to my friends or family. My mate doesn't have to be my mirror image OR my social image. Quite frankly its a little patronizing to see someone assume that I automatically share the same history and life experiences with ANYone simply by virtue of the color of his skin.
Some brotha having a preference for light skin, blue eyes and blonde hair isn't a reflection on me. In fact, it has nothing to do with me. We ALL have preferences....doesn't mean that we don't find beauty or attraction in attributes that are OUTside those preferences. I can say I prefer white men...black men...Asian men..whatever. Thats not me saying that the rest are ugly, stupid, or less than those that I prefer. Its simply talking about something that I may have noticed I am more drawn to.
I don't understand it when people make this into something personal...as if to say that every black man who dates a white woman is rejecting ME or my race in some way. Its not. If ANYone is dating someone because they feel their skin color makes them BETTER than other races, they have a bigger problem than anything we can possibly dissect here on a message board. People personalizing it....making it "he chose a white woman OVER YOU"....thats ridiculous. Was I on the table as an offer when he made his decision? I mean, did he know me, see me, date me and then say "Naww..no thanks, I'll take the white girl because she's white."
My man is white. I have dated a lot of white men. And some Hispanic ones....African Americans....you get the picture. But PHYSICALLY, I like the look of dark haired white men. Thats not a slam to any of my black counterparts, its just ONE of the things I'm attracted to. I've been attracted to all sorts of men. But its like having a favorite flavor of icecream ...its ALL good. But everybody has a favorite.
I'm not about to get my panties in a bunch over some brotha picking a white girl rather than a black one. And I would hope that black guys aren't looking at me with my white man and making asinine assumptions about me thinking white is "better". I sure as hell hope it doesn't make them feel inferior of all things.  | |

| How do you feel about interacial dating? Posted: 5/12/2007 7:38:30 PM | Here's an idea to really consider. The "BIBLE SAYS" ! ADAM was created from the earth (black as dirt). It also says, " EVE " was created from ADAM'S side, one of his ribs (bones are white as snow ).
ADAM was Ebony and EVE was Ivory. This may explain the BM's fascination with WW! or WW fascination with BM....smile.
I read this somewhere, but for the life of me......
Myself I have an attraction to men of color, however this attraction is the same as anyone else to green eyes or blond hair. At the end of the day - love has no color... but a black man....hmmmm sure does know how to be sweet.....
Cheers
