| How do you feel about Interracial Dating ? Posted: 3/27/2008 5:23:15 PM | I haven't read 4 years worth of posts, but I think I agree with most. I've said it before, "love thy neighbor, both literally and figuratively" Life is too short, challenging your preconceptions and misconceptions is the way to be happy and discovering the beauty in a place where you never thought to look is the key. | |

| Re: How do you feel about Interracial Dating ? Posted: 4/21/2008 10:07:53 PM | I grew up in a small rural farming community in Southern, Illinois. In my youth, racism was alive and well but I never felt comfortable with the attitudes. One of the turning points in my life was the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King. I studied the man and his hopes and dreams in High School. I felt it truly changed my whole thought process and made me become. I fell we are first and foremost all human beings and yes there are different ethnic backgrounds and beliefs. However, who are we to judge what is right or wrong when people of different ethnic backgrounds find love between them. I'm a person who is more interested in what is in the heart of a lady and not the color of her skin. So with that said, and having experienced dating ladies of different ethnic backgrounds and having wondeful dates, I'm pro interracial dating. I'm more concerned with my happiness than I am with receiving approval from a community who passes judgement on people they don't even know. | |

| Re: How do you feel about Interracial Dating ? Posted: 4/22/2008 12:26:03 PM | It's a non-issue for me
People are people... skin colour has no meaning for me except aesthetically (some people have really nice skin... of all colours) Culture might be more of an issue... guess it depends on whether two people can mesh different cultures.
I think the world will be a happier place when this question sounds ridiculous. | |

Skin ain't nothing but a number. | |

| Re: How do you feel about Interracial Dating ? Posted: 4/23/2008 9:36:05 AM | | ^^^ sure they will, they'll just be themselves firstly. It's not always necessary, anyway, except for simpletons, to have to "identify" 100% with one particular ethnic or racial group anymore. It seems to me that people who are of two ethnicities or two races tend to "identify" more strongly with whichever was stronger when they were growing up. For instance if someone's dad was originally from Greece, and the mother was just American let's say.....and the culture on his paternal side growing up was pretty strong (hearing the language , etc) and plus his name is very ethnic, he might well end up calling himself pretty much just "Greek" or "Greek-American", and not going into whatever all his mom's little American mixture happened to be. Granted that's not biRACIAL , but still........ it's similar with the biracial as well. Some identify more as black, others may more as white. Or whatever the mix is. Anyway IMO mixed peoples happen to be some of the most attractive people in many cases, physically. | |

| How do you feel about Interracial Dating ? Posted: 4/25/2008 2:40:29 PM | | I agree with Raven Star. Skin color isn't important. Ethnicity isn't important. Religion isn't important to me. Only gender (I only date women! LOL) and the quality of their soul. | |

Posted: 5/3/2008 9:56:13 AM | interracial dating is a go since thats how i was born. if my parents and grandparents kept it in the same race then i wouldt be here as well as so many people. because in the end its not the race but the personality that matters and how in the end how you both get along oh and one more thing about interracial dating when it leads to marriage damn babies get so cute lol | |

| How do you feel about Interracial Dating ? Posted: 5/4/2008 6:56:11 AM | I agree with the last post... Interracial kids are the luckiest. You look at some of the movie stars/ models that looks GOOD! Naomi Campbell, Tiger Woods, Kiora Lee-Simmons, Russell Wong, the girl from Smallville, etc... They end up looking exotic which appeals to a lot of people. All nationalities have good looking people!
However, my problem as an Asian girl is trying to figure out if the guy that is asking me out is interested in me or the fact that I'm Asian. No one likes to be stereo-typed for good or bad... I know there's a lot of fettish for Black/Asian/Hispanic girls based on sexual thoughts. For any ethnic guy to date a White girl is a status symbol. No one likes to be an object... If you like a person for who they are, what their nationality they are should not matter.
However, my personal preference is Asian but if I meet a great guy, the skin color doesn't matter. | |

| How do you feel about Interracial Dating ? Posted: 5/4/2008 7:47:00 AM | | I personally have no problem with the concept of and by itself, but the grim reality which faces interracial couples, even in this day and age, is daunting. I know a lot of interracial couples, and the horror stories they tell about how they've been treated in public by bigoted people is not only shameful, but downright scary. Even in this enlightened age interracial couples get a very rough ride. As one poster stated, "you only live once" I prefer not to live that life as the butt of racial tension. Sorry. | |

| Re: How do you feel about Interracial Dating ? Posted: 5/4/2008 8:50:22 AM | sdbeachlife2 if you want to call interracial kid's mongrel then you better start looking in to your own family tree. american's are a blending of races color's and creed's. and god created everything to be with it's own kind. dog with a dog and a horse with a horse and the race of man to be with the race of man. in is by man's own ignorance that race's are created . | |
