| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 9:16:04 PM | I was just wondering what you all think about interracial dateing? I pretty much only date blk men.(tall ones yes) and don't seem to find to much of a choice out here in B.C. there seems to be more interracial dateing in Seattle. Anyone want to share anything on this subject I would love to hear what ya all have to say. Keep smiling.. things always happen for a reason  | |

| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 9:20:21 PM | | I could get a tan and wear tall shoes? but seriously..(oops twice in one day with that word), I don't have a preference when it comes to race..though i prefer humans...I am fairly gender specific, women. | |
|
| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 9:27:25 PM | | OK, good question. I think there is something hot about every race. True, if you're into black guys, there aren't a whole lot around BC, so that could make things tough for ya (tho there are some gooders here too!). So, I can see why Seattle might be more of a draw for you. I've met some really fab black guys there! Personally, I don't limit my interests to any one particular race. But if that's your thing, I can respect that. All the best, and good luck! I do think your best bets are in the US and maybe in Toronto though if that's mainly what you're looking for. I'm just talking numbers now though.... | |

| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 9:30:32 PM | If I find the women sexy, I'm down. I don't care what the race is, It's never even factored into the equation.
(BC, that's all the seriousness your allowed for this week. You can get serious again on Monday) | |

| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 9:37:56 PM | | Bugger, some girl comes on here and says she likes black guys, and steals all OUR guys away. This sucks!!! | |
|
| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 9:49:54 PM | well, we're talking about either or, right?
my 2 cents: as long as he's got boy parts and cute = its all good  | |

Dammit, now I'm being serious and I don't like that. | |

(insanely deep annoucers voice)...the poster formerly known as T E A22 has been reassimilated. Resistance is futile...this message has been brought to you by: the council to end sanity and seriousness...we now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
Please DON'T make me do this again...;-) | |

oh, hold it, we aren't on the "lies" thread.. | |

| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 10:14:51 PM | Hmm, my racial dating spectrum has been pretty limited to almost all white gals (of a bunch of ethnicities) though Im not opposed to dating other race's. The opportunity has just never come up. I tend to fall for individuals over anything else. | |

| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 10:24:46 PM | Well tallbabe, I was once in a long term relationship with a lady who was half Mexican and half Parisian French. Now for anyone who might be wondering about a hispanic lady's fierce, firey, wild-sided passion, all I can say is if she's a full blooded latino, hang onto your boots cause you might die, but at least you're gonna go with a great big smile on your face! Devoted to a fault they are. They definitely have a side to them that, unfortunately, no caucasian lady to date has ever come close to matching. Perhaps I've been meeting up with the wrong caucasian ladies? lol
Additionally, I was once in a relationship of sorts with a lady who's half Cree. Initially she was reluctant to inform me of her First Nations background due to being the recipient of too many stereo-type remarks from men in my position. Little did she know that I have an aunt who's First Nations. Nevertheless, she's truly a Cree "princess" and not anything like the stereo-typing she was mistitled with. Fortunately for me the other guys all blew it. :)
And not unlike the half Mexican lady, I can only imagine how wild she'd be if she were full blooded Cree. ;)
For the record, my ex is caucasian so I'm not into reverse discrimination either.
Society in Canada, for the most part, is "accepting" of interracial relationships if that's what you're looking for, "confirmation" so to speak. However, I do know of some areas that are mere minutes away from us, just south of the border, where racism is rampant. If you venture south to find a partner please be careful as they view you to be no better than your partner.
I would suggest that you not limit yourself to only one race as you just might be pleasantly surprised by, of all people, a caucasian male. One never knows if one never tries. This was part of my approach to meeting both "ethnic" ladies mentioned above.
So in closing tallbabe, if you find someone that sets your heart on fire, regardless of their ethnicity, and who is LOYALLY passionate beyond reproach, I wish you both all the best. It's your choice for YOUR HAPPINESS, no one else's.
Sincerely,
Chiv.

| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 11:33:04 PM | Chiv, do u know me well enuff to judge me like that?
ok, besides the fact that I do do that... TEA is a hottie | |

| Interracial Dating? Posted: 6/9/2005 11:43:48 PM | The problem with this type of question is that race does not really exist as such.
A person's inherited skin tone (and there are a million variations) may or may not serve as a visual indicator of that person's nationality, culture, religion, etc.
So what really matters is what people ASSUME about a person based on their skin color. I don't think any person in a so-called "interrational relationship" is in it because of the color of their or their partner's skin; they already know what all the other traits their partner does or doesn't have, so they don't need a "clue" from the skin tone.
Unfortunately, that won't stop the bigoted (ie, dummies who think that skin tone is a reliable indicator of pertinent information about somebody) people around you from ostracizing you. This goes for the people who were already in your partner's life as well.
Don't ever underestimate the power of social ostracism. It hurts. You will probably have to make difficult decisions about who to keep in your life and who to turn your back on.
It reminds me of the younger men/older women "controversy." Hmmm, that would be a good thread. | |

It's called "humour" and "playing on words" is all. Nothing was meant by it at all.
If you were truly offended please accept my sincerest apology.
