sorry call me lazy, but I didnt look thru the threads to see if there was a subject up like this one already, didnt feel like it, but perhaps there are other opinions out there, new members maybe.

I dont see your thread on the first page so ... never saw it ...

I don't see anything wrong with it. If two people from different races find one another then more power to them. The only problem is the families. Often, they cannot accept the black/asian/Indian boy/girl that their son/daughter is seeing.

I think we are all subject to inter-racial dating, i'm like the heinze 57 secret sauce-part Indonesian/Dutch-part Irish/Welch, Women always ask if i'm Italian. Our society has evolved enough, interracial dating has become the norm. Not many pure races out there anymore unless you run around with your friends in bedsheets burning crosses late at night, or you could be from Newfy land where the gene pool is about as deep as a mudpuddle, lol ,lmao, Just kiddin' around T.j.

I find most of the time its not so much the parents and their thinking, its the friend of the parents, or the friend of a friend of the parents who doesnt think its proper.

Sorry I dont remember the name, but the guy who said he is like the heinz 57, its actually like that these days, and if we look deep enough, its pretty much been like that...

I was just curious to see what some thought other than those I hang around socially.

Thanks.

i believe if u like some one it does not matter bout their race, ive been going out wid a girl for 4yrs who is of a differant race to me, but there are some barriers like family and culral differances to overcome

For the two people having the relationship, I don't think it is as much a (potential) problem, as it is for any children which might result. Teasing, prejudice and ignorance are much less tempered in children, and it can be very hard if they grow up in an intolerant neighbourhood.

hmm ok im really looking around alot!! i met a very good pal from here who is black.. hes one of my new best friends....and last week met a sweetheart who is chinese!! I never would have thought that I would shop around.. and try some new ppl out of my own race. But really my frind who is black is wonderful to me and my new chinese guy pal is wonderful to me too. Im meeting him tomorrow after a week of 3 hour phone calls and you know what>> we click!! We can talk and talk and talk wich I think is so important!! We live 30 min away form eachother and we both are so excited to meet. I dont really care if hes chinese or not....as long as we look in eachothers eyes and think we're the luckiest people ever to find eachother then life is beautiful.

People should date whoever they feel comfortable with regardless of race or any other differences.

Well, my family is completely color-blind (IE not at all rascist in any way), and so I grew up without any thoughts of looking at people differently jsut because they were froma different race. I've dated all different types of girls....black, white, irish, native american, latino, russian......I jsut love women. Hell, I am polish, so I guess its no biggie. My family is completely accepting of everyone, so I don't have any concern about them being weird about it. The whole "inter-racial dating" thing doens't even enter my mind....I just see beautiful women.

ive noticed blck parents dont like thier black daughters dating white men, and white parents dont like thier white daughters dating black men. the other ways of the equation they dont seem to care all that much. but i live in southern illinois and i once saw a bonfire outside of town with a bunch of people wearing white sheets around it.

White sheet wearing people? That sounds like a meeting of the Mighty Moron White Power Rangers!

I think it is just how you were raised and what your personal preferences are..

And here is where I make a Crap load of new friends.. but I am honest..

I only date within my own race.

It is my preference... period.

But too each it's own..

Well I didn't read all of this forum yet, but some. And what I did read was possitive. For me race or color have no meaning. I would date a woman whatever color her skin might be. It's the person on the inside that makes us who we are not our heritage.

I think Interracial Dating is fine. It is certainly much better than it was 20-30 years ago. But it's still not perfect out there yet because there are still pockets of racism all over the world. The situation is not going to change overnight but maybe in 20-30 more years it will be gone or slight enough that it isn't an issue anymore. Bottom line if you love the person and they love you back, race doesnt matter.
