What are your thoughts on interacial dating. Do you support it? Or do you shun apon it?
Well i have alot of interacial relationships in the past. Even though im only 15 I dated alot of girls . My first interacial relationship was with this korean girl named Amber. Everything was going alright then one day I asked her if I can meet her parents. Well after I met them and talked then i excused myself to the bathroom. I overheard them and her father said, "Why are dating a black man? He has nothing to offer you." That kinda made me bummed but couple weeks later we broke up, but were still the best of friends.
Have you guys had any interacial relationships in the past? If so, feel free to tell your story.
nothing wrong with it. i prob would never have one, since my biggest turn on is pale(very pale) skin, and I have never seen a non Caucasian that pale. granted, if the right gal comes along, who gives a **** about skintone.

We don't need no education!
We don't need no thought control,
No dark sarcasm in the classroom!

Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
About a year ago I met an African (from....Africa) guy (no names) at a bar in my super small town in North Dakota. Now you probably have to live here or live somewhere just like here to understand that the chances of finding an African in your city are pretty damn small. There isn't many! Dickinson (where I live. Pop. about 17,000?) is getting a little more diverse with its cultural backgrounds since our college has a lot of foreign students, mostly Asians, South American/Latinos, a few students from Africa and other parts of Europe.
Demographics for Dickinson, ND
97.16% White, 0.27% African American, 1.20% Native American, 0.24% Asian
Anyway. This guy and I were the same age and seemed to hit it off. We continued to hang out maybe twice a week or more for a couple months. He was here to go to college, but wasn't going yet, so he just had this little apartment, like three other friends (two of them black, the other one an old white guy), and a job at a golf course. I did tell my parents that I had a black, African friend. They didn't care so much. I am 23 and if they would have cared, so what, but my parents have always had much more open views about culture and race than the vast majority of the people where they live, which is even SMALLER than where I live by about 16,300 people. I understand that wherever you live in this world, you're going to meet some resistance if you are in a relationship with another person who looks different than you do. My friend did tell me he had concerns about being seen with me, for MY sake. Apparently he hadn't been having a very easy time living here so far. My African friend and I never did make it past the "really good buddies" stage. It had nothing to do with race.
If you are thinking about going into a relationship with someone who just so happens to have a different skin color than you, don't let it stop you, but be prepared to deal with the comments and opinions of other people. Rise above it!!! That's all you can do.
Interacial dating is still an issue? I thought this was the 21st century.
Joking aside, it doesn't matter to me. I'm a parent, and my hope is that my kids find someone who makes them happy, loves them, and is faithful to them. That is much more important than something as irrelevant as the color of their skin or what nationality they happen to be.
I have the same opinion about their sexual preferences (which I hopefully won't have to worry about for quite a few more years). Although I'd prefer them to be heterosexual, I would try to accept them if they happen to be gay/lesbian. Again, life is short and I want them to be happy, more than anything else. As long as there aren't hurting anyone, of course!
I think it crosses all distinctions, and political lines.
The most diehard liberals will give the same lines as the most diehard conservative if they feel the same on this issue.
For me, this has been dead for me since the day I was born, plus dead in Puerto Rican culture for a lot longer than it has been in American culture.
I have dated girls whose heritage ranges from Asia, Africa, Native American, Spainish, et cetera.
Of course, I am exposed to multiple cultures through the arts, and exposure to cultures is apart of my everyday philosophy.
Have I faced the brick wall of parents not approving myself because of who I am as a Hispanic?
Yes, I have. Dated one Caucasian girl, and had to face the whole issue of "Puerto Rican", but the relationship didn't last anyways due to it not working between us without that wall causing a problem.
I have faced it with African-American girl I dated once as well.
I find that parents tend to be a lot more apprehensive or maybe too expecting with what suitors their daughter brings home. That people don't fall into a predictable pattern, however, you will face opposition either way, even if race wasn't an issue...
You are dating their daughter, and unless they don't care about the child at all, then they are going to voice their opinion. That some of their misplaced fear happens to end up in the race column, but I just think it is fear of the unknown.
They expect certain predictable patterns with people of the same culture, and heritage, that when a new culture is introduced in this form, it can cause some disconnect.
I cannot wish for everyone to come to the same conclusion I draw, nor do I expect it. Just how I see it.
No real problem, I just dislike stupid people. Had an fob Asian friend who wanted to bag a caucasian girl as a sort of "trophy". I saw two of my cousin's best friends dress and act like dumb sluts so their non-asian dates would like them. I believe if you care for someone and truly respect his/her peoples, it's all good.
Why not? I'll give someone 10$ if someone can figure out even a decent reason why this would be bad.
