I'm black and mexican, mixed with a little Aztec, German, French, and a lot of other shit lol. I'm attracted to pretty people, regardless of race. *Obviously* my family raised me to not look at skin color as a sign of beauty. I know some people who just don't find other races sexually attractive, so they don't date them. For the most part, I don't think that's racism, it's just how they were raised and what kind of people they looked up to as a child *which is how a lot of personal preferences are developed*.
I do see a lot of black women react negatively to black men dating other cultures. It kinda infuriates me because I wouldn't be here if they didn't ;). I had an aunt who didn't like my mom because she was Mexican. I just want to tell people to mind their own business and let others be happy...

Interesting. You're also homosexual right? EDIT: In case you're put off by the question, it's simply because it reminded me of how much I dislike homophobes and such. Another topic for another day, I suppose.

Have you ever noticed that some people who strictly date inside their ethnic background look very similar to each other?

Yeah, I'm a lot of minorities lol. I'm not put off by it :). I've had a taste for latin lately, but I've been known to date all colors of the rainbow. Except asian. For some reason, I can not find a gaysian that dates black guys lol. It's sad because the majority of them are friggin' beautiful hahaha!

This shouldn't be an issue in our day and time.

That's just my opinion though.

You're absolutely right, but unfortunately, some places haven't gotten the memo yet :-\

I'm almost 100% Irish (ie- Whitey O'Whiteyman), but my fiancee is half Indian (dot) and half Mexican. I call her my Indexican Princess. We live in LA and noone gives a shit our colors don't "match". But when we go back to visit my family in Alabama, we do get the occasional odd look from a stranger. But screw those people. They're living in the last millennium... literally.

I'm a blue eyed white boy. The last girl I was in a relationship with was Salvadoreña. And a Black chick is currently forcing herself on me. I haven't dated a white chick in a long time. It's not that I don't like them though. It's because I love the suicide emo doesn't tan kinda white girl. I don't have any tattoos or piercings so it's hard for me to get with those type of chicks. Plus white chicks seem pretty vain to me.

I'm half Irish and half Korean. Most people just look at me like I'm Asian. I'm from a city so we're pretty progressive here and I don't know anybody who cares about interracial dating. Most girls I have gone out with have either been white or Hispanic. I've hooked up with girls of every ethnicity, except for Indian. Not because I choose not to, but just because it has not happened.

I'm Korean and French mixed. I always try to find the most beautiful Asian girl possible. Though I did recently date a girl that was 1/3 black. I don't mind interracial dating at all, if the girl is beautiful, I'll most likely be interested in her.

It's weird, most of the 'picky' hispanic people I've met either stay in the race *full blooded, not mixed like myself :(* or only date white guys. Older ones seem to like dark meat more lol, but that's just my personal experience in Texas.

Interesting stuff, man. I've dated one black girl and one half Mexican half White girl.

I've yet to have a real relationship, but I've been trying my luck with anyone I find attractive.

Also, Skyboy is right. Asians seem VERY exclusive with their romantic preferences.

PS: I am currently obsessed with Latinas and surrounded by White women who may or may not want my boner.

you really need a podium and a choir behind you, you are preaching the truth

I am the bi-product of interracial dating/marriage. I'm part Asian (Japanese), part Aboriginal Canadian (Cree), part slavic (Russian) and part gaelic (Scottish). My wife is German, British and Irish.

If we have kids, they're gonna be like 7 different ethnicities.

Personally, I don't give a damn about interracial dating, any more than I give a damn about non-heterosexual dating. People love each other; people wanna fuck each other. And I'd like to think that we are all people first, everything else second.

Interracial dating can be tough ESPECIALLY when you factor in the family's prejudice/bias. For example I'm white and my girlfriend is black and her mom has openly expressed a preference to her daughter "ending up with" a black man. She told this to her daughter in private naturally and treats me with decency and respect anytime I've interacted with her. I know it's going to be an issue long-term though since the relationship is going pretty well.

I know I risk going into racist territory here, but I've noticed that black women seem to be against interracial dating more than any other demographic,
while black men are among the most open to the idea.
When my girl and I went to Asia, we saw literally an uncountable number of black men there with asians or white girls. We saw a grand total of *three* black women, and they were all with black men.
This was a month-long visit, too, so it's a fairly large sample size, albeit a very specific one.
Conclusions: black women don't seem interested in Asia, black women don't seem interested in non-black men.
There are, of course, *plenty* of exceptions.
This is by no means some blanket generalization.

I personally am not into it, but if others want to engage in it, more power to them.

Wow. I find that to be a little shocking.

If it makes you both happy then fuck everything else and fuck each other.

Haha, no seriously though I've never dated a white girl even though I'm pastier than Elmer's Glue. Don't know why exactly I just prefer other ethnicities especially asian. So I definitely approve of interracial dating.

I don't totally disagree with wanting to be with someone your own race. But I'm from the south and understand this point of view. Some people consider it narrow minded but whatever. There must have been some reason white people were grouped in Europe, Asians in Asia, Blacks in Africa. I do know one thing though. Mixed people are beautiful people.

I like my women like I like my coffee.

Cheap?
