- NEW!
Help answer this question below.
I am just happy that when it comes to race I am colorblind. I do draw the line with those green outerspace chicks - thats just not happening LOL
It's all good!
i don't care, everyone is pink on the inside
there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. If two people love each other then thats all that matters
I am not against it at all. It seems like at least in the midwest society is moving on.
I think, regardless, we are all people. Not just a color. And you can't help who you love. It's unconditional.
Why should I care if they're interracial? It is not the outside, but the inside of a person who makes them who they are. And if they love eachother, why should I care. Same thing with homosexuals. If they truly love eachother, I shouldn't think their love toward one another is wrong.
I am part of an interacial couple, as I am white (Irish/Italian) and my girl is Black (Haitian.) When we're in NY, no problems. In florida, we got looks.
I have a black and white striped shirt. It doesn't look too bad...
What business is it of mine?
honestly..it's a non-issue for me...
I have no problem with it at all.
I actually admire people with strong enough conviction and love so that they couldn't care less about wrong conventions and defy prejudice and archaic ideas about ethnicity.
Who cares as long as they treat each other with respect and dignity.America is the Melting Pot.
What is there to think?
If they are nice people, I might enjoy their company.
Their race(s) is/are irrelevant.
I don't think that word should exist i think that they are couples just like any other and theres no reason to feel different about them i find the term racist.
There aren't any races. It is all in your mind.
How do you feel about butter on toast? Jelly on toast? It is no ones business but your own.
If the couple is happy, I really don't care one way or the other.
I have often said that if we want to eliminate racism, then we should encourage interracial marriages until we have completely eliminated all racial distinctions. (Of course, those personality traits that now blame racial differences for all of life's problems would then just find something else to blame like short people or whom ever.) So, those that are in interracial couples are just doing their part to help eliminate racism.
I think people are entitled to love who they choose regardless of what others may think or feel about it if two people of different races are mature enough in their feelings for each other and can handle all the ignorant stares and looks and comments from people who don't understand their attraction to each other then they have the makings of a wonderful relationship My sweetheart was hispanic and I am white we ignored all the ignorant comments andf stares because we loved each other and actually we got more ignorant stares and comments because she was 26 and I was 41 than because of our race differences
No one even notices interracial couples in my high school. Almost half the couples there are interracial, mostly black guys with white girls, I've only seen about three white guys with black girls. I started dating my black boyfriend at the begining of my junior year. A few couples are pregnant, mostly the interracial couples, myself included. I became pregnat at the end of last school year. I'm five months along now. I've yet to hear any negative comments about my situation. I plan on attending school as long as I'm able.
I don't have a problem with them at all. But, if you are thinking about being in one then you need to be prepared for people who don't think it's a good idea.
1) I like different people. Unfortunately the world is full of prejudices.
2) Read the protocol of the Wansee conference to learn what those nazi monsters planed to do with person married with Jews. I just watched a movie about this, it was shuttering.

Not as strongly as some of my fellow Texans...
My opinions is it's none of my business.
My white wife dated African American men almost exclusively before we met and were married. I never had a problem with this knowledge. Since we had our baby girl 3 months ago, I've tried to imagine my reaction if she brought home an African American boyfriend one day, and to be honest, I know I would be fine in front of her, but honestly don't know how I would feel. I hope I would be happy for her, and just thankful she found someone to love her. Time will tell, I guess.
im gunna be completely honest because i think that alot of people on here are afraid of hurting feelings..
I'm not racist against any one group of people
i just dont think that people should date outside their own race... i think it is wrong..
it doesnt matter what race.. i just dont think it is the way things are supposed to be
One of the cool things about living in California is that interracial couples are not out of the ordinary. They're unremarkable, so most people don't stare or act disapproving.
My niece has been married 27 years to an Af-Am who has quite dark skin. They live in Minnesota, and actually they don't get any flak there either. They're active in the community, and their kids will marry whoever their kids decide to marry. Twenty-seven years ago, my niece's marriage was SORT OF unusual, but at the time I wrote her a letter saying pretty much the kind of supportive things people have said in the answers to this questions. Change in the direction of acceptance was already in the cards that long ago.
My nephew-in-law is a great guy. They've been happy.
I'm not totally clear about what race is in the first place...so ther term "interracial" doesn't click with me. If I'm part Cherokee, part Irish, part German...what race does that make me? And why should I really care?
Should not be allowed.
I do not feel about them any differently than any other couples .
They are just people like any others
i am not racist, i honestly dont see the problem with it. We are all human and SHOULD all have the same rights.
If you love someone you are'nt going to give a damn what their skin colour is. you love them for their personality and charm.
3 of my best friends are 'black' but that really doesnt matter, they are the nicest, most generous people i have ever met, and i would not change a thing about them.
my question is why are people against 'black' people, they have hearts, souls and they do have feelings and do fall in love.
go with? do you mean have sex with? Marry?
Of course it is. (sorry. I left out some words in my haste to answer). There is nothing wrong with intermarriage of different cultures and ethnic backgrounds. If there was, I certainly would not be here, nor would my children.
Is it right? LOL, I guess it would depend on who you ask. I don't really have an opinion on it. Love just happens.
hey they're all humans right?
just different in color that doesn't keep them away from each other
my opinion is if ur happy the color of you skin shouldnt matter..
It's perfectly fine.
it makes me happy, and i smile cuz it gives me hope
Writing as an African-American male who has dated Caucasian women and African-American women, I think race (or ethnicity) is less important than culture and background. (I realize that I'm not defining culture or background. Use you best judgment.)
Culture and background tend to intersect along racial lines, hence,some people (not me) might say, it is easier for individuals date other individuals who come from the same background and from a similar culture.
I think you can throw all of these things "out of the window" when looking at culture and background in comparison to socioeconomic status (if I were defining background, socioeconomic status might be one of the factors I would list in "background.")
Anecdotally speaking, I have found that I have related more with certain women who come from the same socioeconomic class level regardless of their ethnicity (or race).
Two factors that must be considered are (1) how your nuclear family feels and (2) Your attitude regarding society's "view" (I understand that this "view" might be different depending on which region of the country you're in.) I think the first factor the most important factor.
I guess, in my own personal opinion, I would conclude that in a society like ours where cultures tend to assimilate into "pop" culture, it really does not matter what your race/ethnicity is so long as the two of you can find some way to connect and be happy together.
fine with me, I have been 1/2 of one more than once
LOVE WHO YOU WANT !! do not pass up on something that could be great cause of what others think !!
I am in Oklahoma and few people look at us funny. We rarely get any funny looks. I am a nurse and our community has accepted us for who we are. He is black male and I am white female. I feel we make good looking couple.
I feel the same way about them as I would feel about any other couple. They are no different to me. Relationships are about the people and their feelings - not about the heritage and their skin color.
Firstly, the concept of race is social, not biological. Isolations of some populations for extended periods led to differentiations in physical attributes of the humans, as different populations adapted to their environments.
As for the social concept of race, I really don't care. I think its a stupid, false construct we use to avoid knowing ourselves by clinging to a group identity. Date whomever you want. I do.
I'm in what you would term an "interracial" relationship. You will not see a single question from me as to how others feel about it, or anything remotely similar. Why? Frankly, because I don't care. What others think of it is irrelevant. I'm not sure why people continue to make their personal relationships the business of others to comment on or judge.
personally I would not be involved in one but, for those who are - it's not my business..whatever floats your boat.
There fine in my book.
as long as both of them are happy, as long as they treat eachother with respect, if they have a solid relationship that is good with me. It really isn't any of my business, i have no say on who is supposed to love who.
Love isn't rasist, love isn't a color, a gender, a person, love is who we love in our hearts.
I don't feel that there is anything wrong with it. What right do people have in judging anyone for having a life partner or spouse that is not of the same race as the other person. We are human beings, with feelings.
It's not a problem for me.
Well im going to break up the line here and say i disagree.it's hard on the children of these couples.the simplest question on a job application and they don't have an answer for it.white? black? asian? they don't know what they are.i have a sister with a mixed child and she goes through hell every day coping with do's and dont's.thou shall not become unequally yolked. so sayeth the lord. i am but one man and im not racist but until they atleast put "human being" on the job applications we will always be classified in races as long as we know what that race is.
My fiance's traditional Chinese family wants to come meet my crazy "All American" white family. Help?
