I think people who are against interracial dating are just shallow and ignorant. It is soo NOT about the skin color or ancestory that defines the relationship. My mother is white, and my father is black and they love each other. When my mom saw my dad, she didn't think something like "should i talk to him? I mean, he's black and all...", what she thought was "oh my that man is attractive" and vice versa with my dad. Now, i'm dating a white guy and i'm so in love. Neither of our parents have a problem with it and neither should anyone else. But I don't care what anyone else says really 'cause my boyfriend is soo awesome. Sorry, i'm just so excited about being in love for te first time.

i must say that although idealy in this day and age racism would not be a factor...it still is. people in interracial relationships seem to have a little more drama on their plates at some point in the relationship. however, if you really care about the person then you shouldnt care what others think of your relationship. i must say that it has caused quite a bit of conflict in my family since they are all rednecks and although they arent kkk members they still dont believe in interracial relationships. however, i just recently got out of a 2 year relationship with someone of a different race and although the end was heartbreaking i wouldnt take back the 2 years for anything. hopefully in the years to come it will not be a factor, at least i pray every night it wont considering that i am about to give birth to a child of mixed race. and for the record, i dont think it is ruining the heritage at all because she will have a part of two cultures so if anything she is getting double the culture of everyone else. i dont think race should have anything to do with who you date...its the personality that wins in the end and besides having some differences helps keep the relationship interesting!

I belive that dating interracially is a beautful thing. I have dated guy which were from another country I am a creole decendent however I am still a black perosn. At my high school there are blacks there who are no interest to me the majority of my friend come from Asia Peru iraq Mexico and some USA all of them are special to me. The black kids at my schoolalways give me and my friends a hard timme because they say I never speak to them the way I see if there is nothingto say why speak. I was not raised the same way they were whemn they look at me they do not see a light skinned women they see a light chocolate skinned women. my friends have always told me about the black guys they like and wonder why I never talk about the black guy that openly show that they like me. If there is any one how would to speak with me about what I have wrote you can contact me at calewis3@student.gc.edu also if you have a question for me please don't wait

I've dated a few guys in middle school and high school.. and all of them were Korean. (btw... I'm Korean). However, I'm in college now and I've started dating this great guy- who's white. Yes.. my very first white guy. We've been together for over eight months now... and even though when we're together, our ethnicity doesn't interfere with directly, our mannerisms tend to prove otherwise.
I am constantly seeing differences between our families. His family is quite loud, friendly... the hugging type. Mine however... is your typical Asian family- need I say more?
I told my parents about him and they weren't really fazed... my dad's sister is married to a white man.. but I could tell my mom wasn't so excited about it. When we talk about him she refers to him as "your friend" in Korean... rather than boyfriend. My dad at least acknowledges that he is my boyfriend.
Another thing is when my boyfriend and I talk about our future. We've been together over 8 months and it seems a little silly to talk about marriage and kids... but it really is fun to talk about. Though we want to instill the same values in our children... the methods we want to take to do so are so different from the other due to his American upbringing and my Korean.
There are times when I feel like it'll get too hard later in the future... and sometimes I want to take the easy way out and just find a Korean guy... but I really love this guy and I hate giving up.. so I'm gonna keep trying and compromising for a happy long relationship with him.

Interacial dating has nothing to do about diversity. It has everything to do about happiness and love. Are you proposing that interacial dating be outlawed? Who cares about heritage. You make me sick.

I know alot about the two big races I draw heritage froom (German/Irish) and am learning to speak German the rest of my heritage is broken down in to such a diluted point it may as well not exist.

That's retarded at the very least. You can have a mixed heritage as do I, and I'm very damn proud of each part of my heritage. And, I know plenty of each country in which my heritage belongs. Do you know a lot about German, if that is your heritage? Traditions? Customs? If you're like most, then you don't. Your "heritage" was erased in history by countless generations of your great great great grandparents whose name and lifestyle you may not even know. Unless your grandparents or parents were of X or Y place, you shouldn't claim to be of Y or X place because you're just another American.

You are not a wild beast. Your identity is not based on your appearance, it's based on yourself.

History cannot be erased regardless of how much humanity will die. There will still be Slavic history, German, Celtic, Ethiopian, etc history and it won't be forgotten. I feel extremely blessed of being multi-racial and knowing a whole lot of each race I fall into, if I was just Scottish or Spanish it'd be boring and plain.

There's this extremely dark-skinned black girl at my school (Shanika) dating one of the whitest guys (his name is John) I've ever seen. He has really light colored blond hair and his skin is the color of paper. They look so contrasted together, one time he was wearing like a white shirt and khakis, and she was wearing a black spandex dress/suit thing, she held up a white piece of paper in front of her (and of course they're all close to eachother) and someone said "Hey, look, it's almost a yin-yang!"

I will forgive you because you are a newbie, but it is not recomendable to revive 2 year old threads.

Also, bushsupporter and his gang of morons is dead, so do not feel anger for them.

Good lord, Bushsupporter. I cannot express how angry some of your statements made me.

"I will not bring up my children to think and feel the way that they want to"

So, you're going to brainwash your children to believe whatever YOU believe, and never let them think or speak for themselves? And of course, they'll have to control their feelings so that they feel what you want them to. Yeah. You sound like you'll be a fan-freaking-tastic parent. Roll Eyes

"Children need direction, they cannot just start life on their own and find the things that they believe, they must have someone to be there and guide them down the right path"

You may not know it, but you personally offended me with that comment. I was raised in a wonderful environment where my parents understood me, and let me be what I wanted to, believe what I wanted to, and think what I wanted to. They still do. I have decided my own beliefs. BY MYSELF. And that is the best thing that my parents could have done. Part of the reasons that children grow up to despise their parents is because most parents force their children into beliefs.

If you ever have children, I fear for their future.

I believe that there is nothing wrong with interacial dating.... I mean if your a christian and you want to raise your child/children as a christian{s} and your in a interacial relationship that's NOT stopping you from raising your child as a christian.... and to me i think that's just an excuse or cover up.... I think that you really are racist, but you just don't want to admitt it to yourself.... {no affence to anyone}
