Interracial dating and marriage is fine. We are all equal and shouldn't think higher of ourselves because we're white. I would love to date a colored person.

My rents don't like it. They're fine with me having friends from different races, but as far as a love interest, they'll be pisses. They think zebras and tigers shouldn't mixed stripes, feel me?

Interracial dating isn't bad...I am a daughter of interracial marriage. My father is black and my mother is Tahitian...they love each other for who they are. If you want to date outside of your race..then do it. Just because your parents say no...doesn't mean it is right. Listen to your own heart. And also, no offense but your mother is ignorant on interracial dating...She is just probably scared. She just wants to protect you but the world is different now and you have to listen to your own better judgement. Believe in your own choices. Smile

Personally I can't stand the criticism and hypocrisy that poor interracial couples have to deal with amongst family, friends and the general public. My question really was, as I didn't state too clearly (and I apologise), is:

What you think of interracial dating, does that interfere with your actions? If so, why? If not, why?

It's not a huge deal to me, but I believe that God made the races distinct so they should stay that way.

Remeber that you're not only marrying the flesh.You are also marrying his soul.And if your mother is willing to let a physical trait stand in the way of the relationship then maybe you could teach her something.

Both my parents claim to be fully open-minded, amenable even, toward relationships (of any sort) between people of opposite race.

It's a load.

In general, they're okay with a young black man befriending a young white girl. They pride themselves on their tolerance of todays changing society.

Just don't let it come close to home.

It would be beyond my parents' abilities to allow me to have a black boyfriend...ever.
My mom's even stated before, "Oh, honey, that's so silly...you'd never want to date a black boy in college because the relationship would have no future. The two of you could never think of marrying eachother!"
...as for my father, well...My boyfriend and I would never be allowed to attend family gatherings as a couple.

I'm a sucker for wanting to please my parents.
I'll have to find other ways to send the message that I, myself, completely support marriage between black and white. My son or daughter won't ever feel the pressure to stay within their race...as I do.

My advice: Go for it! Do it for those of us who lack the courage you'll be displaying. Think how amazing it will feel to marry someone you deeply love and chose above everyone else...rather than settling for someone who matches a
parent-approved profile.

anyone else out there tired of fake parents?

My mom doesn't like black people to much. I mean she doesn't want to admit it when I do confront her and ask her about it. However, I have proof that she doesn't like blacks and I know she wouldn't improve of me dating a black person. Whites, I'm not sure about her improving of me dating them neither but I have a feeling she won't. However, I might be wrong. Puerto Ricans and Mexicans is fine by her though, that is for sure.

Heh, I'm just not going to have a boyfriend.

Bye n Have a nice day

I can guarantee you I would date Beyonce Knowles in a heartbeat. That woman is probably the hottest black chic I've ever seen but haven't seen (in person).

MMman.

There was a girl that went to my school who was black and she was the cutest girl I swear. People looked at me real, real weird (guys mostly).

But my parents would not ever approve of my sisters dating a black guy - or a hispanic guy. I dunno, it's just that unwritten "thing" I guess. Eh.

I don't see a problem with it at all! Why should it matter? God made us all as humans, and sure, maybe we look "different" but it's what's inside that counts!
