I'm totally not for racism. I have met a wonderful guy who is polite, funny, cute, and very talented. I really like him, but my dad hates the fact that he is of a different race. My dad was raised to think that all people of a different race are not acceptable to be friends/have a relation ship with that person. My dad's side of the family is against a lot of my dissicions and my grandmother calls people who date people with a different race "color blind", but my mom's side is all for everything I do and don't judge by first impression or appearance.

So, what are your thoughts on different race relationships?
Do you think it is wrong to be with a person of a different race?
Do you think people get made fun of for dating a person of a different race quite often?
Would you ever date a person of a different race?

I know that sometimes some people get made fun of, or if they have kids, their kids get made fun of for having two parents of a different race (around here anyway). I do think it is completely wrong though.

I see no problem with race relations.
love is love regardless of its exterior.

and for getting made fun for it, I know my whole school is basically okay with it. Like sure, it doesn't happen a lot, but I can't imagine anyone making a big deal out of it. actually me and my friends were just talking about this, and my friend was telling me how she's only attracted to african americans and she's white. and everyone just sort of continued on in their conversations and didn't make a big deal out of it...

but I know my family would make an issue out of it. not my immediate, but like my grandma and my aunts and uncles. They all live in a very small town in northern minnesota. And my grandma is like ninety something.
and it wouldn't even be mean things, just comments that people would consider offensive.
but personally, as much as it disturbs me when they makes comments, I know that I have to take into account thier society and how they grew up and that's its extremely different from mine.

I think as long as you love the other person, what other people think or say about it is irrelevant

I actually do really like this one guy who's of different race than me. I doubt if anything would every happen, but it has nothing to do with race.

I'm a little leery on this thread.

Could this not go in the racism thread, as the reason behind ridicule to inter-racial couples is racism?

You know I like to think that I see people with different color skin as just people. We really are all just people you know? If you ask me diff. race relationships are just like having a relationship with another person. See my point? Try telling your dad that(if you think he'll really listen to you and hold a civil conversation with you about the matter)

racist people really annoy me because were all people in the end no matter where we might have come from in the first place were all the same and so what if we look different
not all people of the same race look the same anyhow you get fat people skinny people tall people it makes just as much sense to not date somebody cause theyre tall then cause therye the wrong race
as for dating somebody of another race i wouldnt have a problem with and if i did have a problem then im sure id get my ass kicked cause im kinda going out with an asian girl now

I use to go through a bunch of shit when I was younger for having parents that were of different races. I hated it when my mom would come eat lunch with me at school and everyone would ask me "Who the hell is that white lady?" But I'm over that now and I think that interracial relationships are great. = ]

Interracial couples are the same as every other couple.
I don't know how many times I have to say this,
but love isn't about race, sex, age (when it's legal) or any other physical difference.
It's about the passion you feel for another person.

Two of my sisters have children with black men (we are caucasion)
and my other sister is dating a Hasian man.
One of my sisters had a child with a black man, but when the relationship didn't work out, she started dating a Puerto Rican.
They are expecting a child at the end of the month.
I see nothing wrong with their relationships.
They are in love,
and there is nothing wrong with being in love.
My necies and nephews are beautiful,
and have loving, caring parents.

As long as you're in love,
it doesn't matter what you look like,
or where you come from.

There is nothing wrong at all with dating a person from another race. I'm not white but since I'm totally in luv with Gerard, people say I want to be white. I'm happy with what I am. If you find somebody of a different race attractive, go for it, don't give a shit what any else thinks.

I don't think there's anything wrong with different race relationships.
It's just having a serious relationship with someone of a different skin color.
People shouldn't make such a big deal out of it, and should really grow up.
People are people, and love is love no matter what.

My boyfriend is mexican and I'm white, so I don't think anything is wrong with it!

We do get a lot of stares and occasionally rudecomments when we are out, but it's always from older people. I think it's because they grew up in a different time when it wasn't as acceptable. We just try to ignore it because they aren't living our lives so it shouldn't matter. It is hard sometimes though because words do hurt.

Just because a person has a different skin color then you doesn't mean that they still aren't a person. Some people think differently and are unfortunately living a sad life. There are no superior races, but some people still think that way. Our generation is helping to change that, but it will never go away.

I don't see anything wrong with dating a person from a different race... Your both human. The only difference is his race. Big deal ?

^^^ exactly, we're all human, so why is race so important? All that really matters is that you love the person and are happy together =)

My husband and I are of different race from each other and my family, mainly my parents and aunts and uncles, were not very happy about it but, since we are still married after almost 2 years, you can see that I really didn't care what they thought. They've warmed up to him eventually though. Mwa ha ha.

I think if you really love someone (not obsess or stalk or lust), nothing else should matter like race or age or missing limbs.

Besides, racially-hybrid babies grow up to be hot so my future son or daughter is going to be such a pimp ^__^
