    Doesn't matter what other people think.

    I don't care APART from when you see 100 year old men with a 20yo Asian bride. That just annoys me.

    who won?

    I was willing to take the fight further than he was. :D

    So you have a tendency towards violence?

    lolz for days on this thread:)

    I'm in the same boat OP! Not with the funky looks but dating interacially. I dated a black guy earlier this year, and now am seeing a wonderful hispanic Antonio Banderas look-a-like. Haters gon hate, let it motivate you to further ooze your loveydovey-ness all over them. Interacial relationships rock:)

    are you saying its cruel to have an interracial child?

    Depends. If you're in a city like London, then no-one is going to bat an eyelid, but if you're living in the countryside somewhere without a significant mixed-race population then not only is the kid going to stand out and perhaps not be able to identify as much with the culture they grow up in, but they might also suffer from a lot of bullying.

    Potential health problems should also be considered. For example, mixed-race people are at a much higher risk of not being able to find a genetic match for an organ transplant, with current technology. I read an article on the subject just a few weeks ago. New technologies are developing to solve that sort of problem, but it's a real issue today.

    Organs? maybe Bone Marrow but the rest of human organs don't quiet work that way, has to do with blood and immunological compatibility.

    The nice thing about interracial relationships is you don't need to use birth control.

    You really changed your screen name to say that? at least make sure it's really offensive or really funny.

    Just a small observation I've had for awhile is that in general has proved to be true. Peeps from the north love black culture but most I've found actually dont like the person. Peeps in the south are general biased against the entire race but love the individual person.

    I know tons if good ole boys who have tons of black friends but they are generally racist. Same goes for the black people being racist of white people but still having white friends down here.

    As twisted as this sounds, I can actually confirm this from personal experience. My two best friends growing up here in Texas were pretty damn racist "good ole boys". And then I have a friend who doesn't particularly like black people but has a black friend he hangs out with often.

    In regards to the OP, yeah I do think its Texas. Very few Asians and a lot of Hispanics so that's why no one really blinks when you're dating one. I guess it is strange no one really reacts to an Asian girl dating a white guy.

    Who I choose to love...(without regard to race or gender) doesn't affect you. Who you choose to love doesn't affect me. I see no problem as long as both are consenting adults.

    (btw...I'm from OK and racism is a live and well here...getting better but still happening)

    Dear Posters,

    I wanted to provide a brief explanation for locking this topic.

    The forum guidelines include this item:

    15. Divisive Topics Are Better Suited For Groups, Not the Main Forums

    Divisive topics, particularly those that seek input from or are relevant only to a select group of users, are better placed within an appropriate Group rather than the Main Forums. For example, topics relevant to only one religion should not be placed on the main forums but rather within a group related to that religion. We reserve the right to move any topic to a relevant public Group which interested members may join if they wish to continue to participate.

    If you would like to review the forum guidelines, please visit the following link:

    At our discretion, this locked thread may be deleted entirely in the near future.
