    I'm confused how this made it to part 2.
    This doesn't seem to be an issue to me? What exactly is bad about interracial relationships?
    They are the same species and the only difference is the colour of their skin... So I am not sure I am following.

    I personally have nothing against them, and have no idea why I would.

    My husband is black and honestly., IDGAF what anyone thinks. I was taught to see in color, not black and white.

    People, eventually, "will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character"

    But until then, topics like this will appear.

    I'm in an interracial marriage, my brothers are as well...my parents are also an interracial couple. In our family there are English, Portuguese, Indo-Canadian, Japanese and Kenyan heritages. Pretty sweet, I think:)

    I am currently in one and I am going to marry him next October. I have no problem with them. I am a mix of black and japanese, and my fiance is white (mixed of german and irish) and I could care less what people think. I love him and he loves me uncondionally. I don't see the big deal with it. When I was in college it was all about the black guys dating white girls and being deemed "players," but when a black woman does it, all we get is how we're disgracing our race and how it's not right. GET OVER YOURSELVES! My own mother even asked me why I date white men, instead of black men. I have dated black men and they were the biggest idiots and I have dated white men who were complete idiots. Stupidity does not discriminate based on race. I just happen to be in love with a man who is white. Big deal! When you grow up in po-dunk Indiana, and go to schools where it is 99% white, then you can't necessarily only choose black men, etc.

    I've only ever dated white guys (just because I tend to be more attracted to them and because I've lived in England fore the majority of my life in a very Caucasian-heavy area), and I'm Indian. I have no issue with it whatsoever, but I know the Indian community can be so racist, when my boyfriend and I are walking around in public, Asian people (meaning Indians, Pakistanis etc) will stare and stare and stare and it really pisses me off. Not to mention some Indians living in India have such disgusting views about these things, and just about white men and women in general. Really annoys me.

    Date whoever the hell you want, and forget about race. As long as you two are compatible, and you are treated with respect and dignity, and as long as you reciprocate that, then it's fine in my books. I have no issue with same-sex relationships either, all in favour of people dating whoever they want to date.

    Because it is also a social networking site and this is the chit-chat, fun, and games message board.

    Welcome to MFP

    I think this is a completely inappropriate topic for this forum. We're here to lose weight, not battle it out over whether or not we think interracial couples are okay. Aren't we all fighting for freedom and equality?

    Well, being it is posted in the Chit Chat forum and not the main weight loss thread, any topic is ok to discuss and talk about.

    If you ONLY want to talk about losing weight, then maybe Chit-chat, fun, and games is not the place for you.

    Yeah, I don't see why race matters. If they're hot, they're hot! I do tend to be more attracted to darker men, but that doesn't exclude race. I guess I'm just not attracted to pasty things like myself!
