I think I understand where Tres is coming from. I admit it, when I see a black man and a white woman, a little voice asks "is he dating her because he likes her, or does he have just want to check off the white box? Does he not date black women at all, or is this a "real" relationship?" Of course, this is none of my business and I will not know the answer, so I shrug it off and go about my business. But I am interested in the motivations about why people get together. Are they shallow or deep, or somewhere in between? I guess the same thing could be said about only dating pretty girls. Whats wrong with girls who are only average in looks? What caused the initial attraction? Appearance has a lot to do with it.
