However you seemed to miss my point so I'll restate it.
Even in those families where interracial dating or marriage is not accepted(black and latino included)it's MORE acceptable for a person to bring home a white person than another race in many cases.

I'd like to chime in on this one with a supporting anecdote. My SO is of Japanese descent, and I've heard her mother discussing with her and her younger sister the exact order of acceptance for various ethnic groups her daughters might date and marry. Japanese is best, but non-Japanese Asians (and there's a specific order for various Asian groups) are also good, whites are acceptable if they are of good quality, Mexicans distasteful, and black boys out of the question. The irrationality of this rank-ordering is so bizarre that it's more acceptable for her daughter to be with a white
woman than a black man.
