Me too...I actually lost my virginity to the a Persian girl, and dated her for a month, and it didn't even register to me that she was another 'ethnic group' until six months later...as silly as that sounds, I was having a discussion with some of our mutual friends, and the topic of minorities came up, and they mentioned her....I honestly didn't even think of it until then.

People are people.

Personally, I find it sad that this is even an issue. Goes to show you that we haven't progressed as far as we think we have.

No, I don't have a problem with it. Skin color is a non issue with me.

As a comment to my vote: I'm what US-Americans strangely call "Caucasian" and had what you'd also call a "Coloured American" or whatever girlfriend the year I lived in Philadelphia. T'was great... What the heck is this question about anyway?

Inter-racial relationships isn't a taboo in my book. It's a matter of preference. Older generations that were raised during the early ages of American history or whatever have opened this opportunity of democracy for us to be one as whole from it's fragments or human diversity just as the total is the sum of the parts.

Just to note, there maybe factions that opposes this type of infrastructre just as there are terrorists or extremist as the way to settle differences. Anything in the bible that is taken litterally may be hazardous if a middleman has control of it. Words and conscious are powerful entity that causes fear for the vulnerable minds indeed.

Sorry, I went off on a tangent. Basically, the sword of choice is sharp, but the sword of humanity if blunt. Ack. Okay. Forget it. Plain english, I meant your choice can pierce someone's heart. But your oath to yourself will not kill you, unless you vow to kill yourself.

I'm White and my husband (Primal) is Black. We have lived in Kansas, Iowa and Oklahoma. Which would you think is the worst? Oklahoma? No way... it was Iowa. We were yelled at and chased in our car once there and always got hateful looks whenever we went anywhere. We were in college there and the small town girls used to ask me dumb ass questions about him. They had literally never known anyone who was black and it was just a curiosity thing. What was funny is I have never dated anyone but him, so I couldn't even tell them about the comparisons they were looking for. Real example: No I DON'T know what it's like to kiss a white guy. Would it really be fucking different?

So I guess it's pretty clear where I stand on the subject. We have been through a lot together but it's never made me want to quit. I have always personally been attracted to men with darker skin, hair and eyes. But that was Italians, Asians, Latinos, and those white men that had dark hair and eyes. My brother has had 2 Latina wives but currently is married to a blonde American woman. So we both have a thing for dark haired people apparently, but both our parents are white. It's just personal preference.

(This was long, sorry! This topic is close to my heart.)

The majority of my relationships have either been interracial or intercultural (dating a scotswoman, for instance), but I attribute this to growing up overseas, so I've never really been intrigued by someone who has grown up in cookie-cutter, homogenized America. In fact, exploring each other's cultures is one of my favorite parts of dating someone from a different culture/race.

What's the point in asking this question and then excluding any answer except positive? Why ask why if you don't want to know?
You've set this question up as if you're interested in an exchange of ideas, but then refuse to allow any answer that doesn't agree with you.
If you just wanted to give the members here a place to pat themselves on the back for being so open-minded, congratulations, you've succeeded. But it's not really a discussion if there's no opposing viewpoint to consider.

To answer the question, I don't give a shit one way or the other. It's not my place to either approve or disapprove of other people's relationships. Stick yer dick wherever you want, just keep it away from me (and the kids).
