Would you ever consider dating...

KOL40

outside of your race?

I have only dated outside of my race. There is an explanation:

I have always went to a black school since middle school, and my high-school was about 94% black. The only white girl that I knew was my sister. I mean, I am from the south and all, but not THAT far south!!!

Anyway, that being said I would like to say how i feel about interacial relationships. I think it doesn't matter, and those who think it does are stupid beyond description. I don't care weather my girls skin is milk white, charcoal black, or anything in between. I feel that all that matters is that she makes me happy, and I feel good about myself when i am with her.

What do you guys think? Have you ever? Would you consider it? How would your family feel?

Debate.
 
I have no issues with it at all.


I do however note that I find girls of certain races to be more attractive on average than others. That's just personal preference though, it's not like I wouldn't date someone for being different.

I don't see how this is even an issue for anyone who isn't racist.

I know people who will date any race. I also know people who will date any race except black. They swear they are not racist and claim that they just have never been sexually attracted to a black girl. Sounds a little sketchy to me though...
 
Well, I guess I can understand not being attracted to most people of a race and not being racist I guess... kinda.

Yeah, same here. I don't find black / African American / whatever politically correct term females attractive? Does that make me racist? Does it make my genes racist genes (lol)?

Honestly, there's no good way to answer this question. If yes, good for you. If no, either you are racist or you are perceived to be racist. You can't say who you would date just based on a race, anyways. Choosing who to date based on race, would be racist in fact.
 
No problem for me.

I've never really thought of people that are black/chinese whatever different race attractive, but I'm not racist.

Im against racism to be honest.
 
Been there, done that.

Went well for a few years before she went all crazy in college. She had some serious rebellion-against-parental-control and self-esteem issues. It was kind of infuriating at times.

To be honest though, I'd probably do it again given the choice.

I don't get attracted or repulsed based on anyone's race, although I am particularly fond of several physical qualities more strongly correlated with Asians.

Kindness, compassion, and intelligence are all big starters for me.
 
I don't think I would opt not to do it based exclusively on race but I don't think I can recall a time I've found someone of a difference race than me sexually attractive which is always a positive in relationships.

It'd have to be a special set of circumstances, I guess.
 
There's a difference between tolerance and sexual attraction. I am not sexually attracted to black women. I would never date a black woman.
 
Overall, I'm sexually attracted to fewer Indian (the country) women than I am Irish women or English women or Chinese/Japanese/nearby-country-ese women. But there are still Indian women out there who are attractive. And if the sexual attraction thing was removed, the what's left becomes a choice of either being a bigot or not being a bigot. Because even if you aren't sexually attracted to black women in general, I'm pretty damn sure that there's going to be at least one black woman out there who you are going to find hot.

In general, I like women.
 
i never really understood racism, its never been a significant distinction from person to person for me

im just attracted to who im attracted to, cant explain it, so i dont question it
 
I had a cambodian girlfriend in high school and it never meant more than she was cambodian and I wasnt.
 
My girl is not from the same race as me and we are cool about it.

Well i find white chicks more attractive. And less attracted to Asian and black girls, BUT there could be exceptions.

I don't know anyone that dates people based on race. I know people that wouldn't want to be with someone from a different country though (on a serious relationship i mean, or marriage), but because of some other factors that doesn't have anything to do with the differences.

Exactly.

I'm all for anti-racism, but when the overriding message here seems to be that i'm racist because I don't find a race attractive I can't help but feel that we're failing as a species.

P.S. This is going to head like the homosexuality topic: Am I biologically pre-disposed to finding some other races attractive? I believe so. I don't choose who I find attractive, white or not.

This guy pretty much sums up my stance. Like a couple of people in here, I generally don't find black women attractive (although there have been exceptions), but that is an issue of attraction rather than race.
 
No problems. I used to not really like many black women, but now it's really just whoever's cute. I have stopped dealing with asian chicks, at least for the most part, recently though. Does anyone else find that asian girls tend to be the most high-maintenance?
