There's nothing wrong with agreeing, but try to give a little reason to why you feel the same as the person you agree with.

I'm for interracial marriages. I know for sure I'm not going to marry any thai person. I mean, we're all people, so why should race stop us from marrying one another?

my friend said something to the affect that there's something weird about it. i looked at him funny and a little confused cuz im mix. good for him that he can be honest, but come on, you're friends with a f**king mixed person... does that make any sense?

I'm perfectly fine with them.

There's another topic like this, but it's almost three years old. :F

phht aint nothing wrong with interracial marriage.
My girlfriend's chinese, and I'm as white as they come. Some people have preferences for different races, or just like certain people. That's not gonna do much to destroy diversity.
A lot of people would prefer to stick to their own race. I know most of my friends prefer their own race, and socially that's what happens most. Sure society can change and like everything become a normality and accepted, but I still find it hard to believe that diversity will disappear due to a seemingly rare occurrence.

Recessive and dominant genes!

I'm for interracial marriages too. I mean, it's human nature to like people who look like you, but that's only one part of human attraction.

I have a lot of mixed friends and they are proud of their different backgrounds. And I know I'm not going to marry an Asian dude. Sorry, but I just can't. (My parents think otherwise... <_<)

And, I don't know about you all, but from what I've seen, there are more attractive biracial people than people who marry within their own "race." But that's just me. *shrugs*

Marriage is a choice made by two who are getting married. If they want to marry outside of race then good for them.

"If everybody married someone from a different race then in one generation there would me be no prejudice." -Tracy (Thirteen)

Marriage is about love and love shouldn't have anything to do with race. woo, i'm biracial, so yes i support interracial marriage 100%(even if i wasn't i still would).

I'm not entirely for interracial marraiges. There are some races I wouldn't dare dating. Call it racism but I assure you that it isn't. It's about culture and my family.
Months ago, I'd have said 'I'm totally for it'. I'm not ... not exactly. I can't see myself bringing an Asian home.

I'd rather stick to my race (I've found this new attraction towards them). But I'm sure that anyone who isn't Asian / Muslim has a fair chance of fitting in my family.

Love is love, colors are just that, something that only matters to artist, not races =]

go for who you love.

I definitly say go for it if you love someone. I am half hispanic and have american. I dont care if you marry within your race or anyone that is not your race. If you love them you love them.

Nothing is wrong with it as long as you love them

Yes, I know. We are all different, yadi yada. It doesn't matter. Number one, I wouldn't dare date ANYBODY whom I KNOW is going to cause friction in the family. Prevention is better than cure.
I won't throw myself into a fire if I know it's going to burn me ... if not kill me.

Wouldn't having an Asian and a Caucasian have a baby, creating a new "hybrid" race, actually increase diversity? (Taking it back to that discussion about diversity.)

Yes.

two cultures makes one sexy child.

Isn't there enough diversity? Scratch that. If I'm going to have kids, I'm not going to be thinking 'I must increase diversity'. Bull. I'd rather think 'My baby must be loved' and all the shit mothers think about.

Anyway, if marrying someone from a different race suits you / makes you happy ... sure. I'll pass.

Exactly.

i dont think that there is anythign wrong with interaccial marriages. but if there were two guys that were exactly the same except for the fact that one was of my race and one was not, i would choose the one of my race. simply because things would be easier with family. it would be better to communicate and stuff. but someone falls in love with someone that is not of their race, then i say go for it. race, religon, or anything else (like disability) wouldnt play a drastic role in my life. but i will be factored in because i also would like to thing of simplicity.

*sigh*


Anyways, I'm completely for them. I'm white and my girlfriend's chinese. 1 year 3 months + too.

lol, they sure do.

I see nothing wrong with interracial marriages....well it is probably because i am like 6 different races myself.(father is 3/4 korean and 1/8 italian and 1/8 german my mother is black, irish and native american). i don't think race should matter when it comes to love or marriage or really anything at all

Yess! Anywho as i stated before im all for interacial dating/relationships/sex.

i have a friend whos dating a jamaican and shes whiter than paper.

i also have an irish friend BORN AND RAISED dating 100% born and raised puertorican (boy are they funny)

then i have my parents my dad's from mars and my mom from cuba. what a mix huh?

JUST kidding shes cuban/lebanese and my dad is israeli.

were a circuss!

Isn't there only one race,
the human race?

i think that is basically all needed to be said
i support interracial marriages,

.

agreed
and that would include family
i love my family but if they had problem with it they would either just need to get over it or i'd say we just wouldn't talk anymore and that would be fine with me.

I still support my earlier post: I am not for interracial marriages.

im for, it shouldn't matter to anyone but the two people involved in the relationship

Go you!

agreed.

in the end, the majority of people won't give shit if u support their relationship or not

it may not be ur personal preference, but why not support them? i don't get why anyone wouldn't

Why should I support them? I have nothing against them, I'd never judge them hell I've dated outside my race for a large part of my life but now I'm older, I don't think it's the best thing for ME to do. I DON'T GIVE A SHIT.

I could care less about whom you date. Really ... dude, I is not racist.

^^ I see what Sandra's saying, and I believe that you're not racist.

It just has never mattered to me what color my boyfriends have been. I've dated from all colors of the rainbow here.

But I can understand what Sandra's saying

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

For.

Steven's white.

There's nothing wrong with marrying someone you love. ;]

Filipino/Mexican babies are hawt.

Definitely for. Besides- mixed kids are always cute.

Whitanese kids ftw!

BLASIAN BABIES.

I agree with a lot of y'all, I'm for interracial marriage. I would explain it but I feel I'll be repeating things.

woot so most girls really do prefer black guys ?if there interested in becoming interacial especially azns? i wonder why i have so many azn girlfriends!

omg how can you say no when you could create something as beautifull and sexy as SARINA hahaha wow you're really pretty =)

hahaha wow
shes mine

hahaha im sure u guys would make another one =p lol jk

YES!
we're gonna make about 27
and then probably slow down

haaha my lil bro would be happy.

Like most people i agree with the concept of like whoever you like , race shouldn't be a matter.
My Family is of Hispanic descent and my cousins , and siblings have all mixed children. We have Irish ,Italians , Polish , Puerto Ricans , Ecuadorians and Spaniards in our Family and it hasn't been a problem to anyone. I mostly dislike pregidous people.

Go mixed people !

Interracial marriages don't bother me.
I think it's cool that people bring different cultures together.
Plus, interracial kids are good looking. ;]

I mean, it is somewhat unusual to see, but this isn't the 1800s anymore.
It's the 21st century. Things have changed.

Ok Ok, this is getting really boring. Almost everyone is for interracial marriages. So it isn't much of a debate rather an opinion giving thread.

Does anyone want to actually have a real debate about this, without repeating that "if you love someone, it doesnt matter what color they are?" Because I'm ready to go.

I could take the against side (despite being for) if you want to debate it *shrug*

Let's see.

It ruins diversity. Gets rid of individualism. Integrates cultures and as previously stated makes things less diverse. Man not too much to argue on this.

People won't fully understand the other culture, which could lead to hardships, misunderstandings, and unrest.

People could be more loyal to their culture than their partner and do things beneficial for their culture at the detriment of their partner.

Ok, Im more than willing to be for it in an intelligent manner.

Give me like an hour though, I've got some stuff to do at work first.
