Interracial Dating Options

[*iNyCxShoRT*]

First, do you agree with people dating outside their race?
Of course, I mean you can't stop them. Or else there wouldn't be any mixed children in the world. And that would suck

Do you feel if they do, they are sort of betraying their own race?
No I don't, they could date anyone they want. I mean some people may like chinese girls for a certain reason, some may like blondes cause they're. But they have their own reasons.

Would you ever date someone who wasn't of your background?
Yeah I have, I dated a latino and a white guy

[loljuliana]

i dont find anything wrong with it. i'm chinese; i dont stick to chinese people. i dated a korean and someone who was from tibet. sometimes i perfer someone who isnt chinese. but my parents wont allow it.

[Krateguy09]

I haven't dated a girl that wasn't caucasian, but I'm not against doing it.

[starlette]

to start, let me point out that I have never found someone who is mixed with the exact same races as me and nothing else, so everyone I date its interracial. Second of all, I'm the product of interracial dating, so if anyone has a problem with it, they have a problem with my existence as a whole, and you can go screw yourself upsidedown. Jerk.


Now! Heres my feeling about everything. I think that being multiracial in a family of german people has really given me a lot of insight on how the world works. My cousins father told her shes not allowed to date black guys. That hurts because once again, I would not exist is it werent for my mother being racially color blind. Thats hypocritical and it makes me feel excluded. I mean, all people have the same equipment, whether black, white, italian, chinese, korean, indian etc. Why does the outside color matter? It all works the same way. I think true love has no color, so why should the color of who you love matter. I say love who you love. I've dated korean, black, white, and a half black half white guy. I've been sttracted to all sorts of guys, italian, african, and hispanic. the lists go on. I have an advantage because I learned from the beginning that skin doesnt matter. Even if I had to learn on my own because the people around me didnt seem to think so. I'm actually really impressed at all the open minded people on cB. yay for y'all.

[crocodilo]

I completely agree with interracial dating, after all we are all humans

I am white but would not want to date the majority of white girl I know because of their culture, their way of life, their norms and values
The white girls in my college, in fact my town all seem to be greedy, selfish, slutty, ignorrant, arrogant, self centered, uncool, indolant drunkards who will screw any jerk. They have no morals and are really horrible and most seem to have an ego problem and think they are too good for most people. They all idolize these pathetic, slutty, good for nothing celebrities such as Paris Hilton and Britney Spears and try to be little slappers like them.I hate everything about these girls mentality and attidudes.

However, in my college I know some very nice, very beautiful, very cool asian girls who are not sluts and do have good morals and who don't mess me aroung and don't treat me like shit. I can have proper conversations with these girls.

So this answers your question, of couse I would date girl of another race, they are my preference

[pinayprincess]

it sounds kinda racist.. but i get you... umm well i know fa sure that im not gonna date anybody whos filipino [my race] i mean, not that i dnt love em lol.. theres just NO filipino dudes i know! so far, ive dated spanish guys [and still dating =) ] but i dont think its wrong.. i mean its cool b/c you get to experience more new thing with another guy thats not the same race as you.. you know?

[PrettyBrownEyez3]

Thats just totally racial. You can't choose who you fall for. And if he only dates his kind, he'll have a smaller option, and probably end up with someone who he doesn't love, and will have a horrible future. It's how he was raised. I've dated outside of my race- there is absolutley nothing wrong with it, to me.
The annoying thing is, they're being racial about who they allow their son to be with, or him himself, with dating only his kind, that when people are racial to them about being Indian, they will be the first to complain. Thats hypocritical. People like that are so ignorant.

[PyroRei]

Well to answer your question...

First, do you agree with people dating outside their race? Of course I agree, you can't help who you like. You just like them!
Do you feel if they do, they are sort of betraying their own race? Uh... NOO
Would you ever date someone who wasn't of your background? YES, i am!!

I'm dating an Indian guy and I'm filipino. who cares but our parents i don't give a crap. I like him!

[visualfusion]

First, do you agree with people dating outside their race? No I do not. I'm not saying don't do it because 1.) I have no control over others and 2.) If the feelings are there... there isn't much to do to stop it.

Do you feel if they do, they are sort of betraying their own race? A slight bit. It's pretty much saying their own race isn't good enough for them so they have to look torwards others.

Would you ever date someone who wasn't of your background? Date maybe. Marry, no.

[Paradox of Life]

^ I'm not going to preach to you like "OMFG, BUT LOVE IS LOVE!!" I know what you mean. It's kind of complicated. It seems like naturally people feel more comfortable around their own race which is why interracial marriages are so non-mainstream.

Personally, I think interracial marriages and dating are fine. It's up to the person. I think the biggest problem is successfully making a lifelong committment and that shouldn't affect anyone else.

And all my relationships were interracial.. and unsucessful. But you can't really say anything is successful at my age.

[aznplayaz]

First, do you agree with people dating outside their race? Yeah getting to know other cultures would be a good thing.
Do you feel if they do, they are sort of betraying their own race? If they choose to date someone with a different race thats fine. My sister's boyfriends black and my other sisters boyfriend is white and im filipno.
Would you ever date someone who wasn't of your background? Yeah i would i am actually getting to know this girl she is white.

[HappyHeart]

There is nothing wrong with interracial dating. I just prefer the same race dating because there are barely any "purebloods" left

[megan_x3]

I think there was a topic about this but I just want to add more to it.

Me, I've never dated anyone who was Portuguese or Caucasian. I've dated only Black and Hispanic guys. I find nothing wrong with it.
I have this friend who is Indian and he says he will never date anyone who wasn't Indian. And his parents don't allow it either.

i have dated some other race beside chinese. i doubt my parent will like it though. so im not planning to tell them until i've met some asians and "pureblood" chinese. as w hat GetMiNE_GetYOURS said. sounds like what malfoy and ppl in h.p will say.

lol yea I couldn't think of any other word

[mwahxd]

i m fine wit it and no i dont feel like i m betraying my race and yes i would date someone who isn t from my background. use my current bf for example he is my first bf btw and he s viet and i m chinese. u cant choose who u fall for. its totally fine

[whomps]

No, I don't think dating out of your race is any form of betrayal. That's a horrible thought.

[xFaith]

Of course. im kinda suprised that theres a topic about this, because i dont think races have anything to do with love. I mean, you fall in love with someones soul, not someones "race" :/

[Aoiro]

Yes, I do agree with people dating outside their race.
I mean, c'mon now, they're in love with each other.
Nothing wrong with their skin colour!

No, I do not think that are at all.
It's their choice.

And yes, definately!
Why would I not?
I have before anyway.

[me1issaaaa]

I think it's fine. My boyfriend's half French, half ... I don't even know. His mom's from the Virgin Islands, so... whatever that ethnicity is called.

That's kind of bad that I don't even know what they're called. Caribbean? Who knows.

[Ington]

Maggie is Vietnamese. I'm Jewish.

I honestly think nothing is wrong with this, and we're fine. My parents however, will literally disown me if I married or even dated outside of my religion. So I go out without telling them.

Sigh, it gets hard after a while.

[starlette]

so since I'm half black, 1/4 chinese. and 1/4 italian you are saying that if I date someone who is not the exact above, that I am betraying my race? thats bullshit. Why is it betrayal? Why isnt it just preference. I mean, the only family I know is white, so should I only date white people? I mean honestley, its not saying you think your own race isnt good anough for you. Its saying, I find this person attractive, or charming, or whatever, and I want to spend the rest of my life with them. Regardless or color. I'm not saying, ugh, I hate my race, I need to find someone thats not like me. thats stupid. And if you think of it that way, then you are stupid. Open your eyes and take a look around you. We all started from the same place. SO what does it matter if we look diffenert now. We only look different because our ancestors moved to different parts of the world, and spent a lot or no time in the sun. Thats it. If you stick us in a fire, we all burn the same way. And if you cut us, we all bleed the same blood. So how is it betrayal? Just think about that. Its doesnt make sense. Are you telling me that if you hit it off with a person, of another race, and fell in love, you would date, them, but marry someone you didnt really love just because they are your same race? You are going to live a miserable life buddy. OH!! and lets say I'm black for a point. I personally don't like guys with big lips. Most black men have big lips. So am I betraying my race because I don't want to wake up every morning staring at a pair of big lips for the rest of my life. uurrrggghhh. I could go on all day.

[lexaa621]

wtf how can you "betray your race"?

sorry i just had to say that.

i'm white. i've liked hispanic, asian/filipino, white, and mixed girls. it doesnt matter. my gf is half chinese half caucasion.

yeah.

[inquisitive_]

so since I'm half black, 1/4 chinese. and 1/4 italian you are saying that if I date someone who is not the exact above, that I am betraying my race?  thats bullshit.  Why is it betrayal?  Why isnt it just preference.  I mean, the only family I know is white, so should I only date white people?  I mean honestley, its not saying you think your own race isnt good anough for you.  Its saying, I find this person attractive, or charming, or whatever, and I want to spend the rest of my life with them.  Regardless or color.  I'm not saying, ugh, I hate my race, I need to find someone thats not like me.  thats stupid.  And if you think of it that way, then you are stupid.  Open your eyes and take a look around you.  We all started from the same place.  SO what does it matter if we look diffenert now.  We only look different because our ancestors moved to different parts of the world, and spent a lot or no time in the sun.  Thats it.  If you stick us in a fire, we all burn the same way.  And if you cut us, we all bleed the same blood.  So how is it betrayal?  Just think about that.  Its doesnt make sense.  Are you telling me that if you hit it off with a person, of another race, and fell in love, you would date, them, but marry someone you didnt really love just because they are your same race?  You are going to live a miserable life buddy.  OH!! and lets say I'm black for a point.  I personally don't like guys with big lips.  Most black men have big lips.  So am I betraying my race because I don't want to wake up every morning staring at a pair of big lips for the rest of my life.  uurrrggghhh.

I really hope that you are not talking to me in specific. And if you are, then you've got it all wrong. I only asked the questions because there are so many people who do think dating someone from another race is a betrayal. I heard it from a couple of people. I, personally, think its very stupid and it shows how close-minded some people are. I only wanted to ask the people on here. I don't date anyone of my race. I don't think there is anything wrong with it. We're all people, just like you said.

[lexaa621]

^ she wasnt talking to you.
i'm pretty sure her response was directed towards "visualfusion".

[*mzkandi*]

I have always dated who I like, regardless of race. If someone has a problem with it, then its their problem.
