But can anyone else at least propose some ideas that could be debated as to why interracial marriage is bad?

[dannyordinary]

^ I would think that it would be bad because of just family diffrences
and i'm going to say something now, that might offend people.

This is just an example:

Asian people (older people), usually think that black people, or minorities steal. Recently though, in some parts of the countries, you would see asian girls with black guys, and I'm sure that their parents wouldn't agree (from the Asian side probably..but they make really cute babies, not gonna lie). So I think that would be a negative, because it would split you from your family

Family issues; getting disowned, parents not attending weddings ...

I could come up with more but I'd be a raysist.

Asians ARE minorities so wtf?

But that will all pass in time. Any issues outside of family? All that will pass with time, imo.

Actually.. Asians make up more than half the world's population, and Orientals make up about a quarter of the world's population. Asians are minorities in certain areas but as a whole, they aren't.

In my family, it won't. I'd be the outcast with the bizarre kids, the one who spoilt the family name. The disgrace, the laughing stock. I could go on and on.
My opinion about interracial unions are quite, well, different. For instance, there are races that could pass in my family and others that are a no - no.

Interracial marriages cause too much trouble. Also, it doesn't quite promote the diversity everyone's fishing for.

That's is because of movies. A lot of movies portrays black people to be gangsta and steal a lot and ghetto. And they're just stereotyping.

Families aren't always racist. My family isn't racist. They said I can marry whoever I love regardless of race.

And if the family is racist, that's their problem and they chose to get themselves into it. Don't blame interracial marriages; blame ignorant people.

In my opinion, race shouldn't play a part in love whatsover..

I think everyone's raised a valid point, about the family issues etc.

But I find it hard to think of a reason why interracial marriage is such a bad thing. Some families may have strong beliefs on who they need to marry, and we should respect that. But to me, nothing should get in the way of love.

All in all I'm all for it..

[VaeVictis]

There is absolutely nothing wrong with interracial marriage. =/

I don't understand how people could say there is. Yes, there are different cultures, and sometimes the customs upheld by those cultures can conflict with each other, but that's no reason to dislike interracial marriages - stuff like that can be overcome.

Interracial dating is fine in my opinion. It wouldnt destroy diversity either. Its not like every person is going to date outside of their race, and there are also tons of different races that will blend. IF anything, there would be more diversity because there would no longer be just a set group of people. Look at the crayon box for goodness sake. It all started with Red, Yellow, and Blue. Then there was red, ORANGE, yellow, GREEN, blue, and PURPLE. Now there are tons of variations of different crayons. Also cultures wouldnt merge, because there is no set culture based on race. If you went to a school, you'd see preppy, punks, artsy people, hip hop heads, and so on. Love has no color. 99.99 percent of us wouldnt be here today if there wasnt wany interracial dating and marriage going on. No one has a pure white or pure black or pure hispanic background. Also the whole argument about blonde hair blue eyes not existing anymore...Just because its a recessive gene doesnt mean it wont occur anymore. There are tons of extremely fair skinned black people that arent biracial, where did they come from. What about my black friend who was born with fair skin, blonde hair, and green eyes? What about my Afro-Brazilian friend who was born with blue eyes? What about my black mother that was born with green eyes and red hair? Where did they all come from?

Race should not be an issue!
Im for interracial dating/marriages.
In like 50 years well all be mixed anyway! lol
Personally, I tend to go for men outside my race... asian, hispanic, black.. idk

[Joss-eh-lime]

for interracial marriage!

I HATE when I hear an parent or a peer saying
"I only date white people"
or any race in particular.

because first of all, that is sort of racist and secondly it limits your choices.
what if the perfect match for you is a different race that what is acceptable to you!

Not against it for others and I've even been in one. However, I prefer to date black men. No evil stares from nosy people and I dunno...I just love my culture and my people.

[Uronacid]

Hell, I prefer to date people who are about 25% Asian, and about 75% some other white skin (Holly). I guess it's just close to home for me. I mean, my mom and dad were white. I love that little bit of Asian. I don't know. It's just perfect for me.

Would it be morally wrong for my future daughter to date a black man? No, it would not. Would I be skeptical if my daughter dated a black kid? Yes, I would. He would have a lot of proving to do before I accepted him. Truth is, I can't help but feel that way. I don't trust black people as quickly as I trust white people. It sucks for them, but that's just what my life experience has taught me. I can't help the way I was treated by black people through-out the course of my life. I obviously don't believe that all black people are bad, but I can't help being extra cautious when they are around.

^u can trust me josh


i'm for interracial marriages. i think black women have a bigger problem with interracial stuff than anyone, in my own personal experience. i can't count the number of times a black girl has made a comment about me dating other races.

I have to say, you have proven yourself. Maybe because you're an attractive young man, and you're also intelligent. I have worked my way past the color of your skin buddy. ;]

*writes in his book*

See, you're on the cool page.

[brooklyneast05]

^score!

[MissFits]

I think it's just fine. If I had a son and he was dating a black girl, I wouldn't mind. As long as she wasn't rude, bitchy, or stuck up. But, that goes for any race.

The people in my family are REALLY against it though. Sometimes I want to bring in the biggest meanest black guy I can find to a family function just to see how they would act.

You should make sure he's packin' a "9" too.

[MissFits]

Hahahaha!
I should also have him try to sell drugs to my family members.

I wonder if they would hold their tongue, or make me leave.
