Are u ok with interracial dating?
Honestly I'm not. It boils my blood to see black men with white girls.
I'm not, because many people do it for the wrong reasons. Like black men will resort to dating white women because they are seen to be more submissive, or they think black women are "too much to deal with". Or because media puts it in their head that white women are the epitome of beauty.

I know what you mean cuz my boyfriend shares the same views, but sometimes i can uderstand why interracial dating occurs. I mean it can matter on the surroundings and environment uve grown up in, like say if u lived in wales, and were the only black person around for miles...ur more likely to develop and interest for other ethnic backgrounds.
Like say my cousins at Cambridge University, and she's dating a white guy, she doesnt think anything of it. She only knows two other black people there...see what i mean?
BUT i think its ok to date other races, only because black girls are still trying to fit into their stereotype (rude, fiesty, blunt, strong minded...) and some men really want a passive girl, and i have to say there's not many of us black passive girls left....not where i live anyway. I mean am speaking on behalf of myself cuz i AM black passive (well-behaved) intelligient, intelluctual speaking, but there's not many of us, so it only seems fair that to save the trouble black men go for other ethnic backgrounds. PLUS alot of these men that date other ethnic races have already dated black girls and devloped maybe a dislike to them.
I know that with my bf, he's you "typical" black guy, how he speaks, dresses (although he's trying to change) and his attitude. I find black men very proud..they take things seriously and are too worried about embarrassing themselves in public. I find that annoying, and sometimes i wonder if id be better off with a different ethnic race who can present themselves welll, speak to people with respect and display intellect. OR i can search to the end of the earth for someone in my area who's: Black, smart, well-spoken, well presented.....etc.
So you cant really be fully angry at black men for dating other ethnic backgrounds, because there's a grey area in all of this.
Still saying everything i said, i feel annoyed when i see nice black gentlemen..smart and everything, dating another ethnic background cuz den i think "hey!! thats not fair, where were u wen i was looking" lol.
And there's my poorely written essay to your question lol.

I'm white and I could care less as well. I personally never dated a black man because I haven't met one in real life that I was really attracted to. I do think that guy in Fast and Furious II was hot but again... he's an actor.
How do you know many black men resort to dating white women because the seem submissive or because black women are too much to deal with? Also there are many black women who are the epitome of beauty as well.
My sister inlaw who is white has dated two black guys and she's anything but submissive but she's got a great personality, she's fun and she's active and she's cute.
Could it be that these black guys are perhaps attracted to her because they can see past the color barrier into her personality?

i'm a white male and you will thank your father and mom racial perspectives to hundreds of years of people being contaminated by making use of a e book that promotes racism, hate, and intolerance. devoid of the Bible there could be very few subjects with interracial relationships. I even have been married to a girl of diverse race for 12 years and we are the two contributors of the human race. those that could no longer settle for that are those that are crammed with hate. perhaps this could be a competent question. If the Bible is against it, why did God enable interracial couples to be waiting to have babies at the same time? they're incorrect on form a million, as some white racists will never choose for you, yet whilst they're that shallow they're no sturdy besides. there will be lots of others which will nevertheless have an interest, you already understand what i think of approximately 2. If 3 happens which would be a disgrace, yet that's no longer your fault, instead it is the illiberal family fault that are on your loved ones. 4 wold many times no longer ensue recently, perhaps one hundred years in the past, yet even then by using making use of ignorant people. somewhat 5 is opposite. you would be respected as somebody who's courageous sufficient to break the dislike and intolerance that your loved ones has, Take care and strong success.

Honestly I don't have a problem with as long as the ppl are doing it for the right reasons. like some black guys will go with a white girl just for her money and i get her pregnant. i know some guys that have done this. they consider their white woman to be their trophy. that's sick and terrible. but i know for many people that are married and have a spouse of a different race and it works out just fine for them.

LOL. What is this? The dark ages? lol no pun intended.
Are you 100% sure that no people in interracial relationships don't truly love eachother?

I have no problem with interracial dating - I'm a product of it :D .But why do you? Is it a secret racist inhibition, I dont you do. If they do it for the wrong reasons, then you have a point, but what about a black girl with white man?

I've dated anyone with a spark, with something behind their smile or eyes.. or someone that just struck me as attractive. People are people.
You see differences in culture, and experience and perspective that way, too. (then again, I've had over 70 gf's, before they were called a "gf"). American black women and African women are different (I was called a "white devil" by a girl from Ghana, who was afraid of me after a few very, very good hours of continuity of passion). Dated a few Filipino and Brazilian (in fact, diff. cultures within Brazil!), French and English, and every kind of women you'd meet as a NYC resident -- from Puerto Rican, Irish, Italian, Jewish, Pakistani muslim, Indian catholic, Canadians, etc. etc. southern, midwest, Boston girls, NYC urban and suburban are a big difference, too.. not just skin color. WASPs vary from Manhattan to Princeton, NJ. I could write a book.
But, I was never with a Hawaiian/Italian and Spanish mix.. girl...
Hmmmmmmmmmmm....

In absolute darkness the only thing that separates us is our personalities(What is inside our hearts). God made all of us and we are all valuable...my personal preference is just that....my person preference.... but I don't think any different of someone if they choose to do this. I once thought as you but I guess age has changed my thought process over the years. I would rather see two people of different race who make each other happy be together then two people lonely and sad. I feel that is what God would want also. Have a good day.

Why? Did the guy you like hook up with a white girl or something?
To answer your question, yes. I think it's fine. Never personally done it, and I guess I won't because i'm married and done with dating, but interracial dating is fine with me.

that is a horrible reason to be against interracial dating... not that there are any good reasons to be against it. if you have a problem, it is not with interracial dating it is with the media's portrayal of black women. fight against inequality and injustice, don't seek to impede the rights of others as an outcry against your own feelings of betrayal. Perhaps part of your problem stems from you own inability to cross racial lines. open your mind and you might find a better lover rather than bitterness.
