Is it wrong to say interracial dating and marriage is overrated?

What is so special about it? They way most Black interracial daters come off as if it all about the gratification and acceptance by dating someone who does not share the same racial heritage. I do know attractive women of a different races, and a few share some of the same interest but nothing crosses my mind about dating them. Some will say race mixing will end racism. Do you believe in such nonsense? And what are the pros for dating someone of different race? Because I am quite sure you can enjoy and learn a different culture without having a romantic relationship with someone from that culture and background. Is it wrong to say interracial dating and marriage is overrated?

    LOLOL, I was just talking to a close friend about this. She's one of those people that are willing to put up with some mess from a white guy, but not from a black guy. I've seen black guys do the same. She got mad at me when I told her that interracial relationships are not beautiful. I don't hate them, but I'm not going to call them beautiful just because they're interracial. That's just straight up stupid.

    I'm not an advocate for interracial relationships. I believe that there is a plan to exterminate the black race, ESPECIALLY in America. Why? Well black people in America know too much, oh and black people are the most hated race on this planet.

    Also lets be real, or at least I'll be real. I've seen too many interracial relationships for the wrong reasons. Um non-black men/women are better, black women have tooooo much attitudes, I want a light skinned baby, I want my child to have good hair, or the person suffers from a white Jesus complex. To this day I don't think that the movie something new is cute. I don't. All this lets mix together, interracial relationships equal love bullshyt is propaganda. When you think about it no other race is breaking their neck to promote interracial love. I don't like when black people do this. I don't like to see my race put another race on a pedestal, ESPECIALLY the race that opress them, and still opress's them.

    I feel like if you meet someone and you like them physically and mentally,they respect your race culture, you, and under stand white supremacy, the non blacks who aide them, and want to put an end to it them I'm fine with. Now USUALLY that's not the case.

    It's funny how there are always reports about single black women. It's like black people are not good enough for each other, but we're good enough for other races. No it's not wrong to say that. Interracial dating is pushed down the throats of black people. Seriously when do you see people tryin to force white and Asians to interracial date? It's always black people that need to look at things differently...I can see through the smoke screen... Also people need to stop giving white people a pass for having skin.

    If you go around the borders of Georgia, and florida ( hit statesborro, Gainesville, Valdosta, Pensacola, Tallahassee, and etc) you will see all of the "amazingly beautiful interracial daters"

    Source(s): There are too many brainwashed people..

    What is so special about it? It only becomes special and overrated when followers of the ray-cheesm religion dedicate so much energy in hating them and crying waa-waa-waa I can't take it, I don't like it, it shouldn't exist cuz I am quite sure you can enjoy and learn a different culture without having a romantic relationship with someone from that culture and background (yes of course but not necessarily strictly so too).

    what are the pros for dating someone of different race? is equal to what are the pros for fussing about this:

    views, practices and actions reflecting the belief that humanity is divided into distinct biological groups called races and that members of a certain race share certain attributes which make that group as a whole less desirable, more desirable, inferior, or superior. (from wikipedia.org)

    Differences are always there but sharpening them won't solve a problem.

    Interracial relationships are neither overrated nor underrated. It's a relationship; not a trend. It's no more overrated than any kind of couple.

    Interracial marriages only make up 7% of the United States. Americans just don't like seeing them, which is the reason why people think it's too much hype (already) even though these couples barely exist.

    Until interracial couples become ordinary and invisible, people will still treat it like a trend rather than a relationship.

    Well, I can relate to any one of any race really.. I don't think it's overrated...I thing it's great.. It shows that people are open to other races.. Like La Sonadora said.. I don't think it's underrated or, overrated, it barely makes up 8 % of the country... It's just that people may something different than what they're used to.. It's a relationship

    No it isn't wrong. I think it's one of the wonderful things about the world that there are different cultures. Of course you can respect and learn from other cultures while still being proud of the solidarity of your own.

    It Is overrated. The only reason why people glamorize it is because it involves people of two different races. Especially black/white relationships.

    It's overrated if it's a fetish. If it's truly love, then it's no more overrated than any other kind of coupling.

    it's silly to even have an opinion either way. as long as the man and woman want to be together, who cares what color they are.
