Interracial dating is perfectly fine. I'm white and have three black in-laws, and I'm completely cool with that. Anyone who isn't can get lovingly swathed in barbed wire and shot into the sun, as far as I'm concerned.
I don't care, really. I've dated outside my race before. Granted, it was the same reason why I dated most of my boyfriends.
To get them to shut up and leave me alone.

If a chicken crosses the road and nobody else is around to see it, does the road move beneath the chicken instead?Don't give a damn, I'll date a person if I like them.
The thing about making witty signature lines is that it first needs to actually be witty.I hate my race so interracial is a okay in my book.
Please.I don't really give a damn. I say let people bang whomever they want.
I still tend to do a double-take, though less often than I used to, but I have no problems with it. Besides, mixed-race kids are adorable. There's just something about the blending of ethnic features...
i. hear. a. sound.Who cares?
Except for 4/1/2011. That day lingers in my memory like...metaphor here...I should go.I'd honestly be very surprised if a forum like this had any problem with interracial dating. Tropers as a whole tend to be rather socially liberal, even if some of them might be economically conservative. Anyway, yeah, I don't give a crap. And it's not even in a "It grosses me out, but they have right to do it" kind of way, like it is with incest. It's in the "I genuinely was never bothered by it" kind of way. The cutest couple I know consists of a Chinese girl and a Caucasian guy.
"War doesn't prove who's right, only who's left." "Every saint has a past, every sinner has a future."Not an issue.
Intercultural dating, now, that can be problematic. It is not a bad thing in any sense of the world, of course; but dating someone who comes from a very different culture than you carries its own set of potential pitfalls, in addition to those that any relationship has.
Not saying that it cannot be done, or that it cannot be done well; just saying that cultural differences in a couple can be a rather delicate matter.

But they seem to know where they are going, the ones who walk away from Omelas.Don't mind at all, more power to 'em. Good to see people figure out that love is more fun than being douchebags to each other.

That's racist.
And better than thy stroke; why swellest thou then?Yes. All others above my own.
Please.I'm in one, so I guess I'm ok with it.
Dunno if I could date a traditionalist Chinese, Korean, or Japanese person though. From what I've heard of their cultures, I wouldn't be very compatible.
^^ If you truly hate your "race", whatever that even means, should you not be against you marrying people of other ethnicities and "contaminate their bloodlines"? ;)
Just saying ;)
But they seem to know where they are going, the ones who walk away from Omelas.I want kids someday. It is true I am just worsening things if I breed outside my race. I am truly scum.
But I really hate my race cause they are so goddamn stereotypical. So so stereotypical.

Please.Who gives a fuck? Take love/lust/friendship wherever you find it. Screw identity politics.
If someone wants to just date ther own, that's fine too, as long as they shut the fuck up about those who don't—et vice versa.
Enjoy the Inferno...Sometimes it's a bit of a surpise when someone you know fairly well talks about their spouse a lot, and you picture them as being the same race, and then you meet them and it turns out they're not. It's not a bad thing though, it's more a 'oh, you don't match up to my mental picture. Oh well.'
I have no problem with it.
Be not afraid...Believe it or not, I don't have a problem with interracial dating. What I do have a problem with is racial stereotypes influencing dating decisions.
There's no justice in the world and there never was~There's not much of a discussion to be had here, eh? Oh well. For the record: Interracial dating is perfectly fine and normal. No questions to be asked, no looks to be given, no judgement to be dealt. In this day and age, there isn't that much difference between races any more anyway.
Somebody brought it up in this thread (end of post 277 onwards), and I wanted to know what everyone else thought about the issue. Does it offend you, does it make you wonder, or do you just not give a shit?
