Bi-racial dating

[Mysticbeauty]

Well the other day a friend boy of mine was telling me what ethnic groups he found attractive. He was telling me how dark skinned african americans were ugly and asians were odd looking (he was spanish though). I just want to know what the people of VT think about bi-racial dating. My friend was also telling me he would never marry someone who was not spanish though because bi-racial marriages never last. I disagreed with everything he said but it striked me that he's not the only person that thinks that way. So I want to hear your thoughts

I'm utterly repulsed by it.

To each his own.

I think that people should be free to date anyone they want without others judging it or otherwise putting it down. It's fine to have a personal preference with these things, but I think it crosses a line when those opinions are made public, b/c it can interfere with or hurt another person. That's not OK.

Tolerance is a virtue, and it doesn't necessarily mean agreement.

I havent a care, in fact I made a bi racial child and if anyone has a problem with that, then they can moan and groan about it. The fact of the matter is, love does not discriminate, it doesnt pick favorites, to love no one is superior, everyone in love is welcome with everyone else. Despite what they say.

QFT.

I'm in an inter-racial relationship and it's the most fulfilling relationship I've ever had.

I'm utterly repulsed by it.

Can you please expand on why you are repulsed by it?

I don't know if I would date outside of my race...I haven't so far, but it doesn't mean I am opposed to it. I had a hispanic guy tell me that he thought that women who weren't hispanic or white were ugly...a little harsh, but I guess it was just his preference.

It is kind of like dogs I guess. Sometimes a Chihuahua mates with a poodle and sometimes a Chihuahua mates with a Chihuahua...it is just a matter of preference.

[BeautifulSilence]

Well... I'm like mix raced - at least three different ethnicities. So I'm for it because I wouldn't be here without it.

Of course, I have preferences but if I found someone that I was attracted to, more than just physically, race wouldn't matter at all.

[BlackenedSilver]

I've never tried it, but only because the opportunity has never arised. If it did I wouldn't say no. You never know who could be your soul mate like Greg said "Love does not discriminate"

This is truly curious to me. In your example, dogs are dogs, what they recognize is the canine, they do not discriminate btw'n breeds, they arent even aware of them! Breeds are a man made contrivance.

As i looove to say, "Man, the only species that doesn't recgonize his own kind".

Only man discriminates against his own based on his own man made differences.

mate, love knows no colour. i think he has issues he must overcome. that sort of thinking is wrong. if he's truly spanish from spain, then he of all people ought to know that most if not all spaniards have arab, visgoth, etc blood in their veins. if he's mexican, then in addition to that mixture, he would have mayan blood in his veins too. education is key.

[IAMWILL]

To some up what everyone has said with a classic phrase: "Love is truly blind".

[MoveAlong]

Whoa whoa whoa, I'm sure that bi-racial stuff can work out, I mean when two people love each other? Yeah?
I think it's unfair to call a race UGLY. But it's ok to call them "unattractive in my opinion".
As far as me, I'm not sexually attracted to black guys, or Iranian guys, or asian guys, or at least these types of guys that don't look really white (I saw a cute asian-white guy once).

Sure, maybe it will happen someday, who knows. But I know that I'm definitely not attracted to some races. That doesn't mean it can't work out for others.

[punkjake]

I think hes dumb no offense dude,and this is coming from a MEXICAN,well a water down one :P(25% mexican ;) )but it is his opinion so yeah but i like dark skined white girls and Medium dark Mexicans.But i think it straight(cool,not meaning the sexuality) and ok.

I made a bi racial child
aww whats his/her name(lol sorry off subject)but my grandma(dad's mom) told my mom she dones't care what color or what see looked like as long as she loves him :)

Please stay on topic or the thread will be locked.

I disagree with everything he said also, and I am shocked by that statment that he'd never marry some1 who isn't spanish.

[Mysticbeauty]

One day I wish to marry someone that isnt in my ethnic group

[Wayvrn]

Can you please expand on why you are repulsed by it?

I know you quoted Jack but maybe he is because people should stay within their own race(s), like whites between themselves, asians between themselves etc.

That's my guess.

[Sapphire]

Why should whites be with whites and blacks with blacks?
Why shouldn't a white date a black or a hispanic date an asian?

[Ripplemagne]

Some people are just uncomfortable with the idea of interracial dating. I don't know why people take such an offensive approach to this notion. If you're dating someone of another race, good for you. If someone doesn't like it, leave them alone.

The irony of it is that some of you will rant, rage and complain when someone does the same thing to you for your opinion on interracial dating.

[Gumleaf]

well all i will say is that my first girlfriend was asian and i am white caucasian. i am the same race as my current girlfriend but the only reason the other one didn't work was because she cheated.

[Triceratops]

I see nothing wrong with bi-racial relationships at all, there's no fault in them.

However, if a hispanic doesn't a caucasian attractive as such then I think that's fine, that's down to their own opinion and preferences.

[Wayvrn]

Well Marshki pretty much summed it up, it's just a matter of peoples choices.

[kyle95]

we're all human beings. we can fall in love with whom ever we please. some people simply don't approve of mixed unions because they're insecure and ignorant.
