Default Do you believe in inter racial relationships?

I don't care. But I know some people who do. I think if you fall in love with a person's soul and not what they look like then what is wrong with it.

Totally agree with you!
It doesn't matter what he looks like, I fall in love with a guy for who he is, for his soul and his personality!

Race doesn't matter - people get together/ fall in love because of what's inside, not what's outside.

And how do you believe in inter-racial relationships? I didn't know it was a belief system.

What I mean by believe is do you agree with it. I can understand where you are coming from. My mistake.

for me..honestly..I dont even see it...like if two people of a different race date..i don't think.."Oh..interacial.." i just think.."oh cute..they are dating.."
I know some people still have a problem with it...and i'm not sure why. To me were all still humans of the same species.
How very un-you of you.

It doesn't bother me at all. Like someone said before I don't see interracial, I see that two people are dating.

i really don't care. i think people can be with whoever they want, no matter what race. even if i see a chinese person with a mexican, i still don't care. sorry it was just an example. it's not about race, it's more about the chemistry. i can't stand when people only want to date people of their own race.

While (most) people would never admit to being against inter-racial relationships, I think it is more of a subconscious thing. Same as how (most) people would never admit to being racist, but are. I mean, if people truly didn't care, wouldn't there be more inter-racial relationships? Or maybe it's just because I'm from a predominantly white, small town where mixed race relationships are uncommon...

I think it's more a matter of what you're attracted to, rather than something subconscious. I'm generally attracted to white or middle eastern guys - which may be because I'm a mix of the two. But does that mean I'm not attracted to anyone else? No. Does it mean is disapprove of inter-racial relationships? No.

Now, I'll admit I'm moderately surprised when I see one. A friend of mine who is as white as a sheet is now engaged to a really dark black guy. Looking at their photos, it's a little weird, sure - but they love each other, and it shows. And that erases all the strangeness. It's the chemistry and the way they look at each other that makes seeing them together the most natural thing in the world.

I don't see any problems with it, and generally, I'm more attracted to hispanic boys then I am white boys (so inturn I date them more), and I'm like way Irish, so hey. lol

But I come from a very southern racist family, and that sucks. So they aren't happy with me.

Love doesn't have a color so it doesn't bother me. I think it is prejudice to not date someone you like because of their color

I am all for interracial dating, although I think it's kinda ironic that one of my family members was up in arms about me dating a white guy a few years ago and now she's engaged to one. I only have an issue with people who have an issue with it themselves. *looks at sentence* Did that make sense?

I completely agree. It's all about who you are attracted. I think the reason it is more common to date within your own race is people tend to want to be with people who are like themselves and share the same background...there is nothing wrong with dating a member of the same race just as there is nothing wrong with dating a member of another race. It's all about love and what you want from the relationship.

For me...I dont even look at race..it's whoever i find myself attracted too. I've liked a lot of people of many different races.
How very un-you of you.

I think the inter racial dating is fine. I dont even see it as you know a black girl is dating a white boy. It actually pleases me to see that these couples started dating because of the personalities no because of the color or what you parents think. I've once asked my parents before would you care if i dated a white boy (im black). They told me that "Baby in me and your fathers eyes we see only people not colors. You can date anyone you please.
