I generally find black oops I mean "African American" and west-Asian girls unattractive . Other than that, I don't care. My girlfriend is Korean but she was adopted by white parents and is probably whiter than I am in behaviour.

I don't care about interracial relationships. Why should I? I'm totally cool with somebody dating or marrying someone of another race.
On the other hand, I don't buy into some bullshit suggesting that being in an interracial relationship benefits the human race and that when everyone's the same race we'll reach some zenith of understanding and peace. Be with who you want to be with and don't make yourself out to be some sort of hero. You're not a better human being just because you're fucking a hispanic girl, or an asian man.

Personally, I'm attracted to some races and not to others. I do not find black women attractive. I can discern attractive features in those that have them, certainly, but I never feel that overwhelming, true sense of attraction that I get with other women. There are exceptions, but it's very rare. This isn't a conscious decision. It's what I'm instinctively attracted to.
Meanwhile, I've noticed that a great many black women seem to be interested in me. One friend, who does a terrible job at denying her affection toward me, is in an interracial relationship with another white guy. Luckily she seems enamoured enough with him that she's forgotten me. And I'm fine with them dating, of course.
In general, I'm hit on probably twice as much by black girls than by white girls. Which is taking into account that black people compose only 12% of the American population.

I'm attracted to plenty of women in other races: Hispanics, Asians, Arabics, Eastern Europeans, Russian, etc. I'm seldom attracted to Indian women (not Native American, but Indian).
Women of European descent (mixed nationalities or pure ones) are who attract me most, though. And I'm very picky when it comes to women (maybe one in a hundred I deem worth pursuing for a relationship), but I'm mostly attracted to them. This is taking into account the fact that they compose the majority of the population I live in. If I spent a year in Japan I'm sure that would change somewhat.

I'm mixed European: Danish, Swedish, Irish or English (unsure), some German, and Greek. I also have some Cherokee ancestors. Out of those, I'm mostly Greek, though. People are always surprised when they hear this, because I have blond hair and rather fair skin, but it's the truth. It doesn't occur to them that Greeks have more features than dark hair and olive skin (which is only applicable to some Greeks, anyway; common misconception people have of Italians, too).
I like being multi-cultured, sure. If I were pure German, I'd probably like that fine. Having a diverse racial background isn't a pro or a con, it just is. Take pride in what you are and what you want. It's foolish to think otherwise.

(Also, I've known just as many beautiful mixed children as I do ugly mixed children. Just like I've known just as many beautiful children of one race as I do ugly children of one race.)

I recently had to read a short story by Tobias Wolff named Say Yes. The argument in the story is about interracial marriage. And although my thoughts on the story have little to do with this topic, the story itself does.

Holy dammit, Tobias Wolff. He's a fucking excellent writer, I love his stuff. I've only read two of his short stories ("Bullet in the Brain" and "Hunters in the Snow"), but they're some of the best I've read.
Shall read this after I finish my work for the night. Thanks.

I'm down with interracial dating. In fact, my girlfriend is Mexican. However her skin is lighter compared to the rest of her family, so unless she tans, most people will assume she's white unless otherwise noted. However I do know the differences and in fact love the Mexican culture. It's been around me for nearly all my life, so it feels natural too me.

I've never understood racial purity, but that might be because I don't also have a single cultural background to latch onto. I just pick and choose what I want. Or it could be the fact that I wasn't raised to be racist. I'm very much against racism, and do get pissed off at it.

Either way, interracial dating won't destroy the world, nor world cultures. The world itself is too vast and humans tend to migrate towards cliques. Even in small communities, differences pop up, and people with similar tastes will gravitate towards one another. Even if a whole one world culture were to happen, it wouldn't happen any time soon.

Interracial dating is really something I do not mind. Being white myself, I was suprised recently when I looked back and realized that all of my girlfriends were Asian up until recently. Personally...I think it is the fact that most of the white girls at my school are completely stupid, and this is further proven by the fact that my current girlfriend is white, but from a different school.

Although...recently I have been thinking that maybe she is not too smart after all. *points to his last Chocojournal entry*

I dated a black girl for about a year my senior year of highschool.

I caught a bunch of shit for it from my friends at first, it being "da south" and all, but I honestly didnt even think "hey, im dating a black girl."

We worked together and got along really well. I asked her out on a date, and it was smooth sailing from there. I just thought of her as a great person, and the fact that other people made it difficult for us sometimes, only made us love each other more.

We decided to break it off when she left for college. We still keep in touch.

So I guess im really not that concerned about race when it comes to dating. Do what makes you happy and dont worry about anyone else.

It's fine, people are just narrow-minded. Takes a while to kick in.

i guess its cause people have a mindset..not only does it matter that they are going out with someone but the people around them really can change their minds about the whole relationship if they're not taking the relationship seriously

I can't see how any rational person could have a problem with interracial couples; but then I did lose my virginity to a black girl.
