What do you think of interracial couples?

I'm amazed this is still an issue worth talking about. Why the hell should I, or anyone else, care who someone else wants to screw? Why should I care who they want to get married to? As long as the other person is capable of giving an informed consent to those things, and is a legal adult, it's something that seems to me like it should only matter to those involved.

It's all about your taste. Whoever you're attracted to (within the aforementioned limits) go for it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

What century is your town stuck in? Around here, interracial is so common that nobody even remarks on it. There are some types of pairing you never see, but other than that...

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm just saying I had no idea. No idea at all. It has been this way in my area for a good few years now, and I had just no idea at all that this was still an issue in America. What state do you live in? I assume these attitudes vary from state to state.

Seriously, this thread comes as a colossal shock to me. Over here, people date whoever they find attractive. Admittedly, that's only been the case with recent generations, but still, I thought that everywhere was like this. The phrase "interracial couple" just never gets said.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Most of the youth have come to accept the idea but the older seem to still dislike it sometimes. Mostly parents. I figured that since Britain never really had as bad of issues concerning Africans like America does (i mean we had a civil war for god sake) so naturally the word interracial is probably never used there...

The Afro/Carribean people who came here first were invited. We said to the people in the West Indies "Please come here! We need more people. We have jobs we can't fill". Naturally there was some racial tension at first, but overall, it's not on the same level as in America, and never has been. I guess when you mention the civil war, that does help to put things in perspective.

There are still racists here, and there always have been, but racism is a minority view now. It's not a paradise of equality, there's always some racial tension, but overall, we never had the whole segregation issue to contend with, as far as I know. It just never quite got that bad. Back to the subject of interracial couples, I think that probably you have to go back 3 generations at least since it's been a big issue for the majority. Maybe I just live in a nice area, if other British people want to set me straight, I'm interested to hear it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
