Would You Date Someone From Another Race?

[JT]

Would you?I have a lot of friends who make a big deal if they see a black man and white woman (or visa versa)!!!!I think that if you find someone you love you tell that person how you feel (unless your shy!) no matter what color they are!!!As you all know, I am black.But when it comes to love (or anything else) I don't care what color you are.I mean I have crushes on Charlie's Angels!!!!!!!!!(1977-79 cast only!!).I like both black women in TV and white women.Hey as long as they are girls!!!But if you are a man who likes men there's nothing wrong with that either!!!!!!!
All I'm trying to say is if you love someone a whole bunch it shouldn't matter at all what color they are.I have white friends and black friends.And we all hate our reading teacher but that's something else.How do you feel about that?

[JethroSimpson]

I don't think colour is important when it comes to love, I know it wouldn't make any difference to me because I judge someone on what they're like as a person.

I've got black friends and I would have no problem dating anyone because of colour no matter what anybody said to me.

[vienna waits]

Color doesnt matter at all to me... I just dont think I'd ever be with someone african american from around here because there is probably a total of about 5 african americans in my school.

[XoVanillaRain90oX]

i have nothing against blacks and whites..chinese and spanish..if you like eachother and r in love is all that matters! my cousin's friend is white and married a black man..whats the big deal!? its cool in my book.

[FOLrocks1]

i have no problem with that! I went out with a few blck girls before!

I agree. I focus more on a persons' personality than what they look like. And, I don't see why some people in the world are racist sometimes towards blacks, at least I know that's what it was like about 50 to 60 years ago, because I don't know about anyone else, but I have never been bugged by a black person in my life. The only race that ever bothered me were white people in my childhood. I don't think the color of a person really matters as long as the person is nice towards other people. I would for sure date a person from another race if they were kind and funny. Those are the only two qualities that matter to me. I wouldn't care what color they were. In fact, it probably wouldn't even cross my mind.

:) :p :cool: :happyface :wave:

Same w/ me, but like you said, there's only about 3 African-Americans in my school, and I don't even know them because I just transfered here about a year ago, so the chances for me right now would be slim.

[Chocoholic]

Skin color means nothing to me. I look at a persons' personality.

[MyStErIoUs ChIck]

Race means nothing. It's what's on the inside that counts.

[Kay Scarpetta]

To me, it doesn't matter. If I love someone, I don't care if they are green. The chance could possibly be high for me, because there are about a total of 5 white kids in my school. But still, I have no problem what-so-ever

[Max Whittaker]

I will date anyone I like personally. We have to be best friends, but we don't have to be the same race.

[-*Forever*-]

Do you really think I give a crap??? LoL Well, I know some perfectly perfect interracial couples *coughSuzanneandAnthonycough* anyhoo.......
I don't care at all. But all the black guys in my school are mean.

[*Marilyn Monroe*]

"I don't think it's wrong, but I wouldn't do it! I think that blacks should stick with blacks and whites with whites!" That's what my grandma said, so i can't tell her that i have a crush on someone who's *gasp* black!! Oh god, that would be like sinning in her eyes! I dont have a problem with it cuz i've been in interracial relationships before. There are always gonna be the people who think that interracial dating is bad, but i dont!

[°Bubbly Blonde°]

Of course there is nothing wrong with it...people are people, and hotties come in every race/color! Can ANYONE (girls/gay guys) deny the total hottness of: Denzel Washington, Craig Davis, etc? NO! Can any of you guys deny the hottness of Halle Berry, or Janet Jackson, or Beyonce Knowles? NO! If you are hot, (and have a good personality of course) than you are in, in my book! lol

[DarleneIllyria]

I would date outside my race. I don't care what color a person's skin is either. Personality is the only factor I look for. If you have a great personality than chances are I will go out with you. If you have an attitude problem, then chances are I will avoid you entirely. At my school, I have one certain guy in my mind. He thinks he is God's gift to women, and his head is so big its a complete mystery how he fits in the door. I can't stand when guys act like that.

In closing if the guy is modest and has a good personality then I don't care if he is blue with green stripes. I would go out with him anyway.

Are we cousins or something? ;) My grandma always says the same thing.

[ILuvJoandBlair]

I couldn't care less about what race you are, if I like you, I like you. It's all about your personality.

[InspectorExstead]

color means nothing when it comes to love. if u seriously love someone that should be enough...and the color of their race or religion should not be something that gets in the way.

[Blair85]

I see absolutely nothing wrong w/ it. People are people & I wish more people out in the world would realize that. I don't even care if someone is orange w/ 3 feet long buck teeth, they are still a person who should be treated w/ respect!!!! I would date a person of another race, but there's not much of a variety of I guess 'different' people around here. There is only one black student at my school and he is so nice, but I bet it has to be hard not having anyone a little bit similar looking to you. Anyway, I like all people! I can't wait to get out in the world to meet more peoples! :wave:

[Swimfan85]

color doesnt matter....the only thing thats counts is that we like each other for ourselves and not materialisticlly

[JoJoJoJoJoJoJoJoJo]

I don't have a problem with me...but i'm like the only one in my family. Like someone earlier said, my entire family is "i'm not against, but i wouldn't do it attitude". I'm white, and i've been on dates w/ male friends who weren't. I've never understood what's wrong w/ it... theres no such things as kooties.

[ISmellFine]

I don't have a problem with other people doing that, but I, myself wouldn't.

[Hollow]

No it feels a lil weird to me

[JDS84]

I don't see anything wrong with it either. But I wouldn't do it either.

[DJM77]

I wouldn't have a problem dating a girl of a different race. Love is colorblind.

[X4Wrapsumden4X]

I am gonna marry a black person cause they are so much hotter than white people I would **** nelly right now....but but my dad said the day I come home with a black person I would never see him again lol

[JoPol_wannabe]

It doesn't matter to me what color of guy I date just as long as he is sweet, sensitive,caring, we have allot of the same interests, he is cute and a Christian. I don't think it would matter to my parents if I dated a black person just as long as we love each other and he treats me right.

I didn't know you are black. Anyways, I'm with the other posters in this thread. As long as the person has a good personality, is nice, and is understanding, then that would be all that matters.

same here as long as you are nice ill date anyone from any race. i am dating a hispanic now.

[AnaheimPMWitch]

I dont think it really Matters as long as I love the guy Race doesnt matter nor does age (I mean HECK i'm all in love with a 20 year old and i'm 30) or anything else as long as long as they have the values i'd want them to have

[Czas na Zywiec]

I don't mind what race you date, as long as you're happy, but I think I'll stick with the human race. ;) After all, there is only one human race.

[GrapeJelly]

My husband is black and I'm not. We have a wonderful marriage and I'm the happiest I've ever been in my life. I consider myself very lucky that we were both open to the prospect of an inter-racial relationship, or I would have missed out on the best thing to ever happen to me. :)

[#1_Nancy_McKeon]

I'm not against inter racial relationships either. My mom has said she wouldn't do it either until recently because she said when she was growing up mix racial children didn't really belong at school. They were in a league of their own, but now society is different, and it's fine now. My mom was going to adopt a inter-racial child (black/white) but his mother decided she wanted him.

I'm white and my boyfriend is Indian. I find nothing wrong with it. I love him, and that's all that matters. I'd do anything for him. (Within reason of course. LOL ;) )

[Hollow]

no it wouldnt feel comfortable

[MandieR1980]

Yes I would infact I have feelings for a black guy right now. The only time I wouldn't date a black person is if he dresses like a homie (or talks like one) you know what I mean pants barely on their asses, I don't mean to offend anyone by saying that but I like a guy who dresses classy I'm not saying all black men dress like that because I know a few who don't and even some white guys dress like that.

[C Doody]

If i liked them yes. Just because someones a different color than you does that mean their a different kind of person? No.

Its like M&Ms. They all look different on the outside, Yet look the same on the inside.

[Sterling Holobyte]

Doesn't bother me. In fact, I married a part-Native American/part-Japanese girl. How's that for a different race?!

[angel676]

I would date out of my race, but he sure better have respect for me and be honest with me, as I would do the same for him.
I have no problem with interracial(sp) relationships, but my family is a different story, especially my grandparents.

[Three'sCompanyrules]

It doesn't matter at all to me, there is nothing wrong with it. If your in love and happy then its perfect. My parents wouldn't mind if I dated a black girl or any other race.

[Nanny Fine]

Of course I would - "surface" stuff doesn't matter, it's what is on the inside. I find myself more attracted to guys that aren't white though so I know I've never had a problem with it :):)

[Brandon]

no.

[Rob1]

My wife is the same race and religion as I am, but that's just how things turned out. In the past, I never had a problem dating someone outside of my faith, or of a different color. As long as she was a good person, that's all that mattered to me.

[DetectiveGriffin]

Man, I am way to fat to race!
No, j/k.

A friend of mine I worked with wanted to marry me several years ago, but he was a bisexual and i couldnt go for that. How he lives his life is fine with me, he was very nice and we got along great, but even though i had no problem with him being black, i didnt want to be involved with anyone who had a promisquous past, hetrosexual or homosexual. I think hes always had it in the back of his mind that it was his color. :(

Havent seen him in a lot of years; always wonder if hes ok and whats going down with him.

Since this is a sitcom board (not this thread, but the whole thing, you know what i mean), when i was little i used to love watching welcome back kotter. It always made me wonder how anybody could hate anybody over their race. Those kids were so funny and cute. I was real little and the town i grew up in was all white, so race isnt something i grew up thinking about, but al the people on tv were just so exotic and beautiful.

Then i would hear stuff on the news, words like New Yorks "hell's kitchen" and get really p.o'd and wonder what kind of person would make up a name like that. :(

[Ewan's My Man]

If I loved the person and was treated with respect I'm all for interracial relationships. I mean...I'm white, and I practically drool over Will Smith whenever I see him...and Sean Patrick Thomas...lawdy lawdy that man is hott.

Of all the responses to this question that I have seen so far, I really like yours the most. Wonderful answer, I wish that I have thought of that first! :)

[*Pleasant Tomorrow*]

Race would never bother me. It's always bothered me how ppl judge over things like that because it's so stupid. If I knew someone was the right person for me then I could care less about race.

[Tuesday Weld]

Compatibility is what matters,to me.If I'm compatible with a man of another race and we were really in love,I'd have no problem with it.

[Faith]

Race doesn't matter to me.. If I love someone and he loves me it doesn't matter one bit.. I usually tend to races other than my own though. My boyfriend right now is Native American, Hispanic
and White.

[*PinkLady*]

Absolutely! Race doesn't matter to me. It's what kind of person they are.

[°Bubbly Blonde°]

I might have posted in this thread, I dont remember, but I'd definitely date someone of another race, the guy I like and who likes me is Hispanic. I wouldnt exist if it were not for interacial relations (as wrong as they were...), people dont know it when they look at me, but Im 1/64th black and 1/8 Pueto Rican so.....

That is EXACTLY the way it is here where I live. We probably don't even have 5 black people in our school. We have 1 black girl that is in high school and a couple in elementary and thats all. I am not racist at all, I don't think, but I just don't ever see myself marrying a black guy. For the reason above, like you said.

[Mijada]

At this point in time I'd date just about anybody. My life is so boring right now. :lol:

[Rhiannon]

yes, if he made me happy

[Kay Scarpetta]

Sure. I mean, there's no difference except the color of your skin. Not a big deal at all.

[¤I Love Clay Aiken¤]

I could care less what you were. However, I personally am not attracted usually to different races- nothing prejudice Im just not attracted. But if I was, then yes.

[pandora_spocks]

Sure, as long as we both have the same interests and such. Basically, the same thing I would look for in any other girl so color doesn't really matter.

Kiff does her justice. :p I mean he spent all those years in Branigan's shadow (And behind him when climbing up a ladder. That outta make any person sick. :barf: ) I think Amy's good for him. And the Wong's will get their grandchild. Two birds with one stone!

[DetectiveGriffin]

In regards to the human race thing, thats not really fair. I mean, if aliens came by, and they were cool, id totally go out with them. Like clark kent or something - hes cool. and then there's mork - he ruled.

theres a long list of totally right on aliens. it breaks my heart that you are so closed minded.

<GGGGGG>

If you wanna look at it like that then... have you ever snubbed off a dog who was obviously attracted to you simply because it was a dog?

[DetectiveGriffin]
