I just thought I would ask. It seems some people here are not comfortable with interracial couples, and I was curious how common the attitude is..
I have dated this black woman, but she moved to Arizona. We go out together when she comes back to visit. The only problems I have seen in other people are by black men. Actually confronted a few times because I had no right to date a black women.

Just how is it us whites are the racists?
 
Wtf? Who still thinks this way? Point me to their retarded asses this instant so I can point and laugh.

There are plenty out there. I see it from time to time.
 
I'm willing to bet that the great, vast majority of straight men would refuse to go on a date with a man. That doesn't mean that the great, vast majority of straight men have a problem with gay men, gay relationships, or gay marriage. You are inventing a correlation out of thin air, and calling me names does nothing but make you look childish.

People's opinions on principles can be informed by reality. To shut out reality and base a decision on one principle, say Liberty, can lead to bad outcomes, say lack of donor organs/marrow for mixed race kids. That's just an example to illustrate one aspect of reality.

I get it, you want to restrict discussion to people basing their decisions on philosophical principles, but there are plenty of people about who inform their world view by looking at reality. You're taking a religious approach - divorce facts from faith - and others are more comfortable taking a scientific approach - bring in reality and let's see what I think of what I discover.
 
I think a lot of black women are beautiful
I only find a few attractive, probably less than other races. However, I have dated three black beauties during my life so far.

The problem is that statistics can be distorted if the sample is not carefully controlled. And even when they are controlled, when it comes to human behavior you can be subject to large margins of error. I think it's a mistake to cite statistical evidence from an online dating site as accurately reflecting reality.

And you're completely free to disregard all that data.
 
Why on Earth wouldn't they be acceptable?

It was a loaded poll that reeked of administrator bias. From what I can tell, nobody has said that it's unacceptable. To take that approach, they'd have to support its criminalization. Therefore everyone finds it acceptable. Just a few focus more on probabilities than being a big wet blowjob to the popular opinion machine.

I don't disregard it. My contention is the notion of putting it forward as an accurate reflection of reality.

Use your imagination. Jews, as a people, have achieved remarkable representation in the arts and sciences. They dominate the Nobel Prize category. Recent research is showing that their representation in math competitions for youth is declining, and that they're no longer so dominant in science programs nor in other measures of intellectual power. There is a large degree of concern about the high out-marriage rate in the Jewish community.

So how should Jews balance the principle of Liberty against their desire to maintain a cohesive Jewish identity? Should Jewishness disappear from the Earth in order to enhance liberty? Should the remarkable fruit produced by Jewish intellect be lost to humanity in order to have liberty be expressed more fully?

Use whatever gibberish you like to justify your off-topic data, I'm still going to call it off-topic.

And seeing how I don't have those totalitarian impulses, I'm not going to try to stop you from doing that.

Someday you'll get it through your head how foolish you're making yourself look when you say things like that. Until then, you'll continue to entertain me. Dance, monkey, dance.
 
Are you trying to argue that black women are objectively ugly?

There... uhh... Might actually be something to that.

I believe studies have been conducted which show that men of basically all races, except Africans themselves, tend to rate African women as being less objectively attractive than those of other races.

On the flip side of that, African men tend to be rated as being more attractive than men of other races by women regardless of their race.

The suggested reason for this, IIRC, was that African peoples tend to carry more testosterone than other races on average. This results in their men being perceived as being "manlier" than the norm, but, unfortunately, simply happens to have the same effect on their women as well.

Go figure. :shrug:

I'll see if I can't dig up a link.

Mankind still has Asians, and they have xenophobic tendencies with regard to relationships.

People can say what they want, my sisters will rock your world. Ask Hugh Grant about it! ;)

That's hilarious. I spotted "...gibberish you like to justify your off-topic data"....and thought "I'll bet anyone $50 I know exactly who he is talking to " Haha, I was right.

How does your post even address anything he said. You're really difficult to follow.
 
I don't think I even think about it.

You think that there might be a cause and effect in play here?

I don't know about all that objectively attractive stuff. If most men are like me, that tends to vary depending on what mood I'm in, and what recent experiences I have had.
