I don't think people owe anyone any explanation on their relationships. If you want to see a stereotype, that's on you. It's not really what this thread is about, though. Stereotypes in relationships transcend racial issues. Old guy/younger chick. Attractive chick/ugly dood. Young guy/older chick.

Yes they do.

He's rich and she's a golddigger, he's an aging rocker and she's an aspiring model, and he's mature while she needs a guy who can "keep up" with her.

All seem obvious.
 
"Are interracial couples acceptable" ranks right up there with:

  • Should women have the right to vote?
  • How long should you beat your wife for speaking her mind in public without your permission?
  • Is it okay to use lethal force to defend yourself against a faggot when he hits on you?
  • What do you think about sundown towns?
I could keep going, but I trust my point has been made.
 
Why?

I'm actually one of those stereotypes. It's no one else's business what goes on between us. People will judge no matter what we say is really going on. :shrug:

You are right on both accounts. It's not my business, and I'll still judge.
 
Everybody? Hmmmm. I was never taught such a thing. There is nothing in the Bible saying it is wrong to date or marry a person of a different race.
There are a few incidental mentions of race in the Bible (that Ethiopian's skin was different, Jeremiah 13:23), but there is nothing saying one race is superior to another. Moses was married to a Cush ite (Ethiopian) woman (Numbers 12:1-16), and God was angry with Aaron and Miriam for criticizing that marriage.
The only thing that seems to be a theme throughout the Bible is to avoid being yoked to an unbeliever.

Most people are more comfortable with their own kind. That is the case in the animal kingdom as well . But take bears for example, you have a white polar bear that has been known to mate with a black grizzly. The result, grolar bears.

Did you think I was being serious there?
 
so, if your kids/grandkids came home with a partner of another race, you wouldn't have a problem with it?

Not at all. Why would you ask the question? It seems to assume that I believe other races are inferior and that I would have a problem but provides no rationale for why I should have a problem.

Well obviously I did. :lol: Guess I just haven't been around long enough Gardener to know when you are joking.
 
Honestly, I wouldn't have much of an issue with interspecies relationships if say we found intelligent life on other worlds that was basically similar to us.

Too late. Already happened...

I don't care what anyone thinks. I think white girls are awesome!!!! ;)
 
Do I have a problem with it? Nope. Do I have stereotypical opinions of it? Yup.

Anecdotally, being from Michigan, I've seen a number of these relationships. Damn near all involved a trailer-trash "baby mama" and a man that's essentially done nothing with his life except dodging cops (often unsuccessfully). The reverse has always involved a successful black woman with another successful white man.

For every German supermodel and Grammy-winning artist, there are a thousand white trash sluts with deadbeat, wannabe thugs.

But hey - doesn't bother me. I've never met a white woman that prefers black men that I consider a real loss to my dating pool.

Unleash, people. I'm ready.

Heyyyy he showed up! Right on time.
 
So the fact that I take a poll is offensive lol. That is a ridiculous notion. If you're curious about the ID of the poster, he is in the basement.


Why would I lie and make up a story as reason to post a poll? That makes no sense.

I don't know what threads you frequent, but I haven't seen a single post or single person claim they are uncomfortable with interracial couples nor have I seen any posts that even remotely imply they feel that way. Simply a bogus poll designed to generate offense where none currently exists.

Yes, you can go on just because that list is pretty funny :lol:
 
If I may ask, why wouldn't you consider it for yourself? Is it an attraction thing, or more to the point, lack thereof?

Yeah, that's it. I've never been attracted to non-white women (tans are not a turn-off, though) . Perhaps a couple exceptions.

If a man was assaulting me, I would use deadly force to defend myself - regardless of orientation.
 
Thank liberals and an activist Supreme Court for making interacial maraiages and relationships legal and acceptable to nearly everyone. It won't be very long before gay marriages and relationships will be just as much of a non-issue.
 
Here is the issue, this is dp. I am asking and others are expecting people to come outright and defend that they are uncomfortable with interracial relations. That is asking a lot.

In real life, I have seen it in a lot of people I respect. The guy playing Santa Claus at my mom's work told her he felt disgusted when another employee put her mixed grandchildren on his lap. He was grossed out by them and called them oreos.

My family knows that guy.

My own mom has made comments on genetic diseases only certain races carry like sickle cell, being passed on to children, grandchildren etc. I think she sees it as an issue in terms of having children. She also works in medicine and research, so its her field. Though she outright said she wants whoever I date to treat me well.

Not sure how she would honestly feel if I told her I was pregnant by a black guy though.

I have seen girls my age in interracial relationships, and their families don't like it. I have heard them called mud sharks and damaged goods. And let's not forget middle eastern ethnic groups in this discussion. They are a controversial group in many ways in USA.

My hair is brownish red. I don't hear many people say they prefer those two colors.



The way I read that post, it was on par with my preference for brunettes and redheads over blondes.

There's nothing wrong with a Middle Eastern woman choosing a white husband over beatings, subjugation, and a looming threat of an honor kill.

Pics...pics of grolar bears.

I am married to a person of foreign origin and don't give a flying f*&^ what anyone thinks.

He is infinitely more educated and dignified than most west of Scotland grolar bears.
