Just wanted to know what everyone here thinks about interracial relationships? and what their families/loved ones feels about it.

For me it's never been an issue really. Meeting people from different cultures is very fascinating. However my parents are very racist and growing up in a family of 5 children, (I'm the youngest one) I'm the only one to have had interracial relionships They are very racist towards blacks.

I'm asian but it seems like mostly the girls I've dated have been white . I've only had a few asian gfs. I was interested in this girl that was black but in the end I knew it would just never work so I never pursued it . I never really had in the back of my mind to just date outside my race, it just happened that way. You can't help who you fall for.

So..

1)what are your views towards interracial dating?
2)have you dated or are currently in an interracial relationship?
3)does your family approve? or would they?
4)are your parents an interracial couple?
etc....

I have no problem with interracial dating at all. Many of my friends and co-workers are of different cultures, and races, but when I speak to them, I dont notice any differences.

Not at the moment, but I have a huge crush this girl who is of a different race/religion... to bad she's got a bf.

As far as I know, they would. He said he would have a problem with me if I was gay (he's quite traditional), but no problem about interracial relationships.

No.

Its too bad your parents are against it. I took an anthropology course in Uni, and we discussed the topic of race and genetics. Only the tiniest fraction of a persons DNA contributes to race, yet people put so much emphasis on race and skin colour when determining the differences b/w people. People have to learn to appreciate other cultures. Good luck with everything.

same here
dad chinese, mom half chinese half russian <----- weird mix, i know

my current bf is also a mut (half norwegian, quarter polish, and quatrter italian). my partents seem cool about it. my dad might be having small problems but he doesnt say he does, my mom is cool
my bf's parents seem to be cool with it as well

i really dont see a problem with interracial relationships, maybe theres only a difference of culture (my bf cant stay away from my mom's food hehe) but other than that, we are pretty much alike
its only recently that there are more and more interracial couples, which is a good thing. ppl are overcoming culture barriers and seeing through color, something to celebrate i guess

1. i'm fine with interracial dating.
2. once dated a mexican girl (she was HOTT)(i'm a european "caucasian/white" boy)
3. family approves/will approve in future.
5. parents are european "caucasian/white" people
6. although i've mostly dated "white" girls....it just ends up like this somehow....

1)I don't have anything against interracial dating. I support multiculturalism so I'm cool with it. As others have said, it doesn't matter what colour the skin is. It's all about the person itself. Although i think kids growing up in interracial families can be hard. Personally coming from an interracial family it was hard growing up. I experienced different cultures and traditions. I didn't really know which race i belonged to.

2)Yes I have dated girls from different backgrounds.
3)Parents don't really mind.
4)Yes

well..Interracial dating...Im all for it. Diversity is great.

have I ever dated? well..not really dated. But I was once involved with a half Japanese half caucasian girl, and she was fuckin sweet. But that didnt work out. My parents would probably be approving, but I dont know about my grandparents..they are,well old. and old fashioned

1 & 2 : I don't see why race should matter when it comes to dating. I think it's great when different cultures meet. Being half-African and living in Norway, I've only dated interracially. (Even if I'm half-Norwegian, I wouldn't go for being white) This is not something i think over though. If i fall for a girl, race is the last thing i think about...

3 & 4: My mum is Norwegian and my dad is from Gambia (West-Africa) so the chance of getting trouble from my parents for dating interracial is pretty small.
