Interracial dating -BreathingBody

  Author:  61966  Category:(Debate) Created:(12/21/2002 2:13:00 PM)
This post has been Viewed (5277 times)

I don't want to make anyone mad because I know this is a touchy subject but I just want to know what everyone else thinks about it.

I was always taught (since I was a little girl) that it was wrong to date or marry out of your race but then again i'm angered that I can't love someone (as more than a friend) who isn't the same race, I almost feel like I would be descriminating. My purpose of this post is to see what everyone else thinks about it. To you, does it seem wrong? Does it even matter to you?

Date: 12/21/2002 2:23:00 PM  From Authorid: 56381    Nope....its just a skin color to me. A person is a person, thats what I have always been taught and that is what I have always felt in my heart. You cant decide who you love, and your doesnt descriminate. So I will love anyone no matter what there race may be. Just how I feel though.... xoxo,  
Date: 12/21/2002 2:24:00 PM  From Authorid: 56381    And your heart doesnt descriminate***** there we go! Sorry had a typo! xoxox,  
Date: 12/21/2002 2:27:00 PM  From Authorid: 28946    Personally, I have no problems with it. I always figured on the inside we were the same anyway. Heavenly Father loves all of us so why should humans make a difference. Humans loving humans is fine as we are the same species after all.  
Date: 12/21/2002 2:30:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 61966    I agree with what you are both saying! I want to take it that way too. I know that a person is still the same no matter what color they are but I just don't understand why my parents think it's so wrong.  
Date: 12/21/2002 2:35:00 PM  From Authorid: 28946    That is something only your parents can discuss with you on why they feel it is wrong. Some people among some races also feel that they should mix races. It seems there are reasons they feel are valid but I don't agree with their views.  
Date: 12/21/2002 2:38:00 PM  From Authorid: 49150    Things were still much different in your parents day. I don't see a problem with it myself. It's just your parents were raised in a less tolerant time. That doesn't make their beliefs right though and there is no excuse for racism.  
Date: 12/21/2002 3:33:00 PM  From Authorid: 56293    I have no problem with it. I have a cousin and aunt that are black, and I'm white. I look at them as I would any other person. Color isn't anything.  
Date: 12/21/2002 4:07:00 PM  From Authorid: 59639    i was taught that races shouldnt mix,but im also an adult now and i dont see how anybody could tell u who to love,right now im seein a black guy and if my parents knew they would be mad jus bcuz of the color of his skin....but if the knew him like i do,they would love him...he talks white,is very educated,and goes to church.....but my parents cant look past his skin and that disgusts me....all i can do is tell u to follow ur heart,and dont worry about what anybody else says *Kandi*  
Date: 12/21/2002 4:31:00 PM  From Authorid: 54668    Love because of Love,not because of what you were taught to do. Finding someone who would dedicate their lives to be with you,is a once in a lifetime thing...if they're a different color or religion---WHO CARES...its your choice,not your family's. if i had let my family run my life i'd be visiting with the men in the white coats right now...  
Date: 12/21/2002 4:32:00 PM  From Authorid: 14754    i do not have a problem with it...if you find love outside of your race...who care what your skin color is ...thats my opinion..  
Date: 12/21/2002 4:32:00 PM  From Authorid: 19772    Personally, to me a person is a person no matter what color they are but my family, like yours, feels very strongly that races shouldn't mix. My mother tries to tell me that it's the children who suffer, because they don't belong to either race then, they're a mutt. LOL I tried to explain to her that in this day and age there are very few people who aren't a mixture of about 3 or 4 races but she is old and set in her ways. I am pretty proud to say though that she doesn't treat my son, who is half Korean and half white, like a mutt. Trust your heart.  
Date: 12/21/2002 5:01:00 PM  From Authorid: 17014    If you want to get technical- no one is just one race. By now we are all a mixed breed. I'm Swede, German, Irish, Scandinavian and who knows what else. No one is 100% anything anymore. All of my nationalities have different variations of light and medium skin color, but yet I'm still considered caucasion. Japanese and Chinese are white, but are still singled out as that 'race'. See what I'm saying?
It doesn't really matter to me what people do or who they date, happiness is what counts in my book. Just my opinion. You were 'taught' to belive that way, but do you really feel that way?
  
Date: 12/21/2002 6:02:00 PM  From Authorid: 17417    OK I have two Caucasian Daughters and Two Afro-American Sons...I also have been Blessed with 14 Caucasian Grandchildren and 10 Afro-American Grandchildren need I say more ...Much Love In Spirit,  
Date: 12/21/2002 6:26:00 PM  From Authorid: 57225    I think that there should be no boundaries on who you can or can't love. its a personal choice, and love is a feeling that where i don't think you can pick and choose who you get. if you fall in love with someone, then that can't be helped, regardless of what race that person is. But then again, not everyone has an open mind about these kinds, like my dad..he has no problem w/ people of other races, he's friends w/ them, but when it comes to me being romantically interested in one, he freaks out, i don't really understand why, they are just people and the only difference is skin color, so i don't understand why it matters so much to him. the way i see it, if i ever fall in love with someone i'm going to hold tight to that person, and it doesn't matter what race they are. i also have no problems what so ever seeing interracial couples, and mixed babies are some of the most beautiful babies you'll ever see!  
Date: 12/21/2002 7:11:00 PM  From Authorid: 5252    i've always been taught the same as you. but i've dated so many that arent my race. i actually perfer guys that are not my race, i just find them more attractive. if my heart leads me to them, then that's who it will be.  
Date: 12/21/2002 7:13:00 PM  From Authorid: 50864    I think that it is a matter of personal choice . You date whom you chose There is no right or wrong in a general sense just waht is right or wrong for you  
Date: 12/21/2002 8:41:00 PM  From Authorid: 53052    eprsonally i look at it the same as religion is it wrong to date and marry out of your religion?  
Date: 12/21/2002 9:10:00 PM  From Authorid: 57225    religion and spirituality is a personal thing, and you shouldn't let religious or racial differences get in the way of love.  
Date: 12/21/2002 10:04:00 PM  From Authorid: 26452    I was taught not to judge someone by their looks, or race. It doesn't matter to me, if I have feelings for someone, I dont care what race they are. Love is Love, it knows no age, size, religion, or color.  
Date: 12/21/2002 11:59:00 PM  From Authorid: 22080    i say love knows no gender age or race  
Date: 12/22/2002 2:02:00 AM  From Authorid: 51070    Nothing wrong with interracial dating. One of my grandma's cousins married a black man. Or was it niece? Ah, well, it doesn't matter. You can love whoever you want, as long as they treat you well and respect you. As long as they're a nice person, that's all that counts. Skin color isn't everything.  
Date: 12/22/2002 6:37:00 AM  From Authorid: 28946    ^^^ ERROR ON ABOVE BCOMMENT FROM ME^^^ That is something only your parents can discuss with you on why they feel it is wrong. Some people among some races also feel that they *shouldn't* mix races. It seems there are reasons they feel are valid but I don't agree with their views.  
Date: 12/22/2002 7:31:00 AM  From Authorid: 58030    My parents are rather southern people they are small minded and somewhat racist, not to the point that they will not associate with people of other races they just talk about em, behind their backs. I have been raised this way but it didn't rub off on me, i still feel weird sitting there listening to them cus 2 of my best friends are black, so i could care less but I can't really see myself with someone just because my parents would most likely start cussing and, not in my house crud. but this is totally a personal choice if i have the desire to go out with someone of a different race i'll do so, i just haven't yet. ~*moonstorm*~  
Date: 12/22/2002 1:29:00 PM  From Authorid: 4614    I don't date white girls   
Date: 12/22/2002 5:57:00 PM  From Authorid: 61916    i think that two people are destined to be and if they happened to be a different color. so be it. Its just a color. the way the sun reflects off a person. If that changed u think the person would?
Date: 12/22/2002 5:58:00 PM  From Authorid: 57225    exactly!!!!!! -skyla-  
Date: 12/22/2002 8:18:00 PM  From Authorid: 42945    well I have quite a combination in my family, me and mine are white and they married into Lebanese, and I have great nephews who are half aboriginal, but when I come to think of it, I'm quite a mixture myself looking back in my family tree....hugs Zema  
Date: 12/23/2002 12:47:00 PM  From Authorid: 39370    Hmmm? Well, I dont know if I, personally, would do it. It's not that I'm in anyway agenst people of different races. It's just the I was brought up I suppose. But, if I found someone that I truly did love, then race wouldnt matter.  
Date: 12/23/2002 2:32:00 PM  From Authorid: 61897    I would like to know why people who are against it feel it's wrong. Like Skoola said, mixed children ARE some of the cutest you will ever see-obviously God encourages it, by making those babies turn out so beautiful. And you know what? Life is funny, people who are the most racist find themselves eating their words somehow-God must have a sense of humor, I'll tell you why: I have some friends who's parents where just like yours and their daughters ended up dating or marrying men outside their race and the parents ended up loving the boyfriends/husbands and their children to death. Also my grandfather was one of the most racist men I ever had the pleasure to know (may he rest in peace)he was always talking bad about minorities behind their backs and in their face(he didn't care). He was a well traveled man and on one of his trips to Mexico (he was Italian)he fell in love with my grandma and left his Italian wife for her(he still talked trash about Mexicans but he did stay with my grandma all his life up until the day he passed away of old age-go figure!)Here's another true example-this one mall about eleven years ago was about 99%percent frequented by only whites and skin-heads used to "patrol" the mall to make sure Hispanics and Blacks wouldn't "take-over" the mall. Sure enough one of them (the skin-heads)ended up falling in love with a hispanic girl and I don't know if they got married, but last time I saw them they had a baby together. And now-that mall is frequented by all kinds of people not just white(I'm referring to the H.I.P. for anyone who's from Chicago).=)

Date: 12/23/2002 2:39:00 PM  From Authorid: 61897    Oh, also I'm not prejudice but I always thought before, I would never date anyone of Middle Eastern decent. I didn't have a problem in dating any other races but just thought it wasn't in my preference to date Middle Eastern men and sure enough I ended up marrying my husband who is Middle Eastern.=)

Date: 12/26/2002 6:40:00 PM  From Authorid: 58923    I'm for interracial dating. If some people have a problem with it, thats their discriminatory view, and shouldn't stop people from find true love. I know some people say its hard on the kids, but its only hard on the kids because of people who interracial dating as wrong, and pass that discriminatory veiw onto their children.  
Date: 12/29/2002 7:27:00 PM  From Authorid: 39763    I was born into a Southern family. My family isn't really against people another race, I mean they don't mind me being good friends with one, but they wouldn't approve of me dating/marrying someone a different race than me. I guess most of it is because of what their children have to go through, being mixed, & what other people might say about the couple, because they're different colors. I think that is sad because personally I don't think it matters. I yoused to llike a black guy but now we're just friends. My other friends think like my family does, I guess because they were raised like me, not to date out of your race, except one of my friends. I respect her for not caring what race someone is & that you can love anybody no matter what race/religion thet are. Right now I respect my parents & their wishes for me. But if I ever do fall in love with someone who is a different color than me when I'm an adult, I will stay with them.  
Date: 1/6/2003 6:46:00 PM  From Authorid: 43200    I think there is nothing wrong with interacial dating....  
Date: 1/21/2003 12:39:00 PM  From Authorid: 13729    Its not wrong to date someone out of your race. Your only problem is that you have a racist mother or father who instilled that in you. Think of how narrow your window of dating is if you only stick to your race......Dont discriminate, and dont be angry, date who ever you want!!.......  
Date: 1/21/2003 3:14:00 PM  From Authorid: 58030    AHHHH seriously last night went to the mall with my parents we see a black guy and a white girl making out my mother after walking a ways away, "you ever do that you'll be kicked out of the house" my dad "yup on the outside lookin in" *sigh ~*moonstorm*~
