* If you began to be very attracted to someone of another race, how would your behavior differ from what it?

Question

would be toward someone of your own race?

*Taken from a book.

Answer 1

I believe it is always best to be myself, as honest as I can be in all of my relationships, both business and personal. Therefore, my behavior would be no different. In the end I suppose my behavior would become different because some people in society would treat us differently and that would anger me towards those people. I think the challenge would be to not allow other people's idiocy to change me into an angry bitter person.

Answer 2

I would not act any way different, but I would be cautious at first with that person to know that the person liked me for me and not because I am of another race. That person would have to be secure and confident because there are ignorant people in this world and there will always be someone who wouldn't approve. I would not care; the thing would be would he care. If the answer would not be a strong yes, then I can't be with that person.

Answer 3

It really depends on what race it was .I would really be careful of what i said making sure what I said wasn't taken the wrong way. I have a habit of being a prick and people who know me see it as part of my character which is usually pretty funny another race might not share the same sense of humor. And of course if i was "very" attracted to her as the question says i would be trying to impress both her and her family

Answer 4

First, I tend to fall head over heels when falling in love.

Second, I really have no kinship with my tribe ... everyone is a different race than me. Sadly, I do hold racism in me, and usually it is the smell first, then appearance, then social status. So, if were to be attracted to a someone of a different race (of whom I'm prejudice against), then I would have a hard time bonding with their family and their friends ... which is a large part of what I seek in a mate (good social status - including good family). The tuffest part of hanging out with their family, is the racism I would receive in turn. Many wish their childreen to marry within their own race, and being an outsider, it is typical to be ousted for an initiation phase; until I (the outsider) makes myself worthy in others eyes.

Answer 5

I think, unless they spoke a different language, an attraction would be the same, no matter what race they are. I mean, of course if they were like Asian, I would take my shoes off when I entered their home, or if they had a custom, I would do my best to fit in with (him), but as far as being myself, nothing would change. That's what makes me, Me! And if I want them to like me,possible have a relationship, then its that side of me I want them to get to know!

Answer 6

personally, im not attracted to people of my own race, i only like hispanics and dark skin.... im not really that into white guys. so i would act like anyone acts when they are attracted to someone. perhaps if i was attracted to someone of a very different culture I would act a bit nervous or shy, but I dont really see race as anything to differentiate people.

Answer 7

I might begin to emulate their attributes, associate with features of their personality or take interest in activities or topics of conversation that interested them.... much the same as people of the same race who find attraction do. It's a human thing; race is just one facet.

Answer 8

I would never behave differently. If I liked a person, I would hope that they liked me back... for who I am. It would be horrible if we ended up getting married, and I had to act like someone else the rest of my life!! I think someone like that would deserve an oscar!!

Answer 9

Why would the behavior be different

Answer 10

I don't think that I would be any different than I am now.
