I personally don't care but a lot of people that I know don't approve of it.

I am 1/2 white and 1/2 cuban and my husband is Mexican. My older brother only dates black girls, the 2nd oldest only likes white trash, my sister's husband is Italian and Columbian, 1 of my younger brother's girlfriend is into goth and the youngest only likes Middle Eastern or Indian (with a dot) girls. My dads 3 oldest kids are all white, I am mixed and the 2 youngest brothers are 1/2 white and 1/2 mexican.........I think I would be a hipocrit to say that when my children are old enough to date that they can date a certain race when they are mixed and have mixed cousins.......All I ask for is that whoever my children date, whatever color they may be......is that they are good, honest, hard working people and that by their side, my child is happy cause one day my husband and I will die and my children will have their happiness and that is what I hope I can leave my children with before I pass. Same thing will Gay people, let them be who they are and leave them alone. If one of my children where to tell me they were gay, I'd probaby be taken aback by it, but i would never turn my children away...........I myself have never been attracted to a black man forsay.......I've always been attracted by someone that shares my culture and religion and I guess that is why I married a mexican......not the same, but same language, alot of the same principles and customs........everyone is different and raised differently. I have a cousin that is married to an Arab man and my husband and i have even talked about sending them to a mosc just so my children can learn the culture and thae language. I want to my children to grow up cultured and not ignorabt people that put people down for their language, color or customs........Ignorant people are those who don't know or understand and those who are too afraid to learn.

I do not have a problem with it, nor do I think the majority of the country has a problem with it. I have found that many, but certainly not all, African-American women have a problem with Inter-Racial couples. I will not go into the reasons for this, but I did learn about a bunch of them from an earlier post regarding African-American women and their opinions on AA males dating white women. All of that having been said, most of society is very accepting of inter-racial couples.

I personally think it shows how much you care for the personality of the person you are dating instead of their looks. By dating someone out of your own race you are saying I do not care what others think of you I care about you and who you are not where you came from.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...It should not matter what other people think. As long as you feel comfortable with your decision. Those people that your worried about are not going to love you the way that man or woman is going to love you. No matter if that person is purple, green, or yellow.

I don't see anything wrong with it. I just feel there may be problems just like there are when people marry of different relegions. It may not be you that faces these problems but maybe your children. It's a bumpy road in a perfect world and as long as you can make it through these things....great.

There's a lot of small-minded people. I'm being polite by calling them small-minded. Honestly I think it's great and the more the better. Love isn't defined by the colour of our skin or the the church we worship in. Love is greater than all prejudices.

I think it is fabulous.............I have had a wonderful vision of the world being totally tan (all the people the same color) They I am sure somebody would come along and find something else about us all that is different and that they could fight about but............just for a little while the world could be brown and everyone look at everyone else the same........Wouldn't that be nice....even if it only lasted a little while :-)

I was married for 7 years to a African American man. I feel as the choice is yours if you love someome the color of their skin should not be a issue......But I know there are people out there that are close minded racist but to each there own!!!

I say to each it's own. The color of a person's skin should not be a factor in a relationship. What should matter is if the person loves, respects, and treats you well.

I don't think there is anything wrong with it. I'm white and I date all races. Most of my family doesn't approve, but it makes me happy so I do it.
