No, there's nothing wrong with it. Scientifically speaking there is only one race...the human race. I believe all people descended from Adam and Eve, and we're all related at some point in history. The races we see now are just the result of people with similar attributes breeding in isolation. As new technology has made travelling and migrating easier we find more interacial families whom I believe more closely resemble our distant ancestors.

No, I am white, my husband is a Mexican imigrant. Our marriage and love for eachother is great! We have been happily married for 3 years now. Occationally, we have cultural conflict (mostly with raising our 2 year old.) I have learned 2 important things about "cultural difference"
1. I grew up and still live in suburban Chicago (very racially mixed area,) most people here are generally the same. Meaning a black, white, arabic, hispanic person would have the same views and interests as one another. The skin color doesn't matter.
2. Many of me and my husband's so called cultural differences are not cultural- they are that he grew up in Mexico ON A FARM, and I grew up in the CITY. People from a Nebraska farm would be different from NewYork City people too.
In today's world, interacil dating is common and should not be frounded upon.

No there is nothing wrong with dating someone that isn't the same skin color as you...i believe that if you like that person so much you wouldn't care about looks or color...I'm a mexican and personally i don't think about having boyfriends that are only mexican i like to try different kinds of culture...i like to see different things so why not try something different...you got to understand that the world has changed a lot it doesn't matter anymore if you're with someone else that's a different color than you..and if you care about the color dude your messed up what you should really care about is the feelings and personality of the other person...

No theres nothing wrong with it. I just started liking my own race last year. I don't know why but growing up every black girl would remind me of my sister and I'd get turned off by that. All through elementary I was into white girls. By junior high it was Latinas. And now I like black girls and Asians. But particularly Asians. Its cool to date outside your race and I think it should be done more often. Who knows maybe a century from now we'll all be mixed races.

i am going to speak from a mixed persons point of view. It is awesome that the races are starting to accept races mixing. The younger generations are embracing is where as the older generations are speaking against it. You just have to know what you are getting into. You have to be willing to accept the remarks, looks, and disappointment in peoples face. I get all this with who ever i date and it is fine with me because I love being me. and it is cool to be able to adjust to different races. Just to give you a comment i had the other day. I had a new neighbor move in a few days ago and i went over to say hi and see if i could help her she replied you aren't full ****** are you? Or you can get comments like you couldn't get anybody in your own race and they will say ****** lover or cracker lover. Just keep your head up and know that the inside is what count and some of the world is blind to it so stand strong and believe in your heart that is what you want.

I think the most important thing about dating is to make sure he other person treats you with respect. It shouldn't matter the race of the person. I dated outside of my race when I was a teenager. That was 15 years ago. It wasn't very popular in my school and I got a lot of flack from people. I was happy, he was great and we had a great year together. I've dated plenty of guys in my race that were real jerks. My parents and family supported me. In fact, when I talked to my mom about dating outside of my race she told me she did in high school too. And that was in the 60's. The guy was Vietnamese and this was during the Vietnam War, so she had a lot to deal with too. Her family was supportive of her too. If you have the support of your family and friends go for it! You may find a really great relationship!

No,there is nothing wrong with dating someone of a different color at all. I actually have a crush of somebody of a different race. It just depends whats inside not the way they look on the outside. It doesn't matter what anybody else says or does.Follow your heart and you will be okay.

Who ever makes you happy, comfortable and confident in your own skin. You will find a person one day that will listen and understand everything about you. They will worship everything you stand for. Love is color blind, you can't help who you fall in love with. When i first met my husband and i knew he was attracted to me my friend tried to set us up...i was like no way. I automatically judged him because he was Mexican. Once i actually got to know who he was i fell fast and hard for his charm, personality, good looks etc... he melted my heart. After all it had nothing to do with his race, it was his big heart and the respect he showed for me!
6 yrs later and he's still the only man i have ever loved. Don't look at someones skin color, that's what's wrong with this world today, too many people who automatically judge for all the wrong reasons. Follow your heart babe, only you will know what makes you happy.

No, there's nothing wrong with dating out of your race. First discuss it with your parents and be very casual about it. You want them to be on your side. Give them the name and number of the parents of the person you're going to date and they will be less likely to fight it. Then relax - it's just another person you're getting to know.

Its perfectly fine as long as you can overcome the obsticals in the relationship and there will be some no doubt.People stare make comments in public,family sometimes doesn't approve,Problems at work when people talk,and if you have children the obsticals they will face....as long as your up for all of that its cool,but those things will happen no doubt
