I am white but have almost always been attracted to asians & hispanics. I was even married to a Korean for 2 years. Even though I am a very fair, blonde white woman, everyone in my immediate family had dark hair & dark eyes. My father & one of my brothers could almost pass for hispanic. So I think that is where I got my attraction to dark hair & dark eyes. But I don't see people soley by thier packaging. I am currently in the happiest relationship ever! And he happens to be white & blue eyes.
I do suspect, however, those who date pretty much exclusively out of their race are unhappy with their race or family. The black men who date thier co-worker who happens to be white don't bother me, but the black who seems to think white women are better than black women are racists.
Some white women who go after black men are wanting to shock their parents. But to judge all bi-racial pairs as such is unfair.

People date outside of their race for several reasons. Some are not happy with their own race, but I don't think this is a prevalent reason for people dating outside of their race. I think the main reason people date ouside of their race is, heck, why not? Some people are "blind" to race, they simply don't care about a person's race, they care about who that person is and if they like that person for who they are, why should race matter??? These people are open minded and not racist, it's really not a very hard concept, more of us should be like that. And as for who mostly dates outside of their race, I'm not sure - but I'll venture a guess that it's black males, just because that's mostly what I've seen.

People who date people of other races don't generally see "race" as a problem. They simply find someone they are attracted to and become involved with them. I don't think the pigmentation of one's skin is even an issue with them.
Maybe when everyone starts thinking like these people do, then bigotry will be a thing of the past...and Al and Jesse will be out of a career. :)

Feelings do not know race! There are only males and females. All males see EVERY female, and every female see all MALES that come into view.
No one says, oops, here comes some other race and then close their eyes.
Nature does not allow us to chose who we will love!

Its probably because theyre not racist. I love men of all races, period. Black, white, asian, spanish and indian. But at this point and time in my life, I am dating a black man.

Perhaps because they don't see race (color). We are all the same race (human... duh), that's why we can all reproduce with each other (like dogs... lol). Just the positioning on the planet changes our skin appearance.

I guess its just for difference.
I'd date just about anyone, im REALLY white, but i'm just as attracted to blacks as whites and spanish as asian..
i guess its just that i'm not picky,
i luv every culture for its certain aspect.
the world wouldn't b half as fun with just one race
it'd b pretty boring!!! lol
