Does race matter?

Question

I was just curious to know how many of you would prefer or feel more comfortable dating or being in a relationship with a person of the same race. In contrast, how many of you don't see race as an issue, and that you are open to any person regardless of race?

Answer 1

Race is a non-issue for me.

Answer 2

It depends on the type of Race. Some Pilgrims like a Car Race while other subjects of the King like a Horse Race. Myself, I prefer a Race to the Finnish. Now if your talking colors, I prefer my date to be in either Black or Turquoise Tights along with a Black Mini Skirt and Black or White open toed sandals with those sexy wraps around the calves. Then Lip Gloss and Highlights will nail me to the bed, regardless of Race.

Answer 3

For me race does not matter and I do not care what others think. If someone comes along that I like I pursue the chances. The problem today is too many people still consider race important. Why? I don't know There are several things to consider when deciding to date outside your race. For instance: How do you feel about how much your family cares? Friends? What about the other person's friends and family? If you don't care or it does not matter then it shouldn't matter to you but there are consequences throughout society when one decides to date outside their race. Weigh your feelings and decide how much you are willing to deal with then decide weather you wish to face them. I say if the person interests you go for it. The benefits outweigh the consequences!

Answer 4

a lot of people say race doesn't matter but probably have never dated out side of there own race. Im going to say im not sure, I have only had one relationship with some one of a different race, I would like to think Im a person that doesn't judge a person by the color of there skin, but I do find my self attracted more to white sporty guys, so its hard to say. I would hope that If some one of another race asked me out, I wouldn't say no just because of their race. I am a person who likes some one for who they are not what color they are! But like I said dating is a different story, but I would hope it's not a problem.

Answer 5

My fiance happens to be of the same race as me, only because we fell in love. Before that, both of us dated people of various races, so race is not an issue to either of us. Some people find it an issue because of their parents or because of future children, but not too many.

Answer 6

Race is not an issue while dating.....the issues start when the couple settles down and starts a family. Different races definitely means different cultures. Unless each in the couple is willing to give up some of their routines, life would be tough.....

Answer 7

Race doesn't matter,but I am very cautious on the idea of dating outside of my race. I have tons of guys from other races coming to me asking to go out. It's not that I would be embarrassed but I don't know how to communicate with them as I would with someone of my race. African American women are seen as sex symbols to most men and I really try to avoid that also.

Answer 8

I'm comfortable dating a person of any race

Answer 9

I dont think race does matter, but seeing that Ive 2 girls that were white, one asian, and I'd noticed our relationship is less than brief, and getting with three Latinas (all from Mexico) noticing that those were more than brief to long lasting, I'd say u should go for someone ur own culture, only bcuz u dont c any thing different, well somthings

Answer 10

In my opinion you fall in love with whomever you feel comfortable with regardless of race yes it would be much harder to work with but you could be missing out on someone who could make you happy.... but I am most comfortable with people my own race bt will not turn down an opportunity to date someone of the opposite race!!!!

Answer 11

Race doesn't matter when you find the right person. I think people are comfortable with their own race in general, but I don't think it stops people from dating outside of their race.
