Open to diversity in relationships. Encourage it.

If there's any woman on this site who doesn't agree with what @sassygirl3869 and @Donotbelieve have already said, I'll be very surprised.

@Donotbelieve Well, no this Atheist woman have not spoken. I won't date a guy from my other country -we are a mix of everything- ever.

What they said. I've never understood why race was an issue for anyone.

As a male member of my human family, I have had relationships, and will continue to have relationships, with ALL female members of my human family.

Depends if it is a sprint or a marathon.

Love and prefer interracial relationships over here!

I'm white. In my youth I've dated African Americans, Iranian, and Hispanic/Latinos.

Race means nothing to me. It's how they treat me that counts.

Raciam is our original sin.

Love is love. 🙂

I know a lot of people who married or long term dating with a person of a different ethnicity. In my city, I see lots of mixed couples. I have had good dating experiences with guys of different races. Choose who you like and trust. Live and let live.

I'm white. I was married for 30 years to a black man and we raised four kids together. Our marriage ended, not because of race, but because we grew apart and wanted different things. He was the love of my life, but that part of my life is done. I date occasionally, and when I do, race is not an issue.

When women tell me, "I only date black men." or "I don't like Mexican men." I tell them this...You are short-changing yourself. There are so many men out there who are so wonderful, and smart, and kind. I like men. I enjoy talking to men and spending time with them. Race, color, even religious beliefs don't matter much to me. I do draw the line at bible-thumpers and Trump supporters. 😉

I don't have a problem with race, in fact I have dated a few black guys. As long as they treat you right is what matters.

Love is love

People are people..love whomever you love!

A potential SO's race is not a consideration for me but personality is 🙂

Not an issue. We are all the same.

I could not dance if a gun was at my head though.

Just have to get used to that.

There's only one race, human. Fact. Anyone that says differently is admitting they refuse science and follow a personal bias.

I'm all about the swirl! As long as everyone is being treated right and are of consenting age, as someone else mentioned. My boyfriend is white and we have fun with all the dirty jokes about swirling. With metaphors like brown sugar, milk chocolate, white chocolate, cream, vanilla, cocoa etc, there's a lot of dirty levity to be found! It's pretty fun. 😛

Skin color doesn't matter to me.

I assume that is your family picture. It's beautiful! You all look happy.

We could all blow Sunshine out of our ass and say that love is love and that it doesn't matter. But when it comes to our personal preferences about relationships, to some, race does matter and it should. I certainly would not call an African American male who says that he adores, and will only date strong African American women racist. relationships are difficult because that's the nature of the Beast. When you take a relationship and you injected with cultural differences, it can become even more difficultr.. some black men do not find white females physically attractive and vice versa. I think it's unfair to label a person's personal preferences racist. We're all free to make choices, and we should be able to be free without being judged either way

I'm a white guy and I prefer to date Caribbean women.

I'm a white female and I refuse to date Hispanic males. Both of us are generalizing, but only I would be considered to be the racist.

@Kojaksmom refuse all of them? Why?

@4EvanSake I have some negative generalizations about Hispanics and Latinos in the same way that you positively generalize about Caribbean women.

All generalized statements are wrong, but...

In general, cities tend to be good. I've had a Nigerian partner in rural Virginia, and it was pretty bad. But then I dated someone from Kenya in DC, and no one batted an eye.

Now that I think about it... race in America involves lots of history and interactions that I really don't understand. The more time I spend in this country, the deeper I realize that it goes. This may be why the people of other races who I've dated have all come from overseas as well.
