I don't care. My last bf was Korean. *shrug* It really makes no difference to me as long as they're a good person.

As for the intention of this thread: How can you have a feeling in any way about it? It's the couple's business, not yours.

And just to be the jerk to bring this up: genetically speaking, whether you like it or not, humans are one race. Therefore, an interracial relationship between two humans can technically not exist. It is time to finally move away from this term when talking humans, as long as you don't wish to put yourself into the same category as dogs.

Whether such a thing as race exists has been a hot topic of biological interest lately. Most biologists now agree that there is no such thing as race, and that the concept is a social construct.

Ahh, so thats why we are able to differentiate a skeleton into caucasoid, mongoloid or negroid? There are deffinetly races, but that shouldnt matter. In the end they are people.

I am in some ways a product of an interracial marriage, but I dont think that I technically am bi racial when it is considered that Caucasians are spread from Western Europe, the Middle East, the Mediterranean, and India.

Well, my boyfriend is actually Japanese and he is the sweetest boy. He is gentle and charming as well. ^.^ I don't have any problem with it either. It gives you a chance to learn about their culture and be apart of it. I hope someday I can become apart of his. :3 I love the Japanese culture and the people because they are really nice people. Most of my friends are Japanese as well.

You might want to read this. hyperlink

Yes, there are differences between races, physical appearance at the very least. We should just learn to be tolerant about the differences rather than try to deny that there are differences.

I don't understand. I really don't understand whats so wrong about marrying somebody you love, be it a person of a different race, or the same gender. People are f****d up, love is love.

I think interracial relationships are fine, in fact I am currently in one I'm african american and my boyfriend is half white and half thai. I think that people shouldn't be afraid to love outside of their race.

I think they are fine.
My first crush in 3rd grade was mexican.
I don't discriminate.
Now if I wasn't attracted to someone, and they happened to be another race, and they got mad at me, I would be mad.
But, it's all skin, so no big.
