Brian's onto something there. Y'all should stop to think how much of it is socialization and how much of it is your individual opinion that was somehow formed in a vaccuum of independent thought and was not influenced by your environment. Americans in particular like to sweep socialization under the rug.
Really? I'd definitely date an Asian, and I rarely ever see any around here, in fact the only ones I used to see were back in High School when they had Foreign Exchange student things going on. And that didn't exactly happen everyday.

I don't see chicks as black and white and asian. I see them as individual. I see them as attractive or not, as intelligent or not, as someone I want to date or someone I don't want to date. I've dated a mixed-race girl and a bunch of white girls. I've never dated an Asian or oriental girl simply because the opportunity has never come up. There's no need to separate them into races at all.
Yeah, its all dependant on the person to me... although, out of the extremely limited number of guys I find attractive, black men tend to hit the top, I don't know why, because I'm rarely attracted to anyone, and I definitly don't look at people that way, just noticed it in passing (I'm white, and doesn't mean that I don't find some white people attractive either)
The closest I've gotten to 'dating' anyone so far is my Vietnamese friend (who is from there, so about the cultural barriers, he's a mix of American and Vietnamese now)-- I don't care about the race, and barely the attractiveness in the end, but the personality, and if it came down to it, the beliefs (although, I wouldn't mind being with someone with polar viewpoints and beliefs than me, as long as they were good natured to understand that everyone has their own beliefs, and so be it. Like a friendly rivarly, although thats rare, and hard to expect, so easier to find someone w/ similar belief system)
In regards to genetics... I wouldn't put that much thought into it, planning the genetics of your children is rather creepy, and sure to lead to disappointment. Genetics isn't well enough known yet to make those kinda decisions, some are dominant/recessive, some are blends, we don't really know (like eyes are dominant/recessive, brown/black being dominant over blue/green, yet then there is still hazel, which is a blend, so not so easily determined).
I think its fine to be attracted to a certain race or facial feature or whatever, but its also a tad strange to onlookers sometimes (my uncle has dated ONLY Asian women..., so my cousins from his side are half-Japanese, half-Korean, and half-Philippino, kinda interesting and strange for us, but so be it)
The chef Gordon Ramsey is fussy about food then he is about cars. Does that mean he loves cars more then he does food?
It is strange how assumptions can be made unanimously by people.
About what you said about genes canceling out- I think it actually does do that with noses. Mine does that, my mother's nose is wider and my fathers is narrow, but native American looking. Mine is the feminine middle ground. Hair is like that too. But as far as skin conditions and everything is, they dont cancel eachother out. It's possible your kids will have either dry, greasy, or combination skin.
I agree with Tsiiki, the reason why it might come of strange to people, and possibly your coworkers, is because it almost seems as if you hate your own genetics. It's especially this way when your a minority with a history of being oppressed idealically by another society. If you hate your wide nose, your dark skin, your tight curly hair, or even your slated eyes, or blonde locks ,if you see others that look like you and feel angry or disgusted or that you are climbing the social ladder by marrying outside your race, people are saddened and almost maddened by that because they feel its as if you are saying they are ugly. Anyway, that's not what I believe. I have been asked this before, and I dont feel self hate or anything of the sort.

Not as much as having AS. There isn’t such a racial problem in England. AS is a hidden disability, for me this year it is going to be even more hidden. The biggest problem is that I am opposite of being black.
Do you realise how insanely racist that post could be interpreted as being?
I'm mostly black and I tend to agree. A lot of black women are loud, obnoxious and anti-intellectual. I hardly have anything to do with black women because of the whole obnoxiousness issue. I only make exceptions if they're over 40 and have their lives together or if they're your bohemian types.

I do know what you mean. My last husband was Korean. Imagine that.

This is an interesting statement. I surely don't 'act' like a black person, never did. I never thought it related to asperger's. Why would this be?
