When you see an interracial couple, does it bother you?

Personally, i have no problem with interracial couples. Some people however are not like that. For example... in some parts of our country, if you see a black man with a white woman, it is totally unacceptable. Why? I think its you and your partners choice. Please tell me what you think.

I've don't have a problem with IRR's. I use to date/had relationships with white guys (I'm black). My father-in-law, is black and his current wife, is white and I just love them. As long as there's no type of abuse being allowed, love should come from within.

never understood why people are bothered by skin color in any situation. It just has never been an issue for me. To me it just seems ignorant to put any generalizations into someon's skin color. Besides, no matter the circumstances you can't help who you fall in love with.

I don't think it really should matter to anyone. It's the couples choice. And if they love each other than why not?

Things like interracial couple should be considered as part of life. After all most of us do believe we have the same origin, be it a viewpoint from religion or otherwise. I think those who feel bothered have some superiority feeling or actually jealous of the situation. If we want to judge a person based on race I believe many of us have mixed blood. Technically I am not of pure blood so there is no real reason why I should be upset over mixed marriages. As long as they are happy with each other and do not create trouble I will let them be. all the best, rosdimy

I have no problem with it. In fact i encourage everyone to open up to dating outside of your race. I myself am in an interracial relationship. My girlfriend is Asian and I am Hispanic. I have never dated an Hispanic before...ive dated white, black, white/black mix, and now Asian. I think your acceptance of it depends on how and where you were raised. My girlfriend and i were both raised in diverse places so we are used to not being only surrounded by our own race. Since I am in college...i get exposed to even more diverse people..and seeing as most colleges are populated by Asians, i guess i have a high change of dated them lol.

I see no problem in this. It seems to be coming more of the norm these days anyways. My sister is white and married a black man. At first we were leary about this relationship. When my other sister showed us who my sisters boyfriend was, I thought she was joking. He is a big black guy. He was actually pretty scary looking, but once cleaned up he looks like a nice looking guy and he is very nice. They have been married for 7 yrs now.

I think it is no one else's business if someone is married to a person of another race. I am white and I am married to a Latino and sometimes people consider that interracial and sometimes they don't. But to be perfectly honest with you I don't care what other people think about us or our kids. I think it is a personal choice. People will always have their opinions but if they don't agree with others they can just keep them to themselves. Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

No i dont think i should have any problem with this.As it is completely their choice i am not going to spend life with them as they have their own freedom to marry, love or live with any person at any point of time.So till it bothers my life or others life i think i dont have problem.As far as i know love never bothers anyones life.
