Maybe interracial dating issues vary depending on the country or the parent's cultural background. I'm unsure. Being that as it may, what are the problems with interracial dating? Why shouldn't a white girl date and/or marry a black or indian (or whatever different race) guy? Why shouldn't a black girl date and/or marry a Japanese or Chinese (or whatever different race) girl? Why do so many people have trouble with it? Is it cultural? Is it personal? Any comments or insights on the topic are much appreciated.

I think it has a lot to do with how they were raised. Personally I feel that everyone should do what makes them happy and why should I have anything to say about that? Personally I feel that is their business who they date or marry and it does not bother me at all.

Thats a good reason why it occurs. I've noticed that on occasion myself. I quite agree that it is a personal matter. Thanx for the comment

It's all those numerous undocumented laws and rules that humankind live by. Babies and toddlers play together unbothered by the differences, we teach them. We parents
lay those seeds of hate in our children. If we could break
free from those decades of color bias, which I realize is never gonna happen, goodness what a brighter and more awesome
life we all could lead. But it just ain't gonna happen...SS

I'm not sure why black men have such an issue with black women dating white men. I used to care but I got over it. I still hear the argument that black women are difficult to deal with, and that they're not right, and this and that but honestly I don't think they want to take the time out to deal with black women, they want something easy they won't have a lot of trouble with, and other women seem to put up with it, for whatever reason. Whatever works for you I guess ...
