I could see it being difficult at times, but have no problem with it, now. I used to, but not any more. Not really sure why. I think it was the community I grew up in. We weren't allowed to play with the black kids up the street. It took a long time to outgrow that mentality.
BTW, Moses had an Ethiopian wife, right?
I'm still hoping you'll date your wife again.

Only by the different races coming together can this man-made divide be overcome.
One of the MANY reasons I support interracial marriage.
I actually get that a lot. This day and age PC is waaay to pervasive into our society. People like to jump the gun and declare someone is racist with out having all the facts. When I say I don't date outside of my race its not because I’m a racist or that I think their impureness will rub off on me
It's based 100% off of "I'm not attracted to them." They make great friends, but it ends there.
It wouldn’t sit well with me if one of my children dated outside of their race because I don’t understand it. It’s like if your child came home holding the hand of a horribly obese person. They may have a heart of gold and be a great person, but you’re not going to jump up and down congratulating them on the great find. You also wouldn’t stand in their way of dating who they want.

Darth and KJR... how are you with your wives families?
It's funny because my girl admits that she wishes that her brother would be with an Asian girl and not a white girl. I ask if he probably says the same about her but she says no... cultural thing where the women are supposed to be more involved with the man's family/friends/etc, but the men are supposed to stay with their own families. So it matters more who the son is with than the daughter. Kind of strange considering that I would expect most families to be more protective and critical of who the daughter is with...
My wife's parent came over from Vietnam on "the boat" (literally) in 1977, they never really had a problem with my ethnicity. They didn't really know anything about my career choice as a golf professional. They had never heard of such nonsence, they have gotten past that. They know I'm a pretty good husband.

I find most ethnic people, be they white or "minorities" tend to be more racist than mixed mutt "white folks". As long as her family is cool about it I wouldn't worry about it unless your girls are weird about it.

Don't hold your breath... I feel like I've been released from prison!
If none of this had ever happened, I don't think I would have ever been the one to break up my family. But what's done is done and I am MUCH better off.

I have dated black women ONLY for the past 13yrs. now, I am white. To me, its a lifestyle difference, and I find that black women are physically and mentally more attractive, than plain ole vanila!!

My husband is Cuban, but you can' t tell him or any member of his family that I married outside of my race. Cubans consider themselves white. They will not allow themselves to be put in the "Latino" catagory. They have Spanish ancestors and therefore should be considered Europian.

I would say our only problem is the cultural differences. It really only became a problem after my son was born, and I know you won't have to be worrying about that.
They have different ideas about how children should be raised.
On a side note, when a child is "mixed race," which box do you check when they get to school?

Oh now, Have you seen MiaHeat in one of his sports jersey's? That will make you want some man meat.

Ooops I guess that would be a different thread, same s-e-x-, mixed race.

Anyway it seems lke most of our friends are interracial relationships. If you want to call it that. In fact they are asian/white. I don't even notice it. At my wifes work I think we are the minority being a white/white couple. Come to think of it, most of my daughters friends are asain.

I've dated most and I'm sure if I wasn't in a relationship when I moved to California I would have dated asian too. I love dating peeps from other cultures. You can ask them all the politically incorrect questions that you almost couldn't otherwise.
My step-son's woman is Chinese/Japanese. He went out to learn a traditional dance of her's so he could surprise her at a party. Made her things in her language. These are things he wouldn't have learned within his own circle.
Oh, and interracial couples make the BEST looking babies... hands down... for real.

HEHE I mark all that apply. My oldest son is tri racial. both my daughters are bi-racial (differant races) my youngest is asian only so we only check one for him
My husband and I are both white, but realize that our son and daughters in law could be just about any race.

Crimzy lets just say whatever floats your boat should be fine with you. Heck my wifes side lest see here I have a BIL his wife is Fillapino and one of her kids is from her first marriage to an African American. Then one of my other BIL's he is married to a Southern Belle with no kids. The last one is Divorced and he had a son with his Latino Wife.
My own Stepson is Biracial and yet I love him more than life itself. People are so hung up on Race yet if we oppose the current holder of the Oval Office or speak out we are the Racists.
