Color of Love: Celebs in Interracial Relationships

It's sad that in 2008, we still feel the need to point out and comment on who people love and commit to. How is this any of our business?? Let's find something else to do shall we?

Well Niyama..I guess something is wrong with my hunky (afro-american) handsome, husband of twelve years who loves my chocolate colored self..Gee whiz, let me count my blessings to be so fortunate, as a pretty attractive sister that I snagged this here righteous brother..LOL, Get over yourself..Its a damn shame when you have to name all your European ancestry to be deemed attractive..We are not blind, there are attractive women in all races, and to say anything else would be foolish.

I believe "you" should be with whomever provides the happiness we all deserve in a relationship. Whether that person is black, white, brown, or purple. I say more power to black women who didn't seek out dating/marrying outside their race but embraced loving someone who didn't look like them. I did and loving every minute of it. LOL LOL

People, what is the problem here, we don't judge people on the color of their skin, we judge on how we get along with each other, it is not a black or white thing, if you are get a white persons attention then so be it, if you get a black persons attention then so be it. I myself am a dark chocolate woman who have had relationships with black men and white men, in my case, I get peoples attention when I walk into a room , I am talking about black men and white men, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. last but not least regardless of what race or color a man is still a man. Love is not a color.

Look, Njiama you say that most men choose everything other than black women because black women are not naturally beautiful. Well guess what? Barack Obama who is about (hopefully) to be the most powerful man in the world CHOSE a black woman. I have heard a lot of white male commentators say that she is attractive. She is a100 percent black woman from the hood. Denzel Washington did the same. So did Ben Carson who is one of the top Neurosurgeons in the world.

Jay, BLACK LOVE should excite you. You are a male( guessing from your name) so there are more than enough upstanding AA women for you to chose from. But as for us women, what are we supposed to do? Please tell me? 70% of AA women are single. And there are not enough upstanding single AA men for us. That is why we are "running" as you say to other races. Not because of self-hate. But because we are NO LONGER will to sit around ALONE and wait for a good AA man because sadly this is something that may or may not come to pass and most of us do not want continue to be part of the 70% statistic. If you find love, not matter what the color of that person, Go for it!!

Inter-racial dating is so BORING! What excites me is BLACK LOVE. There are too many black people with self-hating issues, running to other races in an attempt to hide it. Those in inter-racial relationships are more likely to divorce. Fact!
