actually "don" you missed the entire point. but thats not surprising. so let me elaborate .,.,.. this is a non-issue. inter-racial dating dates back to biblical times! the black community is the lowest on the socio -economic scale, there are more new cases of aids in our community, the drop out rate is astonomical and teenage pregnancy is on the rise. not to mention our you men being sent to prison or killed on the streets daily. we are 13% of the population - if this continues and we continue to date outside our race we will indeed be extinct. so u see don, the fact that you date love marry a black woman is minute in the grand scheme of things.

I've just ened a relationship with a guy who happend to be white. It had it's ups and downs and unfortunately, ened on a sour note. But while we dated, of course people stared. I get the feeling it was because I was black and he was white which is still something that isn't as commonly seen in the interracial dating. ( being the women being black and the man being white.) Sadly, people still have their estrangements with this topics and hopefully will one day they come to just accept reality. Interracial dating is here and it's staying, no matter how much you dislike it. All I have to offer as a suggestion for those who have a problem with IR dating is not to date someone of another race. It's unconsitutional to decline a couple to get married based on race, religion, sexual preferrence and so on. Let people have a private life where you're not looking to control their every decision. This has nothing to do with other people beliefs and so on.
