started dating someone of another race?

<-- i don't know, probably say dubya tee eff?

10/29/2005 2:12:28 AM

they'd be really surprised, but they wouldn't care at all.

10/29/2005 2:18:49 AM

My parents would just be surprised that I'm dating.

10/29/2005 2:20:29 AM

Ping!!!

10/29/2005 2:28:59 AM

depends on the race

My mother would probably not say anything if I started dating a girl of a different race, but I know it would kind of bother her.

Now if it was a hispanic or an asian I don't think it would bother her in the least, but a black, indian, arab or jew, my mom wouldn't really like it as well as a white girl.

back me up no matter what

10/29/2005 3:12:16 AM

they would probably ask when we planned on making some babies for them to dote over

10/29/2005 5:56:36 AM

not give a shit

10/29/2005 9:08:50 AM

Put a curse on me and then bake me a pie full of turds.

10/29/2005 9:52:26 AM

Pretend it's okay but would really be pissed.

10/29/2005 10:12:57 AM

dad wouldnt like it much, probably depends on the shade/mixed/hispanic...profit

10/29/2005 10:14:20 AM

i hooked up with a half black chick one time........does that count?

10/29/2005 11:42:22 AM

If she was hot.

Not a god damn fucking thing.

I'd see to that.

10/29/2005 12:01:05 PM

probably not care.

10/29/2005 12:26:03 PM

parents wouldn't care at all, i've dated girls of a number of different races

10/29/2005 1:14:35 PM

My parents would be happy that I found a girl I like and vice versa

10/29/2005 1:16:13 PM

my parents would say "hi, it's nice to meet you."

10/29/2005 1:33:35 PM

Unless she behaved like lil' sis, my parents would care a bit

10/29/2005 1:50:46 PM

Given the fact I already have a wife and a kid, they'd dissaprove.

10/29/2005 1:53:05 PM

It wouldn't matter to my mom.

My dad would hate it because he's a racist bastard.

10/29/2005 1:59:26 PM

*wouldn't

MathFreak just made me laugh.

parents wouldn't care. they would show an interest and probably accidently say racist things in an atempt to make simple conversation.

my grandparents on the other hand... racist.

10/29/2005 4:53:49 PM

I really don't think they'd care one bit.

10/29/2005 6:38:42 PM

They wouldn't care. They'd be amazed I'm dating.

lols

My dad wouldn't give a shit at all. It would bug my mom, but she'd get over it and keep it to herself besides. The most likely problem would be my mom being awkward as fuck whenever the girl was around.

10/29/2005 8:35:02 PM

My mom is apathetic to a lot of the stuff that I do.

10/29/2005 9:12:07 PM

nothing

my brother is married to a russian

i am engaged to a brit

10/29/2005 9:17:20 PM

didn't seem to have a problem when i dated a Chinese girl for 2.5 years...

my mom would kinda stutter for a second if i brought home a black girl, but she'd get over it, my dad wouldn't even notice she was black

10/30/2005 5:41:09 PM

the first "date" I ever went on was with a black chick

my parents would be happy for me

10/30/2005 6:39:40 PM

My sister dated a Colombian for a couple of years and it was several months before the notion of it being an "interracial relationship" came across our minds. Of course he was a big shot at GE and not some Gringo working landscape but it definitely was not an issue in my family. My mom's extended family is all real southern and if I had ever dated a black girl I know there would have been some mutterings. My parents are cool with whatever though.

10/30/2005 7:36:27 PM

how much of racism is really classism?

what you described sounds like an economic concern

10/30/2005 7:56:58 PM

I thought a gringo was a white person?

Anyway, my mother does not approve of my white girlfriend (I'm Chinese), and my dad's too clueless to have much of any opinion. *shrug*

Depends, 'cause my parents care about both religion and race.

For race, if I married a Chinese or Japanese person, they could put up with it. White would take some getting used to (but a cousin already broke that one, so it wouldn't be as big of a fight). Hispanic, African descent, South Asian, Southeast Asian, or a Middle Eastern variety would get them upset, but they'd learn to deal with it eventually.

Religion is more important. If I were to marry a non-Christian, they'd probably almost everything in their power to stop it. Agnostic would be bad, another religion entirely would be a total furor.

There are factors that could mitigate it like family background and education.

10/31/2005 5:04:51 PM

wouldn't care...i've dated two guys of another race

10/31/2005 7:28:14 PM

they just tell me to keep her away from my grandmother. I love her to death, but she is quite the bigot.

10/31/2005 7:47:48 PM

fucking racist people should be hooked by the genitalia and tied to the back of my car when i commute on 40 every day
and no, my parents wouldn't care if they were orange with purple spots, and no one else should either

11/1/2005 11:57:46 PM

my mom would care because if i ended up marrying out of my race and having children she would worry about the children being a mixed race

my dad would not care, but support my mom if they ganged up on me

i can see that being an ok fear given the fact that im from a small town

it is different for everyone whether it is good or bad

i personally dont care if others decide to do so because i am happy for them because they found someone
