"Interracial Relationships"

I'm getting a bit bored of all the religion topics popping up here lately, so let's try something a little different.

Interracial Relationships

What's your opinion on this topic?

-Is there still a stigma attached to them?
-Why are IR's still quite uncommon?
-Why were they seen as being "wrong" in the past?

Just a couple of suggestions there to get you talking.

I thought of this topic after reading an article today about a woman who gave her daughter up for adoption because her family wouldn't accept the child because she was mixed race.

She is now trying to find her daughter 40 years later, but so far has had no luck tracing her. I thought this story was quite sad, but then I started thinking is this still happening in some families today, or have times really changed?

Discuss.

Hmm. In Thailand, there were no very attractive Asian girls. I have seen many in the UK.

Hey, you try waking up with a hang over in a bed with a cow and used condoms on the floor.

Even after the divorce I still felt... dirty.

Have you still not got over that terrible ordeal?

I have a bit of a thing for Indian/Pakistani girls, I just find them really attractive.

While in Thailand I only saw a few girls who turned my head, whereas around here I see, what I consider to be, stunners every single day on the way to college or on a night out. Depends on your preferences, I guess.

And, no, I don't think interracial relationships are wrong. Why would they be? Everybody's human, after all. It's the man/cow marriages you have to worry about...

Personally, I don't find black or asian girls as attractive as caucasian girls. I've nothing against any race or creed or colour, just I simply find white girls more attractive. I have grown up in a community with very few ethnic minority members and I imagine this has something do with it. Tis odd.

It's when you listen them that they become a nightmare.

They are?

Heh, because a good looking oriental girl is a marvelous sight to behold.

Nothing wrong with it in my eyes. Historically, it has been thought of as wrong due to racial hatred between different people. Leading to both social and economic divides, making "lesser races" especially blacks "unworthy".

Thankfully, society is, for the most part, over such fatuous nonsense.

I can't say that I never would have had a relationship with a black girl anyway, as I don't find them especially attractive, but that's noit always the deciding factor in some relationships anyway.

As a teen, I was mightily attracted to Chinese/Japanese girls, and had I ever got the chance would certainly have tried for a relationship with one, and wouldn't have expected anyone to see anything wrong with it.
