Interracial Dating


As children grow older and become teenagers, the idea of dating becomes an issue for the parents, family members and teens alike. In recent years interracial dating has become more and more prevalent in our society. As some of our communities continue to become more diverse, many teens and young adults are beginning to date individuals from other races and cultures. In the past, interracial dating was looked down upon and many people were hesitant to date anyone who was not the same color as them. Family and friends tend to influence the decisions of people and who they choose to develop a relationship with. Today, interracial dating seems to have become more acceptable and many young people are willing to entertain the idea of dating someone outside of their race. Please respond to the following:

  10. i i think that people should date any person they wanna date so that means that if they're different colors or races then it doesn't matter. it especially doesn't matter what other people think because they aren't the person dating the other person.

  11. I think interracial dating is ohkay. If you love someone and you feel right with that person it shouldn't matter how they look on the outside. It matters about how they treat you. If you feel that that's the person for you then go for it. Don't worry about what nobody else think because it's not their life it's yours , so I think that people should follow their heart and their first instint ! ( maybe not for me tho !)

  19. I think interracial dating is great because it gives people the chance to experience different things and cultures.I think love has no color nor does liking someone. So love who you wnt to although sumtimes it is still looked down upon but it can be love. And for me well i wouldn't care....

  20. i think interracial dating is ok ... cause first i really dont care cuz im 2 young to date any way so y should i be hyped about this topic...well it gives people a chance to interact with other people and to get to know about there culture and wats different about wat they do than what we do. So people can love who they want to and when they want to. you cant stop no one from lovin any one for its the true heart that counts

  22. UMmm..interatial dating is ared nothin is wrong wit havin an oreo child..chocolate nd white..hey i encourage it bcuz it gives you a feel of other cultures plus your child going to be pretty with long hair if its half indian or chinese...or something

  23. i think that interracial dating is good because if you truly love a person from a different race you should have the right to date that person if you want to.if not, it wouldnt be fair to people from different races to loves each other.people shouldnt keep diffrent races from loving or caring about each other.also dating people from different races allows you to know about what it is like in their country and what language they speak.this will allow interracial couples to communicate with each other better.

  24. @ Tionna, some of your comments are offensive to other people. Calling someone an Oreo may hurt that person's feelings. Also, what do you mean when you say that an interracial child will be "pretty" and does "long hair" automatically make someone pretty?
