I just thought I would ask. It seems some people here are not comfortable with interracial couples, and I was curious how common the attitude is..
By the way, I raised two of my own children and two step children, you are wrong on many levels.
There are many topics being discussed on this board and I don't participate in the majority of those topics because I can't speak intelligently on the subject matter. When I do participate and when I do make statements, I do so because I know what I'm talking about:
This most severe category of child maltreatment exhibits Cinderella effects of the greatest magnitude: in several countries, stepparents beat very young children to death at per capita rates that are more than 100 times higher than the corresponding rates for genetic parents.
I am so impressed. You are trying to use step children statistics when trying to tell me about mixed race children.
Do you think that race is disconnected from the concepts of genetics and families? A race is really an extension of an extended family that has inbred over time. This means that the kinship you feel to your child is diluted as we move away from the family, step by step. Most people feel some greater level of kinship to their cousin than to a total stranger. And so on. Do I need to repeat what I've already written?
Please dont. At one point we were all of one family, oh wait, we still are.
The mix isn't stable. Genes will express. Secondly, the rate of interracial marriage is nowhere close to being strong enough to override what's going on with in-group matings. Then there are the 2nd and downstream generation effects which we see taking place in Brazil. The children of mixed race couples, and their children, don't stay isolated in a mix-race category, they migrate outwards and join different communities. Their uniqueness is diluted in the following generation. I highly doubt that those two girls, when they are adults, are going to follow the same mating patterns and that they're going to find guys who are also mixed race.
Why do you hate diversity so much that you want to erase it from the world?
And we can all join hands and sing kumbaya. So in addition to wiping out genetic diversity you also favor wiping out cultural diversity. We have many people alive today who are committed to helping to keep diverse peoples and cultures alive and you're setting yourself up as their enemy, you want to destroy what they fight to keep alive. Same too with linguists who are trying to keep regional dialects alive. They're trying to protect diversity and your dream is to destroy all the diversity that exists in the world. Can't you see how people who value diversity are going to fight you as you seek to destroy what they value so highly?

And yet here you are, on a computer using a paid internet connection to discuss issues with me while your sons and daughters in Africa are being starved to death. Why don't you sell your house and car and save those children?
If my daughters were starving, I'd sell every damn possession I own to put food in their bellies. My every waking moment would be filled with torment as I saw their suffering.
Why aren't you helping your family?
I'm open. I've never dated a black woman, but I've been with Asian and Latina women. If a woman has what I want, skin color doesn't blip on my radar.
I am not seeking to destroy anything at all. It's the direction that we will move toward by nature. People are attracted by differences, not sameness, which is one of the reasons we see an increase in interracial mixes nowadays.
ROFL...yeah, it's just whites. That must get a good laugh at the Panther rally.
Blacks, Asians, Latinos...they're not at all like that. It's whites. Good one, "G".
If any American politician won 80% of the vote, it would be considered a landslide, the second coming, a mandate.
20% doesn't qualify as "lots" in my book.
Stating things which are not true, doesn't make them true. This sure doesn't look like people are naturally inclined to favor differences:

Lots of fundamentalist Christians still think this way, even though most of them know better than to open their mouths on it.
Therefore what your statistics seem to indicate, if they are accurate, is that 33.8 percent of white women prefer whites only.
Thing is that people who don't know a damn thing about statistics start throwing up numbers. Then you start to ask them serious questions about what they have put forward and they can't answer. Then they want you to believe it without question. It's just as bad as talking to a religious fanatic.
