Easily (parts of) Chicago. Just walk in Streeterville; interracial relationships seem to be more common than same race ones.

I have to say I've seen a lot of black female/white male and black female/Hispanic male couples in the LA area, at least in Pasadena and environs.

I'm a black female who was born and off & on raised in Seattle. From the time I was allowed to date it was only white guys and I never had any major problems there. Other parts of my life I spent in Houston (13 years) and dated white, hispanic, and asian guys with no problems there as well. I'm in Dallas now, haven't dated anyone here, but do see that BW/WM couples are quite popular as well as accepted here. I'm considering heading back west though, possibly Cali this time! Also, up in Seattle my black aunt has been married to her white husband for nearly 15 years now with no issues that I'm aware of! I think lots of folks feel that there are far more important issues in the world (especially nowadays) to be concerned with than skin color.

There have been so many threads on this particular issue that I'm starting to get the feeling that it's becoming a trend that people are encouraging.

The BM/BW combination is still a-okay, in case people were wondering.

I also second Minneapolis, particularly Northeast Minneapolis, just about everyone there is multiracial.

Really? Interfaith couples (Jewish-Catholic), maybe, but I thought Oprah was the only black person in Streeterville. And even she's left town.

Rogers Park is by far the most integrated part of Chicago, but even there you don't see as many interracial couples compared to other cities where I have been (Minneapolis, the Upstate New York cities, everywhere in California).

From my personal experience I would say the twin cities and to a lesser extent Chicago.

No, it's the media brainwashing people with this strong push for interracial dating. You see black women on TV downing the black men and saying black men ain't ****. You have all these Interracial dating people pushing their agenda. It's ridiculous. I have no issue with ID, but I do have a problem with the lack of support for black love. You never hear in the white community; them telling each other to dating outside of their race.


OK, rant over. Had to get that off my chest.
