I bet Texas probably has a lot of White and Mexican mixing especially the towns closer to the Mexican border.
I live in NE Texas and maybe it just doesn't register, I don't know. I see some Hispanic/non Hispanic pairings though. I am very used to living in a multicultural environment, between living in Texas and having a military family background. The races all seem to get along fine here. No race drama. Which is interesting to me considering how diverse the state is.

White people in other parts of the country are Anglo or just "American" and while the hostility is still there, it isn't as big of a deal if the guy is likable enough. As far as I have noticed, the Anglo Saxons, Germanics, and Scandinavian Americans are more lenient on white women going interracial. Eastern Europeans are hostile against it and Italian Americans will absolutely resort to violence if they see white women mixing it up interracially.
Chicago. midwestern cities except for say Minneapolis are not areas where you will see a lot of interracial couples. I can say the same in Atlanta where I lived for several years.

I am part of an interracial group on FB and a guy from NYC just last month lamented that dating white women in that city was not very noticeable.

What's the point of this thread? Nobody cares about interracial marriages. This isn't the middle east. We're America and even in our most conservative parts, we're completely cool with mixed race people.

Really, in our most conservative areas? That's not even true! A mixed couple was just attacked at a bar in Florida last week! Last year in Olympia, WA, a mixed couple was attacked.

I mean without proper context, how am I supposed to know what the motive is there? Non-mixed race couples get attacked too. And who attacked those couples?

I agree with this. Mixed marriages and relationships are generally a non-issue anywhere in America today, even in the "most Conservative areas", lol. Pointing to the exception and not the rule as proof that we still have a "problem" doesn't make the point valid. It's very true that the context of the attack has to be known and not have the default reason be that it was automatically because they were a mixed couple. All kinds of people in all combinations are attacked everyday. It's irresponsible to take a particular combination of people, see if that combination fits into a preconceived narrative, then come to an unsubstantiated conclusion. That kind of thinking and emotional response is very damaging to society.
