I wouldn't give a rats ass if I was you. I am a white guy that likes indian women. People will always be judgmental. As long as YOU are happy.

Anywhere in the city. You'll get some stares but nothing intimidating. I can't believe people are still hung up over interracial couples in this giant metropolis. It's 20-friggin-14.

As if you (generally speaking) haven't see a interracial couple before in your lifetime.

Eh, it really depends. For some reason people do not act odd if they see a white guy with an asian woman or even a black guy with a white woman but indian or middle eastern guy with a white woman does turn heads. At least here in Central Pennsylvania.

y'all actually waste your time with a face-rating site? I thought people over 25 outgrew "hot or not".

no one will give you a second stare in new York. I'm probably the same complexion as you and have dated guys of many ethnicities/races .. didn't really get much flak. the only thing I had to deal with were overly aggressive guys here and there who didn't understand the words "no thanks" but that's about it.

it doesn't apply for women really

I notice that when white men and women of minority groups date, there is no racism.

Move to Queens...you'll fit right in.

What does being "in shape" have to do with finding someplace to live. Are you looking to avoid the fat part of NY?

Or are you vain and want to be the most beautiful around a bunch of uglies.

I think you're worried you won't attract as much attention as you did in Central PA.
