protip, dont mix breeds.

When people ask where you are from, what will you say? Im 1/12 Irish 2/19 asian, 3/1 nigerian, 1/23th ape, 1/2 lion?

Dont be 1 of those people or your kids are going to automatically be put to the side when they breed as no one really likes mixes, unless they are from similar cultures or religions.

Women in high COL areas should not expect to be paid for it's 2019 and Women are strong and independent. They can pay their own bills. That being said, being from a Caribbean background myself (generations ago) I do know we are not of the habit of showering Women with gifts, again due to cultural nuances and history. In general in Caribbean culture the Woman works just as hard as the Man albeit in a different capacity, unless the pursuer is rich. <<<<<<< DUDE ... U CHEAP

African-American usually refers to American black people descended from slavery, it is a specific ethnic group.

Do more research before calling others "dummies"

It depends on whether the mix is a historical "thing" or not. My friend had an identity crisis about being half Jewish and white in the 1950s and people who are Black and Hispanic often got trolled in the '60s and '70s. But now these mixes get way less static because there's more of them.

I've heard more about people who got weird stuff for being a "weird mix" than for just being mixed. West Indian mixed with Chinese or Indian is also common.

How is it not less accepted if it's less common? Underrepresentation is often an indicator of discrimination. I saw earlier in this thread that a black guy living in Rego Park had trouble dating interracially.

I agree that nobody likes mixes to some extent in dating, my friend struggled with being half Jewish in the 50s. It really is best to stay in your lane unless you know wtf you're doing, though I'm trying to err on the side of knowing what I'm doing in case the interracial thing happen.

What should I watch for a Chinese guy from a religiously mixed family who is interested in all races? Even intraracial dating, like Black and Jamaican, can be fraught.

Well I feel interracial is also quite common amongst the average people but there is some sort of repression in the Queens area that prevents it from happening.

It's also kind of true in the Bronx, I am afraid my kid would get static if I swirl, Asian/Black or Asian/White kids get the weird mix stigma but my nuclear family is not Muslim so it may be less of an issue. My friend is half white and Hispanic and her ex husband is black and she is a native of the Brownsville neighborhood.

Moreover, there is some intermarriage in large firms like GS and they live with their parents in Coney Island. The main nationalities in these firms are Indian, Chinese and Russian as well as the usual suspects (White, Puerto Rican and Black) and you do see some intermarriage.

Queens doesn't have as many trendy neighborhoods where different races of American born people live together as Brooklyn, that doesn't mean interracial dating is less acceptable socially.

That probably explains why the most common interracial relationship is BMWF in affordable areas.
