Honestly I didn't like that...

And soon you got over it right? Hopefully you did...just because you're
attracted to RUSSIAN women doesn't mean they're obligated to
be attracted to you. You might just be UNATTRACTIVE.


Anyway, I don't see the problem with interracial couples I have only dated Black women but if I found an Asian or Latina that I was attracted too, I wouldn't see a problem with it.

I think we have a "special room" for people like you



And obviously, I am not talking about actually retarded people as they are often rather color blind. I am talking about seemingly normal people who are actually quite stunted and pose a threat to society because they are not only stupid but also convinced they are right. Bad, bad mix. This kind of mindset is also bad for breeding. Stupidity breeds stupidity. And we don't need anymore of that.

But yes, Singapore does pretty well on this Earth, if that's the country you were referring to. List of countries by GDP (PPP) per capita - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia As for the interracial marriage thing, if those divorce rates are lower, then great. If higher, then, not so great.
I'm talking about Toronto, Canada, where I've grown up all my life .
It's said to be one of the most diverse cities in the world.

What would "extremely Asian" entail? Singapore has one dominant ethnicity (Chinese), with two major minorities (Malay and Indian). It has even got four official languages (Mandarin, English, Malay and Tamil).

Honestly the USA is the most diverse country on Earth, the country can be proud of this..Ok some problems occur, but you can fix them.
Depends on how one would define diversity. India is an extremely diverse country.

I know so many mixed couples it is almost strange to see a non-mixed couple.

It doesn't bother me a bit, but I am the product of an interracial/ethnic (White/Hispanic) marriage that occurred in the 60's in California. My parents have always gotten along (40+ yrs), now the white and Hispanic in-laws...are another story completely.

I think it's a good think, don't you ?
I'm proud to be part of the statistic. I love my white boys!

It shouldn't bother you unless you're the jealous type.

I thought he was too at first since he's an uber-lib and they are "supposed" to be tolerant and all that. However, he hasn't been back to comment.
