For those who wouldn't, of course...
Options presented below. Choose more than one option if it applies.
Personally this wouldn't apply to me as I wouldn't restrict myself to one 'race', as I find the idea of 'race' less and less important or real. It's relative as well.
My wife is of a different race, so it's not that I wouldn't be with someone of a different race, but there are certain races I have found myself not attracted to. Just physically. And certain cultures composed of mostly one race that I don't care for, either.
I've dated people of different races. I generally keep my reasons for dating or not dating somebody specific to the individual.
I did notice that in one case (and one case only), I ran into the "disapproval of friends of family" issue in terms of cultural/racial differences, but not on the part of my family, on the part of his. Again, though, this was specific to the individuals at hand, and not something I'd ascribe to an entire given culture or race.
I kind of look at it this way. How would I feel if someone rejected a child of mine just because of their race or some superficial notion? Now to take it to another level. For those who believe all people are God's children if you won't date a person from another race due to some superficial reason what are you saying to God? His child isn't good enough for you?
No one person is a representative of a whole race.. I say date and marry anyone who you find happiness with. Well except a Red Sox fan..

Hey we Red Red sox fans are the best kinda people to date loyal, passionate everything you need in a relationship
i dont and probably will not marry outisde my race.dated a white guy once his parents tuned out to be racist so i dont bother anymore. i thin alot of white men are obessed with weight and do not really date black woman anyway
no asian people here and i dont find them attractive. culturak diff also means religious differences with causes more issues. a lot of interacial marriages have a higher divorce rate, so it doesnt work out in the end for evrybody. i think you will find most people only date within their race but wont admit it
I'm not sure as to who I'll eventually marry (still undecided), probably going to be Indian becoz she'll cook for me, feed me a pack of grapes and give me massages when I come home
