You mean women in real life don't sleep with the pizza boy if they can't pay their bill?

Then we need to get back to discussing interracial marriage. That was the original purpose of me posting on this thread.

My point is this. People might approve of interracial marriage, and might act on it. However, some people will still judge based on stereotypes.

Ignorant people will always judge based upon stereotypes. Those who get out and explore the world and talk to people will judge based upon reality.

There are plenty of young black men like you (I know them!), so just keep doing what you're doing and ignore all the nonsense.

Hmmm...what if you can afford the bill and just think the pizza boy's hot?

Where I live, I almost do a double take when there is a non-interracial couple. Especially under 40.

There are some combos that are pretty rare though:
* South Asian with Anyone (I generally only see other South Asians together. The ones I knew that dated interracially in college all married someone of south asian descent)
* black women/asian men (except for Filipinos)
* latina woman/asian man (no comments about Filipinos, some Filipinos look Latino, so you can't really tell)

As for me - almost everybody I date is not Indian, I don't feel the need to get with an Indian, because I'm British. Most of the women I date are East Asian or Asian American...for some reason a lot of Black American women really like me...

A lot Asian-American women tell me that they find Asian men too conservative and/or too feminine.

Lots of Black Women date only black or ethnic men. You'd fit the bill.
I think South-Asia guys are hot.

What if the men are the same physically as white guys? In UK the Indian women are not into white guys on the whole - Indian guys there are as tall as white guys. I'm 5'10" & I'm the shortest guy in my family. My tallest brother is 6'3".

I try not to be judgmental when it comes to height. But I want a guy that is tall. I actually liked a short guy for a couple of years and he was white. But honestly its not just a physical thing but its confidence. White guys carry themselves with confidence.
