Some women only go out within their own race and some will only go out anyone but their own.

What have been your experiences?

What do you classify as "interracial"?

Besides blacks, mostly everyone else on the planet can check "white" on U.S. government forms.

I usually date interracially. I have dated my own race before, but nothing long term or serious.

Yes, I have dated outside my race multiple times. If I like a guy, I like him regardless of his skin color. The guy I'm talking to now classifies himself as white, even though he's not (he's of Pakistani descent), but he grew up in a very white upperclass area and seems to be surrounded by mostly white people (and a few Asians), so considers himself white. Another guy I dated was of Bangladeshi descent, but grew up in London and only dates white girls. Most of this guy's friends are white, so he's very much a part of white Western culture, much to the chagrin of his parents. Oh well. I don't think any of it really matters.

I wish people would be more race-blind. It seems women who date IR have to make a 'thing' of it. Why not just not even care about race? Genitalia look pretty much the same between races (I know what you're gonna say next, please, refrain! ).

Personally I don't find men of other races attractive at all, so I stick with my own kind where that's concerned. To me white men are the only attractive men there are.

I feel color should not matter. If the person has a great personality and treats you as you like to be treated, what does color matter..............We are all of one race.....the human race...... thats what matters........If you closed your eyes and spoke to a person without knowing their color and it was a good experience ,would their color matter........thats what you need to ask yourself.........I am white my husband italian......

I've been attracted to women of all races. I'm 'Asian' btw, and it's not an issue unless the other party makes it an issue. I know sometimes it's hard to avoid but I try to just see the person, not just a member of a race.

If I don't look in the mirror I sometimes feel sort of 'raceless' anyway. It's not a big part of my identity, so I hate to be reminded. Not that I'm ashamed, I prefer if it wasn't even an issue.
