It is so tempting to sit here and argue with you. But I'm going to go hug the hell out of my mixed race daughter; it sickens me that there are people who would look at her and judge her as you do. I'll pray for you.
Yes you are. And yes...anyone else that can't get past a person's skin color or religion is as well. It's not 'old school' it's being racist. The is nothing 'pc' about calling you what you proudly say ypu are.
Go back to watching The Vikings and saying how handsome Germans are. (Very telling comments.)
How odd that you are disappointed thst your daughter seems more willing to look at a person's charecter and not just how much melain one has or doesn't have.
So saying people of Germanic descent are attractive and watching "Vikings" is now racist? Dear God.

Okay - can I ask a genuine question? Did you and your partner face cultural and social issues because of your relationship?
You don't see anything racist about not liking a person just because of their skin color? Hate to break it to you ..but that is racism.
The OP never said he didn't like the Boy. He said he did not approve of him dating his Daughter. Read that again. HIS DAUGHTER, not yours or anyone else's. And if the Truth was known 99% of the ones yelling "Racist" are glad its not their Daughter.
Really? These days I'd be much more worried about my children dating bullies, criminals, abusive people, etc. who come in all colors, cultures, and sizes. Who cares if he's purple if he's a good person who treats her right?
I didn't say you specifically. And just because you're okay with your daughter being with a black man doesn't mean everyone else should share your opinion.
You have not stated any negative about this young man besides his skin color. have you even met him?
You defined me as a racist because I don't want my daughter dating a black guy. 9/10 Arab parents would agree with me - most likely not just with blacks, but whites, Asians, Hispanics; any man or woman who wasn't an Arab Muslim. So I ask again . . . do you think Arab Muslims are racist?
If that was their stance...maybe racist but I suspect it has more to do with religious prejudice. So unless you are against him because of your religious beliefs I don't see this as comparable. How about we just go with you are bigoted? Does that make you feel better?

No, I haven't. Admittedly I don't know much about him. My daughter lives with her mother. We're divorced. However it's no secret that African-Americans commit a disproportionate amount of crime. Is it unreasonable for me to be concerned when I contemplate it from that aspect? This is my child we're talking about. Even if I'm being over-protective, I'd rather be that than sorry.
