I don't know if you're concern trolling or if you're simply obtuse. But for such an ardent realist, you do not seem to have a grasp on the fact that statistics are based on variables, making "X% of IR marriages fail therefore any given IR marriage has X% chance of failing" an incorrect statement, to put it politely.

Miscegenation destroys all races.


Anti-miscegenation laws existed in the USA until the Supreme Court ruled against them in 1967.

If they're just jumping into marriage then no it ain't gonna work. I'm black, and my current girlfriend is korean. We've been somewhat on and off for a few years, but we've met each others' families, I know about her traditions, and vice versa. If we did make that jump, we have enough info regarding each other for it to hopefully not be a **** up.

Why do people oppose race mixing?
what an ignorant and completely false post! where did you get this information? you really should not ASSume things like that because it makes you look like an ASSumer. good job

BTW, I was born in the US, am white, and have been married to a black woman (also born in the US) for over 22 years, so yeah, I can call your post ignorant and foolish. I absolutely cannot stand people who spew off garbage without anything to back it up. People like that should just sit in the corner and shut up. They look like (and are) complete fools.

Yep. We still got a LOOOOOONNNNNNGGGG way to go on race relations, I'm sorry to say. Not even close to being a "color-blind" society, don't fool yourself...

yeah, good thing that aren't any black racists. I sure as hell have never heard a black person make a disparaging remark about myself, my wife, or both of us when we're together..

racism exists everywhere, but so do stupid people that make uninformed and ignorant statements and accusations. Unfortunately we can't (legally) do anything about them.

Where did that come from? No one said anything of the sort. It always comes back around to us darkies apparently. You married a black chick supposedly but you seem to be awfully vitriolic towards her race.

Clean black guy with a white woman who actually care and love each other, and not just together for status quo, I have no issue with. The white gal with ghetto, trashy lookin black guys, well, I don't agree with it. Seems like white women are out to prove something and black guys are doing it to get back at the white man, but it is what it is. Also seems like a ton of black guys just talk too dirty and disrespectful right off the bat, I just find that in poor taste, looking for a piece of ass and thats it.

Asian/White couples don't bother me in the least.

what do you mean where am I coming from? I was responding to a lot of the people in this thread/board/country that think racism can only be white on every other race. It's idiotic, but rampant. My point is that there is indeed racism everywhere, but it comes from all directions. If you are the self described (insert word you used here) you claim to be, you should have no problem agreeing with that.
BTW, that is an extremely ignorant term to use and not a term I would ever use. I actually think that would qualify as an offensive post, but then again so do all of the posts from people with michael moore disease (white hating whites).

and there is no supposedly about it. I know who I am married to!

like many ambitious posts --this thread has the ambition to change public thought. but sometimes the public thought is correct. the herd is not always in error.
women do need to look to their own interests. just bek someone is of another race does not mean they are prince charming and all his friends are from harvard.
on the other hand i have seen som WM BF couples that were pretty happy low divorce rate and both had education and class.
