i know this sounds out there, but do you think some people do it for the attention? i mean if either is a knockout that is the explanation but what about all the attention hounds i know?
There's no telling what people's motives are. Myself, it doesn't matter, I just happen to be with someone I care about and treat him as such. After all, we (he and I) are the ones that are in each other's space 24/7 or way more than some random people on the streets...
I dont think so. I have been in plenty of interracial relationships and the people i keep around me arent stuck in the 19th century. Also the question is kind of messed up because it asked if you get more stares so the options should be yes or no. Same would be a no answer if you think about it. In any event, the country has come a long way and where i live and interracial couple isnt a big deal.
So you play the "evaluating game" also? You'd get along great with Pikantari and her boyfriend.
I mind my own business. I really don't care to check out other couples. I'm not interested in who looks hotter or what the trends are because it makes no difference to how I pick my boyfriends.
As an Asian woman who has always dated white guys, we basically get no stares from others since our interracial combination is so common. Shrug.
And my boyfriends don't look to see if other guys are checking us out. If I thought for an instant that I was some sort of trophy for him, I would drop him in a flash. Also, none of my boyfriends have ever dated any Asian women before me. I make sure that they don't have a thing for Asian women, because if they did, I would be totally grossed out and refuse to go out with them. I want my men to love me first for my personality and brains, not because of my slanted eyes. Aside from my exterior looks, there is nothing inside of me that is very Chinese. I'm a 100% American and consider women equal to men. So they better not expect any submissive traditional Asian attitudes from me.
you are contradicting yourself. You say you are totally grossed out and refuse to date men if you find out they have a thing for asians girls, yet you state you always date white guys...

From my experience, people stare at me anyways so when they've stared in the past at me & my non-black (usually) partner, I could care less. Hope this helped.
I agree. Here in LA, you almost see as many interracial couples as non-interracial couples.
A sampling of some of my close friends:
Russian female with Black male - Married
Persian male with Asian female - Married
White male with Black female - Married
Asian Male with Hispanic female - engaged
White female with Persian male - Married
White female with Hispanic/Middleastern male - Married
Jewish male with hispanic female - Married
Its very very very common here in Southern California. No one notices, no one cares about it. Its just people who found love with each other and are happy.
I know interracial dating is VERY common in the major cities..
What I'm trying to say is a BLACK MEN holding hand with a HOT BLONDE will definatlky get more stares when they are at the cinema then lets say a white couple...
I see inerracial couples everyday....just like you, but that just proves my point..they stand out more and people will stare at them..thats why ur noticing them every day!
Interracial couples are hardly a new thing...W H Y would anyone stare?????
MIA..
why? thats what I'm asking...
yes its common, yet it happens everywhere..no there's nothign wrong with it..BUT WHY DO PEOPLE HAPPEN TO STARE MORE at an interracial couple than a monoracial couple??
We are a white male/ black female couple. White men and black women generally smile. White women and black men show surprise first, and then disdain.
Some of this may be curiosity...it's hard to say.
Do you get alot of hate from black men??
Its funny how black men dont like white men to date black women, but they seem to have an fetish for blondes? They will go so far to even date a FAT white woman lol
