First of all, I am not from bedstuy. (please read before you post)

Secondly, Jews are an ethic group (ethnoreligious), have you ever heard of Ashkenazic Jews or Sephardi Jews?

Trust me, I've dated enough New york Jewish men to know that many, if not most consider themselves to be an ethnicity separate from strictly Caucasian. Many Jewish men have different features that contrast from regular Anglo-Saxon white's. Such as longer noses, darker hair etc...

laugh my ass off...

Theres so much more to it then that. There are also big macho Latin and White guys too...has that ever occured to you? I appreciate your openness, but your post smacks of insecurity.

If a cute Latin or White Guy refused to talk to me because he thinks because Im also Black that Im only into big macho Black guys...I'd have to slap some sense into him. But then again its vice versa

I noticed that too. Just look at Adrien Brody's features. P.S. is there anything else about them that is longer?

To the OP...Of course there's still prejudice and always will be...may as well get used to the stares, the comments, all that...some folks are just anti mixed race relationships, just like whites still hate blacks, straights hate gays, and whatever else to this day...You have to build a strong backbone and decide that it's your life and you're free to share it with your choice of human being. There will always be someone against something you say or do...

Right on. My earlier point exactly.

Now as for Bensonhurst, in my experience many of the folks there stare at Black people as if we are from the Planet Zaytar or about to rob or mug them regardless of whether we are alone or with our s.o. of another racial or ethnic origin. Pay them no attention. It just feeds them. Focus on yourself and your love. Worked for me.

People don't understand mixed race relationships, nor do they like it.

My gf for instance hates it.

I've been with a black woman before and got nothing but harrassment from black men asking why she is with that white dude, you need to be with a real black man..ect
