God certainly made wonderful women of every ethnic group. I'm more concerned about cultural differences, not ethnic differences. Cultural differences - major ones - can really add a challenge to any relationship. Here's the catch: cultural differences don't necessarily relate to an ethnic group. Although I'm white, I have very little in common, culturally, with many white women. So, to me, someone's ethnic association is of little importance. The important thing is, "Do we have enough in common to have a relationship - in our core values and how we look at life?" - regardless of race.

I've dated them all, Black, white, tan, brown, red... once I even dated a blue woman... but thats a whole different story!

The only race that matters is the human one and if you find somebody that you connect with, regardless of any of the things used to seperate us into opposing groups, hold on to that connection. Treasure it and treat it like it's the gift that it is.

I work as an aid for my mom who lives in a government apartment near a school.

Today a very young black girl came over and asked me if I had a girl friend. I told her not at the present time. She informed me that she was speaking for her friend across the parking lot that wanted to be with me and be my girl and then she said the girl was 18.

I smiled and informed her that she was a bit young for me to *date*.

Not the first time I've been approached by several different age ranges of ladies there in the parking lot for dating (and they were ladies not hookers if your mind went there).

Most flattering and I could have all the sex a man could want if that is what I wanted. Fortunately I want more I think.

I don't Love a colour. I Love a man.

This man could have been pink, green or orange and he still would have won my heart. He simply had what it took.

His colour is of no consequence to me. My colour is of no consequence to him :heart:

Honestly, I think a lot of people say it's not a issue, but would prefer their own race.

Me personally it's not a issue. flowerforyou

The problem is that hate teaches hate. You have to be willing to go outside the status quo for you family and realize that it's wrong to do that. A lot of people are taught that skin color matters. I know my family tried hard to teach me that. I chose to step back and look for myself, look at what the Bible really said, because that is what they tried to tell me their position came from, and go from there. Unless everyone chooses to do that, then yes, there is a lot of fear in those kinds of relationships. I wish you luck in finding love, from whatever direction it comes from. God bless.

I would actually like to date black or hispanic women because I find them very attractive. I just have a hard time approaching them cuz I think they will turn me down. I guess it's because I live in the deep south and race still seems to be an issue in some of these parts.

I have dated outside, I've never really thought about it, except her..she was from India...one of the best girlfriend I've ever head. I also mailed (not e-mailed) with a black girl, she was very nice and I hoped for a date, but I figured out she was married..don't know why she lied though..

Who says men are afraid? Some men don't date red heads does that mean they are afraid of red heads? I think not. It's about personal preference, not fear.

Are you saying there is a color? I must be getting real old in my time. I always thought people where people , not color where color. I have friends that are black and white married and they have a beautiful marrage. I'm jealous.

I don't believe in race.
It's an arbitrary construct designed by a bunch of old men
in attempt to describe what they totally didn't understand.

besides, in the last 8 years the human genome project
which has mapped the human DNA
conclusively shows that race is an illusion.

what I care about is how you think. how you feel.
how you're going to treat me when you're having a really bad day.

besides, everyone's beautiful.
