my sister is mixed, and she's had no problems with her identity...other
than trying to figure out the best way to take care of her hair.

i have watched her be treated like sewer-sludge...we moved to an
all-white town when she was younger, and they weren't exactly too nice
to her, that is...until she bloomed.

i watched her go back to that town and fill in as a substitute teacher
at the local middle school...where some boys thought it would be
hilarious to right "go back to africa, ******" on the board while she
had stepped out. sad...but she's a much stronger person than most
people i know.

hell, she's prettier inside AND out.

I'm not saying that what you've seen has no weight to it, I know that
our society as a whole sucks. BUT it will not change if we don't change
it. WE can control our own lives, love who we want, and as long as we
care for our children, they will turn out great.

I personally don't mind walking into a wall of a big beautiful black
man! :heart: bigsmile

Sadly not everyone does care for their children. They become
disenfranchised. They are left in foster care, are on their own at a
young age and a vast majority of these children become lifelong
offenders.

Again, all I am saying is that we need to consider all the possibilities
of ANY relationship. Certainly the same can happen to children in any
relationship but I was attempting to follow the thread.

There seems to be a abundance of feel good-ism going on here and the
question posed should have been taken seriously.

I am taking this seriously, I'm taking it VERY seriously. I'm not naieve
enough to think that the world is without flaws. Basically ur sayin that
everyone should be steralized...

And what is so wrong with Feel goodism? So we are encouraging people to
do what makes them happy!! If the whole world would learn to follow
their hearts and not what everyone else thinks it would be a much better
place. If we can start that one person at a time, that is cool with me.

I have no idea where you got the sterilization thing. As for being
naive...I have no idea. All I was saying was there are more issues
involved than will my parents have a cow.

We all know that part. Thats not what she asked. Again, not caring what
society thinks, feels, or does is a good thing.


The sterilization thing was a sarcastic summary of your previous
post....

Anyway, if I choose to marry a man who happens to have a darker shade of
skin then my own should I consult society first or just go with whom I
love? I want to be a mother more than anything on earth, so no matter
what color/colors they are I couldnt care less.

i'd like to point out that race is a social construct, not a biological
one. from a biological standpoint, race doesn't exist at all...i can
have more in common genetically with a so-called "black" person than
with a "white".

i look forward to our being so scrambled that this is a complete
non-issue, as it should be now.

I would never date a NASCAR lady but would consider and INDY CAR gal.
Basically, they're in the same sport but different races....
