What Do People In Interracial Relationships Do When Racial Tensions Hit?

[Tae]

You don't have to subscribe to race classification systems to appreciate differences between people. So, dismissing race has little to do with not acknowledging differences. What makes you think that focusing on race is the only way of appreciating the differences between groups of people?

Race is a way to classify people, but it is more than simply a label, it is your culture your ancestors. It is something you should be proud of.
If tomorrow there was consensus that people would no longer be classified by race people would still find a way to label (and subjugate) people who are different from them. In ancient times there was no race just labels for nationality, which gradually morphed into race labels.
My point is taking away race would not solve anything, people need to learn treat others as they want to be treated, but we are human and that has not happened in the thousands of years humans have been on this planet, and it will probably not happen until we are erased from this planet.

Its pretty normal. My wife is black and when convos come up around things the OP mentioned we just have a conversation...

imean why would it Be different? Michael Brown comes up. The cop was racist and acted as such. Adressed and agreed upon. Lol i don't get it. Discussion of facts arent complicated. Our son learns about both sides of the family. Just the same as any other kid...

I can't wait till it's humans vs. aliens or something like that, at least race will be a thing of the past, lmao...

If given the option, I'd fight with the aliens to destroy whites....Sheeeit...

Far as the OP goes....traditionally, the male is the one that dictates the culture, beliefs, and behaviors of the marriage. While this has never been true in ALL instances, and is almost certainly dwindling in America and other western nations due to the influx of feminist beliefs....on average it's probably safe to assume that the woman is going to be more malleable and favor the males argument. BM/WF - The girl will be, on average, more inclined towards civil rights and equality. WM/BF - The girl will be, on average, more inclined towards the status quo and conservatism. For me, this has held up anecdotally, although I've also seen the opposite on both spectrums e.g. the "down" white guy that dates sistahs or the c00nin' black guy that dates white women.

And my point is if it was human vs. aliens, we'd be too worried about other things than wasting our energy persecuting each other based on racial assumptions. And keeping race in the picture hasn't solved anything either so to say taking it anyway wouldn't is silly because it hasn't been tested. The only way to end racial (notice I said racial) discrimination is by making race invalid. Sure people might find other reason to hate on each other, but it wouldn't be from the parameters and context of race, which is what my objective is.

As far as pride and all those other things, you should be proud in general, not because of some historical situation you had no control over. There are such things as ethnicity and heritage. If you want something celebrate, why not this? That a lot different than saying I'm going to celebrate my blackness. Black and white are just concepts, not reality. Reality is just because my skin tone is a certain color and my facial makeup is different, it'd be foolish to make any assumption about me other than my skin being a certain color an my face looking a certain way. I mean, assuming your black too, what other similarities do we share? We probably grew up in different environments, raised differently with different expectations, maybe even experienced discrimination in different ways for different reason. Not only that, we've, more than likely, internalized our experiences differently, regardless of our "shared" race. We're totally different people. To say we look the same is to say we look the same, not that we act the same, have the same upbringing or possible not even the same heritage.

Long story short, it's a flawed system that has, in my humble opinion, run its course.

Fortunately, I don't have to worry about this.

I don't want date outside my race.

I meant to say black women who date out, in terms of looks.

Dark skinned, flat butt. Slim. Average looks. Never saw a white man in public with a black woman I was jealous of him having. Usually some white washed chick who acts like a ditzy sorority girl.

Like.......oh my god

Type chick. White boys like dumb women or at least the illusion of stupidity in black women but still these sistas end up running circles around them.

 

[christinasade]

The OP is acting like this is so complex. I have dated/talked to many super liberal white women(which they are many of btw) who agreed with my opinions on the Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown situation and I can easily have a racial discussion with them. Some even agreed that they don't like white privilege. Heck IIRC this white girl I knew from my old retailing job said she hated Mitt Romney with a passion. Heck our very own @biscuitsnbangers is a good object example of what I am saying.

If you're going to date a white person then date one who is very liberal and has an understanding of black struggle in this country. Not some naive, airhead, spoiled, clueless conservative. Like one posted on page 3 said, its called dating reasonable people...

and those same "liberal" white hoes and non black women period

still shyt on black women.


heres a great question, what do black dudes do when their non black girlfriend shyts on black women? do you defend or do you not say anything? .

 

[christinasade]

My wife and I talk about my views and she knows how I feel and is on board with everything I have to say.

She knows were pushing my son to the black side to avoid washing the blackness complately out with our grandchildren.

She knows how I feel about cacs and their injustice.

She knows cacs ain't shyt.

She doesn't want our son bringing home a cac woman.

I'm not sure what you want me to say about her. She's great

but does she want homeboy to bring home a black woman--and i dont mean a half breeed i mean a REAL black woman?

 

[christinasade]

Black mom with non black mixed kids you largely see in cac areas

Black father with mixed kids you largely don't see in public.

Non black mom with half black child you see, alone no matter where they are

When we see these asian women in public with their half black kid they be tryin to bond with us n shyt but I don't see no ring on her finger So im like probably scheming on my dikk you feel me

damn, even non black women can shake the single mom syndrome.

hey is it fair to assume that because single motherhood happens to other women of other races who mess with black men.....that singlemotherhood is not really black womens

fault then?


this IS a legit question, i would make a thread.....but i wouldnt get anything but trolls.

I think single motherhood largely falls on the man. Obviously there are circumstances where a woman is so unreasonable and insufferable that she is impossible to deal with on a relationship level that a split is inevitable but I believe americanized black men are overly sexual and largely look at women, their own and everyone else's as sex objects and once the relationship gets too real by the coming of a child bruh realizes that he only liked the woman physically and leaves or isn't ready to stop sleeping with a plethora of women in exchange for family and gets dismissed by the woman.

This happens to white people often as roughly 60 million white children are born of wedlock and over half of whites in america get divorced with over 50 million white women raising children alone in modern american times but black people don't really give a shyt about white single mothers because it's not our business though.

We talked about it and I explained that if he brings home an asian the black is basically washed out so we agreed to push him toward a dark skinned woman. She's on board.

Life is unpredictable though. We defiantly dint want him bringing a white girl home it's our biggest fear
