I'm locking this thread because the discussion is getting out of hand again, as usual. If you want a legitimate discussion on this, provide some prompts to guide the discussion so that it doesn't derail as easily. Or find a better subreddit.

Kinda sad that I know a lot of people who have to hide their relationships from their parents, but I think a vast vast majority of students agree that it's fine because why the fuck wouldn't it be

It can be hard for sure. Mostly in terms of dealing with parents. I'm mixed so my parents wouldn't care, but every girl I have dated has stressed some parental worries about me not being the same race.

[–]questionable_18 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah, it really depends on the person and their parents. I don't think it should matter, but some people prefer to date within their ethnic background.

you'd think that culture is a big issue, but i find that most 1.5-2nd gen immigrant kids (i came from china when i was like 4 that's 1.5 gen right) have roughly the same shared set of experiences of alienation and self-identity that gives them more commonality than people would think. that, or i hang around people who are like me and just happen to be of different colours so ethnicity isn't a big deal for me

i kind ofreally have a thing for cute brown weeb girls though

Tbh I think if you GAF then GAF and if you DGAF then DGAF. It's your choice which one you are and just respect his/her choice too. It's not racist to have a racial preference for your partner in life.

I'm not asian. When I started here, I didn't even notice asian girls.

Oh how things change.

I find that idea more acceptable than dating someone my own ethnicity to be honest. Probably a result of me having grown up largely away from my own ethnicity and being allergic to my own ethnic foods.

[–]wafflesquares4A Psych 8 ポイント9 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think this is an important point in that ethnicity isn't the same thing as culture. I'm Guyanese by ethnicity but I was brought up basically Canadian (with a couple of food- and holiday-based exceptions).

Personally I have much more in common with my white, Canadian-raised boyfriend than any Guyanese guy I've talked to or dated or even been friends with, because my boyfriend and I had more similar upbringings.

I don't see why I should care about what ethnicity they are. Somebody explain

"Race mixing is bad," seems to be the general vibe wherever you go.

One of my good friends is dating a girl of the same ethnicity but doesn't practice the same religion as him, nor from the same state/culture as him. His relationship is a massive secret still to this day due to his parents. Personally, I'd only date people of the same ethnicity as me out of my own comfort and FOB upbringing

Lately I've been seeing a few asian guy & caucasian girl couples on campus.

I am in one of those couples :P We feel like unicorns sometimes and get excited when we see other couples like us haha

Absolutely unthinkable. The first thing I look for in a potential partner is race.

[–]dhanraj123 46 ポイント47 ポイント  (3子コメント)

Which race though 50m, 100, or 1600m?

[–]ehhhkSpirit of Why Not 9 ポイント10 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Call my interests niche, but my preferred race is 110m hurdles.

[–]TheBalrogofMelkorenvironment 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

1600, if the 3k and steeplechase aren't counted. All about that endurance.

[–]TheBalrogofMelkorenvironment 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Right off the bat, I want to point out that having a sexual preference for certain ethnicities or races isn't racist, despite what some people say. If you won't date a Pakistani because you prefer black guys, that's fine. If you won't date a Pakistani because they're inferior(/stupid/dirty/murders/occupy Kashmir), you're a shithead.

So I don't care who you date, and you can't interfere with who I date. And yes, I do mean can't. Because I've never had a date for you to interfere with :(.

Don't see another ethnicity being a problem for me. I've been mostly attracted to asian women in the past and I'm brown.

OP are you asking for my thoughts about me dating a person of another ethnicity, or someone else dating a person of another ethnicity?

For myself: I don't care much. Of course I'll ask my parents for their opinions, not from a deciding point of view, but to see if they think my partner is a shitbag or not (they're older and won't be fogged by emotions like I would be).

For others: Date whoever you want, long as they get you hard or wet.

im so attracted to east asian men but the majority of my family (we're not east asian) don't speak english. i think i've just unconsciously stuck to my own ethnicity to avoid a possible communication barrier.

as an asian male, i've only had asian girlfriends but u know what, to each his own

I'd like to think I can date outside my race, but lets be honest. In reality all girls want white guys (same as all Asians/brown guys want white girls). Being the degenerate that I am, it's honestly not even possible to date, let alone outside of my race. Such is life.

[–][deleted] -4 ポイント-3 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Bad idea.

Personally, I'm kind of picky in terms of looks and for the most part I've only really ever been attracted to white girls (although they don't have to be in CS)
