I don't care who another dates, but it is true that it speaks far more than what some people think, an individual choice based on personal preference, that is. That's just a fact.
Many, if not most "interracial" relationships I've seen are shallow as hell, with nothing behind them except the rush of being with someone "different" because it's considered taboo, or because they think they're "sticking it" to someone else, or because they want "pretty mixed babies" and to show they're so accepting and tolerant, and blah, phony.
What's real to me are those who stick it out no matter what, which I doubt many interracial couples could do. I mean, say there were a race war, and anyone black were automatically to be put to death, along with whatever spouse they had by the ruling white majority. How many non-blacks would stay with their black spouse? I doubt very many.
I remember reading, that when that Japanese earthquake and tsunami happened, so many white men got up out of Japan, back for their homeland, leaving behind their Japanese wives and mixed children, without a second thought. Shame, but it brought things into perspective for many.
As in, you're dating/marriage material when things are fair, not when one actually has to stick it out through the storm, because what would make you think you're worth
that much?
