[QUOTE="LEMONed IScream, post: 1179702, member: 4287"] I have mixed feelings about this. If I see a mixed race couple, and particularly, a mixed race couple involving a white woman, it's not something I get particularly irked about. It generally doesn't bother me and it's not something I lose sleep about. However, I must admit this adverstising crap about making interracial "cool" for the sake of it does piss me off a bit. Particularly when they demean a race over the other, it usually happens with whites, but I'd be bothered as well if I saw some "Hey black women, marry white men because they have more money, are smarter and kinder, unlike black men" or something like that. Just strikes me off as SO tasteless. Why don't people just let dating occur "naturally"? Being induced into liking this or that doesn't produce very good results regarding a marriage and offspring. I personally find women of all races attractive. BUT, when it comes to a more romantic outlook, call it "love" if you will, or affection, I can't say I have felt it for black women, the darker sort of latinas, the really dark Indians etc. I simply have not and I doubt I can, maybe it's my "racist" brain, but only Hu-White women (plus some arabs and persians) and East Asians (rare cases though) seem to do it for me.
