I think it depends. Look at that first picture you posted: look at how happy the two of them look. In the second one, she looks happy, whereas he looks more like he really needs to pee, and is trying not to give that away until the picture's taken and he can run to the bathroom. That's probably just an awkward picture, though; I have a digital picture taken when I met Doctor Demento, and while I look like my normal self, his expression makes you think someone's pointing a gun at him.
But what matters is how they feel, not how they look. And thinking on it, I do suppose there's some advantage in not having worry about your partner stealing your sunscreen. THAT'D be a fun conversation to have, if I dated a black woman:
"Sweetie, aren't sunscreens usually based zinc oxide?"
"Um, the physical ones, I think. Why?"
"Because yours says 'May contain up to 30% concrete'."
"Well, that's what you need when your ancestors lived in a place where 'the sun' was considered a myth until the fourteenth century."
"Oh, come on, now."
"Don't believe me? Turn the bottle over."
"Wow! I've never seen a SPF label written in scientific notation before!"
"You're just jealous because YOU can't get sunburned watching fireworks.".
I'm also interested into interracial relationship :) I don't see race, colour or whatever, but inner beauty.
Black woman here dating a white man. We've been together for almost 7 years now!
I don't see us as an "interracial couple." We're a couple. That's why I hate when people throw race into everything; it shouldn't matter nowadays, yet it does.
I do find it annoying when we go out, people stare at us or glare at me (I don't really notice it so much as my boyfriend). It's ironic that it's more acceptable for black men to date outside their race, yet when black women do the same, people look at us oddly. I've even been called a "traitor" for not dating a black man- by other black people! SMDH. I don't care. I date who I like, regardless of color, and that's how it should be!
Thank you! :)
I just asked him: he said he's always been attracted to black women, but I was the first one he ever dated. He has dated Caucasian and Latina women before, but never a black women. He wanted to, and has been attracted to them since he was in school. But was afraid to approach them because he didn't think they would like him or date him. He is from Texas, so while interracial dating is more common, there are still people out there that look at us funny when they see us out together. I've learned to ignore them, or better still, smile in their face.
He was so cute approaching and asking me out, and has always treated me so well.
I have dated and liked guys of ALL races, but as silly as it sounds, I have had more luck dating outside my race than my own race. But that is my experience, I don't want anyone to think I hate black men or am against dating them- definitely not the case!
Don't ask us questions about things of this nature and then answer us by saying "You're racist" because they don't agree with YOUR beliefs.
And by the way it is not ONLY black people that look younger than they are. Personally I get people telling me all the time that I look 20 years younger than I am and I'm not black.
If you ask us questions here, and want our opinions and we answer honestly, remember, YOU are the one that asked us. Most of the people that answered were nice to you so, be nice back and grow up! Quit saying people are stuck in the 50's mentality! That's not it!!! It's about preference. Period!!
Preference? No hunny. People who are not racist don’t even see the colour difference as a problem. You are part of the problem. To be against a black and white couple dating is racist. Because if you wasn’t racist you’d be alright with it and wouldn’t even focus on the colour. Sounds to me like you’re defending them. little undercover racist here 😉
At a girl!!

Looks/is great.
People who shout "only date your own kind" are so lame.
There is nothing odd about it. What is there to be odd about?
u Anyone who disagrees with you is living in the 1950's? What was it like living in the 1950's?
In 1960, slightly less than 3% of all MARRIAGES in the US consisted of one white partner and one black partner. In 2000, thet number had slowly grown to 7.1% and to 7.9% in 2010.
Cultural framing is not going to go away for centuries. Is the hope that humanity becomes a unitary galactic civilization? If so, no one will care by the time the species is united for the stars. Until then, such couples will never be without external cultural judgement somewhere. If the individuals involved actually want to take care of each other, it's a non-issue.
African individuals are intrinsically closer to tribal behavior, so they tend to be wary of mixing. From couples I've known, there's no consistency on which family camp is supportive, race tends to be brought up more up front from the AA side though.
People should continues to keep what preferences they want as long as it doesn't affect others' freedoms.
Well, young folks just look like they are on a sex adventure.
Old interracial couples?
They are absolutely adorable.
But can we talk about intercultural relationships? Interracial in America always means "Black" and "White".
And then are Latinos "White" or not. And when do we stop referring to them as being Latinos?
Interracial as one person happens to find another someone they want to date. Thats fine.
When its because of political or social stigmas involved or a fetish, well its very disgusting then.
Unfortunately this is heavily involved in a large portion of white female black male relationships so its everyones first assumption. It also is a lot but to a lesser degree white men and Asian women. While as far as i know there is little to no cultural fetishization of say whites and hispanics mixing, I've never heard much about it in terms of things like "once you have a burrito you won't go back" lol. But it could be anyone on an individual basis.
I couldn't care less about other couples. People are obsessed and it's so annoying. Love who YOU love and stop worrying about what other people think and who they date.
@ShaTTeredMasterpeace It dont bother me at all. I actually think its hot and I think people should be able to date and love who they want without criticism
@priv9696 hey I got something for you 🖕
It's all good. Never had a problem with other people doing it or doing it myself.
Unfortunately haven't had the chance to date a black woman yet, not many live here in the cold north😅. Have seen a few really cute looking here and there but you know, never during the right time.
It's certainly a rarity in scandinavia😗
It's nice to see diversity. Thank God not everyone on this planet is so narrow-minded. Race really doesn't matter and SHOULD NOT matter when you love someone. I'm totally in favor of interracial couples since I'm mixed race. My mom is black and my dad is white.
Tbh I don’t really notice, it’s fairly common here and no one cares.
Also interracial is not just Black and White, there does seem to be too much emphasis on that.
I’ve dated Indian girls before and never had problems.
One of my friends is dating a girl from Kenya, she met her while out there working.
I don’t see any problem with it. I’m brown and my sister is married to a white man. When you’re in a relationship with someone of a different race you don’t see color. You only see the person.
It’s most people outside of that relationship (who are racist) that sees color.
My parents had a difficult time accepting her relationship at first, but once they got to know him they fell in love with him and we’re able to see past the cultural differences.
I dated almost so many girls from different backgrounds. I feel like it’s so common in California. And I’m Mexican too, and I dated three white girls, one Hispanic girl, one Indian girl, and two Asian girls. And had flings with every race. Not to mention, the others that I could’ve dated, but I was either too shy with them or didn’t feel the same. I just think all women are beautiful, so I’m don’t have a preference when it comes to what her skin color is like.
Not really to be honest, free love is what I tell my family. Let's see when I was in high school i dated a total of six white guys, two Hispanic guys, and one Korean fella. In college i dated four more white guys, another Korean fella, a guy from Pakistan, and a guy from India. Oh and my ex was white.
I don't really think about it.
Couples pick each other for lots of different reasons including their level of attraction. What I think means nothing so I generally don't have an opinion. I see two people together of opposite or sometimes the same gender look for basic cues at an instinctual level, that they're together then look elsewhere.
I am a white man married to a black woman for a long time. So I would say I think it looks good. As a matter of fact, I have never dated a white woman. I have dated several other races, guess it is just my preference. I do not have anything against white women. I have met many I would have dated just did not happen.
Skin color shouldn't matter! Let people love whoever they want to love!
People who have problems with who others decide to love are the people who need interventions!! Why limit love to a certain skin color?
If two people have that chemistry thing going for them, their race should be irrelevant.
I don't have anything against it nor do I think it's weird. But I do think it's BETTER if people stick to their own race because then your children won't really feel like they belong anywhere pluss your kids won't look anything like you. (If you're white)
The only thing that gets my head scratching is the couples that go all the way to marriage and a family especially since one of the two, scientifically the white person, will have kids that will look nothing like them since black genes are far more dominant than white ones same goes for Asian
Beautiful is a matter of taste not something absolute so your argument doesn't exactly contradict mine.
My issue is people naturally want to see their own image reflected in the face of their offsprings. It's part of the natural desire to reproduce and continue one's legacy.
But a white spouse will never have white kids with a black partner and will never be able to see his/her own image in the face of those kids and I wonder how some people are ok with that.
😂😂😂
They just look like any other couple to me. I usually judge couples based on whether they look happy together or not more than anything
I’m black and white, so I don’t see anything wrong with it. But a lot of people don’t think they should date out their race for some reason.
White supremacists still have even though I have white in me. The only benefit from it is that a lot of woman think I look really cute. Some girls said I look like Drake. I don’t think that cute but a lot of them say that. One girl said “omg you’re a really good looking guy.”. Other than that, that’s the only benefit you get. Even the white girls think I’m good looking. Oh and how can I forget my penis size (the most important thing 😂) my dick has different skin tone then the rest of my body. My penis its fully black and doesn’t have a light skin tone like the rest of me. the white girl I was with was so shocked by it she stopped and just stared at it. She said omg it’s so big and beautiful. 😂 I think a lot of mixed people look really good. But a lot of people hate us.
It does not matter but what fucks me up is that white women or non black women get called racist for not dating black men or for refusing black men. It is not my fault that i am not attracted to black men. I also dont understand why black women get called traitors for not dating black men but black men can date everyone without getting name called. Is this the reason why black women are kinda obsessed with dating/marrying black men? I dont know. It is cave man mentality to hate women of your race for not dating the men of your race but also you can date (/"own") women of every race. Sorrynotsorry
I dont know. I rarely find black men attractive and i also dont like their attitude.
This is my experience
I can't generalize of course
Black women are attractive and i know non black men who like black women but these women are kinda obsessed with black men since they are probably afraid of getting called traitors.
Proof that there is in fact much less racism these days than back then. But people love to play the victim and blame game to makeup for the imperfections in their lives.
So annoying. Tired of people saying shit that is truly incorrect, as if it’s a matter of fact. Despite all evidence proving it to be false
You're correct, there's very little doubt about that. The truth is, some people are still racist. O don't mind getting stares from random people in the public because of my skin colour, but racism becomes a huge problem when its people in positions of power who are racist, whether that be juries, judges, politician, police officers, even teachers. The more influence someone has over your life and future, the worse any degree of racism becomes. Youd be an idiot to argue that there are no people in these positions of power that are racist (not even just America, it applies to everyone)
I think it's all good if the relationship is a sincere one. It really gets on my nerves when people fake stuff to try and seem favorable
All I care about is that people don't fetishize race. If its a 100% genuine connection then all power to anyone couple of any combination.
Ay, people like who they like, I don't really care if I see a black dude with a white girl or vice versa, if they're happy I don't see a reason to say anything
I think it has nothing to do with me? Skin colour doesn't mean anything or impact how "a couple looks" together to me/
A couple is a couple & as long as they are happy that is all that counts.
I think Whites and Hispanics go good together. Not just looks wise, but it is easy for them to get along with each other's families without difficulties/drama. At least from what I have personally seen.
Yes, they look odd; but then again, we have the following oddities:
1. Barack Obama (White mom and black dad).
2. Mocha (chocolate, milk, and coffee).
3. "Ebony and Ivory" by Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney.
Do you know of others?
I know it's a nightmare for pics.
But it's manageable, advised to take two pictures with different settings.
It's way more normal in real life, thanks the human brain.
Second dude is my spirit animal "seriously, another picture?"
Honestly, date whoever you want. If that doesn't hurt anyone, why care? I'm more neutral on the topic. I definitely don't favor it in my own life that much, but I can care less what other choose to do with their lives.
I think it's fine as long as the two people are genuinely in love. Don't use another human being as a token to fulfill some fetish just for the hell of it.
They look ok. I am into interracial relationships actually
That doesn't mean i shouldn't have preferences
Or *we
I feel that they look perfect and I wish I too had that
I'm white and with a Latina. I prefer darker features. Dad could never figure it out but we had a lot of Hispanic neighbors and the Puerto Rican girl next door must have left an imprint on me to prefer dark eyes and black hair
My opinion is IDC as long as they make eachother happy, I'm happy for them
Interracial relationship is road maps to peace and prosperity, trust and tranquility, happy and harmony.
World will be peceful paradise.
I don't see interracial couples that often, but when I do I just think "awe, that's cute".
Who cares? Its their choice to love who they want and be with who makes them happy. Its not our place to judge them for it.
White guys with Asian or Latina women looks good to me.
How did I hate on black women?
You asked if I think interracial couples look good together?
Yeah I think it's cute and see no problem with it love has no color or differences at the end of the day it's their love that counts!
Interracial couples we have no problem with since we have a few as playmates. It's the dressing the same that needs to be refrained from! LOL!
Good, and the same race couples the same. It's nothing wrong.
………. Don’t have an opinion just getting tired of this constantly showing up on my feed because gag is trying to force me to answer……..
No not odd at all, it's just two people in a relationship, their skin colour doesn't make it odd.
I find that awesome, I might go for Interracial too
Those people look like mentally ill soy cadets that might shoot up a school in the near future.
They are okay and not weird but people needs to mind their own business and let those couples live their happy lives.
I do find it weird at first. That being said it seem to work out, so I don't think it wrong in any way. Just not something I see every day.
I think that both ways are nice if guy and girl truly love each other. But I don't know any examples from real life because we don't really have Black people here
The top black girl has a great butt and pretty face
I really don't care about what other people do with their personal lives. It's not an issue
Interracial marriages or relationship is not a problem, everybody have his choice, love do not care for Colour and Race, mostly white women is attracted to Black men due to their sexual performance
I don't think it's been much of an issue since the 1970's, except in "slower" parts of the country.
meh. i'm completely indifferent. good for them, i guess.
I have no bad heart towards it, love is not forced and is not based on one's skin colour. Love which is real Got no colour.
Yeah it’s not for me, I’m not judging but I wouldn’t go there. Just a personal preference. I would date Asian or Latino just not black.
Not odd. They're still normal couples like all. Some look good, some don't.
I think choosing someone based on the color of their skin, like you're inferring here, is racism
