How do I help my boyfriend feel more comfortable when people give us looks?

So I've been dating this guy for some time now & our relationship is interracial. So when we go out he always makes these comments that people were/are looking at us etc. for me personally its not a problem. I dont really care because its my relationship & i feel like people who give us weird looks or whatever have some digging to do within themselves cause its obviously a problem that they have, so its not really anything i did so is shouldn't feel uncomfortable by them staring, especially with the older generation, i think its like a generation gap of sorts?

But the question i really have is, him paying attention to this & asking me what my take on the situation is as well as if it bothers me or not & asking it as often as he does tells me that it makes him extremely uncomfortable.. Is there anything i can do to help him feel more comfortable with the situation? I've explained to him that its a them thing & not a us thing & he agrees, but i think he's still uncomfortable. At the same time, Im the only girl of a different race group that he's actually officially dated, so i think maybe this makes it worse? Apparently he was seeing someone of a different race once before me, but they never actually dated.

How do i approach this?
