Is it ok for me as a white person to date a POC?

[Anonymous]

I am a Jewish white guy in college and I am attracted to women of all races. I am just wondering if it is ok for me to date a Person of color? I recognize my privilege and I sincerely try not to be ignorant.

There's nothing wrong with dating anyone of any color, just realize, as you stated, that there are inherently some issues when dating someone from a background unlike your own.

All you can do is be open to what comes both negative and positive, and be open to changing your ideas and opinions about yourself and others. You can learn about other cultures and family structures and most of all, you can have fun learning these new experiences. Good luck.

Firstly, you are more privileged compared to other races BUT that’s not really a thing to care about. It’s a fact to accept and respect but I find it weird when people define themselves like that or act like it’s a problem to be white.

Obviously it’s ok dude, stop talking about your race like you hold some responsibility for others. You don’t.

Gordon Bennet what the hell is wrong with this world... OF COURSE IT BLOODY IS!

I HIGHLY DOUBT ANYONE IS ONE PURE RACE ANYWAYS!

Well, you can try, but casually flinging around racial slurs like that isn't going to help.

I am white and I dated Asian. He was my first love and the hottest man I’ve ever set my eyes on. Mind you, my type is blue eyes blond hair. But still, the hottest man I’ve seen is my first boyfriend, who is Asian.

So, don’t limit yourself. And don’t look down on others. There’s no such thing as privilege because of color.

How dare you? you should date a good Jewish girl, God would punish you for it, you see. :)

Why wouldn't it be ok?

Also white privilege is BS so drop that stuff man, seriously.

[LiamJHayden]

No. Not because you're white, but because you think you have to ask permission.

Of course. It’s just a person, and if they’re interested in you too then go for it.

Only if you stop using the stupid term “POC”

Race doesn't matter. Date people who you can love and who can love you.
