A while back one of my readers, kevneiljan, asked me my thoughts on interracial dating (sorry for the delayed response). To be quite honest, though, I never really gave it much thought. I love Black women and, to date, I've only been with one woman that wasn't Black and even then she was Puerto Rican (and that doesn't really count in my book).
Now have I ever found a woman of another race attractive? Of course, I can appreciate beauty in any woman but I've never seriously thought about crossing that line—never really had the opportunity either. Sure everyone gets curious every now and again, like Hmm, I wonder what so-and-so is like, but it's never been that big of a deal to me. At the end of the day we're all the same with the same equipment and I doubt skin color or race will make that much of a difference. I mean, does it? Backshots are backshots, head is head, and crazy is crazy. What really makes a difference is the actual individual you’re dealing with, regardless of race, creed, or color.
That doesn't mean that I'd never play with any other crayons in the Crayola box, because if I met someone that I really, really liked; what does their race have to do with anything? But try telling that to a Black woman. From what I’ve seen, it’s a very touchy subject for sisters.

Truthfully, that might be part of the reason why I haven't dabbled outside the coloring line like that because I’ve seen sisters’ screwfacing a brother with an "other" on his arm. Shoot, and I used to have locks too? Man, that would make it even worse to see a dark skinned brother with locks with a White girl on his arm. My Black Coochie Card would be revoked with the quickness, and that’s something I can’t live without. LOL
I can't even front, though, it kinda goes both ways. I’ll admit I do a double take when I see a fly sister with an "other," but it’s just out of reflex then I keep it moving because I understand that people are free to see whomever they want. The only time I may take issue is when the "other" is corny. While I'm sure he/she might be a great person, but to see a fly person with a sub par mate just makes me shake my head. But really why is it any of my or your business?
Instead of focusing on the color of someone's skin why not focus on how they treat the person they’re with? Character and true love should hold more weight that pigmentation and melanin. I'd much rather see my sister happy and in love with a "other" than sad and abused with a man that happens to be the same color as her. Just doesn't add up in my book. Yeah, my dream girl is a woman of color but if God just so happened to place her in a different colored package; who am I to judge? They say love is blind, I wonder if they meant color blind, too?
Where do y’all stand on interracial dating? Are you pro or con? For those that have dated outside of their race, does it really make a difference? For those opposed to it, why are you so against it? Would you care of your child dated someone of another race or just be happy that they found someone that truly loves them? Could you actually marry someone of another race?
