Would you or have you ever dated outside of your own race?

[Fingerprint]

Just interested to get peoples opinions on this. I grew in Birmingham and never really considered this an issue as I was always used to being around so many different types of people. I know a lot of people are uncomfortable with the idea of dating someone from a different ethnic background. What are your thoughts?

[joshieboyo]

Dear me, I would not have and I still do not like to see it. I don't think it is right and I believe that people should marry/be in a relationship only with people of the same race.

[naz_nomad]

Yes, I have been with several Earthlings ... they all look alike to me.

[unruliejulie]

outside my race eh!!!! that would mean anyone NOT from Leicester, thats a race isnt it???! Errrrrrrrr, might have but then again, dont think so! :-)

after living in elephant and castle, probably the most multicutural place in the uk, and the most friendly, i see people as people, and yes please

[sophie_1003]

my boyfriends half iranian...does that count lol? and no have no problem with it at all, everyones human so why should the colour of their skin/ religious beliefs make them un-dateable to people who have different skin colour/ religion??

[dot.hawkes]

i would have dated Mr Spock, he was a Vulcan

[dot.hawkes]

actually Mork was quite cool, oh and Jeff Bridges in starman, very sexy, does Angelis count? Cos vampires are not really human are they? i would never ever date a Jaffa though, like in Stargate

Not dated outside my own race but had a one nighter with an Indian lady a couple of years ago.

Would love to date a Chinese lady....Vanessa Mae preferably

[raysparx1]

Went out with a girl from Germany,does that count ? also a Brazilian, she was georgeous, and a girl that was half spanish, hope my wife ain't on here tonight, lol,

Yes i have, race desn't bother me at all, a person is a person whatever their skin colour.

Me personally, no problems with it. I'm a British white, I did date a kurdish man many years ago but only for a short time, I knew it would not last purely because his family in his homeland expected him to be dating / marry someone of his "own kind". Its only because he was at the time in England, he 'hid' our relationship. But i did knew this at the time and accepted it. I'm now very happily in a relationship with a white English man, but have no regrets of my past.

My brother has married a chinese lady (who I get on with very well with and she is a great sis-in-law). I now have a 3 yr old niece who is half chinese/half english and very beautiful. As long as the families don't get involved then the mixed relationship can work, I know some religions and cultures see mixed relationships as a definate no-no.

[whiskeysheri]

I haven't, no, but then I've only been out with two guys in my life. Stan Collymore is more than welcome to have a go, though. Excuse the expression, I'm a lady, really! :o)) x

lol, whiskey, i believe you.........xxx

[Panic Button]

A Malteser and an Egyptian in my past.
Ah, happy memories.
(Oh and Scottish. Does that count?0

[muppeteer]

its quite an old fashioned thing to be bothered about. in the next 20 or 30 yrs it prob wont be an issue. personally i'm easy (not as in loose!)
if people have mixed race children & in 1000's years there were no all white/black/indian/chinese etc people left in the world i would not really care (& not just cos i will be dead in 1000's yrs either- it just would not matter)
heres a good solution. poke everyones eyes out with a stick & then you wont be able to tell!

[Ctrak]

I haven't as the opportunity arises approximately as often as Jesus pays me a visit.

But I'd definitely date an Asian woman.

[-Z-]

I like dark women.....favorite is latin women.....Italian/South American....

There are a few blue eyed blondes I like but I do much prefer the darker lady.

Chinese women are just sooooo beautiful.

Ive gone off Bouncee tho ..dunno why ...since she left Destinies Child she dont have the same pzazz

[battersby]

My husband is half Armenian,brought up in UK. He's the most loving,caring man a woman could wish for and handsome although his thick black hair is turning grey. My 1st husband was welsh,well off parent's,spoilt and a womaniser who left his children without so much as a backward glance. Colour or creed does'nt matter,it's the person inside that counts.

[curlyfilm!]

oh yes i forgot, i went out with a girl from columbia, very shortly
