Re: Do you date outside your race?Never been out with anybody outside my own race, but not for any particular reason. I've had crushes on people of different races (I had a massive crush on a guy who was half-Kenyan Asian at school). To me, race isn't an issue - it's just sort of an accident that the people who have liked me back were also white.

Re: Do you date outside your race?The last two guys I was with were both were Persian and English, so I would say I'm open to dating outside my race. But I don't limit myself to a specific race. For me, it's more about an instant long-lasting mutual attraction for another person and if this person happens to be from god knows where, then that is not going to stop me from dating them.
I'm lucky in the fact that I come from a diverse family of many cultures and colours. I have an aunt who is Norwegian, another who is English. Some of my family who are from another religion entirely, i.e. Muslim. I'm blessed in the fact that I don't face any obstacles in my choice of partner that some people do from my family and friends.

Re: Do you date outside your race?Yes. I am British Indian and I have dated white, asian and black girls. If they're attractive to me and on a level I don't see a problem with it.
I think most people usually date within their own race but there are exceptions. This is why interracial dating is so rare.
What annoys me is those girls that go exclusively for a certain race because its 'in right now' or 'cool'. I find it so insensitive and lame.Last edited by MancBoy; 19-07-2012 at 02:29. -

Re: Do you date outside your race?I love you man!! If I was a white girl I'd go out with you.(Original post by Mr Smurf)
I would date outside my race since im really into white girls. But being an Oriental guy, its hard because they never seem to go for us.

Re: Do you date outside your race?Of course, I kinda like the whole interracial dating thing, having a girl that's a different colour to me and I think I've been generally attracted to mainly white and asian girls. It seems more vibrant, I like all girls though, I'm getting more attracted to my race though,

Re: Do you date outside your race?As Caucasoids (like North Indians and Europeans) I find them attractive. However there are cultural and ethnic reasons I limit my preference only to Europeans, specifically North-Western European Caucasoids. I not only personally oppose inter-racial but inter-ethnic relationships as well.(Original post by darkxangel)
ohhh, what about middle-eastern girls? -

Re: Do you date outside your race?Yes. I'm black and I'm generally attracted to guys of any race, though I've found myself only having been on dates with white guys. I've never really had a proper relationship before, but I've had a couple of childhood romances who were white. I don't find dating in general at all easy tbh, but I'm usually always around more white people, so it seems statistically I'm more likely to be involved with them.

Re: Do you date outside your race?For me it would be impossible not to, I literally don't belong to any one race. I'm half white english and half egyptian. Unless I were to find another person of the exact same mix I'm always going interracial, obviously it doesn't matter to me and i find it weird and incomprehensible that it would to anyone.
I've been with mostly white and middle-eastern women but i have no preference except that I like dark features on a girl. Don't know why but dark hair and dark eyes has always been a thing. I find indian women super-attractive but haven't been with one yet lol, and obviously never been with an egyptian before cause there are barely any of us here in the UK. -

Re: Do you date outside your race?Im white and used to date white guys in my teens, but since ive been 17 ive only been attracted to black guys, maybe its a fad i dont know but im mega attracted to them. My BF is black. I do like it when im out with him, some people look at us and i find it quite nice, may be its because we're both attractive i dont know.

Re: Do you date outside your race?i've never dated because of parent pressure but i think i would date only outside my race (again because of parent pressure).
I'm british born indian and my parents don't like me/won't let me go out with white women or anyone non indian. I've made it pretty clear to them I don't like indian women and will never marry an indian. At first it started just to piss them off but after seeing how indians in my family behave (mum, sister, aunts and cousin sisters), i'm repulsed by indian women more than ever.
I wouldn't mind dating white or south american ladies. I find them really hot but of course I wouldn't date a chav etc. A normal human who can speak english you know?

Re: Do you date outside your race?I'm half White British, half S.American so i don't really have a choice to date outside my own race unless i went around hunting for someone with the exact same ethnic background.. which would be a little weird
Where I live is really the exact opposite of culturally diverse and as a result i've only really ever had white friends, and only mix with white people so I probably find them the most attractive..as long as they're not too skinny haha, but saying that I also really like middle eastern guys and i don't know any of them. I would theoretically date any race though if i liked him and found him attractive, i think not to do so would limit myself on the kind of person i could meet
