My date dislikes blacks and asians

Whether they agree or not, that's racism and they're being racist. Only backwards minded people are racist in the 21st century. Personally, I wouldn't tolerate racism towards anyone because it says a lot about the person themselves. My opinion only.

I have recently met someone and I have been on a few dates with them. I get on well with this person and I like spending time in their company.

However, on a few occasions on our dates, they have made some comments about the number of black and Asian people there are in this city (this person is originally from elsewhere). I have felt a little bit embarrassed and uncomfortable when they have said it.

Being that I am from this city, I am used to there being a lot of ethnic people. I am not hugely in favour of immigration; I think there has been too much of it, but I try not to think about it too much as it's something I have no control over.

I would rather just concentrate on my own life, but I'm worried that this person I am dating may continue to comment on how many ethnic people there are and it might effect our relationship.

I don't want to tell them they are wrong, everyone is entitled to their opinion on every subject. I feel that the fact that they have told me their thoughts shows a degree of trust they have in me which I don't want to break. But I just don't want to hear about political and social subjects all the time, especially with someone I am romantically involved with.

Any advice on how I could subtly let them know that I don't like hearing or talking about it?

Yes that is your opinion, an ill-informed one at that. A lot of people feel uncomfortable about the sheer numbers of non-English people living in their own country. To admit that it NOT racist. Racism is hatred for people based on their racial origins, not concern about the numbers of people from overseas here. Ask some 3d generation Indian or Jamaican whether they feel comfortable about the huge increase in the migrant population and you will hear the same concerns as many English people. That is not racism. Educate yourself before making such comments on here.

While you are supporting racism at least be honest and change NON ENGLISH TO NON WHITE. Lets face it that is what you really mean. We all know you are complaining about the darker looking people.

So why are you still dating this person with disgusting views?? A few dates in and already is unleashing it, I wonder what he/she will say when you start dating for a while.

Don't cry to TSR when your date takes you to a Clan meeting for your anniversary.

What's funny is that I have read from racist themselves online that the way for them to test the waters with a new partner and make them either racist themselves or comfortable with their racist views is to slowly introduce racist conversation with them.

Such as insulting an ethnic persons intelligence, they won't be extremely racist on the first date because they know its not really an attractive quality and would likely be dumped on the first date but if they introduce it slowly it will not be such a surprise to a date and they may end up converting them to such racist views.

Almost similar to the way a violent partner is not violent straight away with their partner but they will slowly build up a pattern of behaviour, until they have total dominance over the victim.

So all those posters saying it does not mean they are racist think again.
