Interracial Dating

2010-03-12 Interracial Dating - Feature

Kevin: Being in an interracial relationship is as hard as you make it. If you want to focus on that the entire time and you want to focus on the fact that you are in an interracial relationship then thats all its going to be and thats what its going to come down to. If someone came up to Caitlin and I and said something about it, thats probably the first time that we had thought about it that entire day, week, month, year. If you concentrate on it, thats what youre going to define yourself by. Dont make it harder than it is; its a relationship like any other.

This seems to comport with previous work which suggests that once you control for perceived physical attractiveness men do not discriminate much in dating, while women continue to discriminate even if they assess out-group males to be physically attractive (e. g. , one would conclude from this that the white male aversion to dating black women has to do with assessments of physical appearance, as much of the discriminatory effect disappears once you control for assessed attractiveness). This makes some sense, men generally weight physical appearance higher than women in the calculus which determines their preferences.

2010-02-25 The Northerner - What are you looking at

A couple of months ago, while working on my family tree, I found out something cool: I have an African-American great-great-grandfather on my mother and rsquo;s side. This got me to thinking, what would it have been like to date someone of a different race at that time Interracial dating is something that is a little more acceptable now than it was then. I believe that interracial dating is perfectly fine. People are people, and skin color is nothing but a level of melanin. Even from a religious stand-point, the Old Testament mentions that the predominant Jewish leader, Moses, married an Ethiopian.

2010-02-21 I dont date outside my species.

The school yard cry: I dont date outside my species. is not as innocent as parents and teachers would have us believe. It is rooted in scientific experiments to prove the inferiority of women and minorities to whites. It undermines interracial dating and for sure interracial marriage. It is important that these little play school chants are understood for what they were meant to mean. Though the meaning has shifted, we must acknowledge that saying any human being is outside ones species is taking humankind back a whole century. And of course, the endeavor is to progress, not digress.
