What are your opinions on interracial relationships?

My 18 year old sister may like this black gentleman my father is old school and doesn't think its right because society wont accept it i would like your views and facts or something to help my argument i think its fine. He is a good man but just grew up in a generation closed minded.What are your opinions on interracial relationships?
It should be noted society is more complex than you think, for it鈥檚 divided into many different parts. It isn鈥檛 鈥榮ociety鈥?that doesn鈥檛 believe dating interracial is 鈥榬ight,鈥?it鈥檚 the people around you. If people in your area believe interracial dating is wrong, they don鈥檛 speak for an entire society, but only themselves. In my area, no one would truly care if I had a boyfriend of another race, and if they did, it鈥檚 none of their business. As for interracial dating, it鈥檚 fine because we鈥檙e all human and if we love the person, we shouldn鈥檛 have a problem being with him or her. However, if people have personal problems, such as believing others would be against them for dating someone of a different race, they should do what鈥檚 better for them. If you ask me, I wouldn鈥檛 care.What are your opinions on interracial relationships?
sometimes it's hard to convince older people that interracial dating is ok.They are still set in the time where being with a black man or woman,or being gay was taboo.As long as he treats your sister right,you should explain the good points of this guy to your father.My personal opinion is this,love does not see any color,we are all God's children and a person should be judged on how they treat others and what they do in their life to make the world a better place.Not what skin color they are.I think interracial dating is fine,I don't see someone as black,white,red blue whatever,I see them as a human being.,maybe your father will come around after he gets to know this guy and see he is a good guy? good luck.
I don't think another person's relationship, inter-racial, homosexual, whatever, is any of my business as long as both parties are able to legally consent.





*shrug*





Society is more open minded than your father thinks, btw. The younger generations are, at least.
Yeah I know what you mean. My mom said she would rather me be gay than in an interracial relationship. I was like...';WHAT??'; And she's pretty open to new cultures and ideas. It's strange. A lot of people just dont think you should put your future kids through being a mixed race child in a less than open-minded society.





Personally,if she thinks she could love him, go for it. You dont have to tell your father unless they become really serious. And if she's really in love, then she shouldn't have a problem telling your father...
How old is he, 60?!? That's some old school think for real. Nothing can change these people's minds but time. Don't waste your time. What society does he live in? You said his generation is ';close minded';. If he's like that; nothing anyone can say or do will ever sway him. Agree to disagree.
l guess where your father is concerned,then old habits die hard.


But love has no boundaries....and if you sister loves someone from another race....then this is her life,her love for someone.


l truly believe you cannot tell someone...that they can't love a person...because of race or culture.
Tell him that if he doesn't want to lose his daughter he will at least give the guy a chance because she is going to date him no matter what and It will be better for him to approve because at least he will know where she is and with whom.
it's true...interracial marriages are more of a threat than gay marriages...both are pretty bad
To be honest, I don't mind interracial relationships.
Get him to watch the 1967 movie ';Guess Who's Coming for Dinner';.





I bet that would change his mind.
They exist.





Frankly I do not care. Long as they treat each other right.
true society doesn't think this should happen but it's all about what's in the heart.
