Interracial marriages - why the discrepancy between attitudes and actions?

Tue, 06 May 2008 03:03:02 GMT

In some not so very ancient polls on interracial dating, findings show that 83% of Americans are okay with it. Its like moss people are gradually moving towards a race-less society if you wish to call it that.

Is this a positive sign? Yes? No? Maybe?

Well these poll results are quite surprising. Ok at least that’s what I thought. Lets analyze this:

The number of interracial unions in the US is around the 7% mark. My dear readers, who will so kind to explain the disparity between the high approval rate and relatively low numbers of interracial couples who end up tying the knot?

So the trend is growing… but we must admit one painful truth… it’s been slow to develop. Considering the prejudice that was like the fashion trend in the earlier part of the 20th century this is hardly surprising.

Well, this discrepancy goes to show the talking the laws off the books, hasn’t changed some of our attitudes. The demographic surveys make interesting reading and produce some unusual results. Stuff like Asian American females are 2.5 times more likely to marry a white American than an Asian American male… or African American males are 2.5 times more likely to be married to a white female, than African American females to a white male could be the reason for such a discrepancy.

Does this mean that having a positive attitude towards interracial dating and actually dating interracially are not related whatsoever? Well I always thought attitude builds actions. Are those that welcome the idea of interracial marriages scared of being regarded as sell “selling out the race” when they actually intermarry?

Well another reason for this discrepancy may be that resistance to interracial marriage tends to be hidden. When people are responding to surveys most respondents probably just want to appear progressive in their views. They don’t want to be the ones pulling American’s down. And if this is the case, then their answers may not be entirely representative of their true feelings.

Going by this assumption, will we ever get to the society in which race will cease to matter as much as it has in the past? Or are we just comfortable with dragging our feet hope to get there eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-ventually?

Black men and the female body

Bee — Sun, 26 Feb 2006 02:15:30 GMT

In my experience, and yes this is a generalization, Black men seem to appreciate a womyn's body SOOO much more then white men.

Any thoughts?

Taking the BIG CYBERSPACE step

opeyemi — Fri, 26 Oct 2007 05:37:52 GMT

Well, I liked the sound of this tribe, "interracial hookups", so I joined.

It's pretty quiet, though.

But I did get turned on to a website out of Seattle for online interrracial dating. You know, all that advertising stuff that appears at the sidebars, and that I usually ignore???

Seeing that Washington state was one of the first states to legalize interracial marriage, I took it as a sign. This dating website sorts by state, so I can look for locals, here in Massachusetts.

So I took the dive (the FREE one , that is--smiles available but I stay mute, unless someone e-mails to me).. I registered and checked it out. LOTS of Black men. Few Black women.

Sigh.

I hope this isn't really a site for Blackmenandwhitewomen in disguise. I hope that this online dating site is truly an interracial one that goes all ways and includes many ethnic groups...

I am hopeful and optimistic that I get a few nibbles for some interesting conversations and maybe more...

Wish me luck!

New here

elainanic — Tue, 04 Apr 2006 15:21:26 GMT

Hi my name is Elaina but I also go by Nikki (my middle name being Nicole) and I am new here. I'm 27 and will be 28 in Sept. I'm a sahm to my soonto be 10yr old son. I've been dating white males all my life (my son is also a product of this) sparsely dating black males when I was younger. I'm attracted to white males and no one can make me change that. I'm still in search of the love who will love me for a lifetime and I am glad to find a tribe that recognize that we like dating outside our race. If you'd like to get to know me add me and I'll surely add you back.
