Interracial Dating in college?

<p>Does it happen a lot?
like black girls and white guys... b/ci know in hs i never really had the opportunity but idk maybe college will be different</p>

<p>Depends on which races. I’ve seen a decent amount of Asian-white couples in my college, but I only ever see Black kids date other black kids. Don’t know about latinos.</p>

<p>I sure hope so! (I’m a black guy by the way)</p>

<p>I don’t see a lot of black girls dating a lot of white guys at either of the colleges I have experience with, but it does happen and it’s not really that big of a deal when it does. It seems more like black girls are reluctant to date anything other than black guys than other guys not wanting to date black girls, so if you’re the black girl in the situation I doubt you’ll have much of a problem as long as you surround yourself with accepting people. I see a lot of asian girl/white guy combos, and a lot of black guy/ white/asiain girl combos too. It’s really not that big of a deal.</p>

<p>I like in Almost Backwards America and we even have interracial dating. I have definitely tried to look for interracial couples on my college visits. I don’t do the “races self-segregate” thing. It’s possibly because I’m biracial, but I couldn’t go to a school where interracial dating seemed taboo. If it was just uncommon, that would be fine. It’s not everyone’s thing and I respect that - maybe one person doesn’t find someone from another race attractive.</p>

<p>Depends on the place. In general, it’s most common to see either white males or black guys in interracial relationships. I’d say it’s least common to see either black females or asian males in interracial relationships.</p>

<p>^^ Supposedly, black women and Asian men are the two groups with the highest single rate.</p>

<p>Can’t rule it out. I’m a brown Indian with a white girlfriend.</p>

<p>Bummer. I thought this topic died out a generation ago.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>It was only fifty years ago that interracial marriage was still illegal in eleven states.</p>

<p>^ Good point, but two generations for legality, and another for acceptance should be enough! :)</p>

<p>I mean i just wondered what are my chances of getting a white boy i love them!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>The gay population is still waiting for their moment.</p>

<p>First that Vitare guy and his obsession with finding a white woman, and now this?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I would say that your chances are about the same as any other woman. I’ve found that race doesn’t really matter anymore if you are pretty/handsome. People care way more about whether or not the person they are dating is good looking than what race they are. If you are pretty, which I will assume you are, you should have no problem.</p>

<p>You might think this advice is weird, but I’ve found it to be dead on in my own life. I’m an African-American female, and my last 3 boyfriends have been white. Race just never seemed to matter, in my experiences.</p>

<p>I’ve found that if you are reasonably attractive, have a good personality, and take care of yourself, in most parts of the country you will have a pretty good shot with guys of any race.</p>

<p>I hope so. I’m biracial, thus pretty much any dating I do has to be described as interracial.</p>

<p>

<p>Actually, when you factor out the foreign-born/raised Asians, Asian males have a higher IR marriage rate than BMs - 25% compared to 7% (some groups like Korean-Americans are as high as 30%).</p>

<p>One interesting anecdote is that UK BB player Rex Chapman felt that it was taboo for a WM to date a BF, while it was more acceptable for BM BB players to date WFs (this was back during the late '80s, so hopefully, things have changed for the better).</p>

<p>I’m black and my boyfriend’s white. I didn’t go on a manhunt for a white guy or anything; I never had racial preferences b/c cute is cute lol. Personality is key also. I’m seeing a lot more BF/WM relationships though.</p>

<p>There’s a lot of stigma surrounding BM/AF and BM/WF.</p>
