sometimes the stereotypes aren't between the couple but from the people around them towards the couple
like it's not right for them to be together or something
Yeah, that would be society's opinions of the couple get to their heads and then break up due to the stress of being together, even if everything was going just fine for the two.
However, they shouldn't give up if their relationship was really genuine.

The only reason my mom would prefer our race is because she can communicate with her. Other than that, she doesn't care who I date so I guess she isn't uptight about it.
Stereotypes are still quite strong where I live x__x; Nevertheless my partner has a skin color far from my own and we both have to communicate in a different language than our native one to make ourselves understandable to each other at the moment. I think that is about the only negative point I could name about dating someone of a totally different culture. It's easy to overcome though, teach each other your own native languages :3 It might even be fun~! As for backgrounds we are quite different as well but I like that, if we were both the same where would the fun be in that?
If you are going to pass up on someone just because they are not the same 'race' as you then you might be passing up on someone that would have made your life much richer than it is right now ~ It's about time someone grabs all those stereotypes and throws them out the window. The "uptight" - "afraid of the unknown" - "stereotypical" generation is over! Let there be a fresh wind~!
From what I've seen and experienced most people enjoy people who give a fight. Though depending on how you're raised or whatever then it comes down to race. But if you can just say "Ha-Ha' to your parents and not care then honestly go for it. You'll be happier.

wee fun topic. I have alot of experience with this both through my parents, and my ex-fiance.
I'm mixed. My dad's black & my mom's white as flour. We're from WV. Needless to say I was related to every kid with curly hair & dark skin in the entire county in some way or another. I always asked my mom about how they met & what problems they faced. My grandmother's first question, when finding my mom was dating a black man, was apparently ".. Just how black *is* he?" Kudos grandma for not passing out considering the generation she came from. My family has never been as close to my younger sister & I as they are to the other family members. My dad's side of the family never even speaks to me.
Anyways, other than my curly hair I look like I'm some sort of white. I mean I'm seriously pale! My mom's irish & dutch definitly overtook my dad's african & native american bloodlines. Though i definitely look exotic.
Where does this come in? Usually I'm the "white girl".
My ex-fiance is Chinese. His family had some interesting reactions to me. His parents, who are from hong kong, couldn't give a crap what colour I was. They've been warm & friendly the entire time. His brother, however, refuses to speak to me in more than passing. His uncle, who considers all Gwailo to be the devil, talks to me more than his own brother does. My ex & I are still roommates so people often mistake us for a couple. Whenever we're in his hometown we get a LOT of stares from people that range from curiosity (we've even got a few what a cute couple remarks from old ladies) to downright Evil Eye. The funny thing is that my ex is very "Western" since he was raised in Canada. People down here are always surprised when we go out to dinner & he speaks perfect english without an accent. We both get a kick out of it. His previous girlfriend was also a "white" girl who's dating another Chinese man. Obviously for some, the stereotypes don't matter one bit :P Though I do have to say, I tend to like Asian men in general because they are *usually* more appreciative and polite--but this has to do with their upbringing more than even their culture.

I'm asian>>o.O..people only think that cuz they see things and think of things when they r growing or meeting new people, so they may just follow the influence? I personally dont care~:3..but that dating white girls seems to be more normal for me~
im half asian and half mexican.
my parents could care less what color girl i go out with haha,and i've gone out with all different "colors"
black,brown,yellow,white,whatever.
that shit doesnt matter to me,its stupid.
and i look filipino,i guess,which are basically mexican lookin asians anyway,even though im not
i'm half black too... and no offense but i don't like white girls. never dated one... never really liked one. sorry.
love the black girls though. as far as asian guys not getting with white girls... i honestly don't care because i don't like white girls. but when i see asian guy with black girl i'm like "yeee get em!"
as far as my family goes. lol my parents are like "anyone but a white person"... but if i dated a white person i'm sure my mom would be the only one to say something but they wouldn't be mean to her.
Why such a strong dislike for white girls x_x? Im not a white girl but if I were, I'd like to know what you think is wrong with us lol ._. I just think its better to judge someone on their individual merits than their skin color. You might think white girls in general suck, but someday you might meet a really nice person who.. just happens to be a white girl :/
lol i wouldn't NOT date someone just cos they're white. in general i'm attracted to dark skin... so that's why on first glance I'm not attracted to white girls. but if i met a white girl i got along with really well and wanna date then that's cool too.
i guess it's like a person who isn't attracted to black girls because they like light fair skin. but they might meet a black girl that's amazing! and then date her.
my dad always said u can't choose who u fall in love with. and i think he's right
I'm such a gigantic mix of races that it doesn't really make a difference what my preference is. I'm part Filipino, Scottish, Native American and Spanish (as in spain). God knows what else is in there but seeing as I'm from Texas there's probably a ton of German and Irish tossed in too.
As for my preference, I don't really have one. In general though, I've never really found myself attracted to black or latino guys. I do tend to like Asian guys (except for Filipino guys, but that's a cultural thing more than anything), but I also find a lot of Native americans to be quite striking.
I guess it's all about preference. I prefer Asians since I am one myself, but Caucasians can interest me too. I'm more attracted to people with light skin, but doesn't mean I can't be friends/date with a darker skin.
I also agree with asian parents being able to communicate with the person I'm dating. I believe my mom's quite open minded, she didn't mind when I dated a korean, but she told me "It would be great if I could communicate with him, you know my english sucks." It's just weird if I had to translate back and forth between their conversations.
And I forgot to comment on the 3rd video on the OP, I didn't watch it until after my first post. It's hilarious. XD
I love watching the 2nd video, LOL. That Caucasian dude commenting his "hentai" addiction is hilarious, haha. I'm Asian myself, but I never knew that height mattered that much, lol.
i'm half black too... and no offense but i don't like white girls. never dated one... never really liked one. sorry.
love the black girls though. as far as asian guys not getting with white girls... i honestly don't care because i don't like white girls. but when i see asian guy with black girl i'm like "yeee get em!"
as far as my family goes. lol my parents are like "anyone but a white person"... but if i dated a white person i'm sure my mom would be the only one to say something but they wouldn't be mean to her.
Never saw that before. Though, where I live, there's not many Asians, either.
And wtf @ your comment to the couples xD Rofl.
At least they'd be respectful to her, that's good. Hopefully (maybe) they'd grow okay with it =)

I understand where this is going and I can say that it's completely wrong, love is like glass and it's fragile, but stronger bonds turn it into stone. Love blossoms everywhere, there's no stopping it and can't be re-written. It's just the flow of today's modern world.
My parents grew up in war (WW2 and Vietnam), they understand that one race can't live without the other, therefore we are all one race. Believing is achieve and hatred brings death. If you don't believe this, then your better off supporting global warming.
