Well, for the Asian side, it's usually the parents who influence the prejudices of their children. Because there aren't many black/white/hispanic people in mainland China and surrounding countries, Asian immigrants to America consider those races 'foreign', like how China considered non-Chinese foreigners 'barbarian' back in the 17th century or so (sorry, I always failed with dates). It's no wonder that you see Asian people hang out with mostly Asians, African Americans with African Americans, Caucasian with Caucasians, etc. (at least, that's what you would see in my school) Although the few black/white/hispanic friends that I have are really awesome people --- I would depend on them as much as I would depend on any Asian friend.
I'm quite neutral about race, but I'll have to admit that I hang out with mostly Asians due to preference and because my Pre-AP/AP classes are full of them. My mom, on the other hand, is flat-out racist. If I ever invite friends over, she likes to ask me what ethnicity they are. When we drive through downtown, she always glares at the black hobos and comments about how dirty they are and other derogatory stuff. I would imagine that she would freak out if I ever had a boyfriend that wasn't Asian.
there was this white girl that always like "liked" me? iunno I always thought she was joking but she went out with another asian guy her senior year. lol
I find it's a really interesting topic actually, but it's just a stereotype about asian guys not getting caucasian girls. I know there's a previous elementary friend of mine that's at my school is currently going out with a japanese guy and they seem pretty happy. I've also seen coupled caucasians + africans, filipino + south africans (browns?) etc.
For example, I've only dated asians so far and I 'thought' I was only interested in asians. But there's a caucasian guy that sits next to me on the bus frequently and I find him attractive. I also tend to be dazed for a moment if I look into blue eyes of a fair-looking guy (I have a fetish for blue eyes)
Personally I don't mind dating guys with different ethnicities, it's just the matter of if we like each other, personalities match, etc.
And I find having mixed children are awesome (cauasian + asian especially), I wish to have them too in the future. I find mixed ethnicities have a special quality to them (not saying that fulls aren't special, they are too of course). But if the person I fall in love with isn't the ethnic I'm looking for, why does it matter? But as Gina said, many asian parents tend to freak out if their kids are dating someone different from their family's race, which is pretty unfortunate. My parents weren't against me dating a korean, but I actually wonder if they would object if I dated a caucasian.
Maybe our generation will be more open-minded and have more mixed children? :0
tl;dr? Edit: Ame's longer XD
Lol i remember watching these vids, always gives me a nice needed laugh
There were a couple of white girls that liked me and im asian lol
In my opinion race has nothing to do with relationships, its all about the individual and the environment they were raised in. Since i was raised in a diverse school and neighbourhood i never really looked at this "issue" the same way most people do. In fact im used to seeing it all around me
EDIT: maybe you should also post the KevJumba video on interacial babies too lol
Ughh i hate streotypes, always bites me in the ass. Being a black guy its ahrder to actually get another girlfriend of the another race only because of that badboy streotype the media and has put on us. once asked this asian girl out an she said sure but when i met her parents took me like 4 months to convince them that i wasnt a gun weilding gangsta that smokes weed and stuff... I also think that guys have it harder because of the parent factor. since ost paretns are immagrants in my country alot of them belive what they are told about a certain race,( Especially the asian ones, no offense) like in my case. so for me asking a girl out is hard becuase like 40% of the time its "My parent won't let me date (insert race here)"....
Kay i'm just gonna point out that the ugly asian chick thats dissing the asians, LOL she made me laugh so hard she's so damnnn uglyyy hhaha
Anyways you may see this because you're in a country that Caucasians dominate, like lets say if you drop 2 sticky jelly beans into a bag of rice the jelly bean will most likely attach itself to the rice instead of the other jelly bean.
i love this topic brb in like 3 hours, gotta write an exam/
Couldn't you have just showed up in three hours?

Actually, the culture issue is now flipped on it's head. After the first few waves of immigration, a few oriental guys actually did marry white girls, and the vast majority of them had good looking kids. Some of the parents now bother their kids to go marry a white person. They don't care as much about culture issues now, since the biased parents are now old enough to be willing to raise the grandkids, so the couple can go back to having sex quicker and produce more grandkids.
One thing that really seems odd to me is this: why are so many big black women now married to older oriental men? It was a funny pairing in Rumble In The Bronx, but seeing it so common now is just plain strange.

thats my two cents
Yes , I know what you mean.And that's the point race is getting in our way because of stereotypes why can't people face it's about the personality

Some people don't like ''different'' because they want to preserve their tradition and culture, but now we're exposed to different things. Perhaps we can be biologically attracted to certain races more than others because we physically but unconsciously feel that they are more compatible with our genes or is more fertile. The future might be very well a diverse one. Half-human, half-robots?
In the end, a relationship might just be a primitive need for love and reproduction. You can be attracted to one's qualities, one's appearance or one's interests.
Eros - a passionate physical and emotional love based on aesthetic enjoyment; stereotype of romantic love
Ludus – a love that is played as a game or sport; conquest Storge – an affectionate love that slowly develops from friendship, based on similarity
Pragma – love that is driven by the head, not the heart; undemonstrative
Mania – highly volatile love; obsession; fueled by low self-esteem Agape – selfless altruistic love; spiritual; motherly love
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.
For myself, I have only dated Chinese females due to the Asian community taking over the majority of the city. I grew up around Asian people throughout my grade schools and have a preference over them because I am so used to being around them. However, our generation doesn't necessarily care about the restrictions our parents give us and we choose to like or love someone since our preferences are not necessarily their background but what qualities they have that attract you.
Therefore my preference is Chinese females but I do wander off that road if the female attracts me by their intelligence, beauty, and/or their ability to express their ideas through communicating.

The ethnicity of the person I'm with has no precedence with me and it never has. I did have a preference for someone with a similar skin tone to my own, but many ethnic groups fall into that category. The fact that I'm half-Korean and half-White just jumbles that up even more, because I can be one or the other or both, depending on how people look at me.
Stereotypes. Stereotypes. Stereotypes. Gotta love how certain people let it govern how they act towards a specific ethnic group. Shows how shallow many human beings can be. There's more to a person than their appearance or background.
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

Your parents actually gave you a ranking of who your heart should decide to be with? o.o;
