I think it's fine. Why not? And I think they have just as much of a chance for their marriage to last as anyone else. Same with the children. Why would it matter what race they are? Erin-  |

I would have no problem with it, and many people I know wouldn't. However, when its outside the religion, some people I know get tense.  |

We all have the same color blood. Who cares what a person looks like. If you love someone then what difference should it make if they are black, white, yellow, green alien, etc. We are all the same, except Bin Laden, he is just a freak! |

Well my brother-n-law married a woman with a interracial child, and she said she would be very upset if her half black - half white son married a black woman....... and then i have a half white half black step brothers, who's mother said she doesn't want him to date any other color except black - go figure, so i was just wondering.  |

I don't see anything wrong in interracial dating and marriage. The marriage can be as long lasting as any marriage.  |

Most people, regardless of how much in love they are, haven't the strength it takes to stand up to the critisism put on them by society. It's always been there, it always will be. Why? because society sees it as diluting individual heritage and culture. The thought of losing a sacred tradition passed from one generation to the next is too much for some cultures to accept. This is how hatred and prejudice was born.  |

I agree with Thunderhead, its society. I can't say that I wouldn't date outside my race but I never have. My best friend is white and married to a black person. He treats her well and they have a beautiful baby (my godson) Blake. Her father was against the whole thing and disowned her. I think that he is still looking at it from the "old school" perspective. I think that there is nothing wrong with it though. People need to realize that we are all equal and have feelings no matter what. I just hope that the child doesn't have any problems being excepted or knowing what race he should be friends with. Skeptic Angel  |

The behavior and actions of the party in question of any race would be more important a factor than what race he or she is.  |

I would have no problem if i had a child that was dating or getting married to a different race. I would care more about how the person is. Not their skin colour.  |

I would have NO problem with something like that at all. I have dated two guys who were of another race than me, and although my father wasn't too happy about it, I think that has helped ME to see that there is NOTHING wrong with it at ALL...  |

Well I would date someone outside of my race and I have several times...I do know of people who do not approve of it though and I have one thing to say we are all one race essentially...the human race. I think it is ridiculous that we cannot get past outer appearences to the person inside. As for if their marriages stand more or less of a chance well I guess that they would have not more but different pressures placed on them by outer forces. That is just my opinion though everyone is entitled to their own opinion on it and regardless of anyone's opinion everyone should do what is right for themselves.  |

I probably won't be the first person to tell you that the world really isn't black and white and that there is gray.....as would I say....God created us all equal, and that LOVE sees colors that your eyes have never dreamed of seeing....you cannot pick and chose who you fall in love with.....LOVE happens....! The interracial couples that I know....are the STRONGEST people I know...because they deal....with the rest of the world.....and from day ONE....it was he and her.....AGAINST the rest of the world.....She is black, he is white, 3 wonderful kids, all 3 now in college....Love survives, for those who keep it living! No matter the race. |

My daughter has the right to love anybody that she wants and I'll stand by her. My only concern would be if she was marrying somebody that was hurting her. As for her having kids? Id be excited to be a gramma. My husband on the other hand said he wouldnt allow it. (some people)  |

As an American of African descent, I have 3 boys and # girls, and all have married out of their race. I've taught them that race shouldn't be a factor in choosing their spouses. All are married except one( my son Justin) and all are doing fine. I love all of their spouses and and all of my grand children. People have complimented us as a beautiful multiracial family and I'm very proud in how I raised them . I've also talked with my grand kids on problems that may arise because of their biracial individuality. I know that they will be alright and know how to respond to this whenever this aspect arise. I am truly proud of my family...  |

In my opinion, the only problem arises when they have children. This is not to say there is anything wrong with a bi-racial child. But I have sen cases where they become confused, not knowing who they should be with. The black people may see them as white, and the white people may see them as black. Thus many people of either race will not want them dating their daughters. Yes, I have known people who have gone through this, but maybe because we were growing up in the seventies, and hopefully things are different now. - ladyladonna  |
