Interracial marriage

[curling]

Who here is interracially married? Any mixed kids also?

What, if any, problems or circumstances have you have to deal with because of it? (I am white but g/f is black, wanted to know what to expect if we decide to get married)

It is going to be harder for you especially in Texas. Your kids are going to get it worse than ya'll will. It would be great to think the world is color blind but we all know it isn't. I guess superdave if you love her love will overcome the obstacles in ya'lls path. God bless you both.

Catering the wedding would likely be a bitch keeping everyone happy.

Just relax bro. Isn't this the chick you cheated on and dumped a couple of times recently??? That is what you should be asking about first...Then, worry about the race shit

I'm from the East and my wife is the devil incarnate...does that count?

I am a white Italian, my wife is hispanic...It's all good.

My mom is actually mexican and my dad italian.

It was all cool for the most part. Some part that are hard for the kids is "where do you fit in" the mexican kids don't think you are mex and the white kids aren't quite like you... but eventually you figure it out.

It can be kind of rough when peeps make jokes and don't know you are what the butt of the joke is...

But mostly it is all good bro. I don't think it matters any more.

I was walking by the park the other day (in the city) and there were white kids, black kids, mexican, chinese, middle eastern all playing some game together out there... I was like, man, that would make a great picture. For most people, especially the younger generations, I think racism is mostly dead.

For every person that is an asshole, I am sure you will find at least 20 that don't care.

When my parents first started dating they were considered an interracial couple. Pop is Italian, Mamaduke is Irish [with some Polish thrown in there I believe].

So the elder close minded folk would consider me a mutt. Over time though it gets easier. Uncle married an Irish woman. Aunt married an Irish guy. A cousin is pretty serious with a Cambodian chick. My brother is engaged to a French Irish girl. We drew the line with Frenchie [jk]. I get involved with women from various backgrounds. Step-sister dated a black guy. If your family cares about you, then they'll accept it.

Granted at the family parties I have to watch my Full Metal Jacket references more so than before.
