I'm a generation or two older than many here, in all likelyhood.
My parents were racist....they told me if I ever married a black man, they would disown me.
Of course, for a rebellious 70's S.Calif teenager...that only served to piss me off and vow to date any black guy I could attract.
Later on though, I realized two things.
1. I didn't find them particularly attractive and...
2. I grew up in a town that probably didn't have more than 2 black families in it. And they didn't have sons my age, apparently.
Oddly enough, my father's sister married a mexican man. He was dark skinned, and my family had no problems with him.
My son married a mexican woman, and they have a daughter. A beautiful daughter.
Safe to say, I think people are people. Hook up with who you want.
A word to the wise though....do take into consideration the sometimes vast differences in the cultures. They can be more difficult than you initially realize.
My son and daughter-in-law are divorced.
