People gawking at you when dating interracially

[oil&gas]

I don’t know if it is white people at this point. Anecdotally, I have a few white friends (guys and girls) that married interracially without issue. It was non-Westernized minorities that seemed to have the issue (taking our women/men).

This is probably true to some degree with non-white minorities.

Many minority parents were wary of the influence of high schol sex
ed curriculum led by Kathleen Wynne when it was first introduced on
their kids. They did not necessarily oppose their kids learning about
gay sex on religious ground. A typical non-religious Asian father would
worry about his teen daughter experimenting newly acquired knowledge
of oral and anal sex with white boys. He wouldn't likely have as much
problem with his son getting to bang a white gal though.

I'm white (blond) and have been married to a brown woman for many years and have not experienced any such problems... go figure.

I think it happens with other races too.
And some within those minority groups may also balk at it because they consider whites to be generally racist.
They'd use other reasons like culture.
In short mind your business.
Anything else is racist to some degree. Lol.

Tell Grandma she is off her rocker. I work with a few ( women ) and hell NO I wouldn't touch them, even if you paid me.

To OP @neutrino in which city did this happen?

Judgement and racism will always be with us, and has been forever with us.

It must have been a shitty date if you were looking at everyone around you the whole time. I wouldn't have noticed anything.

Here in Toronto, where this probably happens a lot.

Latest stats show increasing trend in Interacial marriages and approval for mixed couple marriage
Older generations and those living in homogeneous societies still think and feel like the OP

Personally I don't pay others any mind when I've been in interracial relationships. If they gwak okay cool you got your two cents in kindly move along.

I do know that within large cities it's common for interracial relationships which thank God for that

Besides if someone has a problem with me being in a interracial relationship tbh they got some internalized issues within themselves.

I'm Italian and my wife is Jamaican, we never had this issue, or maybe never cared enough to notice. You'll be fine.
