Hi i am a 14 year old half black half white male who has no problem with the dating situation. With me there is no restriction, to which race i am supposed to be with, i have dated both black and white girls, and too me there is no problem of me bi-racial, i am considered either white on one hand , or black in the other. i have also taken a much more higher level i have also dated hispanics, and oreintals too, and they all seem not to mind that i am milano. And i have also not one single preference, to either of the races i have dated either. All though i do have a liking to black women but thas my busisness. But a wierd thing is i have never dated my own kind, and thats because i live in a predominatly white town, with barely any minority population. The only way i have dated other races is because of a program my black father assists with that is mostly populated with blacks, and hispanics, and on several trips to chinatown i have been able to date orientals. also because of the sparse population of minoritys in my comunity,there is only 5 other bi-racial people in my school:all male, so in short i have not been able to date any of my own kind. And I have had a rough time without any other milano,or oreo women in my life, that i could experiance.

I have basically one comment and one comment only. I fail to see why it matters what color the person we choose to date or fall in love with is. I date people for their personalities and their treatment of me. If he is green or purple - so be it, just as long as I'm in a stable relationship where we treat each other with respect.
