Do you date outside your race? If so how often? Yep, whenever the occasion arises. How do you view racial preferences as whole? (in society) In terms of friends, I think a person should try to diversify their friends to understand cultural differences. In terms of relationships, I think understanding the cultural differences and learning to close the gap between the two is where we should start in opening up to different cultures. I don't think the discussion should be "Let's see pass race" but more "Let's understand what our culture stands for then see their differences and go from there". I think its far better to acknowledge than to dismiss (not to imply that anyone's doing that in this thread). I hope to see more opportunities open up in the future as cultural boundaries are defined and understood. Do you find yourself attracted or not attracted to certain race or races? I'm not sure but I'm open to any possibility based on where we are at in our lives. Can you describe why you might have these preferences/dislikes? I don't think I have any preference because I grew up with a lot of diversity. I think more people either notice people's personality or attractiveness despite their inherent racial traits. Do you think your mind has changed about any of this from the past or is subject to change in the future? I'm sure it will change depending on where society will head. I usually counter societal norms but it isn't consistent. I hope that if I do change my mind it is for the better and not the worse.
