Do you have siblings that also date IR?

    It seems like a lot of times, when someone is interested in dating IR, and they have siblings who are relatively close in age, the siblings also gain an interest in it.

    I recently found out that my younger brother is dating a ww. So that means my younger brother, older brother, myself, and my sister are all either dating, or married to a white partner. My mom is also attracted to some white men. Oh, and what makes it all even more interesting is the fact that we weren't raised in an all-white neighborhood. We were raised in the worst parts of the ghetto, which is worth mentioning because some people believe that you only date the people that are in closest proximity to you. So despite all the members of my family being raised in close proximity with other black individuals (not that all black individuals are located in the ghetto by the way), somehow we've all developed an affinity for white parters anyway. Does anyone else have a family like this?:)

    I have a close cousin who's girlfriend was a latina..

    they were together for 3 or 4 years..

    my aunt used to bring white guys over to family gatherings (one of them used to help her with math courses in college too :) )

    they aren't exactly siblings, but i grew up very close to them, so I would not be the first one to go IR at all..

    also..one of my uncles, while stationed in Germany in the USAF, had a German girlfriend

    My brother dated IR before I was dating, tho now he's married monoracially. My Dad married IR several years after I started dating my SO.

    Happiness is contagious!:)

    I am not related to, nor am I friends with anyone that dates IR of any description.

    My brother is totally adverse to dating a BW, cause I tried to hook him up and he nearly killed me. His loss.

    I'm an only child, so no.
    My mam's dated black guys, but nobody else really. My blood relatives are all in Russia and they're pretty funny towards IR relationships and my English relatives are just scummy chavs.
    So yeah. I'm the only one even if you include cousins, uncles, aunts, whatever.

    I have a cousin outside Columbus, Ohio, who is dating a black guy who also fathered her two children. She's the only other person in my family aside myself that I know of who has dated non-white people. We were never really close or anything, we didn't grow up with each other...really we only even met a handful of times. She's still a sweet girl, though, and her babies are adorable.

    In my family it's far from accepted to date outside your race. I caught hell for it when my family found out. A few people constantly complained about how eventually I'd be bringing home "black babies" and other unsavory titles for my future children.

    Guess they were right :D


    My baby brother (15) said he once talked to twin black girls that he thought were really hot and wanted to have a threesome with him. I think he's more like me in that he's open to different people, but where he lives now the population is only white so he doesn't really have any options. I'm terrified of when he moves out here with me after graduation...he's gonna knock up one girl of every race, I just know it. >.< He's a playa.

    ..In Columbus, IR is not uncommon at all. Her family shouldn't be shocked, if they are. C-Bus is a pretty progressive place for minorities and mixed families...it's been ranked several times as the best city for AA's, which should be a collateral benefit for mixed familes.

    DH, maybe you and your brother need to move to C-Bus:cool:

    pfft. Houston is pretty open. Why move to Columbus when I love my H-town? :D

    My baby brother is pretty much moving in with me where ever I'm living when he graduates, unless things change between now and then. He may even just head my way when he's 18 and finish out high school with me, though I'm concerned about that because his education is subpar compared to the education he could get pretty much anywhere else, so he'd be really behind and might not even graduate. We'll just have to see how ti goes when it happens.

    My cousin's immediate family was still shocked, though, Intrigue. But that's because they came from the same area that I'm from. My cousin has been kinda blacklisted with my family back home, though I believe her immediate family, at least, have come to accept her boyfriend and children. I think I might be the one to do that with my family back home. They never knew her that well, and from what I can tell they've never met her children o boyfriend yet, so they're tiny closed minds haven't been expanded yet.

    My family is either gonna love my baby, or never see her! Simple as that. :D

    :smt025...I forgot you were from Houston. Sometimes it amazes me that there is still so much bias in big cosmopolitan cities like Houston...then reality slaps me again (Lipstik, there goes that reality-slap).

    It's unfortunate your cousin has experienced those circumstances, however, we have to remember that we cannot let others decide how we live our lives simply to earn there approval....that's balderdash!

    Baby, I'm not from Houston, I just live here. There isn't nearly as much bias here. I really like it here, because so far the only shit I've caught for dating black guys has come from home. Everyone around here just doesn't seem to care, except one aunt of my boyfriend, but she's just nuts and racist herself.

    I'm from an all white town in Southern West Virginia. That's where all the racism is. It's so bad that I am actually concerned for when I do decide to bring my baby home to visit my parents once she's born. And I'd certainly never raise a biracial child there. Ever. Not an option. My kid would have to deal with way too much bullshit.

    :smt085...I've never heard good things about WV. Many, many Appalachians migrated into OH and Western PA for the rubber and Iron industry in the early 20th century. They brought they're hypocritical prejudices with them. However, that's primarily outside the urban centers, that shit don't fly in the cities.
