My parents are pretty accepting of anyone and definitely welcoming of my black boyfriend and others in the past. The problem more lies with their parents, especially the mothers, they seem to have something against the IR thing. I'm not saying this for all black women just the ones I've encountered. It's sad because my family couldn't be better it's just the other side and I've yet to meet my current boyfriends parents but he's told me that his doesn't even like white people so I'm scared hah.
Lol I'm not planning on having kids anytime soon so that's not gonna work :lol: It's not that serious yet so it's not like I have to meet the parents
My parents would never speak to me or acknowledge my existence again if I dated or married a black man. Not currently with anyone but... the day may come and I feel like it's their problem, not mine, to deal with.
It's all good My parents are all good with it. My man's parents (Botswanan) are all fine too. They see he is happy. His Mama loves ringing me for a chat. My brother's girlfriend was from Japan originally, my man is African, my other brother has a white girl, my sister married a Latino! My Mum and Dad joke about a little rainbow family of grandkids, I guess others might view it as unusual though. Their perspective always was that how they survived when they came to Australia was through the help of those that just accepted them, and they could never impose the narrow minded views that made their lives hard sometimes on anyone else.
My parents are not bothered at all what race I date...In my family dating someone from a different religion would probably cause the most friction... Wouldnt get disowned, but my mum would probably have a heart attack..
