How do ya'll feel about/deal with prejudice?

Relating to negative experience(whether it's prejudice,loss of a child,abuse in any form or anything else) is something that in my opinion one can only do to a certain degree,but never 100%.
Sure,the logic may be understood and a person may have a vague idea of the emotions a person may feel in a situation but you don't 100% know unless you have walked in the exact same shoes yourself-and even then how people going through the exact same situation may feel or deal with the situation in different ways.
Of course it's nice to meet people who have some understanding but expecting them to be able to read your most inner thoughts and relate may be a bit too much expected

 

It depends on the woman. If she has dated Interracially before and mature to be acknowledgeable about the resistance to Interracial dating with a BM, that is good. If she isn't, she has a responsibility to be knowledgeable about Racism and deal with her own prejudices.

 

I totally agree with you on this one!!!

 

How do you deal with prejudice towards your inter-racial relationship?

???

 

I've never had to deal with it honestly.

 

What if they make slick comments towards you? Are her parents or inlaws or siblings open?

 

The only people who give me trouble are my parents. And I've just told them if they want a relationship with me, they need to accept my choice. *shrugs*

I've never dealt with it from outsiders.

 

I've honestly never had anything slick said to me when dating IR. When I was married, her parents were cool as shit. Her brothers were cool too.

 

lucky you. I caught the blues from my wife's parents!!! Correction, just her dad. Now, he actually loves me as his actual "son".

 

I think their issue was me leaving and divorcing her, lol

 

What type of prejudice? Verbal abuse, threats against you or your partners well being, not feeling comfortable because of stares/ whispers?

 

Same and I don't have a relationship with them

 

There comes a time where you have to cut some people lose…

 

I haven't experienced it in my adult life from anyone I am personally associated with. Nearly all of my friends are in interracial/international/inter-ethnic relationships of both gender combinations. I have seen it from strangers, but I don't pay them any attention.

 

^^^^i see you live in the Deep South, which is where I used to live back in the '90s (West palm beach). To my surprise, most of my racial incidents that involved slurs thrown at me and my significant other have happened up north (Milwaukee, Buffalo, Minneapolis, Cleveland, Boston).

 

I know what you mean. The rust belt industrial cities are just as racist as the Deep South, just with union and ethnic types as opposed to rednecks.

 

^^yep, u nailed it..

 

Almost all the prejudice I've dealt with came from black women and from some other non blonde women. Everyone talks about how white men are so strongly opposed to white women having relationships with black men but almost no white men have ever gave me problems about me having relationships with black men. In fact I've had more non blonde white women be hostile towards me than white men. As for how I deal with it I just laugh at them. I take it as a compliment that they are so jealous of me.

 

...

I am from the Uk and grew up in London.
We don't have the same race based issues that you have in the US so to be honest nobody ever commented on me dating white chicks.
I don't exclusively date white women in any case.

Here is a slightly old Uk video.

It's probably even higher now.
