once again proving that the south is a degenerate cesspool of cretinous apes that are holding the rest of the country back, as if trying to get creationism taught in schools wasn't all the evidence we ever needed.
I knew someone once who legitamately didn't believe in black-white marriages, because he thought the kids looked weird. I'm surprised there are that many people against it.

I thought that was Kansas?

But they just look like blacks but with a lighter skin tone.

sometimes I wonder if people answer stuff like this by putting themselves into the question
like, I doubt that I would personally marry a black woman (not that it's an impossibility, just unlikely), but I definitely see nothing wrong with others doing it

XFD I was waiting for someone to come in and display their ignorance.

oh, I am happy that the south is beginning to catch up and is almost like a civilized region now, but they're still carrying archaic racial grudges 7% more frequently than the next worst region.
No doubt that the South still carries racial prejudices. Still, if you think they're the only region with problems, then your radical leftism is blinding you.

I never said other regions were perfect, just that the south is by far the worst in america on social issues.
Like, I can at least see some faith-based arguments against gay marriage, even if they fly in the face of secular logic, but do religions somewhere forbid interracial marriage as well?

This is the thing. There literally is no argument in any way against it except "I don't like that race"
It's astounding that there are around 45 MILLION Americans who are against this... wtf.

My Japanese alter-ego. Hey all this is Bartz btw.
I'd just like to note, having recently moved from San Francisco to Georgia, that race relations seem a lot better in Atlanta than they do in San Francisco.

Yeah, I've found that race relations are better in areas where there is actual integration than they are even in highly liberal white communities where people are tolerant IN THEORY, but will still clutch their purse a little tighter if they pass a black man on the street.

I'd expect any major city in the south like atlanta to be on par with other major cities, you get more of the "good god fearing christian white men build a fence to keep them damn mexicans out!" thing in more rural areas
From: JaKyL25 | #005 I would be interested to know if anyone approved of interracial marriage between certain ethnicities but not between others.
I'm sure there are plenty. I also don't doubt that even among the same two races, approval levels differ depending which is the man and which is the woman.
Liquid Wind posted... there's that too, I think black man/white woman is more accepted than the inverse
I would completely disagree. It's probably more common than white man/black woman, but to the sort of people that disapprove of interracial marriage, a black man marrying a white woman represents a black person being dominant over a white person, since these are the same sort of people that believe the woman's role is to be subservient.

maybe in a symbolic sense but in reality women possess all of the leverage in a modern american marriage, but you're right that the same people that would disapprove of interracial marriage are also those that wouldn't acknowledge this fact.
maybe just because I live in a **** hole and there are racists all around me anyway but it seems like I hear hate directed at pretty much every non-white race tbh, I think middle easterners get the worst of it here actually
Don't you just hate old people? Some of the most backwards, out-of-touch people you'll ever find. Why don't they die faster so we can have nice things?

actually for precisely this reason I'm pretty apathetic. they're ass backwards and many are completely out of their minds, but part of me is just like "meh, they'll die soon anyway, whatever". it's the young people that have that kind of senile insanity(smartmuffin, sephg etc) that concern me
