DING! DING! DING! DING! She hit the nail on the head!
Honeychile, do you know that I think you are awesome?
I really want to see the movie "Something New". I will probably buy it when it comes out on DVD and watch it with Mr. 1228.
My bio sister and I have had this conversation before. She says she could never date anyone outside her race. Does that make her (or anyone else who has said this) a racist? Hardly. Does it make them close minded? Good question
I have NO issues about dating or marrying outside my race. Been there, done that, have the bling to prove it. Mr. 1228 was NOT the first time I have dated outside my race. First time I dated/married outside my nationality (those damned Canadians!)
If someone had a problem with it, it was
THEIR problem, not mine.
Back to the question:
If someone says that they don't want to date outside of their race, does it make them close minded? Not racist, but close minded for not expanding horizons...
