Not to start an argument, because we have had the discussion previously on GC (and it was a really great one- not nasty, everyone learned something) but it's very different to be a race that never dates out as opposed to someone whonever dates their own race.

The first is a matter of convenience and sometimes prejudice that doesn't really say much about how you see yourself. The second often, not always, is an indicator of how the person feels about their own racial identity. It generally (not always- I work around almost all white people so have been dating "out" for a while because that's who I meet) requires that one go out of their way to avoid members of their own race of the opposite sex.
