Why Italy

This is no racist question.I´ve been dating a japaneese/italian guy 3yrs.I get told that i´m betraying my race

I am of African/Swedish descent and my boyfriend has been getting problems from some black guys coz he´s dating me. When someone black dates out of their race ( asians, white/mestizo Latinos & Whites) it´s seen as something bad by fellow blacks. In Latin America, blacks there have been mixing with other races for centuries. In african countries like Sao Tome and Cape Verde guys there are more mulatto to 1\4 black and no one there complains that they have been mixing with the portuguese & the french..Fact is most mulattos look much better, and have better hair and more even toned skin.. My question is, instead of especially male blacks being bitter and all these hating & betraying the race talks, creating hate blogs and talking rubbish etc... Why don´t they just leave the people who are more tolerant, open and liberal minded in peace? Besides, what happens in a relationship is a private matter between the woman and the man and has nothing to do with the rest of the world.

1. That's the mind set in the land of the free and the home of the brave, and appears only to be a problem in America. We don't have these problems in Australia. Many mixed relationships and no one cares, all quite normal.
2. Your right. I interacialy date, but there are some black guys I know who only date white girls. They are viewed as sell outs wich I agree with. Its like saying a black chick isnt good enough.....these fellows tend to be lame and/or wack too.
3. I don't understand this either. It's sounds kind of liberal/hippie-dippy, I know, but who cares about race? When you fall in love, you fall in love. Date who is good to you and loves you. Finally - and I hope you don't mind that my mind went there - African/Swedish/Japanese/Italian? Wow, you guys would have beautiful kids!
4. Um i am confused I thought Swedish was white? Why do you care what some black guy thinks unless ur related or have feelings for this black guy I wouldn't care he's just jealous because he didn't get you first. Good luck, Becca
5. I agreed with you, until you said mixed races are better looking than a non-mixed person with African ancestry. You're not to tolerant if you say anything like that, that's just as racist. And it all depends on what you think is beautiful. My brother is caramel colored, and thinks lighter women aren't pretty at all, he loves dark skinned women. So beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But, whether it's right or wrong, you understand why many blacks feel that way(from slavery to the Civil Rights movement), we have been betrayed by many other races, and it's kind of like when you "cross that line" you're just as much of a betrayer. Look I don't feel that way, I think there's nothing wrong with interracial couples. But, I do think you need to get off of your high horse and stop saying that lighter skin is more beautiful; because you're buying right into what tore this race apart: Skin.
