I think I understand part of your concern. I have dated interacially since my teens. I just happened to marry and divorce a black man and raised my daughter on my own. It did change the scope of my dating choices, especially those who were fortunate enough to be allowed to meet her. I allowed very few men to get that close. However, there was a conscious effort to be considerate when introducing people to her. I wanted to make sure that she had the ‘skills’ necessary to answer up to anyone else’s questions. We do live in a racially charged world. I knew I had done my job, when she was showing pictures of an outting to one of her friends and the friend exclaimed ‘He’s White!’ My daughter said ‘No, He’s Mike’ LOL. My point is I wanted her to know that a person is not just a color but a nice person regardless, however I did want her to be at an age where she could be confident and field any negativity that came her way. Her preference now? Any man who treats her with respect, dignity, honor and well–none of which are color based!
