Out here, everything hurts.

...a few white women who clearly fetishized my color or otherwise made a big deal about "dating my first BLACK guy!"...

Stop taking all the white women! :argh:

All kidding aside, I am white as the driven snow, German ancestry (master race my rear end, the loving sun tries to kill us if we get a glimpse of it for more than a couple minutes.. It burns us precious..) but the family has been in the US since I don't know when, at least 4 generations.

I dated a lovely black woman for a few years. She was from Georgia, and I always found it fascinating to hear her stories of racism there. We met and dated in the Phoenix, AZ area, and I never once had someone make a comment or racial slur of any kind during that time, nor did I experience any of the odd "they aren't together" sort of things. She was smoking hot, so maybe that had something to do with it?

Reading this thread has been pretty interesting, because with only my little microcosm experience to go by, I wouldn't think that interracial relationships were any sort of an issue at all. Sadly, I appear to be quite wrong.
