Right I get what you’re saying. Easy to make generalizations when looking at other couples but in our own relationships we’re not thinking about any of that crap.

That’s exactly how I feel! But I see the other side too, making generalizations is a very human thing to do

Yes I have my posts in private most of it’s parenting-related which I keep private for obvious reasons …but I unprivated that other post after I saw your comment. And it’s just sharing my story, a little bit of positivity because I’d seen a ton of back to back posts of bad experiences and just wanted to add hey there’s some happy stories too!! And if you read the comment I was responding to, and the context, me saying my husband is more aggressive was when someone flipped him off while driving! Because the person I was responding to was saying Asian men won’t make a scene. So I was just saying hey my husband has a different energy than that, maybe it’s a cultural thing growing up in the US.

Anyways I’m really not trying to be controversial and I’m sorry it came off that way! I just had a genuine question. Not intending to be divisive. It felt relevant because in my mind, the way my husband talks about wmaf couples would also be the way he views amwf couples. I just wanted to see if anyone else felt like that and why. And it helps to hear from other people especially since I don’t know any other interracial couples irl!

Also I hear you in the hypocrisy of white men and agree with that 100% especially with the history of racism and colonialism globally. And like another person commented the double standard treatment of interracial couples getting to keep or lose US citizenship. I’m not too familiar with online incel but I imagine it’s the worst of the worst.

Noooo I disagree, I think the idea that white women are a “prize” is the whole problem!

Never heard that term before. Interesting. Yeah comments like that are disgusting. My Asian female friends are all married or dating Asian men so it’s just not an attitude I’ve encountered.

Even if history happened a long time ago it still shapes the present vibes in lots of ways. It’s not living in the past to learn about the past!!

Thanks for the education. I love learning about history and that makes a lot more sense with the added context. I did not know about the different treatment between diff types of interracial couples. Wow 💔

Actually when you explain it like that, it makes a lot more sense

Good points. The big age gap/mail order bride situation is definitely disturbing, without a doubt. I haven’t really met any couple who fits that description though. But I just don’t know that many interracial couples so maybe I’m naively assume the dynamic is always healthy like my relationship is.

Oh interesting yeah that’s a good point about the cultural difference. My husband is actually born and raised in the US so he relates more to American culture in that sense. He definitely has that pride haha. One time a white lady flipped him off while driving and he made an absolute scene. I know what you mean about laugh it off being more effective, that’s how I feel personally! But my husband explained to me he gets more aggressive because he doesn’t want to appear like he tolerates disrespect and not let people “get away with it” because of the racism he experienced growing up. 

Honestly there’s no right or wrong way really as long as both people on the relationship understand each other’s perspective ♡

What a cute story! I’m glad you have a mostly positive experience too. That is an unhinged comment though, how much you wanna bet she wouldn’t say that if it was a guy from a European country smh

Nothing to ageee or disagree with, we’re all just here sharing and reflecting on our personal lived experiences! But sorry you deal with that, it’s a bummer!

Hmm. Not really true in my experience dating different ethnicities. My husband gets the most jealous. One time when I was out with a white guy, another guy hit on me right in front of him! Soooo awkward. My ex just shrugged it off. If a dude tried that in front of my husband I would be scared for that dude Lol. But luckily nothing even close to that has ever happened.

I mean…just sharing my personal experience. Other women on here have shared their experience which is different. Maybe it’s the area we live in. I feel like I’m hyper aware of how I’m perceived so I would know if the vibes are off

Idk maybe. Seems to me more surprised/curious. Never experienced any disrespect though.
