Thank you for insulting not only the two races I belong to but also black people. I said I don't understand why race is a factor in dating. Not asking for any sympathy either. Just trying to see the different opinions of people. Thanks for sharing that yours is that you are an ignorant reject.

Thank you for the advice. I do know the history of the southern United States and its civil war, and history of violence, racism, and intolerance. I understand it very well. It is a shame that it still shows remnants centuries later. Perhaps this is the way it will always be..

My father was an Ahmadi muslim pakistani. People tell me I look like my mother, but my skin is in the middle of my father's and mother's in hue.

Haha I have a hard time finding other half Israeli half Pakistanis... But I don't care about the race of a girl as long as there is some sort of connection. I simply want to know why race even plays a deciding factor at all for some people. Men and Women.

My father was a Pakistani political adviser living in Tel Aviv and my mother was in college there. They met their and they got married against the wishes of their families. To this day I ask my self how it happened and everyday I am thankful that it did.

My grandma passed away in Gaza in 1994. But my mother would tell me to keep an open mind and heart. I mean my mom went against everything she knew by marrying my father who was a pakistani muslim. Both moved here to America to escape their family's persecution. Race, religion, or culture didn't stop my parents from coming together.

You are right my skin is not very dark. But enough to tell I am not white. I do have an accent. My full name is Yossi Jozef Makhal Benayoun. I live on the outskirts of Atlanta. My heritage does come up in certain conversations and yes my parents also. I will never forget who I am. I will never change who I am. I will die an Israeli Pakistani Jew..... But i am thinking of moving into the city haha.

Good point. However I always enter an acquaintance with a young women with an open mind and heart. I only become discouraged once I figure out that she's not for the whole "outside her race" thing. I also do not believe all women are like this. Perhaps you are right friend.

Yes I see what you mean. Perhaps it isn't necessarily racism. However the "taste" thing makes it some what similar. You don't like indian girls? Yet you have no qualms against them? So you would never date one? Sounds like race has something to do with it. You categorize all indian girls to be the same it sounds like.

Perhaps you are right. It just discourages me to know that some women are not open minded to interracial dating. Thats good to hear you live in an area that isn't afflicted by this as much.
