And yet all the wonderfully happy interracial couples and families in the tv commercials live charmed and easy lives. Maybe those are not ads at all but agendas instead?

Those commercials leave out the times when the couple are yelling at each other - whether they are mixed race or not.

My wife and I are one of those rare couples that simply don’t do that. Well, she yelled at me pretty good a couple of times 21 years ago, but it was only when we had to deal with my ex and, truth be told, force of habit (I’d been married to my ex for 20 years) caused me to make less than wise decisions. I got better.

Do you honestly believe the only reason the couple had a disagreement is due to the amount of melanin in their skin? I guess this never happens to white couples, or black couples, or Asian couples, or Hispanic couples.

How f*cking ignorant can you possibly be? And to put your ignorance and bigotry on display in a public forum is just stupid. You should be ashamed of yourself, but I’m guessing shame isn’t part of your makeup.

It was kinda justified because she might have left him for another man. You can’t let another man have her.

That’s the most pathetic thing I’ve read on FR in a while

Are you that miserable a human being

About the same as “homogeneous” race couples....known a number of them and believe it or not, they’re just like “regular” couples - except for the cretins that think there’s something wrong with them because of their own racist tendencies...

Ain’t it great to be able to call others names and hurl prejoratives when what one wants desperately to believe is challenged – I haven’t heard burns like some of these since back in the seventh grade – actually a bit of objective research goes a long way in coming up with interesting information about this hot topic – here for instance is an excerpt from a 2016 internet article:

”In 2002 the Center for Disease Control published statistics about divorce rates that showed interracial marriages were more likely to end in divorce than same-ethnic marriages — 41 percent versus 31 percent. Interracial couples may grapple with different cultural assumptions and expectations so integrated into their lives that they’re not aware of them on top of all the usual marriage adjustments and stresses. Working through these differences can be challenging. Avoiding the risk factors associated with interracial divorce can help create a successful marriage. Within an existing marriage, interracial couples can overcome differences inherent to their backgrounds, cultures and races.”

For those interested in facts and not just name-calling, here’s a link to the article

(I tried to post a picture of OJ Simpson and his wife as another example of a happily married interracial couple – back in the day at least – but can’t get the link to work – sorry)……..
