(20,277 posts)I have lived in mixed race and ethnicity neighborhoods pretty much my entire life.
I have had a black woman promoted to be my boss. I have also had a younger white woman promoted to be my boss. Neither bothered me. Both were well qualified.
I have dated 2 black men. One of them was a friend first. We went out for a bit, then decided that being friends was the better way to go for us. The other......my, my, my!
I wouldn't care if either of my sons married a black woman.
