You may like to nuance words, i saw the reality.
I've dated women from pretty much every race or racial mix. I enjoyed the sex most of the time - the times it wasn't so good was just bad luck/chemistry.
It seems (from Europe) that America still has a long long way to go on race issues, but its a big improvement from 40/50 years ago when the world was appalled by your treatment of minorities.
Hopefully, as there are more and more interracial relationships, the differences will fade away.

As an American, I hate that I would be judged on the actions of a few politicians and uneducated riffraff.Not gonna get into which country has the most race issues. However, as a Brit, I would hate to think I'm judged on the actions of a small number of football hooligans who in no way represent me or anyone I know.
I'm sorry but that is pure bullshit. Europe has way bigger race issues than america.
I remember reading a lot of articles about how black football players are heavily discriminated in countries like spain, italy, and germany. The crowd would make monkey chants and throw banana peels any time a black football player had the ball in his possession. That would never ever happen at a sporting event I'm america.
Discrimination also happens with a lot of african and caribbean immigrants throughout europe. I got family in england, belgium, and germany and some of their experiences with the law as well as folks around them aint so far off from stuff I've heard here in america.
I'm by no means denying america doesn't have a problem pertaining to race and discrimination but let's not pretend europe is all sunshine and rainbows and holding hands in harmony while singing michael jacksons "heal the world". Pfffft
I read a ton of articles like that too i believe Thierry Henry (worlds top player) was called a monkey by his own coach when he played for a club in Spain
Actually, Henry (a Frenchman) was at the time of the incident playing for a UK team, Arsenal, and doing a training session with the Spanish national team. The then coach of the Spanish national team, Luis Aragonés, was caught on camera in conversation with Henry's Spanish Arsenal team mate, Reyes, referring to Henry as negro de mierda. You don't need a degree in Spanish to work out what that means.
I seriously doubt that this has anything to do with "interracial dating/or sex" as both were/are human, and they were probably/hopefully not involved in an intimate relationship with each other. Also, are you sure Henry was'nt called mierda de negro, as that would make more sense.:wink:
Er, Manly did not introduce this subject so I'm not sure why you are quoting her and not the person who first introduced the topic?
Anyway, her quote was correct:
