question to people who are married, in a relationship, engaged or whatever you want to call it. your partner/spouse. What ethnicity is he/she? do you date only particular ethnicities/races?

I'm not in a relationship but I can't see myself marrying a full Anglo-Saxon girl.
Of course, there will always be exceptions.
I'm not black and white on the issue like many people tend to be with race and relationships, eg "I don't date ___"

She is half Nordic / half Sino (Chinese)
As for preference, well I still do have certain bias; I would prefer a Slavic girl to a Germanic one, or a Celtic girl to an Anglo one. I'm extremely attracted to Turanid girls, hence I prefer them to other Asian girls...
... But in truth, these preferences never worked for me, I appreciate hot booty when I see it. So I ram the girls first, worry about the consequences later.
To the point I ended up getting involved with a girl from a race that my people despise. Even if she's only half.

"This girl"? I'm talking about my gf lol! I'm 3/4 Mongol 1/4 Russian. She's 1/2 Norse 1/2 Chinese.
Amongst my people intermixing with Sinos is not so encouraged. Since almost every Mongol that intermixed with Chinese ended up being a Northern Chinese person - no longer Mongol.

oh lol i'm stupid. i'm sorry i should have known seeing i made this thread anyway mongolia and russia.. let's start with mongolia, it's in asia.. russia is right next to it.. you can't really say russia is a white country because russia is massively big, it's considered as..most of it is in top of asia and some in europe lol i guess it really depends on who lives there.

Heh yeah but Siberia is really underpopulated and non-rich soil. Most Slavics prefer to live close to Europe. My grandmother lives a rather quiet life in Siberia, it's originally territory for the more peaceful Turkic and Tunguistic nomadic tribes. Unlike their warlike cousins to the south (Us) or west (Turkish)

for real? why is that? lol I guess because in terms of character, I prefer girls that are more conservative and/or strictly disciplined, and generally, I don't really associate these types of traits with girls that are my age, are of Anglo-Saxon descent, and live in Australia. Of course there are and will always be exceptions to this, and of course there are people of backgrounds that are more commonly associated with such traits that don't follow this trend either. Hence, I am not black and white on the issue, and try to take each individual for what they are worth in this aspect. Therefore, I don't have any particular view such as, "I don't date [insert race here]", and in my previous post, instead wrote "I can't see myself marrying ___", based on a generalised observation to which there are exceptions. Anyway, I'm only 21, so I'm sure there is much more to learn about with regards to what constitutes marriage material.

I got married last summer to a nice Jewish girl from New York. Since she's Sephardic (of Iraqi and Turkish Jewish ancestry) I'd like to think she's Eurasian too, but who am I kidding? She's pretty damned white (but more olive than pink). I've dated a Scottish Canadian before, as well as a Cuban mulatta, and a Chinese girl, so I'm not particularly picky (except that I don't go for blonds - some kind of reverse Oedipal thing I guess?). I was very lucky that my wife's family is relatively non-religious and very open-minded - a lot of Jews stick to their own kind.

My GF's ethnicity is English/Irish. Her fam is like 8 generations Canadian. I've dated bunch of white girls, and 2 Italian/white chicks. I guess not much variation. Incomprehensibly attracted to EA girls tho. I've only come across a couple and never at the right time.
Where are all EA gals at?

My husband is a blonde haired green eyed Dutch boy. I never liked blonds growing up, but he was pretty darn charming and I couldn't resist. ;D
I've dated half Japanese, half black, East Indian, and White.

My boyfriend's Vietnamese, as was my ex too. Hmm, actually, thinking about it now, he's 3/4 Viet, 1/4 French but always identified as full Viet. I'm not closed to any ethnicity. Although I don't particularly see myself with a white guy. Perhaps because most of my friends (especially guy friends) aren't white, and I'm more the type to date a friend. I've just contradicted the theory some EA men like to cling to that EA girls are all sell-outs and only go for the white man.
