Do you think my dad is just being overprotective of his lil girl ?

Question

my dad said that I'm not a loud to date black guys i think its wrong do you?

Answer 1

you date whoever the heck you want to no matter the race. its just a skin color!

Answer 2

well i would say that he has a stereotypical image in his head so if you could prove this image wrong then you should be good.

Answer 3

Well that is racist but hes your father therefore its NoT he probably sees that alot of girls are taken by black guys and sadly alot of black guys do use white girls for money and many other things. Plus if he was from a good family (which alot might be) his parents probably are not going to accept you becaue your white, by parents I mean cousins,aunts ect.

P.S alot of black girls think you are moving in on their territory cuz my friends told me before " I hate seeing a black guy witha white girl get the  h**l away from the brother"

I think  your dad is just trying to help you he honestly probably thinks you cannot handle all of this at your age.

Take care and if some1 happens to be black and your interested jusst consider the circumstances.

Good luck 2 u hun

Answer 7

Is there a certain black guy that you are interested in dating?  Are you attracted to black guys?  OR are you just being a pain in the a$$ daughter who wants to say just the opposite of her father to prove a point and to torment your parents?  Inter-racial relationships are difficult and should be approached with some maturity.  It's not a perfect world and when you choose to step outside the norm lots of unpleasant things can happen...don't buy trouble.

Answer 8

He is being overprotective that way probably because black guys are always the likely suspects for crimes - very wrong, yes, but I think he doesn't want you to get hurt.

Or he could possibly be racist (sorry!)

He's not really allowed to tell you who you can and can't date, in my opinion. I think it's wrong of him to say something like that.

Answer 9

he is stereotyping based on ignorance

Answer 10

he's not being overprotective.

he's being a racist b*****d.

(sorry to say that about your dad, but you need to see that)

Answer 11

Your father's racist.

He might be able to force you to behave like that in the house, but don't let his ignorant views pass to you.

Answer 12

Its racist and dumb on his part because thats obviously going to make you want them more and when you leave home you are going to be one of those girls we see in videos on websites with like 10 (use imagination to finish this sentence)...

Answer 13

SAME HERE!! my dad says the same, but he likes black guys. lol our dads are so funny

PS my uncle is the same to his daughters too.

but i liek black guys i think they are cool:)

Answer 14

I think your Dad has the best in mind for you and you should listen to him.

Answer 15

Interracial dating takes a great deal of maturity.  So it isn't something you should embark on when you are very young.  Not sure that is your father's thoughts on it, but that is true. In any case,  you should follow the rules until you are 18, and if you are mature enough to handle the difficulties after that, then go for it.  

Answer 16

Hi Pinklover ,

Everyone will think its wrong because its segregation

it's the 21st century and everyones still being racist or having

some issues due  to skin color.

I think its not over protective but its to his liking

I hate when parents tell you who to date and not to.

  Really All you can do is Ask why does he not want you to and tell us.

I think its mean giving names like racist prick before we know the reason

Sweetie, You know its wrong of him and he might know that too

and someday i hope this is all over and we can all get together like crayons in a box

Answer 17

a lot of "dads" have this rule.  I have found that you shouldn't worry about it.  It is a matter of opinion whether he is right or wrong, and his opinions are meaningful to him.  While under his roof, he's right.  Under your own roof, you're right.

If you find a man that makes you happy, and he happens to be black, and he treats you well, your dad will get over it... seriously, if you're his lil girl, he's not going to risk losing you over a guy, is he?

Answer 18

If he's racist then that's another case but he could simply be consuming the stereotypes. If you do like a black fellow then it's worth a try introducing him as a friend first to your father. Good luck.

Answer 19

your father is racists.

always do what you think is best for you. it's how you learn.

Answer 20

Racism is frowned upon greatly these days. However many people forget that some generations grew up in a society where racism was normal. your dad is not being overprotective, I think he is just being racist. However talk to him and ask him why. Chances are when he was younger dating someone of a different race was frowned upon. You should try and explain to him that your generation does not have these racial issues (or really have LESS racial issues). Also, it is up to you. Some people don't find other races attractive and that is completely normal.

Answer 21

Sounds kinda racist.

Answer 22

He is racist. When your 18 you can do what you want.

Answer 23

First you need to stop worrying about dating so much and worry more about your education.  Not to be unkind, but it is spelled allowed.  I realize that was probably just an "oops" because most people don't pay attention to what they type.  I've made similar mistakes often.

But at any rate, I don't think he is being overprotective at all.  I think he wants what he thinks is best for you.  There are tremendous hurdles to overcome when dating outside your race.  I am white and married a Puerto Rican.  He is of Spanish decent and looks very white so it is more acceptable...but there have been some serious hurdles we have had to overcome.  It hasn't been easy.  There are cultural differences that we have had to work out.  

And the stereotypes about black men and hispanic men for that matter aren't completely unfounded.  There is a great deal of truth culturally to those stereotypes and you would be a fool to think it would be any different for you.  

I'm not saying a white man or man of your race couldn't cheat on you, but the likelihood that you would hook up with a black man that would run around is pretty high.  That is just a fact.  

Could you find a black man that wouldn't?  Sure you could.  Maybe your dad is just trying to protect you?  Don't be so hard on him.

If you find a man worth dating, then have this guy meet your dad.  Just set your standards high.  Here are a few characteristics I would suggest for any color/race gentleman I dated:

Educated

Well spoken

Good reputation

Polite

Funny

Sunny disposition

Ambitious

Hardworking

Family oriented

Honors his parents

Treats women with respect

and most importantly.....goes to church because Jesus saved his soul.

Answer 24

He's just being judgmental and may be a little scared about being open minded. He probably has an 'image' of black guys all being thugs and criminals which is NOT the case at all. So just do what you want.

Answer 25

COMPLETELY WRONG!!!

Your dad is racist and needs to back off

Answer 26

Your dad is a racist prick.  

Answer 27

Maybe you're dad things that all black guy's are the same that they only like to do bad things.But what he doesn't know is that there are black guys that respect you han have good manners and are willing to date the girl they love do;t matter what the people say if you think he his a good person you should date him.Tell you're dad that not only black guys are terrible even white guys and mexican ones too..if he still doesn't let you then it may be that he is a racist

Answer 28

no, he's not being overprotective, that's being racist

Answer 29

allowed* not a loud

Answer 30

yeah but... it will be hardest on your future child if have a kid with a black man. I have a mixed cousin whose dad is black and divorced from his mom, so his mom always tans really dark to look as dark as her son so that he doesn't get questioned a lot especially now that he has a white stepfather

Answer 31

not only is he being overprotective but he's being extremely racist as well! he could, however, just be a victim of the common misconception about black men: that they are dangerous and untrustworthy. i've dated a black guy before, and honestly it's like with any kind of dating where your parents need to get to know who you're dating before they can pass any judgement. if you truly do like a black guy somewhere down the road, you can't exactly help who you fall for, and maybe it will be the right time for your dad to get over outdated prejudice! if he loves you, he'll love who you love.
