About

Interracial Intersection™ aspires to be a community site for black women who date interracially, are in (heterosexual) interracial relationships, and men who are open to or in interracial relationships involving black women. Some black women in this community prefer white men, some prefer Asian men, others prefer men of formerly colonial Spanish-speaking countries (commonly referred to as “Latinos” in the U.S.), and still others are open to all men or a variety of men.

We explore questions and issues surrounding these sorts of relationships, debunk myths and stereotypes, and share advice and experiences on attracting meeting, dating, relating as individuals and possibly cross-culturally, building and maintaining strong relationships and marriages, multiracial children and families, and much more.

As adults, we are not required to seek understanding, input or permission from outside parties about who we as individuals choose to allow into our personal lives. Therefore, on Interracial Intersection™, we don’t feel obligated to debate, explain or justify who we as individuals choose to date, spend our lives with, or why. We assume black women who want to date or marry interracially have that freedom – and the discussion moves forward from there.

Non-constructive or irrelevant contributions to the discussion on interracial relationships involving black women, personal attacks or general rudeness, and excessive use of profanity are subject to moderation. Examples of non-progressive commentary is upholding increasingly outdated views of “blackness,” as this does not seem conducive to healthy relating, dating and mating beyond the colorline. Sexually explicit remarks made about black women or made to or about other members will be regarded as spam.

I am a young woman who is of a Caribbean ethnicity, and American by nationality. I'm married to a white man, whom I met during my teens. We've been together for nearly a decade. I have some female relatives and friends who are also married interracially. I share my experiences and thoughts in order to encourage and support other black women who are in interracial relationships or considering the possibility.
