Let let the poll decide

YES YES YES , sure would,sure have.
Black is beautiful brother, so is Asian and Indian and any other woman.

You're doing yourself a major injustice by limiting your sexual experiences to your cousins and aunts, get out there and live, if you're lucky some black beauty might just let you wet your whistle.

I'ld think so.
Right person is the right person.

Probably best with my own skin colour though.

All the same colour inside

How is skin colour any more relevant than eye colour, hair colour, whether your second toe is longer than your big toe?? whether your ear lobes are attached or unattached? or whether you cross your legs left up or right up??

Perhaps in the future, racists like oznationalist could have a female cloned from their own DNA, so they could have someone of exactly the same physical characteristics, so as to be as white and pure as possible...

I think it would be more of a barrier at the start of a relationship, especially if there were cultural differences as well. Skin colour might affect who you would choose to date or have sex with, especially if you are vain, while other factors would affect who you choose to marry (assuming this is not the same choice of course). I remember finding really white skin unappealing on a girl because I associated it with with poor health and lack of exercise, even though what I have done to my skin probably isn't that healthy. I have dated girls with dark skin, but I think I would find the really deep purple/black skin a bit confronting.

Not real sure what you mean by 'opposing'. A redhead or pasty white northern European and a purple-black African would be the extreme, or opposite end of the spectrum, but most people are somewhere in between so the term opposing is pretty much meaningless. It is actually rather unlikely that you end up marrying someone with the same shade of skin. In Australia, sun exposure has a greater influence on skin colour than genetics anyway. You would be distinguishing between office workers and farmers or labourers just as much as genetic heritage. I suppose the class divide can be as much a barrier for some as a cultural or racial divide, but once you get to know someone it matters less. It's more a matter of mixing in certain social circles.

I remember when I was in Germany everyone had almost perfect, flawless skin, and there was a lot of diversity in what appeared to be 'genetic' skin colour among people with no other obvious racial or cultural differences.

I have sex with girls of other races, but I would never marry anyone who is not nordic.  Miscegenation is not sound.

Skin color is only one of many racial traits, as anyone who has seen a "black" person with albinism knows.

There is an inherent affinity for kin selection in association, so people tend to mate with those they have greater genetic similarity with and such couplings are more successful.  The other traits you mention are partly heritable and also very important, and it has been shown that in interracial relationships people tend to be more similar in other traits to make up for, if you will, the huge gulf caused by different racial backgrounds.

I'm with coral sea on this one.

I really believe you others are gilding the lily.
It's abundantly obvious to me that blacks are much more likely to and better off marrying other blacks.
Whites with whites, yellows with yellows, etc, etcf, etc.

Who really wants a world of coffee coloured people ?
