I think we will see more mixed race children over time, now that different race marriages and relationships are more accepted.
Okay, this old relic is moving on.......    |
Well you were surprised that it’s “accepted” for people identify with a race if they don’t look like it. That’s why I was confused who you think needs to provide such acceptance. And who can tell people how to feel about their own identity. It sounded all kind of wrong to me. I am not young either btw. But it’s 2020. I live in a very multi cultural multi racial metro area so this line of thinking just sounds very foreign to me.
Take care. I am bowing out. This conversation is triggering like heck so I’ll go do self care now
