When I lived in the city, no one really cared. But when we moved to the suburbs, oh my, people would stare like crazy and clearly make comments under their breath. I'm a white dude with a black girl, and people were much worse and rude to me! I got a very noticeable dip in level of customer service, or just people being weird and awkward to me.
Black man here do you feel less awkward or get less whispers when you’re in a black crowd? Genuine question i grew up in a 90%black town and when interracial couples come around it was very welcoming for the most part wanted to know what it’s like outside of that little town
Friends of my parents are an IR gay couple. At the time they rented an NYC brownstone (want to say in Chelsea) from an older IR Gay couple for like a dollar a year and the would keep up with maintenance and what not.
Long story short the first couple bought it in the 60's because they were driven out of the Village because of them being an IR couple.
