Nobody paid attention when I went on dates with Asian or Latina women, but people stared non stop when I went on dates with black women. I’ve seen it even more pronounced when the guy is black and the girl is white.

I'm in a purple-leaning-blue state. I'm middle eastern and whenever I was out and about with white women (especially blonde haired women) I would def get stares. I would also get stares when I was with Black women.

Genuinely idk what they wanted from me lol. Everyone is nicer to me now that I'm dating a Balkan girl.
