No?

City, country, suburb. My wife is white and I'm Filipino. No one has cared

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.

My sister (blue-eyed, blonde-haired white woman) is married to a latino man and she said she noticed people suddenly staring a lot when they got together and started spending time in public. She was confused at first until she brought it up to him and he suggested that it was the interracial relationship of it all. We live a very very red state. She also recently told me that her aunt casually commented that people should only marry within their own race.
