[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was growing up I used to think about what our world would look like if there was a law that you had to marry someone from a different race. [b] I thought all the children would be really beautiful.[/b]

As a grown up I remember thinking this fondly but know it would be an unjust and gross law, just like laws preventing interracial marriages were gross and unjust.  [/quote]

I find this viewpoint distasteful. Why the fascination with mixed children looking beautiful?[/quote]

Because, more often than not, they are.   [/quote]

Not true. And the idea of it is distasteful and perhaps a bit self-hating. [/quote]

No self hate here.  I am beautiful but from 100% Western European stock.  My kids are just like me and utterly gorgeous.   :roll:   see no self hate but maybe an abundance of vanity.   :twisted:

I just happen to know many people who have a more diverse heritage than mine whom I think are exceptionally good looking people.   I love seeing different combinations of hair colors and textures, eye colors and shapes, richly colored skin tones and fresh looking faces.  [b]If you think the idea of mixed race people are distasteful, or are generally stating that "their" looks are distasteful, you are a ranting, ignorant, hate mongering loser, in my book, and you are damn ugly to boot.  But, hopefully, that is not what you meant.[/b][/quote]

WTF? Learn to read before you go off the rails.

Agree.  The whole "mixed is more beautiful" is fetishizing and elevating what is normal as somehow superior.  If you think it's fine to say/believe this, what's so wrong about the belief that Northern Europeans are the most beautiful?[/quote]
