I don't like the term interracial relationship because for me there is only one race - the human race.

I feel the same about the term 'mixed race' too.

How do other people feel?

Almost anyone whose family has been in the United States is mixed. So, what we call race, is nothing more than different skin pigmentation. It is a silly way to judge and categorize people.

I suppose they could call it inter-something else, and mixed-inheritance maybe. Miscegenation sounds awful but I doubt it's used much. It's all semantics though.

I don't like it either. I remember my son, as a young white boy, asking me " So if I marry a black girl and we have kids, why iis the kid automatically black?" I had no answer to that and am still scratching my head.

Race is an artificial construct we are one species!

I've been with white women, black women, latina women and asian women. And I'm betting that not one of these women was "pure" of any race.

I couldn't possibly give less of a shit. Skin color was the last thing I saw. All I saw was a woman whose eyes and smile left me weak at the knees and I knew beyond the shadow of a doubt that I wanted to be as physically close with her as it is possible for two organic life forms to be.

I don’t like or use those terms either. As you said, we’re all members of the same race.

A long time ago scientist discovered there waas not such thing as "race". A group of chimpanzees living in different locations have more genetic diversity than any human group. Ours is simple a matter of culture and cosmetics. I like to refer to the different groups as belonging to different tribes.
