hollandgirl: What Oprah meant was simply saying aknowledge the different as I do, but that is where it should end

mylifewithu: It was easier for her a woman in powr and money and marrying white, she can't go wrong. But a white woman marrying black there is a lot of hate there, a lot more than Opra has ever seen, I love the woman but her views are only in the rich lane.

hollandgirl: Some one told Oprah Winfrey that they were colour blind.
I loved Oprah's answer; Oh your colour blind? I can see cleary that your white.

Many years ago while living in California a black man wanted to date me. We dated a little
I told him that I would not be able to stand it when people would be staring and pointing fingers.
It would hurt me too much, if I cared about him.
At that time is was indeed a rare sighting to see a black man and a white woman or visa versa. (Where in the 70th. here)
My sister having married a Indo,(half Dutch, half Indonesier), was furious at me. You asked him for dinner etc.
The thing was he understood me very well.
Today I would feel different but it is another time now, or is it?
There will always be people frowning about a mixed couple I know.
How do you feel about it?
