I just had a question. Is it ever ok to ask a women if a person's ethnicity is a problem for them. If so how would you ask.

Hi Brandon,

I don't see why it shouldn't be okay to ask your question. You might ask what her thoughts are about interracial dating.

God Bless!

Oh, of course it is ok.



As for how to ask..... hmm.. Not sure. What about "Have you ever dated a (fill in your ethnic group here)?"

Brandon, I think it's ok if you feel the need to ask it. Someone asked me, and while I was surprised, (I'd never been asked before...), I felt the person was really being honest with me, and really wanted to know if that'd be an issue for me. He made me feel he was interested in me because he asked.



The more I thought about it before replying, I thought well why not. And since then, I've had a very different perspective about that possibility. ~ GraceMae

I don't think the issue has to be brought up in first contact message like the example you had in the other topic. You have pics up, so if they aren't into interracial dating, then I'm guessing they won't respond, and then you have your answer.

We said almost the same thing, and I had not read your response. Will you agree with me that great minds think alike? :) Just kidding.

I think it's perfectly ok to ask. I was asked recently and I was glad he brought it up because now he knows for sure that I'm totally ok with it. It also opened the door for us to talk about our ethnic backrgounds and what our family's think. It was a great conversation starter.
