Is a woman with an abusive Chinese ex available instead? Because in that Led Zeppelin song “Whole Lotta Love” it advises me to keep a coolie baby. ---

A woman’s child being half-black would have no bearing at all on whether I would date her. Is that really the \*crux \*of your issue? ---

> [@juck](#): > > I always hear"my ex beat me up and is no father". Run from women who not only have made a spectacular bad choice in a prior mate, but didn’t also have enough sense to not make a useless abuser the father of their children. Then ask yourself why these women find you. If you “always” hear the same thing, you’re doing something to attract it. ---

If anything having a “mixed race” child would be a small bonus for me, since it indicates a probable lack of racism on her part. I mean, consider the opposite; would you date a woman who held up her little kid and started boasting of his racial purity? No way. > [@DrCube](#): > > I would hope it’s the top half. Otherwise, what’s she doing with a pair of baby legs? She thought King Solomon was joking. ---

I mean, consider the opposite; would you date a woman who held up her little kid and started boasting of his racial purity? No way. Oh, nothing long term. But, I can see fun in the short term. “Who’s your big kosher daddy?” “You are!” “Damn right! Now, say it.” “I’m a bad aryan for wanting your Jewish cock!” and so forth > [@](#): > > She thought King Solomon was joking. For some reason, this makes me picture Samuel L Jackson as Solomon. “We have one more question for you. Do we look like a bitch? We said, do we look like a bitch?” “N nno your majesty.” “Then why did you try to fuck us like a bitch? Screw it, Bring us our sword. We gonna carve that motherfucking baby up.” ---

Is the kid good at sports? If I play my cards right I could get a house and car outta the deal. ---

High probability that I wouldn’t date a woman with a child. Like most, the race of the kid wouldn’t concern me. ---

If it’s something you have to decide whether or not it’s okay to do, do everyone a favor and don’t do it. ---

I’d be concerned about dating a woman who has a kid who’s half black and half white. That makes the kid a Grey. And I’m not spending the night in a house with an extraterrestrial. ---
