I’m an Asian guy and my last girlfriend was a blonde and people stared fucking holes into our skulls.
Your’re polygamous and kinky?
Not “people STARTED fucking holes into our skulls.” People STARED fucking holes into our skulls.
I wonder about the differences regionally. Chicago is very diverse and I don’t think interracial couples get much attention. Of course, that could be my own non-bias reflecting what I observe.
People are just people. When I see an inter-racial couple, I just think, “I hope they get their kids to register for the bone marrow registry”.
(Seriously: it’s hard for bi-racial people to find bone marrow matches because of the unique combination of antigens that bi-racial people have compared to those who are only of one race.)
I live in Northern California. I voted “just another couple”. I live in a very racially diverse area. Lots of interracial couples, including close friends of ours. We, however, are not interracial.
Where do you live? General area of the US is fine. Did your GF notice? I’m interested.
Washington DC. My ex did notice - we actually made a game of it; sometimes we’d walk through the mall or something and count how many people stared at us as we walked by. It was especially conspicuous because in DC people go to great lengths to avoid eye contact. Also, oddly, it was mostly women who did most of the staring.
ETA: I’ll add another wrinkle: It only happens when I’m with blondes. I’ve been with brunettes and nobody bats an eye.
I’m Asian and my wife is white. Here in the San Francisco area it’s no big deal. Out in the boonies in the USA, these days it’s mostly not a big deal. When I was in college I dated a lot of blondes. It was a phase (wife is brunette).
As I read this thread I couldn’t help but recall, chuckling, the scene from Blazing Saddles where Cleavon Little’s character, the black sheriff, yells out, “Hey, where are the white women at?” (YouTube; 4-sec video clip)
I bet there’re nothing compared to inter-able relationships. 
stares to spare…
My last girlfriend was biracial – black father, white mother. Both my parents are white, so I guess that made us an interracial couple. I never noticed anybody staring at us or anything, but I’m often oblivious.
When I see an interracial couple I’ll usually make a mental note of it. I don’t stare.
It depends on where I am and what the races are. In Seoul, white man/Asian woman is far too common to blink at. Any other combination might make me take note.
In Belfast we get all sorts of weird looks.
The funniest thing I’ve experienced as a mixed race couple is when we were on a trip in a more rural area of Korea. We were taking a walk around a pond when a little kid started staring at us, then turned to his mom and said excitedly in Korean, “MOM look it’s a MULTICULTURAL HOUSEHOLD.” (He probably picked up that term from his Social Studies textbook.)
I am half of one, so were my parents. I said Yay!
Somewhat amusingly, I thought Asian/white when reading the title. I’m guessing it’s from a desire to date an Asian. I didn’t click on black/white until reading other responses.
To that: I used to be taken aback somewhat, but am happy to say that response is increasingly waning. 
I think part of it is being originally from Vermont, then moving to Iowa. There are far more black people out here, it seems.
Comedian Ken Jeong on dating a tall blonde woman:
Does looking at them and thinking “Damn, those two are going to have some beautiful babies” count as ogling?
Many people have said this to me, and you can’t imagine the pressure. What am I going to do if we have butt ugly babies? We’ll have to build a labyrinth in the attic.
Trust me. Nobody is going to tell you you have an ugly baby.
It’s just another couple.
Do I ogle? It depends. Is she hot?
Depends which side of the fence you’re on. If it’s a woman from your race, you get a slight feeling of ill-use and neglect. If it’s the man, meh, it’s your life.
