Conversations with a Queen
Needless to say my Mother is the Greatest ^_^ We just spoke for about an hour talking on different subjects such as religion, relationships, spirituality, school and my plans for the future. There’s what I want to do and what needs to be done. I alone will have to figure them out for Self but it’s always encouraging to bounce ideas of of someone who can unbiasly provide input although our ideas may differ.
One thing we concur on… interracial relationships are not only permittable but acceptable! I havn’t brought an african-american woman home since I graduated highschool. “Different strokes…” ^_^ I’ve read “compelling” arguments that basically state when you date outside your race it’s because you have a subcontious hate for yourself (as an individual within a collective group) which includes other factors such as intent, respect and cultural differences or short comings. She not only agress with my views on Love as a universal concept but likes the idea that one day she’ll have a mixed grand baby. Unfortunately for her if 1 comes… 7 more will follow because my 8th child WILL be named Octavian/Octavia. Hopefully I’ll be able to call here again this evening before she goes to work.
We also agree that I’m a bundle of Love with s 60s State of Mind ^_^
I am not a Hipster. ✌

This was a joy to read. And neat plan @the eighth’s child.
It’s very cool that you and your mom can have those kinds of conversations with each other without getting hostile. Every time I express my views to my parents on certain things like love being universal and gay marriage, it always ends in a fight.
Anyone I date is automatically in a interracial relationship… Because I’m so multiracial it isn’t even funny. Well a little. I don’t think dating outside of your race indicates anything really, but it is funny…. all the people on my mother’s side (Swedish) went for dark people, and all the people on my dad’s side (mixed Islander/other things) went for blonde/white people. They say you’re attracted to people who have complimentary MHC’s… we all know that mutts are healthier in general than purebreds.
Did you know: there is more genetic diversity within Africa than in the rest of the world? Also Africans are the only people who are true homo sapiens, the rest of us have Neanderthal in us.

@nov_way - Haha. So far I don’t have to worry about it ^_^
@ItsAll_A_LoveWar - It’s been a journey to say the least but things are good and I’m a better person for it. I appreciate you checking me out
@thiscrazyworld - I did not know that (about homo sapiens) I’m gonna research some more on it. As far as dating gos (especially in America) we have our genetic make-up and then our cultural influences imo. One way or another things get mixed up within people lol.
@mirabel11 - Thanks for the offer but I won’t be emailing. Next time read without commenting. Please and Thank You ^_^
Peace and Love All
“And the last shall be first”. Glad to see you gave the scam artist quick shift.
Everyone is already “mixed race”, especially as there is only one race, every since the last Neanderthal died hunted and alone.
Not as visually dramatic as between sub-Saharan African and trans-Alpine European, but I’m British, which means I have the genes running through me of a multitude of mutually hostile heathen hosts. What I know of my own mish-mash of barbarians include Briton-Saxon, Saxon-Dane, Saxon-Norman, Irish-Dane, Irish-Norman, English-Irish, English-French and my father came from the East-End docks area of London, which probably means the genes of major immigrant groups such as Jewish and Russian after possibly to be found if delved enough. My first cousins who did not emigrate to various New World places, include half Portuguese, half Ukrainian, half Irish, half West-Indian and I am married to a French with a Spanish father.
My point being that although all or most are today classed as “white” or as the American like to amusingly say “Caucasian”, all the aforesaid tribes were within historical times at each others throats with a bloody vigour. Maybe humanity will not finally become one until we have an external focus point to compare ourselves with. So “come on you aliens, if you think you’re hard enough”.
Racism is an extension of that tribalism and natural enough. But we are civilised men, well, we like to think we are, and what comes naturally has to be moulded and adapted and in some cases eliminated from the body social and politic. What is natural has to be controlled not encouraged.
That said, I’m unsure that I’d want my daughter to marry a Scottish Highlander or an American. Half of the former barbarians don’t even wear trousers and half of the latter are tattooing themselves like savages.
Oh well, maybe there’s no hope for us after all. Back to the longboats lads, for a quick row to England to ravage all the maidens, axe all the monks and plunder all their stuff. Ahhhh, those were the days: rape, pillage and arson, not to forget emptying all the wine barrels the hard way.
Your Mother is a wise woman and it is wonderful that you are able to have these discussions.
I grew up in a home of open minded parents and the majority of my relationships have been with African American men and that was long before it was considered right in many peoples eyes.
Perhaps what’s right for me, is not right for you, but don’t step on my shoes because you have other ideas. It is my life and I live it my way. I have always marched to the beat of a different drummer. *smile…
Love your choice of music. I have the CD and have been listening to it this week. I have been lucky enough to see them live 4 times. Amazing performers…
@Lovegrove - I appreciate your extensensive clarification and output. Again new information for me to read up on myself ^_^ Any man who can’t wear trousers doesn’t deserve my daughter lol Tattoos I’ll have to agree to disagree ^_^ Peace and Love
@MzSilver - I think you two would converse very well. I also told her what a “Xangan” was and explained it to her using you as an example. She was amazed that I speak with someone who also has fibro. As always it’s a pleasure to hear from you ^_^ I think I would be a bad man if I could have heard the Temptations live 4 times! That’s awesome.
Lucky you have a good relationship with your mom. My mother and I could never agree on anything especially love which by the way, I’ve never dated anyone of my own race. I guess a little by choice.
@diditdreaming - http://news.discovery.com/human/genetics-neanderthal-110718.html Okay so now I wonder something. You know how Africans tend to dominate at running sports? I wonder if it’s because of this, everyone else are worse at running because Neanderthals were shitty runners as well. I mean that was part of the homo sapiens deal, really good efficient long distance runners, but Neanderthals were bulky and inefficient runners (however great at surviving in cold weather).
Next time someone is racist you can point out you are the only true pure humans in the world. That’s probably my favorite part of all of this.
@jennylovve - I’m thankful for our relationship as I know everyone can’t say the same. As far as relationships go Love is…. the other things don’t matter much imo ^_^
@thiscrazyworld - Will check it out ^_^
they will accept my alien wife!
@CaKaLusa - Not if she is one of those green ones
You have good talks with your mother. I find it ridicules to try and read self hate into a person skin color preferences. Obviously you do not hate your mother, saying you hate your own would tend to include her
@trunthepaige - Indeed ^_^ Thanks for the incite
Interracial relationships are very interesting! Not only both parties get to learn a while deal about the other but there’s always fascinating to share and talk about. About children it is awesome to imagine what they’ll look like, how the mix is going to be.. my nephews/nieces are a mix of different races (well, not sure if that’s the right word for it but you know what I mean) and they’re so cute! Your mom would be fascinated with every grandchild and puzzled if your future wife speaks/teaches your children another language.. that’s a funny thing also!
The more interracial relationships we have, the sooner we can all truly become color blind. We need that.
@xOne_twentyX - I agree. It would also be interesting raising a bilengual child ^_^
@Aloysius_son - True Indeed. I never thought of it like that. Color Blind
We also agree that I’m a bundle of Love with s 60s State of Mind ^_^
There are all kinds of things to love about that!
that’s a really cool relationship you’ve got with mom.
