Study: Interracial relationships causing black people in the UK to disappear
"If population projections based on the national census are to be believed, people who describe themselves as ‘mixed race’ could become the largest, single, ethnic minority group in the UK within the next 25 years." - Laura Smith (The Catalyst Magazine)
MediaTakeOut.com claims having got hold of an article in one of the UK newspapers suggesting that Black folk (Caribbean Black folk in particular) are in danger of disappearing because of the rise in interracial relationships in the UK.

Apparently, 1 in 10 children in the UK come from mixed-race families. Going by the study’s prediction, if current trends (interracial relationships and marriages) continue, some ethnic minorities may cease to exist as mixed-race individuals become more common.
The study also shows that some ethnic groups are more likely to be in interracial relationships. Going by the figures provided by the study, 48% of Black Caribbean men and 34 per cent of Black Caribbean women are in interracial relationships in contrast to those of Pakistani backgrounds (8% men and 6% women).
Do you think we should worry ourselves over some ethnic groups disappearing due to interracial relationships or should we instead look at it from a different perspective – that racism in the UK is disappearing?

Mutts are healthier and live longer. Pure-breds are bred for specific traits like a Dalmation's spots or speed, but are notoriously neurotic and disease-prone. Mutts are healthier and better-adjusted.

Racialskeptic Nature want us to mix. It is very important if Humans want to continue to exist. Humans with larger gene pools are more likely to survive if there is ever catastrophic events. For example, let say, just for the sake of argument, Blue-eyed people have better night vision (they can spot food and enemies better at night than brown-eyed individuals). If the sun is blocked by natural or man-made event, then people with light blue-eyes would be better fit to survive, right. But, what if a brown-eyed individual have a gene for blue-eyes. Under extreme condition (for survival) these genes would express themselves when two brown-eyed individual produce a child. However, If the Brown-eyed individual ancestors adopted your views about intermixing, that gene may not have been present in the Brown-eyed person's gene pool. Therefore, his or her offspring would not have a good chance for survival. This is how nature works. When nature stop allowing us to share the diversity of our genes, then we will have a problem. Not the other way around. We don't know if our conditions or atmosphere will change 1000 years from now. But, the more diverse our genes are (inter-mixing) the better chance we have for survival as a species.

Simple Truth I can't believe you hold those views this day and age. First of all, we are all part of the same race. Donkey and Horse are not. We all evolved at the same time, but in different geographical areas, which some scientist contributes to unique characteristics or diversity of our gene pool. Now, some genes are superior in under certain conditions, in very hot areas pigmented skin is beneficial. However, in cold areas, less pigment is beneficial. If two people of two different skin types were to mate, their off springs would NOT be sterile. This means, nature is giving them a thumbs up to reproduce. Now, mate one of those people with a chimp with their 98 similar Chromosomes. If a off spring is produced, it would be sterile. Just like your Donkey/Horse example. There is no such thing as superior or inferior human species. We are all the same. Or, can rid your waste like a plant, and make your own food through photosynthesis? I don't think so. Geneticists say (hapmp.org) that all human beings are 99.9% the same-with the exception of a small percent for skin color.

Why is this so hard for people to understand. When animals are bred and crossed in similar species the by-product is a weaker animal having generally more complications in surviving (Physical,health and mental) . This is due to the fact that when a species evolves it takes mother nature thousands of generations to mold it into a perfect design. when two similar species are cross bred, the result is a fair mixing of the two. This result is a conflicted and weaker version of the originals, because each was a perfect design to begin with. There is no room for improvement and if there was it would be done selectively through evolution. I feel that when we see these results in animals we except them as science and fact, but as soon as we involve ourselves we get spiritual, religious and let our emotions and hormones control our thought process. We make ourselves believe these scientific laws do not apply to us, but if we share 98 chromosomes with a chimpanzee than we are just animals too and must take a careful look at what we do to ourselves. Ultimately if we create a singular species (no races) we will not only have undone all the work of nature, we will also have created one very flawed design that will only take one virus, one climactic change, one problem to make us extinct. It is our differences that make each race it's own perfection. Simply following nature's way can lead us by example. Examples when a horse and a donkey are bred a mule is produced, all mules are sterile nature kind of dead ends the two species to prevent further breeding. Lions and tigers are sometimes crossed causing an immediate conflict tigers are solitary animals, while lions are social the mental complications this causes in there crossing has major drawbacks as some are social some are solitary. Hybrid animals are always Known to be temperamental and very prone to disease. When we talk about ourselves we must keep our minds open to science and nature and respect it's boundaries. We must also begin to research openly about ourselves and accept what we find making it public knowledge as fact and not simply racial stereotypes as belief. If we can find this balance of understanding each others races and cultures and preserving them we will all contribute to the success of our species.

mistersuave1 says:Posted: 24 Mar 10lvly83 - Hmmmm, I think you have got the cart before the horse. It's not being suggested that mixing races will eliminate racism ... more that the mixing of races is an indication that racism IS being eliminated due to other factors. Ok, maybe it will never quite disappear (as evinced by some of the grotesque nonsense spouted by contributors of all hues on this thread), but it's an encouraging trend. I think it's just a sign that people in the UK feel they have a choice which isn't solely delimited by race or cultural background, and I'm proud to be a part of it. This thread is so depressing, but not particularly because of the views expressed. If they were carefully researched and were the honest conclusion of some logical train of thought, then I might at least respect them, even if I didn't agree with them. However, when they are the result of tossing a salad of fiction in a dressing of pseudo-science, I fear for the future if it falls into the hands of such crashingly ignorant types. For example: Comment by Observer on 28 June 2009: "Well, what this article should say is that we both Blacks and Whites will be fading out. What a destructive, racially stupid thing to do eh? Theres nothing pretty about a mixed-race person. If there was, then thoroughbred Horses, Dogs, Cats etc wouldn’t be desirable and a mixed-breeds wouldn’t be free at any animal shelter. Were animals too, and i like to see the races stay true and hold onto our different cultures." What this clam-brain fails to realise is that these thoroughbred or pedigree animals are bred solely for their looks or for one particular attribute, such as speed or strength. Such animals, by the process of selective breeding are notoriously short-lived, neurotic and prone to illnesses which their 'mongrel' relatives are relatively free from. Any veterinary surgeon will tell you this, as will Google. I've just picked on one hapless contributor as an example, but this thread is littered with them. This may seem a tad harsh, but such stultifying ignorance seems to have succeeded in making the whole discussion virtually pointless. Too bad, it could have gone somewhere good ...

Caribbean people we don't care so much about race.We have been mixing with others since living in the Caribbean.If you go to Jamaica you will find Asian men with Black women.You go to Trinidad you will find Black and Indians mixing.In the U.S. most Black women marrying White and non-Black men are mostly Caribbean Black women. We don't care about race or color when it comes to dating. I'm a Caribbean woman and my boyfriend is White.

Julep says:Posted: 12 Jan 10I think the UK just looks at race differently than the US. How many Black Americans in the US have bi- or multiracial heritage? To be African American essentially means to be a mix....as we have parents and grandparents with Native, white and Hispanic heritage....be we are still considered to be black in America. Call yourself what you want, but there is no such thing as a pure ethnicity anymore, especially in the US.

I thought nature supposedly created us to be different, what's the point of race-mixing when people evolved their different characteristics over tens of thousands of years, thus creating individual unique-ness. Nature is diversity. Race-mixing just ruins it, and lumping people into a big pool of mud.

georgeW1001 says:Posted: 31 Aug 09Why is this even an issue or a subject matter? I'm definitely from a different planet than everybody else! I'm under the assumption that racial mixing and interracial relationships are inevitable, so I guess everyone's race is subject to extinction at some point. I don't know why this is, but when checking the blog pages, I'm starting to question why we have so many "objectors" of interracial unions that continue to leave remarks on these boards. ......Not sure why anyone would create a profile here, just to reply with racist views. Maybe the site administrators should start monitoring these boards more often.

Comment for "onlinebabe"... Your concept of interracial dating and/or courtship is pretty clear, ..I get that. But help me understand "WHO" it is exactly that you are trying to convince that the Black Race is vanishing or inferior? You appear to have some well-put-together “assumptions”, so I guess what I'm saying is, it would be pointless to post these messages on (of all things) an Interracial Dating Website specifically designed for individuals that are seeking relationships “outside” of their specific race. I call them “assumptions” because I’ll be honest I don’t exactly research interracial offspring/makeup by country on a daily basis vs. white/Caucasian-- to be in a position to argue factual data. As a suggestion it may be best that you start your own blog on the subject;There are numerous sources for you online. I don't think interracial websites should be used as a forum to serve anyone’s personal agenda since they are in fact direct opposites. And just so that we are clear, I respect your views & your opinion which is why I'm not attacking some of your remarks. But parts of your views undermine the entire "essence" behind this site's theme (creators). This in and of itself may deemed offensive to some of the loyal subscribers of the Website. Just a thought… I hope you understand my comments and do not take offense in any way.

I guess the Site owner thinks that allowing non-members access to post on the blogs is a good form of marketing. Some sensible comments do come in that way, but people who are against the very concept of this website are also coming in that way. I don't think any of the paying members who are looking for an environment supportive of tolerance and enlightenment should be subjected to hate messages on the blogs from people are not paying members of this site. Clearly the blog moderator is either often preoccupied with something else, or in a dead sleep.

I think the black caribbeans won't exist any more in england(for the exception of the black caribbeans immigrating there) but not the black africans, they don't cross the line like other blacks because of culture. So I think it's a good thing, so there won't be discrimination and all; but like they say what happens in vegas stays in vegas. England is the only country in the world in this trend. It will take million years before countries in asia and africa follow that trend.

IN repsonse to Leavitobeavr... We have a lot of aliens already in Florida. When I was in Texas, there were lots also. They spoke the same language. I asked one of them to take me to their leader... he pointed to a picture of George Bush...the man responsible for their existance. The alien then said, he needed our votes to win twice, and thats why we have flourished. I can relate to what you said ... but they don't have lizard tails.

Ok the interracial trend is storming the earth. There are places on earth where the percentage of interracial relations are high.One day the aliens will come to earth wanting to try something different like having a human body with a lizard tail.People will move to mars and the aliens will move to earth. Oh yeah the topic will be called, "Why are there mix multi culture people on mars and earth?" The thing is people go where they are mostly accepted to live, breath, and sleep interracial.

Hi all. Answer to HELEN. A white man travels all the way to Africa to find a wife because they are considered exotic, they can cook, clean, Iron, make a home they are creative, have great ideas to share and have more love for the husband. An african woman do not know what is the meaning of cheating with their husbands or having kids with the next door neighbour when she is married(she is always a one man woman). No going out to pubs with a gang of other women(her friends) daily when the husband hangs in the house snoring on the sofa waiting for a phone call to go and collect her after she is pissed. Their women will either be asking the husband for, let me see your bank statements, i must shop for this and that give me your credit card, every week i need this amount from you, watching teli, drinking, smoking waiting for the husband to come home from work and say hmmm Honey is your turn. Keep it tidy. Also many married couples in Europe or whatever lives in the same house but in different bedrooms, no conversation or even a polite hi, You know what i mean two enemies in the name of marriage living in the same house(A FACT) Hahaaaa. Apologies to all since i am not an ignorant racist. lolol

One way to end racism in America is to remove all racial labels from applications, forms, demographics, media, etc. The suspect was light complexion with blond hair, or medium dark complexion with woolly hair. Instead of a white male or black male. This will eliminate mental boundaries. Who cares if you are Latino or black non-Latino. So much emphasis is placed on race in our society, subconsciously, it starts to affect our minds. It makes us feel like we all come from different planets.

comment to elzbelz i agree with you that mixed-race people are of all different nationalities entwined and not just the most common of which is black-white you need to look at the world goegraphiically to know that white people are the majority so it wont be a case of this race fading out-you only need too look at the statistics to see that black relationships are slowly fading out resulting in a smaller generation of black people in the next few decades from this in a relationship perspective their will be more relationships getting together such as....lets say a mixed-race person who chooses to date a white person-in a relationship poss. having children that would result in --erm lol a white child its not hard is it- im not against race mixing but i do feel that you need to draw the line at some point to preserve your race- im not racist im just being real

Firstly I have to agree that this article is stupid not only because its highly negative but because it defines 'mixed race'people as mixed black and white only.My mother is middle eastern and my father white so I regard myself as mixed race,as can most of us Londoners,so are we wrong? As someone pointed out if black people will disappear because they produce mixed race children with white people then arent the white people going to disappear also? and if that were to happen (though I think it impossible)it would be a natural progression that would eliminate rascism (between black and white) in the UK.Anyone who is fearful of this needs to have a talk with themself as I would guess they have very bigotted ideals.

when i raised these points or concerns that i have i didnt rasise them on studies or a scientific basis i dont need to - i have grwn up in a muliti-cultural society and have mixed freinds who have shared their experiences, in england they have done studies and documentaries that show children of mixed ethnicity often have a struggle with belonging. we all know that black peolple come in differnt shades and skin tones but when you consider countries such as africa as large as it is where famine, poverty and the aids rate is very high in this case their life period is very limited- when you look at other countries such as britain and america where interratiol relationships is one the fastest growing trends resulting in mixed children this generation of blacks make up a great amount of the population but it deffinately wont always be like that AND JUST FOR THE RECORD IM FAIRLY LIBERAL AND OPENMINDED I HAVE AN OPINON JUST BECAUSE YOU DONT AGREE WITH IT DOES NOT MEAN IT IS WRONG

I don't understand any of these people who comment on here at all. First of all little_mi, sorry to brake the news to you but BLACK is definitely a race. Most people call other people who don't like black people ignorant; why?? ; we are obviously more educated then you people because science has already proven over and over again that not only do races exist but the black race is indeed inferior to the white race as a whole pure and simple; THIS IS NOT RACISM BUT FACTS THAT YOU PEOPLE HAVE CHOSEN TO IGNORE AND YOU CANNOT FACE THE TRUTH; look at the size and shape of the skulls, brain size, hair, thickness of skin and lips; are you all under some sort of spell or trance??? ; one obvious reason why race mixing is dangerous is because over the last 6000 years the black race has done nothing to deeply impact our world to make it a better place; go ahead deny it, but the burden to prove otherwise will be a daunting task on your part. To sum it up race mixing = the end of civilizations.

I don't understand how the Black Race is dying out when two mixed adults marry they produce children who are light brown, brown, and dark brown? You will see similar shades throughout the continent of Africa!!! They are still Black Africans. Africans are very diverse and comes in many different shades. Just because people are labeled mixed-race for census purposes, doesn't mean Black people no longer exist. The DNA is still there. Then, when you really think about it...who cares. When you die, you can't take your race with you.

Black is a colour - not a race. Black people will not disappear. Consider this, the vast majority of Carribean people are mixed but when you look in their faces you see them as black. Hair, skin tone and features are different between them but they are still "black". Now if you're talking about culture - thats a different thing.....

If you people's utopia does come to fruition, after all the races mix there will be no blissful peaceful society. I'm telling you people now that racism will be replaced with colorism. YOu can see it now in the black community. The lighter skinned "blacks" look down on the darker ones. You can think that will cure itself too but it won't it only becomes more embedded. So you are going to be fuill of a world with fuill breeds and mutts. When biracial people have become the norm, when your mission is complete and you have created a world where the majority of people are mixed race. When breeding within your own race becomes taboo-then it will be on the rise. The world will never be just one race. Dream on!

Blackbirds don't mix with Thrushs nor Blue Tits with Great Tits or Field mouse with Door mouse. Adaption evolves over millions of years, you can't just get two different types of a species to shag and make anything worthwhile that will be adapted to anything. "Thou shalt not commit Adultery" actually means do not race mix - Adulterate: to make impure with something foreign or inferior. Unfaithfullness is already covered by "Thou shalt not covet your neighbour's wife". It is against nature, it is against God. That's why interracial sex is wrong, that's why it's called R-e-p-r-o-d-u-c-t-i-o-n. All race mixers are condemned by natural law to be trapped in the body of a hideous mongrel freak in the afterlife.

I think that this is a bad thing. Do not get me wrong interracial relationships are amazing when love is in the picture; but the sad this is that the majority of the mixed relationships are formed by hatred towards either black women or black men. The stereotype is black women have too much attitude and the black men are worthless. This is a growing sterotype among the black communities and also appearing in Asian/Chinese communities. This is the kind of thing that the U.K. needs to prevent. Unfortunately I disagree and have to say that the USA is ahead of the U.K. for this reason. There are mixed couples in the U.S. but also the same amount of black couples, Asian and Latino couples. A society that is able to keep equal balance in minorities in the one thats ahead. In this case I believe it to be the U.S.A.

The headline makes it sound a bit conspiratorial but if true, it's just a natural fact. Countries have been absorbing folks from other places into their populations since the beginning of time. Usually this comes after a nasty period of oppression but it does come. In the States, I suspect that the bloodlines of most are less than thoroughbred. I know mine is. And my children's is more so. Irish meets German meets Pole meets Swedish meets African meets Dominicano and we are left with United States citizens. Prejudice against the Irish, Jewish, Italian, Eastern immigrants has delayed the process it's true. And, again in this country, the savaging of the Native residents and the savaging of slaves introduced from Africa (and the savaging of various immigrants for a variety of reasons)has made the absorption process more difficult. There is also the effect of ethnic groups isolating themselves. Eventually though it is all about boy meets girl, girl meets boy. If given the opportunity to intermingle to any degree it's gonna happen and racial lines will be blurred. Early adopters pay a greater price it's true but you can't hold back the tide.

Coaching Testimonial
"The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience"
Submitted by: Karen, USA, 34
My Dating Coach really took the time to go through my profile thoroughly. First she viewed my pictures and gave me great feedback.
She read through the written portion of my profile, line by line, and gave direct feedback on how to add my personality to it.
My amazing consultant, even asked how my contacts where going and offered a few suggestions to increase my interactions with new men.
I took her advice and made the suggested adjustments.
I have received more contact from men, more views, and have started communicating with more people which was the whole point of joining the site in the first place.
The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience. Thanks!
