Argentina. I'm all for being with whoever you want to be, but there's not much race diversity around here to begin with, the line "separating" whites from hispanics has long since blurred. There're practically no blacks, and most Asians seem to keep to themselves.

It is still uncommon enough to be remarkable when you see it happen on TV, though common enough that it is amazing that it still get remarks. I was frankly amazed when I heard one US breakfast cereal advert get a backlash because it showed a black man married to a white woman. The same thing happened when I saw Jessica Jones and Luke Cage have an onscreen relationship, and released it was really rare to see a white woman with a black man shown on tv without it being shown as anything other than normal...being that this was about superheroes having sex, that said something.

I'm white British, married to an Indian Indian. After a while you forget about it, but occasionally, when describing the relationship to other people you go "holy shit, we're interracial, I guess!" Interracial is a word that usually appears only in porno vids, so we tend not to think of it that way - but it is the way. That seems crazy to me.
