    It’s not about the dad, it’s about the prospective mate thinking it’s noteworthy. They could say that and then their dad doesn’t give even a little bit of a shit about it.

        The problem is that she’s interested because his ethnicity is taboo (her dad would flip), not because of who he is as a person.

          I ask about family a lot to flush that out, if ‘‘my dad would be so pissed if they knew I was dating you’’ pops up. I’m out.

          that doesn’t necessarily mean that “she’s interested because his ethnicity is taboo”. I’ve heard that same phrase countless times, which made me write my previous comment. “She” may be saying the exact same thing without her participating in your taboo/fetish game.

              when expression of disagreement is called “asshole”, i can be. I disagree with what’s written in the above comment.

              Do you live in a world where everybody thinks the same way?
