Temat: Interracial dating
A new report has highlighted the challenges of interracial dating faced by people in the UK, including prejudice from family and friends and fetishisation on dating apps. A key element of anti-racist dating is understanding the lived experiences of others, rejecting stereotypes and having ongoing and meaningful conversations about antiracism and allyship, so it’s important to examine and call out the racism at play in interracial dating.
The Mixed Up in Love report, released from dating app Inner Circle in collaboration with the authors of MIXED UP: Confessions of an Interracial Couple, surveyed over 1000 UK adults actively dating with a minimum of 100 respondents in the ethnic groups Asian, Black, Mixed, White British and White Other, and found that over a third (37%) of respondents have experienced racial micro aggressions or discrimination due to being a part of an interracial couple.
Respondents most commonly cited fearing a backlash or critical responses from those closest to them - their friends and family (49%) - as well as negative reactions and behaviours from colleagues (34%) while interracially dating.
Tineka Smith, journalist, racial equality advocate and author of MIXED UP: Confessions of an Interracial Couple says: “The data shouldn’t be shocking because unfortunately it’s a reality for many interracial couples.”
In her clinical practice, Dr Reenee Singh, Founding Director of the London Intercultural Couples Centre at The Child and Family Practice, sees this backlash as a key challenge for interracial couples. Other problems she cites as common are prejudice coming from a partner in an interracial couple, and the cultural and racial differences between partners leading to misunderstanding, miscommunication and not being on the same page about issues like dealing with extended family and parenting.
The report highlights the issue of microaggressions and racial profiling on dating apps, with three in 10 respondents having experienced this. Mixed race (white & Black Caribbean) and Black African daters are most likely to have experienced some form of discrimination while online dating.
