I would marry outside my gender, but never marry a redhead.

race: yes
creed/religion: as long as they weren't too extreme either way
same sex: not interested. Definitely hetero.
Race: soitainly! I've dated black, Mexican and oriental ladies. Customs and early environment shape us to an extent, but people are people. From a racial aspect, whether you're compatible or not is an individual thing.
Creed: possible - depends how differently we see things. I can respect difference in viewpoint as long as her acting on hers doesn't bother any of mine, and vice versa.
Religion: possible - depends on how reasonable she is, how heavily she is into the thing, and whether she wants to convert me/others. A lady I'm dating right now is an active Sunday school teacher for a class of teenagers and is there at her church without fail every Sunday for that class. But, she doesn't agree with the preacher's position on some stuff, so she teaches her class and then leaves. So far, it hasn't interfered in any way with our new and growing relationship.
Gender: it ain't gonna happen. (How did this get added in?)

Race is not an issue...
Creed and religion... anyone who expected me to share beliefs I didn't think true would be out the door. They could believe what they liked, although I couldn't be with anyone I thought dumb. I'm not saying all believers are dumb. My girlfriend is a believer of sorts, and very not dumb.
As for sex... boy are icky, girls rule... if you feel differently, fine, good for you, but a male is as sexually interesting as fly fishing to me.
The sex thing came from Venice IT; she interpretted Celtic saying '... or having a girl/boyfriend from same' as 'having a girl/boyfriend from same sex'.
You naughty girl Venice! Sex on the brain, as per normal. And very pretty eyes.

Redheads are nutin' but trouble!

Race: absolutely
Creed: yes, as long as she was as tolerant of me as I would be of her.
Religion: not a problem, as long as I'm not expected to participate.
Having a girl/boyfriend from same: "same" as in "same sex"? No way in hell. I like the curves, shape, sound, smell, aura, etc., etc., etc, of girls.
Race has never bothered me. I'm white but prefer dark skinned women with some notable exceptions (looking your way Xena, MrMoe, BitterMango, Tatiana) Mostly, I just really enjoy women.
Creed hmmm, I've never really been able to seperate creed and religion.
Religion, I would never again become involved with a JW, I think if one has "deeply held religious convictions" that marrying someone outside that religion has a whole series of unique problems. Were I to do it again I'd find a nice Catholic girl.
Gender, I'm against the same gender thing, did it once a LONG time ago, it's not for me. Ok, more than once, but still, not for me, my religious convictions lead me to believe it's wrong. Having said that, ya'll do what you want, I'm not your judge.
