    Default Hispanics have more positive attitudes towards mixed-race relationships than do Whites and Blacks

    In the USA, that is. Given that Hispanics are already a very mixed bunch to begin with, this should not be surprising, only that in TA there is a tendency by people both left-wing and right-wing (albeit for different reasons) to portray Latin Americans as being the heirs to the Apartheid regime in South Africa. https://www.pewsocialtrends.org/2017...intermarriage/

    But Hispanics can be of any race, which complicates the interpretation of that data.

    It is possible that White Hispanics marry mostly Non-Hispanic Whites; Black Hispanics marry mostly Non-Hispanic Blacks; Mestizo Hispanics marry mostly Asians and Native Americans.

    In other words, a lot of Hispanic-other relationships are not really "interracial".

    I know what you mean, but most Hispanics are mixed-race to varying degrees, and as a whole look clearly distinct from both White and Black Americans - especially those with high Amerindian ancestry.

    I feel like Hispanic culture is what Louisiana creole or American culture thinks it is which is a mixture between African, European and Amerindian culture so many people at Hispanic festivies always have varying appearances from these groups in full or partially. A Mexican Amerindian, Black Dominican and White Argentinian could be at the same festival speaking in the same language and eating similar food all while identifying eachother as Latino

    I feel like you don’t know many Latinos or have any in your life

    True that whole tendency on here to portray Latin American countries as apartheid states with racial segregation rules is amusing

    In my personal observation, I've seen Latinos very open to dating whites but not so much other races. I'm betting a lot of these Latinos are thinking in terms of Latino-White relationships.

    I’ve seen so many Puerto Rican/Dominican-African American people here in NYC to know that’s not entirely true

    That's because we are partially white. Of course we would feel better dating with you guys than blacks. Black admixture are almost extinct of our DNA im 3% Sub-saharan myself.
