I've got a white man and a black woman in an are-they-or-aren't-they relationship (they're mischievous and love to keep people guessing ). Nowadays, most people would maybe look twice and then have no problems with it, but what about in my time period? Would it have treated as a case of "Why do you want her/him for a lover" and left at that? Would it be considered a minor kink? Or would would it be considered really sick? Does her being a free black make a difference? If ethnicity matters, he's Irish and she's French. Thanks!
