the black female character hooking up with a white male character plays into the whole "white male fantasy" so there's no complaints from white men there. You see all these non-white female characters with white males in various films and TV shows; but if it were the other way around with a non-white male and white female, all the white men get all up in arms. lol.

I do like how TWD TV Series and comic book series isn't afraid of having gay/lesbian or interracial relationships. I like how the writers aren't afraid to go there despite potential backlash from audiences. Being such a huge show, it is kind of surprising that there aren't more people shitting on the show for having gays, interracial relationships on there. Look at all the hate Star Wars had for having a black lead male character.
