HokeyReligions Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 Cultural maybe? Religion maybe? Racial history? Geography? Politics? If a person, or a group of people are opposed to interracial marriage - so what. They don't have to marry outside their race. If some choose to do so they need to be strong about it. Back in the 1950's it was a scandel and some couples didn't last because of the pressure of the society - but some did and then more and more couples of different races got together and stayed together. The culture of America embraces "rebels" at the same time that it fears them. Some cultures don't have the individual power to change their governments for fear of severe punishment. I imagine that will change globally over the decades. Link to post Share on other sites
Joseph Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 But, why are black women and Asian men relatively shunned in the dating game? It's not just in the USA, but I notice these patterns in Canada, Australia and Western Europe too. Black men and Asian women tend to be more in demand compared to their gender counterparts.

mjk Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 Hey! This is a touchy subject here. Two and a half years ago my former wife and I adopted our daughter. She was one day old when we received her. We both love her and I will always be there for her. So what? Well... My daughter is African-American. That sounds weird to say it that way because when I look at her I see her, her smile and beauty as a young girl, not the color of her skin. The story behind adopting her is way too much to say here and I know it contributed to my break-up because we rec'd her as a foster-child and when she was "up" for adoption the county wanted to take her from us. We fought then tooth and nail for her and ended up spending over 17 thousand dollars in the process. I argued then as I will now... I look at her I see her. period. No, I am not not color blind. I am her father. The issue of "race" so much bothers me because it is due to social ignorance and nothing else. Want an example? When we were all together my former wife and I were shopping, pretty crowded store, I had my daughter in my arms and Mom was down the isle aways...she wanted "Mommy". I said to her within earshot of a few people, "okay, let's go get Mommy". Damn if every freakin' head in the place turned to see who "Mommy" was. I respect people's origins and we do everything we can for her development, ethnically, culturally, and morally. We are ALL Americans. Why we have to "pre-title" in front of that I don't know... I know we are talking about something a little different here but anytime I hear something about "race" the hair on the back of my neck raises up... I hope the "culture" of America wakes up soon.
