My first husband was maori. (New Zealand native).No big deal. His family treated me with respect. Sadly my family were not so embracing due to racial stereo typing. Did I care? Not a bit. We made a beautiful child and although he passed away, we found love.

Good for you...

What are your views on this?


the question is too broad a topic?
what's your definition and separation of race? is inter racial synonymous with intercultural?
is it based on skin color? social stratus? are we taking into account laws of a particular part of the world?
the question is too broad and vague.

in any case, we can all give you an opinion, yet it means nothing because only the couple is living their relationship.
for me, a relationship is about being with a person you're compatible with. a friend and companion. where you have ideals and values in common. where you can respect each other if you have differences. where those differences don't make anyone superior or inferior. where you come to each other as an individual and grow together as a couple and/or family.

Never been in one before. My race is filled with so much sexy, beautiful, single women that it is hard to look outside the race

I look at this as does it really matter who you fall in love with? You just never know who she will be. When you look into ones eyes and there is a spark of a new born life that you have not felt before. Why throw it away because of what others may think. Just saying

After my observation...

I've come to the conclusion that quite a number of minglians have no idea of the meaning of RACE

they often confuse it with culture, religion, species, skin colour and what not

Maybe i should post a

WHAT DOES RACE MEAN

Sincerely,

That is is insulting to say, you just insulted the intelligence of most of the people who took the time to post on your (a new comer) thread.

"I've come to the conclusion that quite a number of minglians have no idea of the meaning of RACE "

I tried to explain this to you in my first post to you... here.

"Please define ' race ' & how many ?

Because the governments & the media & people themselves individually, all define it differently.

Examples:
East Indians, Koreans, Chinese are classified as ASIANS

Yet many say, ORIENT for Chinese & Mongolian

Americans, North Europeans, Southern Europeans, Anglo, Saxon & Anglo Saxon etc.. are usually considered WHITE.

Spaniards from Spain, Brazilian, Mexican, Cubans etc...are usually considered HISPANICS

BLACK --- American, African, Jamaican, European, Cuban etc..

NATIVE - Island, American, Pacific Islands, Canadian, Australian etc..

Yet...NONE of these groups consider themselves the same or refer to themselves the same, & most do not even look similar or have the same language or culture.

If we use RELIGON as race... that is at least 4 more major groups & sub groups.

IMO - It would be great if people could identify themselves how they want to & not checking off a box of LIMITED choices on a piece of paper.

Who cares who dates or marries who?
I only care who I am attracted to & who am I am not ? And who I have things in common with & who I do not.

In 2015, I think many people are only concerned about division (which race categories are, imo), is when they want to have children.
When I wanted children, I wanted them to look like me & have my faith, my culture... so I chose a guy who would not conflict with that.
Yes.. I wanted his DNA
Now... I am done breeding, sooooo.. it is LESS an issue. "
--------
But YOU missed the point & my being facetious & the sarcasm of others & that we have seen a million of these threads, which do NOT promote harmony, but rather, makes us think." Oh no.. just another newcomer, preoccupied with race, trying to tell us how we should think & maybe get a green card"

You obviously didn't want any honest opinions anyway, & there are many on here. But keep the thread going & reaffirm our first impression.


Good luck & good bye. waving

I'm just curious ure talking about interracial relationship but I guess you're a Muslim for all I know u must marry a man with your same religion and being in the dating site is not allowed in your religion. Just wonderin'?! But I guess it's better if u ask us our opinion about arrange marriage.

I think so much has been said on this subject world wide. That is comes down to what the two people in the relationship feel.

In my family with cousins, aunts, uncles, grandchildren, sister in laws, brother in laws, I sometimes think we are the united nations. lol

When two people realize they love each other and are wanting to commit to each other that is all that matters.
The world doesn't really matter.




As long as two souls are happy together ,others should nt dictate their version just because they feel like talking something .its personal choice and individual independence

I am one of those "minglians" that doesn't see a problem with race. That said... Cultural differences can be very hard to overcome. Each has been part of a culture different from the other since birth. It is difficult for them to learn quickly each others culture to a point where a comfortable balance is built. If they can survive that cultural melding they will do ok... if not they will have constant strife and misunderstandings.

Quite agree, good point
Race isn't so hard to overcome
Culture is a bit more difficult yes
