is it wrong to marrie out of your race and why?

Question

i want to lnow this one please?

Answer 1

No it is not if you love the person. My mother is black and my step-father is white but it is about the love and nothing else.
I know that some people think that it is but they are just close minded fools. I also know that some people only want outside of their own race and hopefully that is because they are attracted to those people and not because that they think that there is something wrong with all the people of there race.

Answer 2

No it is not wrong, however it can be more difficult. My Father (who is a very kind and loving man) advised me when I was young and going on a date with a Man of another race. He said that this guy might be wonderful but before considering marriage we needed to discuss our cultural background. It is hard enough to make a marriage work between 2 people of the same race...and though not impossible it is more difficult to hold together a marriage where you have 2 good but very different cultures to mix together. So if you do marry outside of your race be prepared for a rocky road but you can do it if you choose to. Just talk about your differences in depth to make the transition easier.

Answer 3

There is nothing wrong. I am marrying out of my own race too. It is the differences in our races that make our marriage so much more exciting. I am a Chinese living in New York and my wife is mixed Irish/Hispanic from Texas. Because of my wife, I got a chance to try the authentic mexican cooking; because of me, my wife got a chance to try the authentic Chinese cuisine. When I was growing up, my parents took me to a lot of different places. My wife has never been to another other places outside of Texas other than Vegas. But because of me, I have the honor to take my wife to many different places that she has never been to, for example, Statue of Liberty, Niagara Falls, Corning (the place where they Corningware), Finger Lakes, Boston, NY city, Chinatown, Flushing, Gettysburg, and many other places. I am taking my wife to Hong Kong (the place where I am originally from) and we will be touring Beijing with my parents in the summer. I am excited about this trip because my wife has never been to that part of the world. Our lives are greatly enriched because of our differences.

I truly believe that #1 - you can't help who you are attracted to or who you fall in love with
#2 - any two consenting adults who love eachother have a right to do so and to be together.

This is where my concern lies - as adults - you are making a choice - and you are aware that sometimes that choice may lead to uncomfortable ( though unfortunate) situations of racial tension/remarks/etc. But as adults you are prepared for this and usually able to handle is, because you love your spouse. However, the children you may have are what concerns me. Not that you wouldn't love your children - but that there are, unfortunately cruel people in this world who just refuse to except anything out of their "norm". Children can be victims of this. I know this because my girlfriend, who is white, had a child whose father is black. She is a single mom, and lives in a predominately (if not completely) white rural area. Her son has endured years of racial remarks, slurs, threats, etc. He had to change school districts 3 times, the 3rd finally being in a suburb, meaning that my girlfriend had to move away from her family for the sake of her child being "accepted". It's a horrible thing - and no matter how we try to say that we are all equal - there are those jerks out there that have superiority complexes.

Answer 5

Wrong? Absolutely not. Why would it be wrong to marry someone you love. Although society doesn't neccessarily accept interracial marriages but I think it is a bold step for couples who look past the lines and accept love in any color or language. There will be rough times but if you stay strong with your love one, I believe anything is possible. Good luck!

Answer 6

No it is not wrong to marry out of ones race. marriage is an institution ordained by God and not by man. and when God ordained marriage in the bible, he didn't say only people from same race should get married to each other. in fact we are all equal in the sight of GOD.What really matters is LOVE and the marriage should be built on the right foundation.

Answer 7

i lately changed into attending to comprehend on Marriage regulations in the U. S.. Richard and Mildred Loving, the first interracial couple, to strive against the Virginia preferrred courtroom in 1958 for the right to be married in america of a even as it changed into nevertheless unlawful because, in the precise words of the presiding decide, blacks marrying whites threatened "racial hygiene and the organic order of factors in accordance to God’s will, who frowned upon race blending in the former testomony”. The scriptures in question are Ezra 9:2 the position the Christian God reported those who took overseas different halves corrupted "the holy seed." And in 10:2-3, 10-12 Ezra tells the adult men that they ought to go away their different halves of yet another race EVEN the children produced in the union or be punished. there is also one in Nehemiah 13:25-27 the position God punished his human beings for taking different halves from different countries. it really is scary how even as human beings believe a e book is God's direct word it provides them license to curve issues to their liking and help their prejudice. Now they could say their racism is "God-inspired".

Answer 8

No. It's wrong to marry out of your species. So if you plan to marry a horse or a cow or an ape, then that's wrong. If you plan on marrying a human of a different race, then that's OK.

Answer 9

I married out of my race and I am perfectly happy. It does open your eyes, though, to the prejudices facing your spouse. I am white and my husband is black. Sometimes, when he is frustrated by blatant racism at his workplace, he comes home and asks me why white people do this and that. I always tell him that he is talking to the wrong white person, obviously, since I don't share those racist views.

Answer 10

Are you planning on marrying an animal? If not, then no. We are all of the human race. Love places no bounds on who it reaches. If the person loves and respects you, then go for it.
