Mixed marriages?

Question

How do you feel about marriage of mixed races?

I am encouraged by all the positve responses. I am the product of a mixed marriage and my children are also. There is still so much racism in the world it blows my mind. I just wanted to see the mind set of others around the country.

Answer 1

There's only one race and that's the human race. Race based on skin color is only something people made up to make one group feel superior to another... Love who you want to love = )

Answer 2

Marriage is all about creating a situation for the kids on the way. As long as both the man & the woman are good parents, why should I care if one is one color and one is another?

It's far better than having terrible parents marry who both happen to be the same race. The family is dysfunctional, the kids suffer, and they divorce before the kid is18. In America, people who marry someone because he/she is the one they're expected to marry often end up unhappy.

It's also better than seeing two same-sex people marry. I'm not saying it's "right" or "wrong" for people to have homosexual feelings. I just feel marriage is a union so that kids may be raised in the best environment possible. If you asked a kid, he/she would not say "I wish I only had a daddy and no mommy". Kids naturally desire and need both a mom and dad. The sexes are different and each has a slightly different role.

One issue anyone marrying outside their race, culture, and/or religion must deal with is how to raise the kids. Odds are the one person's values won't be exactly the same as the other. Some races/cultures have different ideas about women working, the role of the man, morals, which church to go to if any, etc. Which culture will the child be? Can both parents harmoniously both share their different cultures without any conflict? Better the couple gets these differences out in the open.

Answer 3

A mixed-marriage is a marriage between two people of different Religious Faiths.

You are asking about an interracial marriage. What is wrong with them? We are ALL children of God.

Answer 4

I am a gringo and am getting married to a sexi latina mexicana and she is the most beautiful woman in the todo mundos. The more mixed race marriages and families the less racial divisions!

Answer 5

Its just like a same raced marriage

Answer 6

I think people should marry who they love regardless of race. The only problem with that (IF its a problem) is that in a hundred years or so we will all be "coffee colored" and there will be no more races. Hey, maybe that's a GOOD thing??

Answer 7

You get children with better genes, cause in a way when we keep marrying within the same race its like crossbreeding but at a larger scale .

Answer 8

Sometimes there are cultural difficulties, my mother in law thinks certain things I do are rude, even when I am on my best behaviour. These difference can build up especially when their are also language barriers. But I am married to the love of my life, not her family, so that's mostly immaterial to our great relationship.

I think it's great. In my tri-state, metropolitan area, there are many, many ethnicities and races mixing. It's nice to see.
