No, it is not wrong at all. If you two love each other, then be with each other. I only want to give you a warning. When my wife and I got married, neither set of parents approved. (We are both of the same race, but both had dated inter racially.) My family has not spoken to us since since the wedding. We have tried to reestablish relations with them, but they will not give in. My wife's family spoke to us, but it was mostly screaming and fighting. We have now been married over 40 yr. Our families missed out on their grandchildren and are now missing out on their great-grandchildren.. Sooooo... if you marry your girlfriend, be prepared to lose your family. If we could do it all over again, we would get married again. But we would have the kind of ceremony we wanted instead of trying to please the parents and have the kind they thought was proper.

That pretty much solidifies my stereotype of Asian mothers (jk).
Seriously, some parents find race to be important. While it is ok to have ethnic preference for taste in the other sex, perpetuating stereotypes is dangerous. The younger generation should learn to look beyond ethnicity. That said, there are significant cultural differences which can be a problem for families. It is important to realize your mothers fears while ignorant, aren't completely unfounded... different cultures have different expectations from relationships.
Example: I offended a latin girl once because I insisted on washing my own dishes after a meal instead of letting her do it. We were both trying to be polite and it kind of backfired.
My mother was really mean to my girlfriend when I was 21, but we had a talk, set bounderies and expressed expectations. Things went a bit better after that, although it is sometimes difficult.
In short:
1)Look beyond the bigotry of your parents.
2)There are cultural differences you have to be aware when dating (regardless of race). The more distant the cultures, the more aware and sensitive you have to be.
3)Talk to your mother about the relationship and how you expect her to treat your girlfriends.

I know the way you think! I am relationship a core jap man and im chinese language myself. My father and mother HATED the inspiration that i'm relationship anybody out of my race. Honestly, its only a tradition factor. Black men and women to asians are like poison, hate to mention. they believe that another race except different asians are ok. I discovered that a few of my household discovered to take delivery of my bf. Even in the event you move marry her at present. It will likely be YEARS or virtually certainly not, relying on how cultural your father and mother are, earlier than they may be able to take delivery of your lady and long term kids. Just pronouncing, Dont do something till you spot a mild difference for your father and mother perspective in the direction of this field. thats while you recognize that they are going to come round in the end.

No. Whatever makes you happy is all that should matter. Your mother is stereotyping. Not all african-american women are that way. There are plenty of white girls that do the same. I am not sure of your race...unfortunatly, not many of them around where I live. You just do whatever you feel is right in your heart.

Tell your mother she knows nothing of blacks. I am a black woman with a college degree and I don't have babies around the world. She is stereotyping. She needs to understand us before she knock us. So marry the girl if that is what you want. Obviously the girl you are involved with don't have babies around the globe.
