Would you marry a person of colour or someone of another race?

Question

or you do not feel comfortable, because you feel that you would not have anything in common culturely?

Answer 1

If I was in love and we had shared interests.

Answer 2

I am married to someone of a different race. Before we were married we had different cultures of course. I didnt care because I loved her even if some stuff I didnt agree with. After we got married our cultures kind of blended together. Now we have a beautiful little girl and the only race issues we have is with some of her family and some of my family and of course sometimes the eyes that seem to stalk us when we are in public only because they are racist. I love my wife and love and respect the culture she puts into my life. It doesnt matter the color or culture. If you really love that person you dont care about that stuff. We are all human just look a little different and live a little different. Who says 2 people with different skin and cultures couldnt come together and make beautiful children (like my little girl :) ) And with things in common, we have alot in common. No less than any other marriage or relationship. I love my wife and her family. I couldnt think of anyone better for the mother of my child :)

Answer 3

I would like to think that love conquers all. It is a very romantic notion. However, I do feel that sometimes people's cultures can be too different to live together comfortably. It would, for me, just depend on what race and whether or not I felt comfortable merging my culture with theirs.

Answer 4

That is a very strange question, when you speak of race, I realise that you are totally unaware that 'race' consists of countless numbers of humans, constantly dividing their race by marriage and partner unions. The so called white race has been diluted down from all over the world, more so, than the coloured race! We are a creamy chocolate mix! So we'd better get used to it! Have a good day.

Answer 5

I'd marry someone of a diffrent race than me, but not of a diffrent culture/income bracket.

I see an inter-cultural marrage as very likely to end in divorce. we'll probibly have diffrent expectations of eachother. Is he going to expect to send half our income abroad to support his family? Is he going to assume I'm made of money and make childish purchases and even not want to work? Is he going to expect me to cook and do housework? Is he going to prefer a bay boy to a girl? Does he really love me or is he a gold digger? Is he eventually going to want to move back to his home country?

I'm not willing to sacrifice my values, and I see many things, such as gender equality, as apsoloute truths. So yeah, I dont care what colour his skin is, or where he was born, as long as what we believe and expect are the same.

Oh, and also I dont think I'd marry someone with a dorky accent.

Answer 6

Hello dear!

Till some years ago I wouldn't get marry a person from another race, not speaking my language, of different religion, etc.
Now, since I feel as citizen of the world and all people as brethren, ...

Answer 7

I can assure you....race or ethnic origin, has NOTHING to do with love....I am a German married happily to an Iraqui arab woman, ....for 36 years...and still happy..
Again, it has been a very much debated and discussed issue, but I tgink that we can fall in love with any member of the human species with one thing ion common:....love.
You dont need elaborated explanations for that...
Good luck----

Answer 8

I don't feel I have that much in common with my OWN culture (I don't watch sports, believe in god(s), or do much of what the typical guy does) so it wouldn't be the main issue, by far.

Whether it could be successful would depend on her and how she dealt with it.

Answer 9

I have no problem with it. There will be cultural differences, but you're not going to have everything in common no matter who you marry.

Answer 10

ofc i do..i dont care about colour..i dont care about race..if i love him i will marry .him...the race and the colour are not important for me..the most important is to be a good understanding between us..to can count on him every time i need something...to be near me in the bad times and good times...

Thats what i think

Answer 11

i think thats the way things are naturally unfolding in this world anyway...for different cultures and ethnicities to integrate with one another on different levels...i think the only kind of person who would answer "no" to this question is a racist...i think an inter-racial/cultural marriage is interesting and challenging and makes others around you think...why not, i say...
