My cousin did unfortunately to a white English, we do not acknowledge her existence anymore. Her Pakistani parents were furious, he even changed his religion for her but its wrong to disobey your parents. I would not.

Unfortunately and I am a little sad to read your comment,you are displaying your own kind of racism. You cant claim to be on the receiving end of anything if you choose your life path on certain principles. But if you do discriminate on grounds of race then...but I'm sure you know that. Your and any other parents have a perfect right to their life choices but no-one can absorb such ideas into their own lifestyle and claim that they are 'victims'. They perpetuate steoreoypes.
My own response to your question is tht of course I would consider such an option if that is where my life choices led me.

Everything is fair in love and war. Love knows no bounds. So far so good. But such marriages do not last too long. After marriage, love becomes secondary as u have other issues before u where difference of opinion is bound to be. That brings lot of differences and then finally bitterness. Such marriages then fail and end in divorce. It's not necessary that every true love should end in marriage. Example of Imran Khan (ex Pakistani cricket captain) is before u. In case of ur cousin that may not happen because he is in U.K. and he has accepted their way of life. But in U.K. there is no such thing like ever lasting love. If there is no love what's the fun in stretching a marriage. Among white people, marriage is not taken too seriously. Marriage as an institution is dying there. I saw there more partners and less married couples. They feel more insecure in marriage as they themselves do not know how long it would last. In case of divorce they stand to lose more as such they like to stay free as partners only and bear children. Don't talk of religion about them. Even Christianity does not permit children out of wedlock but they are there.

So what is she loved that person? why should she have to scarf ice her love to keep the parents from being angery? If she loved him good for her. I don't get how you would spend the rest of ur life with someone u might love or have to love. They must have been made for each other. like i can't comprehend that. and yeah i know what u mean about disowning her cuz i am Indian and we have strict rules against that too, which i think are stupid. i think if u love someone then marry them.
and people why so many racist comments?

I would. I'm of Asian descent but I am also an American because I was born in the U.S. I am attracted to Caucasian girls and even if my parents don't accept it, I dare defy them. I am only cruel to be kind. I want to show that race does not matter in this time and hopefully my children one day will live in a world with less discrimination. Dr. King's dream lives on in our generation.
Besides your cousin is not wrong in my opinion, I'm Asian and respect to the elders and parents is a big thing but I take in my own beliefs as an American.

Sure, people are all people. That's one of the basic principles of Western civilization and democracy. Her parents aren't the ones marrying him, she is, so it's her business. If they didn't want their children to mix with English people, here's a novel idea: Don't live in England. What's the point of living there if you don't want anything to do with the country you live in?

I know the stigma behind middle eastern customs but in the modern age we need to learn to accept attraction beyond skin tone and heritage. I think that racism doesn't have very many selling points and it may be healthier to marry somebody with distant genes. It wouldn't bother me.
