[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did your parents feel about you marrying someone outside your race? Is he the only man you've ever slept with? If not, is he substantially bigger than Asian men you've slept with? If you have kids, do people make hapa comments? [/quote]

Parents were ok.  They had reservations at first because DH is Jewish, and I'm Catholic.  Well, lapsed, but parents go to Mass every Sunday.  Religion's really important to them.  They didn't know too much about Judaism.  But they looked into it and came to the conclusion that Jews are practically Catholics anyway so it's ok (don't ask).  But I was pretty headstrong about it.  I would have married anyway even if their disapproval ratings were higher.  They were extremely approving of his education levels, I remember.

He's the only man I slept with.

People do not make hapa comments.  I make hapa comments, though.  What do you mean by hapa comments?  Like nasty, racial ones?  No.  People in public sometimes ask me if my kids are mixed if it's just me with them, and I answer them, I don't find those questions mean.  Maybe a little intrusive, but they are asked in a friendly way so I answer them.[/quote]
