[quote=Anonymous]OP why don't you call your in-laws on their racism first? Have you ever pointed out the hypocrisy/double-standard in how they view their kids' boyfriends/girlfriends and the impact of race? That is something worth asking them about: "Why are you so extra critical of the signif others of color? As long as the partner is white you don't care if they're unemployed? WHy is that?" As for the DD's new BF, I don't know if I'd go all out and say all the parents are saying, but you can certainly share your experience and say maybe it's a similar dynamic. By the way, just so you know OP, your description of your DH's sister is actually a bit judgemental too. Your description of her physical features and personality basically sound like you're saying "Hey, she's no prize, so why are the parents so picky?". Just sayin', be careful because there might be judgement flying around in this scenario from more angles than you realize.[/quote]
