[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]18:57, we can't deny there is potential for "cultural discord" with an inter-racial marriage. Witness the thread where at least a few Black women declared they'd be clutching their pearls should their sons decide to marry White women.

OTOH, some in-laws are just going to be assholes no matter what and race is a perfect excuse for some varieties of assholes.

I'll fess up to having grown up in an area where the only White girls that dated Black guys were getting back at their (usually quite racist) parents. Now I see interracial relationships that are based on mutual respect and love -- and so my opinion has (hopefully) changed to be more accepting of interracial marriage.

19:21, I'm not sure your disagreement with inter-racial marriages is as private as you'd like to think. I suspect when you run into an interracial couple, they have to be "twice as good" in order to pass your muster -- you'll get annoyed with them more quickly than a couple that is your race.

And you did offer to explain your reasoning against inter-racial marriage. It makes you personally uncomfortable. That's ok. Other posters here are uncomfortable with your views. [/quote]

No, I didn't offer to explain (nor will I). I gave the pp advice on how to handle future discussions when a contrary viewpoint is taken (ask questions, rather than attack and insult). In now way did I offer to explain my position (given the tone of this thread, do you *really* think it will be read with an open mind)?. [/quote]
