independent girl SG dun understand y can't ppl accept that? btw, parn are u one of our frens? u seems to know us....
parn SG Independent girl, I don't think so...cos if I am, I should be very sad right now. I'm glad that things are working out well for the two of you. Give me a confirmation on that okie? Just need to make sure things are working out well for the both of you.
parn SG Hmm...I assume you are referring to the parents of both parties then? Well... Mostly the problem occurs on the gal's side. Gal's parents always prefers to have a son-in-law of the same race. Can think of a few reasons lah...for example, easier to communicate, same tradition, same religion, more respect, at least grandchildren must have the same shade of colours as them, and etc. Same thing can happen on the guy's side as well. But it is often easier for the guy's parents to accept rather than the gal's parents. Hahaha...I think all the gal's father love their daughter very much. Their xin gan bao bei what...so the guy need a lot of luck to pass that stage lor. If the people against the relationships are merely friends, can ignore them lah...and also none of their business anyway. But I don't think friends will care less if you have a relationship with somebody from a different race.
parn SG Hahaha...don't ask people to shut up if you are unable to contribute any advice to this topic. Your parents never teach you any manners is it?
gaoyue SG do you know mixed blood have the better chance of obtaining better genes than pure bloods, although how true is this, i don't know. maybe can use as a reason to say interracial relationships are good.
Devil1976 SG It's usually stronger for parents and grandparents due to background tradition. Many races are actually proud to be of their kind. In marrying with another race, they somehow have this mentality that it signifies that the other race has some better qualities over their own race. Hence parents (especially of the mindset mentioned above) and relatives often object against that.
Ogbunwezeh SG Actually its not the different race tat ppl against, its the difference in religion tat ppl against…
zhaozhilong SG Sheesh, how ironic can it get? Manners? Now think properly before you post. You want to talk about manners after your original post?
FireIce SG im not against this, though i personally no get involved in one b4...... parents are usually the biggest obstacle......they afraid own child might overlook some of the problems caused by cultural differences..... they have their point and the child's interest at heart.......but they shd oso respect and trust the child's choice....
parn SG I did...have you? Need to ask your parents what you should do now? I don't find my posting in anyway offending to you since it wasn't directed at you. You are the only crazy role-playing arsehole who is taking my posting personal. Scroll up and follow the thread closely.
leafygreens SG they usually have the mindset that y cant u find someone among your race? do u really have to find someone outside of your race? then theres the communication problem between the parents & the guy/gal whose does not have the same language as them, the older generation also worries about communication between diff culture & tradition practices...& another to note is that older people aka your parents tend to prefer someone their own race cause "kan de shun yan"...thats the old mindset... this only applies to diff races relationship whereby religion is not an issue...for example chinese & indian... *add-in* i think parents are more biased against people with darker colours...if their son/daughter marries a caucasian, might not be so many obstacles... if your having a relationship with a diff race with a diff religion, example you're a chinese & you're in love with a malay gal, good luck to u...u will need plenty of it. but in cases whereby even if the two parties are of the same race, diff religions can also cause conflicts...no need for me to elaborate...u all can find many cases here...
parn SG Sigh...what the hell are you doing in this forum anyway? You are incapable of offering any advice...right? Admit it! Prove me wrong by posting something related to the topic here, and I can show you how I will pick on your posting. Otherwise, get out of my face.
