Would your parents care if you dated or married someone outside your race?

[tamar braxton]

Is it a big deal to them?

[Kazuma Kiryu]

Nopeeeee

[Hanah-]

Yes, they would.

My mom always says things like 'don't bring any ching chang chong to our house'. My dad is a rather racist person,so of course he would mind if I did bring home someone who's Asian or black.

[HvD]

My parents are very traditional, but they are quite open about relationships.  They don't care who I marry, just as long as I'm happy and... have kids lol  They really want to see grandchildren.  

[Leo's Candy Jelly Ho]

My parents would prefer if we stay within our race but they wouldn't oppose going outside our race

[l u n n a]

Nope, just as long as I'm happy being with them.

[Scribbles]

Nope, They don't care.

[SATANIC SLUT]

my mom wants me to marry someone asian

 

what if i don't want to tho

[Neith]

Nope. Actually, the studies and job is more important to them than the race. 

[Bu2tyful4nia]

Nooope, they don't care.

[BubbleGumPop]

Nope, They don't care.

[Cl0v3rÂ¥Î]

Very much so. 

[pretyme494]

nope!..

[HYPER+BALLAD]

Nope.

[Nurse XIA]

Not at all.

If it's Caucasians, yeah they don't like it... If it's among Asians (Well, Asians are of many different ethnic races too), then no...

 

I think it's more on like how they'd know they would rarely see me if I marry an American or European... I mean I live in SEA, unless my spouse chose to live here with me and not decide to live in his country of origins...

 

Coz I have 2 cousins who married an Australian and a Frenchman and they returned back here only like twice a year to see their parents...

 

My parents have this thinking that it's easier for me to visit them more often if I marry an Asian, better still one living in my country...

 

My mom used to always tell us sisters (we are 3 girls in the family, no brothers) not to marry Caucasians with that reasoning, not anything racist...

 

Since we're a close-knit family, my parents still expect frequent family gatherings even after all of us have our own family... And of course they'd like to see their grandchildren often too...

[mglsts]

No. Not like they would have a choice in it.

[denizen mars]

My mom cares about whether the people I date are respectable and honest, not their race...

[anh.]

no

 

actually, they'd prefer it if i introduce them to a Vietnamese or a Caucasian. apparently they won't like it if i bring home a black person, Hispanic, Indian, or anyone who came from the Middle East

[Sonflowers]

Not really, though something tells me they'd prefer if I dated someone my own race. 

They generally focus on whether someone is intelligent, polite, respectful. 

Which works since that is what I look for as well. lol 

 

NB: I'm black but have dated both inside and outside of my race. 

[Popero44]

Not really.

[tomcat]

Nope.

[Good People]

No

[shineerox]

Yes they would. Actually, since I'm Asian and there's a ton of different Asian cultures, they'd care if I dated anyone who wasn't from the same country as them. Kinda sad really...

 

I don't think they'd oppose it, but they wouldn't be too comfortable with the relationship because they're so used to a monoracial(?) family that having someone with a different background would be a little shocking and like I said, uncomfortable. Not that I'd care too much tbh. I'm open to all races.

(Although, I do have a preference for Asians mainly because I want to raise my kids with the general "Asian standards". I think it'd be harder to do it if my spouse was of a different race.)

[blowinfartbubbles]

Nope, as long as he's rich.
