Well you could say that like 10 years back. I guess you can say it was a concept back then. I think India still has this trend where parents arrange marriage for their kids. It is kind of wack, but world is changing and this trend is disappearing. OH YES!

Wouldn't you parents be mad if you married a white girl? A friend of mine said that it would be the case in his family.

Are you saying his parents are racist and wouldn't except a white girl? Or are you asking if they even know what a white girl is?

I'm asking if they are like that, because like I said one of my friends' parents won't accept a white girl, black girl etc.

Hell Yea. Brown parents are real picky on who you marry. If you bring a white girl home, they'll whoop your ass. They won't even let you date girls until you're ready to marry.

 

[bbwSwish]

Damn, why is that?

 

[umair]

I have no clue.

 

[Mamba]

How do you feel about that?

My parents wouldn't really care for the race, but I think she has to be Muslim. Plus the whole dating thing is whack, IMO.

I could never do that. Almost all of the girls I'm attracted to are white and preppy. I would hate not being able to date white girls. Me and my friend always go into Hollister or Abercrombie and pick up random girls.

Yeah, maybe that's why it would be so hard for me.

How can anyone resist a sexy white girl? I mean seriously...

Well, times are changing. Some of the people I know here pick themselves out a nice girl from Canada (or U.S) and end up marrying them, regardless of what thier race is. Nowadays, it's not really the parents that PICK the girl but they will suggest to their kids to go back to thier home country and pick a girl from there. My parents and I have an agreement that I can pick a girl from anywhere in the world (lol), she just has to be of my own religious background. However, that's not a problem for me because I'm into brown girls more than any other type anyway. I know some of my friends' siblings that are married to white people, asian people, etc. It's not really as forced as it used to be.

Depends on the family. Some of them (depending on thier views) might shun the marriage idea completely, while others will be reluctant at first and then slowly accept it.

Nowadays, it depends more on the parent's beliefs. I have enough friends who tell thier parents they're dating someone, but the parents are usually young in those cases. I think it's because brown people are a bit more protective of thier kids; I know for a fact that my parents are opposed to me dating because they think a girl will "discourse" my path and will take away my attention from school. I';ve dated girls, and this hasn't been the case. In fact, when I was dating my last girlfriend, my average was the highest it's ever been

.

So therefore, the "brown parents theory" is not true obviously; it depends on how well someone can balance out school and girls.

Dude, you'd really hold off being with a girl all the way until marriage? I felt bad before baout lying to my parents but common, you're growing up, you're inclined to have feelings/fall for someone. Resisting it and supressing your desires only make it worse for you psychologically.

I think brown parents KNOW and acknowledge that thier kids are dating other kids but in the back of thier minds, SEX is the big issue. They fear for thier children being sexually active. And just because they fear it, it inclines kids to try it even more. Brown parents and sex just don't go together. But, as Rusell Peters said, that is wierd as hell because India has one of the largest populations in the world, so obviously, PEOPLE ARE FU*KING!

But isn't going out against our religion?

I never knew, I went out with a girl in seventh grade.

 

[Karma]

How is going out with someone against religion? Premarital sex is against the religion but not dating (atleast as far as I know).

Isn't it against Islam?

 

[Chutney]

If you're religious, look stuff up for yourself. There are always people that will exploit those who want others to interpret things for them. And it doesn't mean anything, if you're living out someone elses philosophy. That's just from my personal experience.

I'm not sure about Islam, as far as I know in hinduism, "dating" (and it's process) isn't really against the religion. Pre-marital sex is. But with brown people, it's less about religion when it comes to dating and more about fear and keeping your kids under your control.

Well, I have gone out with a few girls before, but never really told my parents or thought about religion at the time.

I guess it's the same way you could say Beyonce is ugly? o_o

Personally I like all types of women, even though my preference is black women I wouldn't hesistate to get with a white women or any other type of women.

When I used to go to Sunday school, my teacher told me that going out, kissing, hugging, and all the crap is wrong. So therefore, I think it is against Islam.

Most brown adults say that, I'm not sure if its true though.
