my biggest issue is the cultural/religious background. Skogafoss has an ethnicity, but she doesn't have a cultural identity within that ethnicity that she brought to the relationship. I'm not so interested in ethno-cultural pride to the point of the ethnic parades. I don't do any of my immediate familial traditions let alone ones brought by my spouse.
We're quite anti, to the point, we don't really even do traditional Thanksgiving using that week to travel overseas. Even when we didn't travel, people find it so odd that you aren't going home to see family that they insist on you coming over for a plate of turkey and stuffing.
While we don't like to participate, we do like to watch and understand. I guess it's more anthropological and sociological rooted interests than actually participation.
