I knew several people that are and were in different mixed relationships. One girl I knew was east indian and when she married a white person she was disowned by the family. They wanted nothing to do with her.
I got a friend shes white and married into a black family, and I knew another girl that was dating a black guy.
Some cultures it is very frowned upon for dating outside their race and religion as well as having sex before marriage, there are still some places that still do have pre arranged marriages. If you dont follow those beliefs then chances are your family will disown you as well as everyone else.
Everyone here might think it is strange, dumb and totally unbelieveable that stuff like this exists. But we werent raised in that culture. It kinda falls into the put yourself in their shoes. If you were raised with a heavy up bringing of any one religion or culture you wouldnt think of it being wrong for being told that you can not date someone outside your race or religion.
I personally dont have a problem with people of different religions or races dating. I wish all people could get past the colour of skin and look whats inside the person before passing judgement on someone just by looks but the world isnt like that.
I also know that in some states mixed couples mostly meaning a black person and a white person are not really welcome and it is unsafe to travel to them. But then again I also know some small towns that if you were not born and raised there you arent welcome in them either.
