There is nothing wrong with interethnic marriages. If two persons love each other, there shouldn't be anything to stop them from living together and being happy. It is not your ethnicity that makes you a person, it is you personality, with ur believes and goals. Well having a different background might add some difficulty to building a strong relationship and understanding each other. However only overcoming difficulties will help to build the strongest relationship.

To my own believe, i don't think interethnic marriage is a better option. Infact if one is not very careful, its very rear for one to create interest in likely person you have been called with maybe as your family. These can easily leads to hatred

To be honest, for me it doesn't matter to what ethic human is belonged to. At that issue, i think all depends on existence of love. If people love each other, let me ask you a question - have we any rights to judge them?

Probably, I am not so moral person to close my eyes on such conceptions as ethnicity. What do you mean by judging? Of course, society cannot forbid to someone marry (I think), but I suppose, that we are able to have opinions. If it is that you call "judge" - yes, we have rights. Love is great, but there are things which I consider more important than feelings.

[e.g. of strong ethnic nationality, happens in Russia in nowadays where russian girl are married with Tajik, Uzbek, Kyrgyz, Korean etc., because of weakness of Russian gays in whole. They have big problem with alcohol, drugs, absolute unwillingness to work.] Its simple Russian gils just do not want to connect their lifes with endangered species.

Love makes the world go around. Deny anyone of it because you want to preserve a culture is idiotic. It's logic like that, logic that puts love below anything, that leads to racism and division between people's differences. The human race will probably not ever be united until we all share one culture and one race. Don't like it? Want your culture to always exist until the end of times? Tough shit. Love, prosperity and unity are more important then your history. They are more important then everything.

Yes I don't like it. Human race is not ready to unite. Not in that way and not in next centuries. Tell this to native americans - indians. Love, prosperity and unity are very subjective things. What for one is love, for another can be perversion. Prosperity for one can be degradation for another. Unity for one - slavery for another. Western countries (cultures) frequently try to impose their values.

Human race is not ready to unite. It won't be ready as long as there are idiots who think that people shouldn't be able to consummate their love with a marriage for this and that reason... if two people love each other, denying them marriage is wrong. Period. Culture is not more important then love. Nothing is. Tell this to Native Americans. Something tells me you don't know anything about what modern Native Americans really believe. Do you really think that they automatically believe that love isn't important? You realize that makes you presumptuous cad. Love, prosperity and unity are very subjective things. Not really... you talk as if people don't generally agree on what's right and wrong. We have humanitarian laws passed by the United Nations you know... as in, the entire world agrees on what's right and wrong. What for one is love, for another can be perversion. And the people whom find normal love a perversion are very few in number, and the people whom actually have perverse love are even fewer in number. Prosperity for one can be degradation for another. Prosperity - A successful, flourishing, or thriving condition; good fortune. Degrade - To lower in dignity or estimation; bring into contempt. These words are nothing alike. You're full of shit. Anyone who thinks a peaceful, prosperous society as being degrading is a lunatic. Unity for one - slavery for another. These are two complete different words. Unity is voluntary, and slavery is involuntary. You really don't have any idea what you're talking about, do you? Western countries (cultures) frequently try to impose their values. Blah, blah, blah, the West does this and that, blah blah. Did I ever say the West should impose itself on people, asshole? No. I said that people should be allowed to marry each other for love no matter what their background, race, religion, color, creed, culture, or whatever is. Denying anyone of love is what's truly perverted, degrading, and enslaving.

Human race is not ready to unite. Not in that way and not in next centuries. To be ready for something equates to the capacity to do that something. And even if we do not have the capacity to unite globally just yet, we are barely a heartbeat away. We can send vast amounts of information around the globe almost instantaneously. There is virtually nowhere on the world that can't be reached within 24 hours. All of the necessities of life and just about any creature comfort you can imagine could be transported anywhere, excluding political and economic factors. No AlikhanK, we are pretty much ready, its just that many people aren't willing. Why? Misplaced pride, fear, inability to change, perceived loss of identity. All of which are irrational and detrimental to our survival as a species. Tell this to native americans - indians. If another culture hadn't placed themselves above the Indians and callously took everything they had, the Natives wouldn't be in the horrible situation that they are in. This enforced sense of division you advocate is what nearly killed them off, and has wiped out many other cultures completely. Prosperity for one can be degradation for another. True, which is why we should strive for prosperity for all, if possible. Western countries (cultures) frequently try to impose their values. HUMANS frequently try to impose their values. Do you know anything about what the Hans have done in China? Not to mention countless examples in Africa. Once again, blurring the boundaries, removing the differences and acting in the best interests of the entire human race would make this much less of a concern. Conversely, maintaining the walls between us all will never allow the problem to be solved.

when we talk about just two persons I agree. but I am talking about ethnicities. As it was mentioned earlier, there are real big problems for some ethnoses. According to Andrey Kuraev, a professor of Moscow Theological Academy, "...actually, interethnic marriages - are form of genocide of Russian people. When our women marry Caucasians, they enrich their own genes by other nations. And the Russian nation is weakening!" I am not Russian, nevertheless, I am completely agree with this statement
595 days ago | Side: negative
That's fucking stupid. If anything marrying another ethnicity would strengthen genes because there is less likelihood of repeated genes, offering a wider selection of variables in the evolution of the embryo. Sounds like a bunch of bullshit on so many levels. What do you or these quack professor care who other people marry? Wtf does it have to do with you or that silly charlatan?
595 days ago | Side: affirmative
Genocide: deliberate destruction of a racial group. I am quite sure that anyone who marries a Russian does not have ulterior motives to decimate the Russian population. Ethnicity is the product of a living in isolated, separate parts of the world. It's actually a hindrance to our genetic health. Culture (which is what I presume those against are trying to argue) however is a behaviour, and will not be lost in intermarriage. It may change, but culture is dynamic, it was going to change regardless.

I care about my people, about my brothers and sisters. I care about next generations. We have to talk not only about genes, but also about traditions, outlook, language etc. It is clear that some ethnoses have stronger traditions than others and they just suppress them. Naturaly.

If you're using "brothers and sisters" in a broad sense, those of other ethnicities are just as much your brothers and sisters as those of your own. And marrying someone by choice in no way inherently means you or they must abandon whatever silly traditions you have a hard on about. And I see nothing "clear" about anything you've said. Sounds like the ramblings of a racist with a low IQ actually. If you want to marry someone of your own ethnicity go ahead. But again, it's none of your business what other people do.

There are lots of advantages of such marriages. International marriages can reduce the gap that exists in both cultures. International marriages are great opportunity to understand another culture in a very objective way. Moreover, kids from two different backgrounds can learn about more cultures when they are younger and, as they become older, they will not have bias-opinions and pre-determined prejudice. They will be open to more new experience and idea, yet be more educated in worldly thoughts. They have more things to choose from as they develop into adults giving them a variety of life-styles. Understanding other cultures can demolish some negative stereotypes. Wedding are supposed to be a celebration of the joining of two people, two families, and the beginning of a new life and family. It is a big step into a new life. That is why the choice of future spouse is one of the most important decisions of life.

Of course, before the wedding, you should know that there are some difficulties that may be some misunderstanding.

In my opinion, there is no difference between people, i mean all of us are the same, if one person has black skin, and second one has white, what's the matter? It is not important to think about people's ethnicity. It is known that, people should choose te partner, whom they will love. Also interethnic marriages is good to understand other people (other ethnicity, nation, etc.). The most important thing is not what color your future husband, but what kind of person is he. That's why, people have to choose by themsleves who will they get married.

I don't think, that nation is the most important quality in such relationships. We live in 21-st century. If 2 persons love they will be able to understand each other and find a decision, which are available for both. We ourselves choose our path in life and decide what traditions to follow and what religion to manifest. However, I can agree, that people with same nation probably will be closer to each other. They will not have to explain each other simple things in everyday life, they will have less differences, because of that less difficulties. But despite everything inter-ethnic marriages are possible and many couples have a big chance of a successful relationship) Because the main quality of successful and happy marriage is character, respect, love and other spiritual qualities)

May still be some may think that the shift of blood is wrong. And if you Kazakh, for example, while your husband is Russian you can not give your child exactly the Kazakh education. Once married, this can cause problems. Perhaps, for example, you've been taught to do so and said so, but your husband was raised very differently. On this basis, misunderstandings can occur.

So what you are talking about then, are sentimental, intangible values. Not something that actually provides any real gain for the group in question, rather something that serves only to shore up walls of division between two cultures. My question remains: Why is this division necessary? History- that's not going anywhere. It is available in books, and one does not have to be a part of the culture involved to appreciate it. Mentality- This pretty much barely exists anyway. Most markers of some kind of "ethnic mentality" are exaggerated or damaging to the group in the first place. Every group has its range of people, its alphas and omegas, fighters and pacifists, the intuitive and the rational. And this spectrum provides flexibility and potential. To try to generalize some set mentality in any group is not only unrealistic and potentially bigoted, its successful implementation would weaken the abilities of the whole. Traditions- Traditions that provide a positive utilitarian function in a certain set of circumstances will be maintained or rediscovered by groups who are in those circumstances, or will be replaced by something even more useful. Those that provide no real function are okay to lose over time. Societies and cultures change over time anyway. Those that don't either get wiped out or fall behind the rest of the world. And trying to establish a bulwark between themselves and others can really cut off opportunity to advance in step with the changing world.
