Arranged marriages - Master race

If the breeding is too 'close', then yes, it will cause genetic disorders. But the pool is pretty big ...

I can see this could be an issue with the current way as the community's people are coupled from are pretty 'tight' ... it was described to me in terms of 'villages' ... it is indeed not going to be long before you are marrying your 'daddys brother' and have 6 toes!!!

It is true, you do need to keep throwing in a bit of 'muck' every now and then ... which is where people like me might get lucky!!

I believe that you have to be part of such cultures / families to understand such things. So here is my 2p

People belonging in minorities such as Pakistanis, Indians, Jews, Blacks, believe that they should only marry people from their own race as this creates less problems in the day to day family life AND obviously you are marrying someone from your own race which makes things more likeable as you are keeping things sort of in the family

Now!! By minorities doesn't mean that they are really less in numbers or disadvantaged to another race BUT this is how they feel and that is what they do. For example, Asians in Birmingham are more than white people hence not a minority BUT this is how they feel. It's the difference of what is deemed as the norm - which in the UK people consider the norm to be white......similarly as in Greece is white Christian orthodox.

Have fun discussing it but at the end of the day comes down to "how hard a young person can stamp their foot on the floor" and be different.

It's not pleasant when you are cut off from your family, similarly though if you are in a constant war with them

What OP is describing is NOT an arranged marriage. It's a forced Marriage.

So much to say on this subject and so little point - no doubt the "R" word will be bandied about by those who have never been east of Milton Keynes or have a vested interest in these things continuing.

Folk from the 3rd world do have very different attitudes from those in "our" world for the very good and understandable reasons that to survive they simply can't be Liberal Democrat Yoghurt Knitters - and this manifests itself in all manner of "Weird Sh#t" much of which dates from the Dark Ages or before - and giving someone a Visa or Passport cannot fundamentally change their views anymore than doing so to old Whitey will in reverse......and de facto encouraging folk to live within their own communities and raise the next generations within is so dumb as to be nigh on unbelievable.....it's not immigration, it's Colonisation by rival tribes staking a claim to their own areas....of course a certain irony to that given the Brit History abroad and the Expat "communities" on the Costa del Chip Shop

I will admit that my views are coloured by experiances related to my late Missus (and her family) who hailed from the 3rd world - albeit not in a Muslim country.

If anyone had tried to force the Missus into being raped by a cousin she would have cut their b#llocks off. Literally.....and then got serious. ("Knife no good" - "why?" - "Handle no strong" - "Huh?" - "stab one time no good" - "why?" - "angry" - "arrrr" - "must do many time" ).

Racism? Folk wanna go East of Milton Keynes to really understand what that term means........and often as not it is also directed at old Whitey - and has very little to do with Skin Colour.



Religion???!!!............

They'd be one of mine

IIRC the origin of arranged marriages was to ensure that power bases remained in certain families wthin communities and then this is extended within the cast system. Although many have stated that this is culture and not religion it is my opinion that they are intrinsically linked. This is why you find that in very relligous communities which are in the minority in any country, city, area etc.. they tend to marry within their own community. This partly due to maintaining and preventing the dilution of the minority, but more over (again IMHO) The very relligous could not entertain having someone in their family who is not relligous or of a different faith.

We must remember that we too use to practice this arranged marriage upto the late victorian age. The notion of marrying for love to who we want is only a recent phenomina.


While I hate the thought of arranged marriages it is not against the law to ostricise a member of a community for going against your unwritten rules. We live in a free country and they have the right to practice their culture within the laws of the land.

I live 15 miles east of MK and I haven't a scooby wtf you're on about.
Bedford, where I hail from, is the most cosmopolitan town in the UK. We have at least one family from every nation on this planet living here - my family are accepted as the largest Maltese tribe in the area. Everyone gets on pretty well, we don't experience racism and race hate crime here as many other communities do.

In the town centre we have Muslims living alongside Sikhs, Hindus, West Indians and a huge Italian community as well as all the rest, everyone gets along well, and the immigrant population mixes well with the indigenous white community. If you look through our local rag you'll often see a white lad marrying an asian girl, or vice versa. It's not uncommon to see white/Italian and black/asian teenagers walking arm in arm through town and I'm bloody glad of it too.

If you want to see real racism in action, go a bit further east, to Norfolk or Suffolk. I was almost shunned at work when I lived in Norwich once, because I was foolish enough to mention the fact that I'm 3/4 Maltese. The level of ignorance shown by my colleagues defied belief, they treated me as if I ate freshly roasted babies for breakfast.

I'm not a supporter of arranged marriages, I think they belong in another time and not in our society. The practice of forcing young girls to go abroad 'on holiday' only to marry them off is a terrible thing, but there is little we can do with the current generation, it's up to those girls who live here now to change things as and when they have children of their own.

Harrassment, intimidation? neither one particularly legal, and have seen a few cases of this.
