My friend is Asian and her family tried to force her into an arranged marriage..... she refused as she had already fallen in love with someone who happened to be white. She was told that if she continued seeing him then she would be banished from the family. She left, married James and is living happily ever after but has not spoken to her family since. Incidentally my friends says that the worst racism she has ever come across has been from people of her own race.

I also worked with a Somalian student nurse who whilst over here doing her nurse training met a non somalian man... she became pregnant and had to have an abortion as had she taken the baby back home with her she would have been stoned to death. This was in 2004!!!

They need to enter into the modern world, they're not trading goats with their neighbors any more. (except maybe in Lancashire, but they all do it there...)

Is this the same thing as arranged marriages ?

If it's traditional to force your kids to marry that's fine and dandy...

... but not here in the UK.



To bring your children up in one country but expect them to act as if they were brought up in another is profoundly cruel.

Nail ... head

My opinion of it is the same as those radical eejits who seem to want sharia law over here, if you want to live by barbarian laws, f### off to a barbarian country.

There are disturbing segregation issues my colleague has spoken of too, but lets not lose sight of the purpose of this thread. It'd be all to easy for this to deteriorate into a racism debate and I don't want that.

It is the selective coupling and hence selective breeding I am trying to bring to debate here.Again from how the women are treated perspective, if the woman doesn't drop kids very soon after marriage, the community start asking questions about fertility and again, the woman is shunned (even if it is the bloke shooting blanks, not her own infertility)!!! But again, does anyone not see this level of selective breeding is akin to a 'master race'?

But once you get over the initial shock of it all, to be fair from a 'Darwinism' point of view it actually starts to make sense. As natural selection for humans is actually largely out the window now - picking the 'cream of the crop' ourselves to breed together actually might not be such a bad idea?!?!? Perhaps we should bring that into more cultures?!?!

What is the matter with having a master race*??

*by that I mean the cream of the gene pools, not any specific colour/creed

Here's a nice re-rail for you.

Actually, it doesn't lead to a master race - conversely, it leads to recessive genetic disorders. (unless you used dna screening as part of the selection criteria)
