Mixed ethnicity and ethnic Relationships

How do these images make you feel?
Do they make you feel uncomfortable, angry, threatened or maybe even repulsed?
As we are all part of one race…the ‘human race’, it’s nonsensical to call someone a racist.
However, if you hold any negative thoughts or opinions about the types of ethnically diverse relationships shown, you could be considered xenophobic or prejudice.

We all have the right to exercise choice, if it’s only our ‘preference’ to date and marry within our own ethnicity or colour, that’s a choice.
However, if we only date and marry within our own ethnic group or colour, at the denigration of people from other ethnic groups or colours, that’s prejudice.
In saying that…those who ‘only’ date or look to marry people outside of their ethnic group or colour also display a dislike or loathing, against, none other, than themselves.
They also have deep-rooted issues which may only be helped by visits to a specialist.

Men and women being drawn together, is one of life’s most natural occurrences, irrespective of colour or ethnic background.
The urge to procreate and bring about new generations, is in the majority of us.
Relationships and marriages, irrespective of colour or ethnicity, can survive and flourish if the individuals share the same, ideals, beliefs and values.

Marriage…Never too late

Marriage…Support

Marriage…Family

Marriage…Children

The importance of sharing.

What’s your level of sharing like among the people you know or don’t know that well?
Being the individualistic creatures we are, we obviously all share on different levels.
Our levels of sharing are usually dictated by our upbringing (sticking to it or rebelling against it), our personality type, acquired education, the people we are with or the environment we find ourselves in.
Many of us find ourselves travelling on roads we don’t really want to and in jobs we were not really born to do, causing many negative and adverse effects on us.
Those negative effects usually include looking for forms of escapism or becoming selfish, causing many people to lack sensitivity to the feelings of others and therefore causing those people to withdraw from others.
