That is the family's problem. Why should one hide their feelings for another person. After all they are another human being with feelings. If the family could not put such predjuces aside then they do not really represent the values of family which is caring and support. I would disavow them. Remember you tie up with your partner.. not the family ties up with your partner.[
I don't ask my families permission for who I date or befriend and if someone asked me from another ethnicity that I wanted to go out with sure why not. There are handsome awesome men in every race.

[b]I'm a liberal Asian so I don't give a damn about his ethnicity as long as he's a really sweet and thoughtful guy.. I will let my boyfriend meet my family and try to let him win them over with his thoughtfulness..
I just get tired/burnt of the Race card being thrown out there.
As much as I love my family and if they didn't approve of who I was dating,married to etc then I wouldn't wish to have them in my life anymore. They'd either like and accept who I loved and was in my life or take a roll on a rolling donut. Cause I'm the one who made my choices of who I let into my life not them.

My sons often brought woman home I didnt really think much of! But I kept my opinions to myself and I treated the woman like family anyways! The thing is I just accepted that the woman were not in my life to make me happy even though I felt they werent the right cuppa tea for my sons!

I need to apologise as I misread the thread! I was answering to not liking a person as a whole not because of colour ect! My Grandfather was aboriginal!
