Re: Pakistani-American or Pakistani Girl
***I do not think there is anything narrow minded about wishing to marry someone from your own cultural background or ethnicity.
Education does not equate denying one's cultural norms or practices. Marriage in itself is a huge step and an arranged marriage where one has to make a whole lot of compromises and adjustments to begin with is already difficult , having an added ethnic disparity just makes it even more difficult .
I am in no way against inter-ethnic marriages , to each their own but at the end of the day you want to have things that both of you identify with and can relate to. Every ethnicity has its own norms and practices that an outsider cannot relate to or even appreciate .***
