I understand that gora parents don’t get in the way of their adult children’ decisions, but they must have an opinion. Not every gora or gori is just completely independent of their parents, many do have very close relationships with them (unlike what the stereotype is).
So when a gora or gori marries a Pakistani, what do their parents think?
I know what 95% of Pakistani parents think, so just curious what the other side thinks.
Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
lol…you think any gora parents exist here 
kher, my gori frndz do get proposals of Pakistani guys.
my one frndz parents are strict so they rejected (oh well gal was also not interested in that kid)
and other rejected the guy herself
Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
i think they silently say 'Oh Shhhhhhhhh!!!'
Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
i will never say anything to my children
Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
My mom and dad were SO supportive - in the end. I was actually a little surprised because my dad was a patriot-1950s-conservative-republican. Not racist really but well yeah I guess he was to some extent. They were SOOOO worried when I got involved with my hubby, when I went over to pak...then when they got a phone call from me every day telling them of all the AMAZING things I saw and people I met, when they saw the photos, when they got to know him well...things were just fine. I mean its hard to be a parent with a daughter who goes off to a country that has all kinds of "state warnings" not to visit yeah? So they were amazing. Of couse that movie "Not without my Daughter" made them worry too, that dam movie lol....
But know what? My dad when he was so very sick and knowing that the end was near, told me that of his 3 kids, at least he doesnt have to worry about me. That he was so proud of me that I found such a GOOD man for a husband and father.
To my dying day, those words will be among the most precious I've ever heard.

How does this work? Pakistani guys just walk upto goris and propose?
Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
:) May Allah bless your father!
I think the people who have the opportunity to explore the country and its people for themselves see that without the filter of media hovering above them, they're able to see people for who they really are. Only if people were more open-minded and rational about it, and realized that Pakiz aren't the raging maniacs they're made to look, just as not all Westerners are Anti-Islam or hatemongers.

I think it's likely through some sorta contact, school or work perhaps.

arnt all pakis closet terrorists / conspiracy theorists
Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
My parents were not thrilled at first, mostly because we planned to live in Pakistan for a little while, and Not Without My Daughter was still pretty well-known at the time. When we married, a lot of Americans really didn't know the difference between Indians and Pakistanis.
They came to love my husband, but were completely disgusted with the way that my in-laws behaved towards me and towards them. I grew up in a very close family, and I think that they really miss the possibility of interaction with my in-laws. I think their biggest regret is that I don't have the kind of relationship with my in-laws that both of my parents had with theirs.

^ Definitely conspiracy theorists (must be the genes) ;-)
Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
So, the general consensus (and my personal experience from people I know) is that they (the parents) are apprehensive at first but then they get to know the person and are quite ok with it. As someone said in most cases a Pakistani son/daughter in law stands out in a more positive light than their non-Pakistani counterparts.

Not necessarily. While my parents love my husband and appreciate how well he takes care of me, they are easily frustrated my his general incompetence around the house. My dad has remarked on several occasions over the years that my husband isn't able to do the simplest things around the house, and his inability to cook, clean, and help out around the house has always irritated my mom. After we'd been married for about 10 years, my mom told him that he had two legs that work just as well as hers, and if he needed some tea the kitchen was on the left - it was priceless :)
Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
Lol, that's totally besides the point. I have gora friends who are worse than ur husband when it comes to doing chores and serving themselves.
Re: What do gora parents think when their son/daugher marries a Pakistani?
…but but guys dont do any work, any where 
and desi brothers are the most nakhatu ppl on the face of this earth, whereas some gora!

Hahaha!!! That was an excellent way of letting your husband be reminded of facts!! Thanks to our desi mothers, god forbid their sons will have to raise a finger to do anything. Even though my MIL cares for me and loves me, she still has a hard time when i ask my husband to help me around the house. One particular instance was when i asked him to fill a water jug and she got offended. I think i was more offended than her because it made me feel like it was ok for me to do it but not for him (arent we all someone's kids somewhere?).
