whats wrong with that? nothing is wrong with it, obviously it makes more sense since the person will be more compatible with you if you are a nerd then you will understand that you cant get microsoft onto a apple computer without putting some extra work into it, the same goes for the relationships, if we are brought up similarly under similar conditions (same food, traditions, beliefs etc) then obviously your more likely to fall for the person, anyways i wouldnt want my baby to be halfcast =/ but yeh familys do prefer if there child marries the same race as theres since obviously the familys from both sides are more compatible e.g. can share special traditional events,partys etc which brings them closer together, also the partners would have been brought up to similar standards unlike when in mixed relationships where there are different beliefs and ideas which may contradict one another and lead to problems.
