Yeah, it's such a shame, cos Afghan and Persian girls are sooooo gorgeous. I think I just gotta find one who is willing to rebel against her family and run away with me.

not many do, i wont rebel against my family, but yeh i agree with you on the gorgeous part, :wink:

I think it is said that in the 21st century people are still being told who they can and cannot date/marry.

Any asain muslim girl who decides to marry out of her caste, culture, religion is going to meet the same fate as this:

Our report concerning Afshan Azad, a young star of four Harry Potter films, illustrates a vital point about domestic violence.

That point is that however personal and private the issue involved may seem to perpetrator and victim, domestic violence is a matter of public interest.

And even when the victim is wanting to stop proceedings, there is often a moral obligation and public duty upon prosecutors to continue with the case.

In the sad circumstances of Ms Azad, a Muslim, her relationship with a Hindu man was a source of consternation in her family. Manchester Crown Court heard that she was subjected to a ‘wholly unnecessary and unexpected assault’ by her 28-year-old brother Ashraf Azad at the family home in Longsight, Manchester.

She escaped and now lives in London. Ms Azad made a statement to police but subsequently made it plain she did not support action being taken against her brother and her father.

The reason why its GAME OVER for them is because they have to make two choices, either stick to their famillies or run away with their lovers.Most stick to their famillies.

It's very rare where a muslim girl can get the best of both worlds.

And Islam is the most organized religion on this planet.

Oh, i would be able to if he was of the same religion. As in born into the religion, it wouldn't even matter if he was an atheist. Would have to be of the same caste too. Then other factors come in such as his family status, background, family reputation.

My family wouldn't allow it. It's complete bull****, but you learn to live with the stupid sexist mother****in culture. :rolleyes:

As in you'd be disowned, or they would find a way to forcibly stop it?

I'm chinese and I'm not allowed to marry someone from a different race.
I guess it has to do with culture. They would like my future husband to be able to understand the language they speak as well as the way they think.
However, IF I did marry someone from another race, I know they wouldn't stop loving me :smile:

and so would accept it at the end.

I always wanted to see what the kids would turn out like if a black guy married a chinese girl.

Are chinese girls into black guys?
