I wouldn’t bc I’m into Asian guys rather than white guys. Well I’m a Bengali Muslim girl currently engaged to a Korean Muslim (he’s a revert).
My parents don’t care unless they are Muslim. Well, my mum is second generation and distances from her toxic af family and is quite western in some ways, and doesn’t seem to like or care for Bangladesh and being Bengali. My dad came here when he was a toddler so is a first generation however acts more like a second generation to me. My dad still is in touch with his family in England and the ones who were living back home (now in America with my dad’s sister) and has respect for Bengalis and Bangladesh however is quite western. I think I’m more third then second generation and this has influenced the fact that my parents don’t care about marrying for race but religion instead.
However my parents would ship me with their Bengali friend’s son, who tried to strangle me when I was ten, saying how handsome he is etc. And my mum would say to marry a white man, my dad going on about Hispanic men whilst my uncle saying to marry within our ethnic background (starting from when I was 13).
Imagine their surprise when my Korean friend from when I went to Korea to teach in my matriculation converted to Islam and proposed to me. I obviously said yes because he was good-looking and well mannered, and a good Muslim. My mum agreed to it “isn’t he like those boys you listened to?” I LIKED KPOP OK whilst my dad was sceptical. But my fiancé was intent on marrying me and I quoted that you shouldn’t deny a proposal from a Muslim, and it went ahead. I already met his family and they liked me. Long story short I don’t like white men or worship them. I am not from East London btw either and we shouldn’t generalise either. All I know is that there will be quite a few Pakistani-Bengalis by the way Tiktok is going and by the increasing amount of Bengali Kpop fans...
Sorry if this was long but yeah.
