I know a bloke in the hockey team whose family hail from Pakistan (originally). He drinks like a fish, bothers all the girls in the clubs and is a superb bloke. His girlfriend is an awesomely gawjus girl of Britishy origin.

So in other words hes a muslim with British culture.

I'm sure you've all heard the horror stories, muslim man dating white girl, usually he either forces her to live an islamic lifestyle or dumps her for a muslim girl, preferably a virgin. So considering all this would you still date a muslim? Do you know any happy muslim man white girl couples?

For me it would depend on how traditional they were, and if they were Muslim in the sense that they followed the religion, or if they were born into a Muslim family but weren't religious themselves. I would find it difficult to marry someone who was devoutly religious I think, irrespective of what that religion was, as I am not religious, and would find some opinions and beliefs wouldn't fit with my outlook, which could be problematic. And I couldn't marry someone who believed the role of women is to look after their home and family, and who believed I should obey them, and ask permission for things, regardless of whether they believed that because of their religion or for other reasons. I believe in equality. If someone had been born Muslim but the above things didn't apply, then I would have no problem with it. I have friends who are Muslim, but I think marrying someone who is very religious is a big thing to consider.

You're made to believe all Muslims are like this when in reality I know religious Muslims who would be happy to let their wives work and not banish them to do the house work. If anything that's a culture thing.

as a Roman Catholic..
Islam and Catholocism are the two closest religions in the world, our Bible is closer to the Qur'an than the Christian versions of the Bible peace be upon you sister
and to answer the OP.. of course, I'm in love with an amazing Muslim man
Islam is simply beautiful

Yes you're right, not all Muslims are like this. I was using it as an example of something I would be uncomfortable with. I may be wrong, but Muslims do believe that men and women have equally important but different roles don't they?

In principle, I have no objection to dating someone whose religion is totally different to mine (I'm an atheist). In reality, I think I'd be concerned that the differences were too great.

That in itself is worrying to me: the implication that a man might feel entitled to have that kind of control over my life, to give me permission to do those things so to speak. If I get married, those things won't even be a consideration.

In context of course the wife can do what she wants but like in an actual relationship both parties must agree.

It's all well and good saying ill get married and **** loads of bitches cuz my partner can't have an opinion or say in what I should do.

What about a non-practicing white European Muslim such as myself?

I don't mean that, of course. When I say I believe in equality in relationships, I don't mean me doing whatever I want at my husband's expense. What I don't want though is the sort of relationship where I'm only allowed to do what I want because my husband says that's okay. At the same time, I wouldn't want my husband to think he needed my approval to do his own thing. Obviously there's a fine line but I hope to have the sort of relationship where we know each other well enough to establish those boundaries. Where there is a very great difference between partners, e.g. in terms of religion, then I have to be realistic and expect that we'd probably not find that balance, which would make me incredibly unhappy as I'm a very independent person and the thought of sharing my life with someone frightens me in itself. So the prospect of a marriage where I am "limited" in what I'm allowed to do is a definite no-no.
