Feeling accepted in Britain (for ethnic minorities)

Spreading TB = antisocial; resting up and recovering = sensible

Perhaps.. I do think one needs to keep an open mind when in a multicultural/racial relationship, and demonstrate a degree of ‘interculturalism’. My mother’s next door neighbours are Russian and American, they both speak both languages and so do the kids

Jolly good!

I would feel so depressed if I did not train in the gym and have bodybuilding as a crutch in life. Can't take the British lifestyle of drinking and eating what they do.

I am so disconnected from this British society that it is unreal, it is so ****ing robotic. The only way people feel happy in this society is when they have wished away their weekdays and are up to their eyeballs in drugs and alcohol in the weekend to forget it all.

Also, the Coptic faith does not permit one to marry a non-Oriental Orthodox individual :P

It depends where you live and nowadays people not just the British want to place and mark people down. So they wrongly assume by asking you where your parents are from that that defines who you are how you think and what you feel.
It used to be same if you said you were from Newcastle Upon Tyne people would probably assume you were working class and not very cultured where as if you said you were from Harrogate they would assume the opposite.
British people are a pedantic lot they like to file you away under some category they'll even do it through accent , dress sense or demeanour.

Ignore them OP, blame the media for perpetuating racist stereotypes. Not every Muslim is ISIS, etc. My ex also dealt with this, it must be awful

not every muslim is isis, but a hell of a lot of them do sympathise with isis

I'm sure many Muslims do not support Isis. They're the number one victims of terrorist attacks. They despise Isis and what they've done done to their families/lands

They do.

Just google "muslim support survey jihad", and you will see a number of polls and surveys detailing support for jihad amongst the majority of muslims in the west

I've never dated a fully british guy for this reason I guess.

What's with this obsession of wanting to become accepted. You don't need to be accepted man. Just be civilised, treat people with respect, be productive in your life, and try to contribute to society in some way.

I don't care if I'm accepted, I'm taking your jeewbs

Sorry to hear about your experience. There are always going to be ignorant peole out there sadly.



What do you mean by fully British? I can't help but feel that you caterogise people into "British" and "fully British" when such a divison shouldn't really exist.

Plus, I don't see why not feeling yourself to belong to a culture would stop you dating someone of that culture. I don't feel Italian, in fact I'm not Italian, but that would not be a reason for me not dating an Italian.

Why does everyone want to be "accepted"? What's with the insecurities?

My own personal beliefs are if you like England and are not talking down the country at every possible opportunity you will be fine. As a little Englander i do get annoyed when i hear minorities roasting England when they came here to Improve there life. Another thing i get annoyed what ethnic minorities do is when they are arrogant ****s when you try and communicate with them and then they speak about not being accepted into British society where generally we speak and get along with anyone.
