Marriage has nothing to do with the colour of our skin but the shape of our character.It doesn't matter whether you are black or white,for me what matter most are the love,care and sacrifices that you are ready to make for each other.Marriage is all about good relationship and quality life together not about skin colour,so,i can marry a white woman.

I THINK IT DEPENDS ON HOW WELL WE GET ALONG AND IF THE LOVE IS THERE. I AM PRETTY MUCH "HOOD" WHICH MEANS I AM VERRY MUCH A INNER CITY GIRL. I COULD NEVER SEE MYSELF WITH A WHITE MAN UNLESS HE CAME FORM THE SAME BACKROUND AS ME..WHICH MEANS HE IS HOOD TOO. THERE ARE ALOT OF THEM OUT THERE AND I HAVE DATED A FEW BUT WHEN IT COMES TO BEING SERIOUS ITS ALWAY FAMILY THAT GETS IN THE WAY AND THE PRESSUE FORM FAMILY IS THE WORST.BUT IF BOTH FAMILYS HAD NO PROBLEM WITH IT THEN I WOULD GO FOR IT. NOTE: REAL LOVE STAYS AND CONQURES ALL

The color of a person has nothing to do with who the person is . I think if you both love each other and are willing to be there for each other always then nothing else should matter . If you find someone of any color and they love you as much as you love them then I wouldn't let what anyone else said stand in your way . People are too quick too judge things that they don't fully understand or feel intimidated by. It is not there life to live , and you can't follow someone else's dreams for you , you have to do what is best for you . Hope this helps .

the white man i am gonna marry soon - taken with my boyfriend in a beach resort. he's white and i am brown. and still, we will marry soon.
i am from the philippines and my boyfriend is from sweden. our skin color is so different but it did not bother us. we love each other so much that we even forget most of the time that we were raised in two different countries. love is not a question of who you are but a question of who you are when you are with the person you love most.

nobody has restricted someone in marrying another whether you have different skin colors. this will be racism if someone will not allow this to happen because the world is trying to eliminate this kind of ideology (specially to black people and asians) because it is one form of human rights violation. and this might affect the behavior of one individual specially their confidence and their self-esteem.
