If you were dating, married, or involved with someone who you, and possibly even they, thought were of a particular race but later found out they had other ancestries hidding the their biological closet; would you leave them?

It seems to me if the average man falls in love (or lust) with a blonde haired blue eyed, white skinned women and she has blonde haired blue eyed, white skinned parents, he's not going to ask for a DNA analysis of her genetic make-up, and a copy of her family tree going all the way back to adam. He's just going to see his "white" significant other for what she is, and that's white, even if its just in the social sense of the word. Most people aren't as concerned with the minute details of race like those of us that post on this website. The average Joe is more concerned with how hot his girlfriend is!!!!

True. The only people that claim they would delve into that minutiae are those that are single. Not unlike trying to determine whether your French girl is composed primarily of Latin, Germanic, or Gallic heritage; the possibilities are myriad, including those of admixture derived from conflict i.e. Magyar, English, Welsh, Scottish, German, Slavic, Northern Italian, Spanish, Austrian, Swiss blood. The list continues...
However, the French largely include specific phenotypes, despite that some can pass for other nationalities and other nationalities can pass for French.
It doesn't matter if that person is French or not. It matters if they think they are and if you think they are.
After all, perception is reality.

My brother's first wife never told her family what my brother actually was (African, French, British, Arabic, Chinese and Dutch), so they just assumed he was white, because he looks the part (including blond hair and green eyes). It wasn't until the the weekend of his wedding that her family saw his true "colors" when we all showed up looking like the rainbow coalition. Her father immediately got up, publically denounced the "whole mixed race thing," said a few choice words and left. He refused to speak to his daughter nor acknowledge his grandchildren, one of whom was two when the wedding took place, until they divorced; and he still doesn't recognize his three grandchildren.
The funny thing is that her family isn't completely white my ex sister-in-law was always talking about and showing pictures of her Lumbee (mixed Native American) PATERNAL great gandmother, plus two of her three children by my brother are the only blondes on her side of the family. I think the whole situation made my brother a little bit more militant (not much though) because his second wife is of Haitian mulatto descent.

If someone dates, marries or is involved with someone he/she thought was of a particular race and then finds out of "other ancestries" is a test that true love should easily pass, even against the opinions of those around you.
Conflicts could arise if you discover of your love partner's other ancestries until the moment the offspring arrive. Doubt of an infidelity can really corrode a relationship.
To avoid much suffering, I think honesty is the best policy.

I wouldn't and I think it would be idiotic to do so. It's understandable that some people would only want to marry within a certain group. But to actually leave someone you like because of the person's genetic background (not even phenotype) is twisted, almost sick, in my opinion. If you were dating, married, or involved with someone who you, and possibly even they, thought were of a particular race but later found out they had other ancestries hidding the their biological closet; would you leave them? |

"Throwback babies are an extreme rarity, and what if you don't know-as the original question stated, then you're not being dishonest. That's what happened to me and lead me to ask this question. I always assumed I was all white until I found out otherwise. By acknowledging this, I have been cut off by some of my family who refuses to give up on their fictitious notion of "white purity." Even though the facts are right their the just can't accept the reality that they are NOT "white." |

I don't get why people don't want their daughter marrying somebody "non white".. What the hell does that mean?
Some rednecks are so stupid they might think some dark skinned Romanian is non white. They would probably call him Puerto Rican or something (even though that ironically is also white in many cases).
Seriously white people say the dumbest things sometimes like "I don't want my white daughter marrying that spanish guy! I don't approve of interracial marriage!"
Seriously, some white people are friggn dumb.

White people aren't the only ones who are ignorant of Caucasoids. Most people have no idea what exactly constitutes the white race or the black race. They have been brainwashed by the media into believing Middle Easterners and Hispanics constitute some entirely different colored race that came out of nowhere.
I don't understand why white nationalists will not recognize the peoples of the Middle East as white. The people aren't Congoid, they aren't Australoid, they aren't Mongoloid, they aren't Capoid, that leaves only one race: Caucasoid. And that's exactly what Northern Semites and Orientalids are. I can understand the nationalists not wanting them in Europe or America because that would disrupt the physical types there, but come on, at least admit they are Caucasian. I wish they would stop pretending like Semitic peoples are a race apart because they aren't.

No. If I were to leave a man because he has a "negro in the woodpile" I couldn't have been in love with him in the first place. |

God, I'd have to be a pretty evil, godless, heartless bastard to leave a girl because I found out she had some non-white ancestry.

Yeah, you should ask those kind of questions there. we're not on a Nazi forum. For racists/nazis/etc the answer would obviously be yes, they would leave them. Don't see much point in asking them that sort of questions. |
