I disapprove interracial marriages. After being in a relationship with a white girl, I have come to realize foreign women can never understand me, my cultural way of thinking and my way of expressionism, especially my gap in the English language semantics, despite my fluency.

And I can't stand their lack of common interests, lack of social values, family bonds and other intricate details.

I'm seeing a few women now. They are located in different areas so I don't get caught. But after messing with these girls for a year, I'm going to go to India and find myself an awesome chick who looks like Nauheed Cyrusi or something

She will perfectly understand me, will have the same outlook about family and way of life and it will be a lifelong marriage, will be a strict mother to our kids, where I won't have to worry about a divorce, won't have to tremble about my relationship with my mother, won't have to have nightmares about my wealth getting shredded into half, pay a fortune in alimony and beg her to practice my faith etc., and last but not least, show at least an ounce of concern when her husband's finger gets jammed while locking a moving truck. Wisdom has reached my head, finally

What is she, a hot Parsee? And isn't there a Mrs. Chamataka somewhere? Or was she hypothetical?

I ain't buying it, dude. I live in an Indian neighborhood. I have seen dysfunctional marriages among Indians just as much as I have among others.

Yes, she's out there somewhere for the most awesome Indian dude on earth

My first girlfriend was Parsi. So that might be a cause with my present fascination. I'm seeing an Indian girl in Long Island, but she is something of an airhead, though she looks cute. So that is what Americanism brings to someone who is even Indian. That's why I'm slowly getting convinced that an outsider like I am will have the same all round ideology as I do. You see the genius of Barack Obama becoz he technically grew up in Asia most of his adolescent life.

Dysfunction exists, brother. It's all about the monstrosity of the dysfunction. A white/black/brown wedlock is a trainwreck from the get go. And I think I will be happy with a wife who looks like me and who thinks like me and who is pretty much me in every respect. That's a winning combo.

Biggest cop-out ever. Your kids will care if they get bullied in school for being red-headed, for having freckles, for being too skinny, for being too fat, being too tall, too short, having too big of a nose, having a uni-brow....so are all gingers, people with freckles, people who have a lot of really skinny, fat, tall, or short people in their families etc. automatically eliminated from your dating pool? There are a million reasons why people get bullied. I smell BS.

That went out in the 80s, Phil. Unless one lives in the backwoods of Whiteopia (or maybe Long Island), today's kids live in a much more diverse, much less segregated country than we did.

Thank goodness.

Is this a joke. Actually he grew up in Hawaii, he only lived in asia for four years(ages 6-10) nice try though. As far as your perfect Indian pride I hope you plan on living in India with her, because once she comes here and learns the American culture she'll be just like all the american women you despise.
