Cause they want dorky/annoying kids running around all the time, and they want to lose their peaceful personal-space being forced to share a bedroom with somebody else. :?

From a "racial" point of views, the human species is a bunch of mutts. Which is good. Mixture promotes strength.

To promote marriage is to promote bondage.

UHhhmmm...

Did you mean to say "bonding".

Or do you really mean "bondage"?

( If you meant the latter- you dont need to be married to get into kinky stuff! And not all married couples are into whips and chains.)

The Philippines seems to be promoting interracial marriage, through its entertainment industry.

For example, here is a Filipina actress, whose screen name is Anne Curtis, with her father, James Curtis-Smith, an Australian:

Another Filipina actress, whose screen name is Angelica Panganiban, with her American father, Mark Charlson

Image


And, for the ladies: Gerald Anderson, whose father is American

Mixed-race folks pretty much dominate the Filipino entertainment industry.

bond·age:
n.
1. The state of one who is bound as a slave or serf.
2. A state of subjection to a force, power, or influence.

Don't blink. I'm agreeing with ruveyn about something. ;)
I think *promoting* interracial marriage is another of those social engineering type wheezes that never ends well. It tends to happen anyway wherever there is migration - a proportion of folk will always be attracted to those who are different. I suspect that's a trait hardwired into us, the 'hybrid vigour' thing. And where there are no insurmountable cultural issues I see no downside. I'm better described as 'passing complexion' (i.e. second from the left on ArrantPariah's pic) myself than white, as a result of my happily married great grandparents - an Irishman and a West Indian woman - and their kids were certainly none the worse for their mixed genetics. I like pale 'English roses' myself, so there's no accounting for taste - luckily for me my wife doesn't. :lol:

Dan Quayle actually said "nothing is more important than the bondage between a mother and a child."

I jumped to the conclusion that you were making the same hilarious malapropism.

OH!

So you're saying that marriage is a BAD thing.

I guess I just assumed that a red stater like you would be an advocate of "family values".

But you actually MEANT that it promotes 'bondage' ( and the real kind- not the bedroom pretend kind).

Sorry.

Maybe Raptor has become either a Feminist or a MRA?

ruveyn


Maybe that the so-called "American Melting Pot" used to be strictly about different European ethnicities shedding their European identities and blending together, and that we are moving beyond that definition.


The human race is mostly mutts. That is good. Mixed breeds are the strongest.

You seem not to have been following some of our discussions about Feminism.

MRA=Men's Rights Activist, and the arch-enemy of any Feminist, although both would perceive marriage as bondage, and seek to avoid it.
