I'm not a fucking idiot, so I don't condemn people for what area of the planet they happened to be on when they slithered out of a snatch.

No. I mean, it we're culturally incompatible (values differ wildly or something), it could be misinterpreted that way.

My mom is in racist denial though. When I was about 19 there was an older half-Korean girl I liked and my mom was all like "don't you think you should find somebody... more like you?" And she totally meant it that way, her rambling clarified it.

lol what a tryhard and ironically ignorant post. Are you implying that different "areas of the planet" don't have distinct cultures and values? There's more to your heritage than geography.

Sit down, little one. I'm of West German heritage, I understand more about being judged for your culture and the actions of your ancestors than you could ever hope to comprehend. The other side of my family is Irish. Ever heard of "No Irish Need Apply"?

Condemning people you've never met simply based on where they're from is idiotic, and anyone who would argue against that fact is an idiot. You're welcome to prove that you are one, if you'd like.

Yeah, it's not like every person shares all the same cultural opinions. There are some that are bound to be more prevalent in certain countries, but it's not a blanket "everybody believes ____" situation. Look at all the attempted unrest in Iran recently, for starters...

I'm German (Nordrhein-Westfalen is where my family originated) on one side and predominantly Scottish/Irish on the other, but we may have very little in common. That said, where you grow up is still bound to affect aspects of your personality and ideals. It's complex lol

Who's condemning? The question is about whether or not you'd date someone and conflicting values and culture would be a completely reasonable reason not to.

I'm sure you'd completely fine with dating and marrying someone who was born and raised in a village in bangladesh with no concept of modern society because you're just so progressive.

Like I said, tryhard.

You need to travel more, you'll be surprised how completely alien some cultures will be to you. If all you know are americans whose parents are immigrants then it makes sense but if you actually travel to other countries you'll understand.

That isn't the question of the topic, champ. The question is if somebody is from a specific place, would you not date them for that reason alone. As this guy said:

If you're dating a Japanese girl, that doesn't mean she follows Bushido and will disembowel herself if she dishonors the ghosts of her ancestors. I honestly can't tell if you're trolling, or actually this stupid.

I fail to see how that could happen, as I'd never go to Bangladesh and I live in America. I imagine that anybody I'd meet here would have knowledge of modern society. I imagine that if I met someone here and they wanted to shit in bowls and eat bugs I'd have larger reasons for why I wouldn't date her than "her parents are from x".

I'm glad you accepted my invitation to make a fool out of yourself. Sadly, fools generally lack the capacity to recognize themselves as fools, so lessons never get learned. A shame, that.

I've had the fortune of knowing personally and professionally people from many countries. I work in international development, and while I've only been to two countries in southern Africa thus far, I've got a good deal of exposure to many others. I don't doubt that there are places in the world I would be pretty culture-shocked, but that doesn't invalidate anything I said, nor is it aligned with what the topic title/first post are asking.

I'd judge a person on their own merits, not just on where their parents are from.

I'm also dyslexic, which isn't totally an excuse, but sometimes an explanation for getting things mixed up. Again, my bad.

So you can tell me with a straight face that if her parents were from a country that would literally murder you for being American, and their parents were raised in that culture - you wouldn't get the fuck out of there?

Yeah okay lmao

So you're telling me that if you met a girl that you really liked and her parents happen to be from a certain country that you had biases against, whether for valid or invalid reasons, yet her parents didn't show any signs of following the bad things that you associate with that country, that you wouldn't date her?

I've talked to a few white supremacists/racists face to face so I'm not sure why you'd think that would scare me.
