Post Is this culture and racism?
ok I got a job working at a vidio store and the owners were from the middle east. I dont know eXactly were in the Middle East, but they were Moslems and the mother wore one of those black and white veils.. anyway when I was getting ready to relieve there son from work, to make a long story short , he told me that his mother told him and all the Moslem mothers teach their son that when you want to have fun and play around go with an American women , but when you are serious and ready to settle down and get married go for your own kind... He was acting like it was a compliment because he said he doesnt like Moslem women, but I didnt take it as a complimaent that Americam women are only for play and Moslem women you take in high regard... I was very angry... can you tell me what your thoughts are and how you would take this??.... This question is for all races, male and female Thank you

I have heard about that - what they teach their children, but it applies to everyone who is not Muslim regardless of the woman's nationality. I think its their culture which is why one has to convert to Islam if they want to get married to one.

This is as old as the days of the tower of Babel, when the masses were divided into the the four main races. I know black mothers that has said the same thing, date and play all you want with other races but when your ready to get married stick to your own kind. I know a white mother that told her daughter that. I don't understand it. Love should know No color, No religion, No boundaries of countries, not even sex.
Do you actually think if it was so wrong we might have had 11 or 12 or maybe even 13 commandments. I would be angry too, but it is your job and as hard as they are to get right now I would not say to much but if he starts the conversation up again, I would say I'm sorry but I don't feel this is an appropriate type of conversation to have with an employer, coworkers or the owners family. I wish you luck, he may be hinting for you to play.
