Ag shame, arme kindertjies! Die ouers kan wees wat hulle wil (elk 'n opregte ras) maar wat van die arme kinders? Wat is hulle? Ander kan dit maar doen maar ek sal nie.

I am for it. People love each other, irrespective of colour and culture and find a common understanding that works for both parties... so who are we to judge.

I am all for people being allowed to love and marry whomsoever they choose, without being condemned and judged by people who have differing views. If you are a white, gay, Jewish man wanting to marry a black, gay man from Nigeria then thats your decision and it should be respected by everyone else.

Considering that whites and blacks and yellows and browns have so many problems..perhaps it should be insisted upon, and then everyone would eventually be the same colour and could concentrate on fighting about religion. What a sad mess this world is!! Did God not make all..? and was it not for climate reasons that skins changed colour..and surely if skins were black for the hot countries...it would be better for all to have some colour. As for marriage..what does it matter, so long as the child is brought up in a caring and loving enviroment. Look at the Carribean Islands where 90% of the people are of mixed races...look at Egypt and so many other countries where it does not matter. I think it was Hitler who wanted the 'master race' and of only one colour and religion.

People should have the freedom to marry whom ever they choose. A very large percentage of people in this country are actually descendants of inter-racial origins, though they would not admit it. The Afrikaners enjoyed inter-racial sex at the weekends and the benefits of a white dominated country during the week. I'm dying to hear Sharksters opinion on this....maybe he'll say something now that I've left my little gay footprints here....;)

I'm a bit dissapointed that so far quite a few people are against it. I mean, is colour THAT big a deal? I have been involved with my coloured boyfriend for years and I don't even SEE his colour. Love IS blind not only to faults and bad habits and all that, but also to race. I know we're all allowed to have our own opinions but I feel that love is precious and beautiful and if someone loves you deeply and truely and with their whole heart and you feel the same, it does NOT matter what the colour of his/ her skin is.

The culture and the inlaws are the problem, not the race.

To each their own. Personally, I do not find women of colour physically attractive. That does not make me a racist, it is simply my personal preference. Over the years I have met and become friends with many "mixed race" couples, some of whom have been wonderful people with beautifully well mannered and delightful children. Similarly, I am acquainted with some very intelligent, decent and fun-to-be-with ladies who are black, coloured, indian, chinese etc etc. They are friends but that is as far as I would be willing to go. My choice. I agree with those before me who say it is a personal choice and I certainly would not support any moves to ban/prohibit the practice.

This remains a issue, similiar to your sexaul preference, if it works for you, do it. To me it is an issue, to be different, to be see and to stand out. No-one can limit you to who you fall in love with. But is is a choice you make, when you say" i have no problem being involved with a black/ japanese etcwoman/man". Supa-gay - To say white men pick up black prostitutes in the weekend, and attended the AWB meeting in the week is about a low a humanly possible. You are put some individauls in a boxes and say all white afrikaans speaking men are that way. When I said being gay is a choice, the gay community stand and say it isn't. I didnt declared it fact, said it was my opinion. The same way I can say All english softies dying or peroxide their hair are a bunch of "moffies" Or wearing a earring, or anything else that society assiocaites the "being gay". We are all humans, but think what lecagy when leave behind if your child doesnt know which side to pick when he goes to a public school. There he makes a chioce that would either give him/her a lot of trouble or discrimanate against a certain group because of that group rejection of him. Sound fimiliar does it?

If these couples don't have children that's fine but when they start having children it's them who suffers when other people start teasing of gossiping behind them

Weird, but it's there choice. Our one neighbour is married to a black woman (a white man)... I many times wants to ask him why he married her... And apparently she's not the only wife... Really makes one raising eyebrows...

Being a product of inter racial marriages from both parents and and grandparents, I have no problem. I have seen them age together happily, they may have had their challenges but I think as they grow they were more able to handle them. My parents were celebrating their 40th anniversary in August.
