    Problem is what's there to move for? I mean I wouldn't mind visiting every year or so, but what would us diaspora do? It's not like Armenia is in an economic boom or something, aren't people still leaving to find jobs elsewhere?

    See you need to find a rich Armenian man. That way at least his expecting you to cook, clean, and take care of the kid's will be thrown out the window, b/c you'll have a chef and/or go out for food all the time. You'd have maids for the cleaning, and nannies to help you with the kids and be there to watch them when you feel like going out, or if you have a job.

    But given the chances of that actually happening are slim, I'd say to stick with the Polish dude for now

    Me being an Armenian woman, I gotta say it's xxxxx hard to find an Armenian guy that is not 1) hardheaded 2) macho 3) thinks that i belong home cooking 4) makes sure that i don't know more about sex than him 5) has damn pride issues ( unfortunatelly, this phenomena is observed 100% in Armenian men) and so forth and so on. Not until men from my beloved race learn how to be real men without stupid pride issues am i going to spend the rest of my life with one of those mentioned. And let me tell you why, because such pathetic marriage is either gonna end in divorce or me having sex with other guys who will make me feel like a woman instead of an enslaved housekepper with bunch of kids running around.

    In a scenario such as this one, i would rather spend my life with a person of different race who is not only going to have sex to make bunch of kids and then simply drink and watch TV everyday and expect me to go to work, cook dinner and do all the housework. My polish boyfriend cooks for me, helps with housework ( after all we both live in that house not just me), makes crazy love to me in other words treats me like a princess like I should be treated. And this is what i call a man. And one day I hope to have lots of little blond sons and daughters with him who will not only know Armenian language and Armenian history but will identify themselves just as much of an Armenian as me.

    In summary, what makes someone Armenian if they live in the Diaspora? What makes a Diasporan who is 100% 'Armenian' more Armenian than someone who is 1% Armenian if they both plan to stay abroad? Nothing, absolutely nothing. They are supporting foreign governments which may turn on Armenia in a second.

    Many here would do well to read and learn Dr. Armen Ayvazian's article 'Who is an Armenian?"

    Agreed. Also, an Armenian marrying an Armenian in the Diaspora isn't better than an Armenian marrying an otar in Armenia. There is a much higher chance that the kids in the Diaspora will be assimilated than the "50%" childern of the Armenian and otar in Armenia. If Armenians care about their history, culture, religion, etc. then they should plan on moving to Armenia; no excuses.

    Pretty simple really if you look Asian, Indian, black, etc. you are not Armenian. Your history and your ethnicity has nothing to do with that of Armenia's history.

    The ancestors of Armenians would not accept you as one of their own.

    I am pretty sure I do. I have never met a black, Asian Armenian and if one came to me and said they were Armenian I would in no way accept them as such.

    Well I guess I am, but that really has nothing to do with what you think.

    Now ask yourself why you call yourself Armenian? Is it because you come from a long line of Armenians?

    Ask yourself why there are Turks who look Armenian, Greek, etc. They were Armenians who mixed with Turks and lost their identity.

    Armenians are already to few and spread around the world. I do not want us to disapear.

    Mixing with Europeans at least you retain the look of Armenians and hold eqaul value of both genetic markers. When you mix with anybody else the Armenian genes become resesive.

    Why? So your kids will not be or look Armenian and have an identity problem?

    If not Armenian(hopefully it will be Armenian) I would choose a Russian or French girl.
