Re: Any of you is married to a Mexican or Latin people?

Comparing inter-ethnic marriage to outright slaughter is pushing, I'm not Armenian and I can speak the language to a degree of being able to communicate at this point wit someone without any trouble, I understand the alphabet completely and I know the history and know the differences in regards to music, etc., if I, someone without a drop of Armenian blood in my veins can learn this, so can someone who is half blood. THere are full blooded Armenians (And for that matter Mexicans, Cubans, Russians, Irish people) who don't know xxxx about their culture, a good example is your average ghetto wannabe Mexican or Armenian, who thinks they are the next Puff Daddy.

I can also speak English, do the YMCA and chicken dance but in no way do I identify myself as being some sort of WASP. Your average ghetto acting ethnic person is experiencing an identity crisis due to the surrounding popular culture resulting in the phenomenon known as cultural assimilation.

Re: Any of you is married to a Mexican or Latin people?

I see your point, but what I am saying is that Criollos don't see Mestizos as white, also most are really Spanish speaking Indians, hence it's better to lump them with Amerinds, in addition what you need to think of is the damages it would then do for an Amerind who is already marginalized to marry a Spaniard for example, it can lead to the total devastation of Indian culture if the child isn't taught about their Indian heritage, moreso with Mestizos.

But yes, I agree, it's a personal choice, and do see your point with Armenians, just saying diversity is far more than people know about in the Americas, language isn't everything specially in the case of say Ireland vs. England (who are for real both white). And as I said, not meant to be an argument against, I respect your posts on here, specially in regards to issues regarding the situation with Turkey and Armenia

Yes, I respect diversity of ethnicity too that is why I believe that the policy of assimilation is bad for all as it will only help those super elitists who wish for a dumb downed, artificial culture which they can use to more easily manipulate the masses.

I'm quite interested in Latin American history and politics so I may have some questions for you later on down the road.

BTW: It is very cool to see a non-Armenian so interested in Armenia, it's people, history, and culture. Why did you become so interested with Armenia?

@ iFemale :

I wasn't aware he was married to a Roman legionaire

@ Dr. Dre (just j/k lol) :

That's what I said above,it's consumerist Anglo-Saxon culture, infused with whatever can be mass marketed, today it's the stereotypical view of African American culture, yesteryear everyone though they were Japanese, in the end though it's Anglo Saxon culture which dominates America and that which the government expects everyone worldwide to follow (look at some of their expectations to foreign countries)

Re: Any of you is married to a Mexican or Latin people?

just wondering...

I know an Armenian is so fun. We kind of like each other. But honestly, I am not sure this can work in the next stage, since I learned that Armenian people is not very open to other cultures.

any comments?

Thanks...

It doesn’t matter that Armenian people are not very open to other cultures. It only matters that the both of you are…

Two people can make it work if they love & respect each other no matter their backgrounds… at least this is what I like 2 think... I for 1 would like to marry an Armenian 4 many reasons, but if he happens to be anything other than Armenian I know my heart will win cuz in matters such as these my heart will always control my mind...

My friend‘s sister who is an Armenian married a Mexican… They are very happy together…
