Armenian with a not-Armenian girl

Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!

2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.

- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.

8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

Im really surprising when some armenian father giving his daughter to other race boy. It is incredibly! Shok for me. Sorry ladies who married other race boys.

Sig's point is well taken. It's actually the fathers (mom too) place to raise a RESPONSIBLE child. One who is deserving of respect. The parents (both) cannot think for their adult children. But rather teach the children how to think and make decisions for themselves.
As to the comment "we need to keep the birth rate high". Gotta disagree. That to me is a terrible reason to have a child.
Also, if we can't afford at this time to properly take care of the children we have (not to mention the rest of the population) well I think you can fill in the rest of that sentence.
Also, you might consider this... Our planet now has over 7 billion people. That's not sustainable. Armenia is one of the very few countries that is not overcrowded (that's a plus, not a negative).
We actually are not short on Armenians. It's just that most have been scattered to the wind.
We are in a incredibly tough position, but in my opinion having babies or bring babies into this world as fast as we can is a rather selfish thing to do. That's the kind of thing a kurd or turk would do without blinking an eye. Let us not be like them but rather strive to be decent human beings. We are after all Armenians.

Re: Armenian with a not-Armenian girl

I myself have a bit of Italian in me (My mother is half Italian-Half Armenian and my father is full on Armo) and I was raised in a traditional Armenian household with an Armenian family, so I consider myself Armenian. To be honest, I would prefer an Armenian girl just to help out the nation...Xenophobia when it comes to families is not always a bad thing, but its also not a good thing...Since so many of us were killed off/Assimilated I do think it might be better to marry an Armenian girl, just to contribute. Of course the two must love each other but a preference isn't bad.

I think that should actually be: "Because most probably, when you marry in Armenia, the chances of your kids growing up in Armenia, or your family never moving from Armenia are much MUCH less".

Even a population full of Arsen's baby-producing-machines won't solve that problem.

I don't mean to discourage anyone whose not fully Armenian. Armenian is not a race it's a national-cultural identity. One of my best friends is half Armenian from Uruguay, and he does more for Armenia, and is more of an Armenian than any other Armenian I've ever met. But unfortunately, that's just an exception.

Now in Tajikistan are not so big armenian diaspora. And they all mixed with tajiks. For example my 2 brothers are married on tajik girls, and their babies speaking tajik as native, and 2 of my aunts are married on tajik mans, and ofc they are speaking tajik lang too. And most armenians in TJK are speaking tajik as native.
Im not against mexican, tajik, and other natiinalities, but if we will keep mixed marry we will die.
