Imz, when you say: "I've seen western marriages run off in 48 hrs.." are you implying that there are no short-lived Asian marriages?
Fact: I know an East African Asian man, a Pakistan-originating family who moved to Britain around 20 years ago.
His father told him: It's okay for you to date English women to get some 'experience' (nudge nudge wink wink) but you can't marry one.
So much for those high standards when it comes to pre-marital sex. It's bad if a woman has sex before marriage, but it's not only accepted, it's practically obligatory for an otherwise respectable muslim man to have sex before marriage -- so long as it's with white women and not his own kind -- wouldn't want to sully their reputation!
He eventually got married -- it was an arranged marriage, it wasn't forced, i.e. he had a chance to meet his future bride and agree to the union.
When I last met him, he told me his wife left him after only two weeks and he was in the process of getting divorced.
So that's an Asian marriage that lasted only two weeks.
Apparently, it wasn't the only instance either. I was informed there were other cases where brides left their husbands soon after the wedding, taking their dowry with them. As you know a dowry can amount to thousands upon thousands of pounds. And there are some unscrupulous Asian women out there who will marry in order to carry out a scam ripping their groom off to the tune of the dowry.
Do I look down on all Asian men or all Asian women because of the bad behaviour of a very small minority? No.
So how about giving a similar amount of respect to the many white women who you're unfairly slagging off?
