^There are NO Pashtoons in the Midlands, UK?
The last time I passed through, sure, they weren't the majority, but I'd hardly say Pashtoons had no presence.
Where in the Midlands are you?
Are you allowed to travel?
P.S. This topic has been raised before, and ultimately, we are dealing with matters of the heart. The world, in effect, is your oyster.

because of people like you, i specifically pointed out that this post in not directed to me its just an example, clearly you fail to read properly.
were i am there is no pashtuns, aprt from the odd illegal immigrants and 1 or 2 families, infact thers everything but pashtuns and iv moved to the midlands recently. yeh i do travel but whats that got to with knowing pashtuns? i dont go around to other citys getting pashtun girls numbers or getting to know people for marriage. people dont have t-shirts with "im pashtun get to know me"
P.S. like i said its not my issue. this is a matter of the heart, and for your information it may be oyster to you but i think marrying your own people is probly the biggest thing in pashtunwali, so in future get your facts streight.----------

I am very much against the double-standard present in our culture. If it's frowned upon for a Pashtana to marry a non-Pashtun, then it should be the same case for the men.
If Pashtun men start marry non-Pashtun women, that will mean less Pashtun men will be available for Pashtun women, thereby encouraging them to also marry non-Pashtun men. Plus, how do our women feel when they see or hear about Pashtun guys in their communities making non-Pashtun girlfriends and stuff? I doubt they see it as good in any way.
We have a very unique culture, language, and history, and to ensure that it remains that way in the future, I think we should definitely put our own people first when looking for a spouse.

The Quran says that in the sense that you should marry people who are like you in terms of religion. It doesn't make sense to interpret it in a racially prejudiced manner. As Muslims, we are all equal.Originally posted by Manzareh View Post^ yea but in the quran doesnt it say you should marry the people 'like' you.
