Factors that lead to intercultural marriage.

Salam Ramadhan and hi to all...Its been 9 days of ramadhan and i'm blessed with the day given. Lose no time,today i'll write the factors that lead to intercultral marriage..Why they chose to married a person that comes from different culture,background,religion and etc.It is somehow must be a reason,right?In my opinion an essential factor that lead to this marriage is when a person is imigrate to other country.The chances to meet new people is big,so it is not impossible for them to get know each other and fell in love.Automatically they become the product of intercultural marriage. Besides that, they will found out that the other partner own a different personalities from their cultural,for example they claim that western people people are more liberal and open-minded,thus they are attract with these characteristic. Next, another factor that lead to intercultural marriage is because it is easy to settle down with the people that also comes from their community with common understanding,experiences.
It come to the end..That's all from me..Wassalam..
Feel free to leave any comment ya! ;)

the challenges continue... IN-LAWS et al!

SALAM & HI DEAR ALL..

First and foremost I'd like to show facts on interrcultural/interracial marriage in the USA some years ago...

... positively increasing and I'm sure they'll be keep increasing...

So back to to our discussion,


As I've mentioned before, intercultural couples would have the similar problems as the typical within-culture marriage: in-laws and society. Lets say if it's hard for the spouses to cope with each other's tradition and beliefs, how would their families take it? Thus what about the perception of the society in where they live?


This external 'acceptance factor' is sometimes the worst that could get in the way of the marriage. It's when the family of the spouses respectively rejected the idea of interracial marriage, or even when they allowed it, they displayed their lack of acceptance through their treatment towards their son/daughter/brother/sister-in-law whose origin is by far too different for their liking.


To make matters worse, the respective familes feel that they have the idea of how to help this 'anomaly' (as the families would think) couple in raising their families such as how to raise the kids and how to live without forgetting their tradition in their daily lives. This peculiar involvement might be the cause of the pitfall of the marriage.


Moreover, some parts of the society still have prejudice and discrimination against any sorts of things regarding interracial issues. For this I'd like to share some polls carried out about this topic:




That'd be all for now... till next time. World peace!

Is intercultural marriage more complicated?

People would usually think, "intercultural marriage is definitely more challenging than the usual type". Now, if we come to think of it, intercultural marriage or intracultural marriage or royal marriage or 'normal' marriage is basically a marriage, isn't it? They would still have the 'normal' problems like other marriage couples have, such as economy stability, understanding, and even the traditional in-laws matters! (Well, they said when you marry your partner, you're also married to the family. Do you think so?)
Nevertheless, it consists of two people with different backgrounds, in some very contrary from each other, but they decided to cope with each other when they tied the knots. So the issues they, some not all, have to deal with is surely much more complicated.

Let's see... Firstly, the factor that stands out the most would be different backgrounds that the spouses have. This is because it reflects the social behaviour that his/her partner has. At first, the couple would try their best to try to learn to give and take as much as they can, but when the honeymoon years are over, things would go otherwise. Some problems would arise regarding each other's traditions or beliefs. However, I do believe that there are many examples of successful intercultural marriages examples to look up to. They will have to face the music and overcome it. Didn't they say, love conquers all? ;)
So much to say, so little time. We'll continue the talk on this, alright. Till next time.

Barriers in Intercultural Marriage

ASSALAMUALAIKUM and Good afternoon to all. In my second post in this blog,I'm Amalina will signify the barries and the solutions that can be taken to overcome it. According to Christine Benlafquih, one of the barriers that occurs in intercultural marriage is prejudices and social attitudes, sometimes newlywed might hide their feeling or opinion if they dislike or hard to accept certain things of their spouse.This common aspect must be avoided and it is useful if each partner understand each other culture well before they get married. Besides that, other barriers that be found is religion conflict. It might take some time to spouse to comprehend with their new religion if they converted to other religion. If this happen,their partner must be patient and understand that people don't change easily and quickly. They also must be supportive. In addition, language barrier also plays a role in intercultural marriage as communicatin is very important. Each partner should learn their spouse language,s they could communicate well in their life.
I think that's all from now. Till i'll write again. Wassalam.
Amalina.


thanks amalina...
hai friend, i'm Bahtair and maybe second post in here, Amalina have said many things here and all of what she said is correct. I want to add little more things here that the barriers in this intercultural marriages, what i want to share is the barriers between famaly. What i mean here is some family are disagree white hwo are want to mariage other people from other culture.
why they wont?
The reason for this barriers is they scare that thier culture will destroy and terminate. They thinks this marriage can make thier own son will forget thier own culture and they thinks thier son will follow the other culture. That type of thinks is not good.
Other reason is they scare that thier son will change thier religon, ofcourse with intercultural marriage, the people need to change their religon but i thinks just in islam. In islamic religon if some people in other culture and religon want to marriage each other, person hwo is in other religon need to change thier religon to islamic religon, so that maybe the course that why there are to many people in other culture is not agree with intercultural marriage.

that what my opinion is, if have any eror on my grammar or vocabulary hope its better in other time..

Variegated Life, Isn't It?

Salam and g’day people! J This is the blog of ‘intercultural marriage’ for English for Social Science course (FSSK UKM, us) mainly to express and discuss our opinions (and yours too!) on this particular topic which is not really alien to Malaysians or most parts of the globe. Surely different individuals have different perspectives.

First thing's first: I am Nur Hana Samsudin (simply address me as Hana) typing from my Keris Mas room, an English Language Studies (ELS) Program student, a first year one in FSSK UKM. Apparently I AM the forth member of the group; the last to join I guess. So people, by all means we’d really like to know what you think about intercultural marriage. So do share your point of view, alright… Have an awesome day!
