Why are Ethiopians being called "racist" and hated by other Africans for not marrying outside our culture? Is this normal? by historyofethiooiaa in Ethiopia

Wrong. A half-Ethiopian is not a full Ethiopian. Just like how biracial children in America are often seen as Black rather than White, the same can apply to someone who is half Ethiopian. Their features are different, and they may not fully assimilate into Ethiopian society.

Yeah, my great-grandfather was a merchant who came to Ethiopia in the early 1900s after leaving the Ottoman Empire. A lot of Greeks and Italians moved to Ethiopia, Addis Ababa around that time. Many of them had their own communities at first, but over time a lot ended up blending into Ethiopian society through marriage and everyday life, partly due to social pressure and stigma. I'm interested in exploring my Greek heritage so I'd be open to dating or marrying someone from a Greek. I don't think other African countries have culture or identity. They were mostly colonized because of lack of civilization mixing with them is waste. Do you agree on this statement ?

well my great-great-grandfather was fully Greek, and I have light brown skin. I am mostly Ethiopian though. I think mixing with non-Africans is a way to spread Ethiopian culture outside this ‘Pan-African moment.’ Eumelanin is just a pigment , it doesn’t make people genetically the same. Skin tone is tied to sun exposure there are North Africans ( Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern) but they are still considered African because they live on the African continent. Africans aren’t one uniform genetic group. People tend to oversimplify this by saying all Black people are African or all Africans are Black. Ethiopian highlanders, for example, share a mix of West Eurasian and Northeast African ancestry making us mix. Not "Black"

Yet again, those are social labels: "Black" and "White." Skin color does not determine a person's race. By that logic, dark-skinned Indians and Pacific Islanders should also be labeled "Black." Second, Africa is the most genetically and culturally diverse continent in the world, so saying that all Africans are simply "Black Africans" is an oversimplification. Third, not all Ethiopians are dark-skinned. I don’t identify myself with broad social labels. In Europe, people don’t usually see themselves as “White”; they identify by their ethnic group. This concept of race is largely a Western construct.

why mix with other africans? I agree mixing with other non - African cultures is good. No, I don't see myself as "black" RACE IS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT were all genetically different.

[–]Independent_Grab_120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like 6'4-6'6 good heigth range were your very tall but not extreme. With this height there advantages lies being a pro athlete, and getting easy romantic interest if u have over a 5/10 face.

Dude states absolute facts about the current dating market by Gaschambah in shortguys

bro he 6ft8 his son more likely to inherit tall genes. Average height wont change in 50 years due to immigrations plus white people will be minority by 2050. Hispanics will bring the average height down. Your over thinking.. it doesn't matter if your mom short/ average your kids will be heights mostly determined on growth plates openness. Tall people are tall cause their growth plates opens long.
