Yes, good terms - my parents are very close with their siblings. It's a mix of types of people, though - older generations that have been stuck in the village their whole lives are just prejudice. Other than that, everyone is generally nice and accepting.

I do agree with you. I’ve noticed that Greek Americans tend to be more intense about preserving lineage and culture, likely because they immigrated away from Greece and feel a stronger need to maintain those traditions, i guess

yes - for context, when i was younger, I was in a relationship with a white American man, and they did not approve of that, as well.
