cross culture Marriages...taboo..!?

recently read this article Marrying the greek family about cross culture Marriages. Initial thoughts, same applies for we indians as well... Iam no expert on marriage and not married but was think, logically what could happen.

Marrying someone from another nation can be exciting, interesting and challenging. ofcourse nothing is correct or wrong when its come to marriage - few praticle diffculties are:

• understanding/communciation : very very big issues. hard time understanding each other's humor. imagine explianing the humor to one another...! discussion with either parents/in-laws are almost impossible (this is very diffcult if even understand the language)
• home court advantage :If a foreign man marries an American woman and they live in the United States, she would be cast in the leadership role in some aspects of their relationship
• cultural & religious beliefs : one of must needs to give a little and adjust a little bit more. Often, it is the person with the least strict beliefs. Religion is a thorny issue. (confused child/child raising issues..)

Marriage requires to give up a great deal of freedom because many have to be taken jointly. But problems that be set cross-cultural or inter-caste marriages are the same as those faced by others after all Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus...
