Stories of Us - Part 1 - How much does difference matter these days?

...Omonoba...
Our people say:
Yoruba: Àbúrò kì í pa ẹ̀gbọ́n nítàn.
English: The younger person does not give the older person history lectures. - Yoruba Proverb.

I realize that we do not have very much control over who we meet. We do however, have a slightly greater control over we start talking to, choose to date and perhaps eventually marry - In general. I am curious as to whether present generations are actually more liberal than older ones or it is just a facade. I know responses may not match actions but I think I will get a general idea. I''m sure many other people are in this camp. So, due to many conversations I have had with friends and family, I have decided to ask you all - my beautiful readers - this question.

Question: Are you / would you (genuinely) be open to marry someone of a distinctly different race,  faith, culture, tribe,  etc ? (If you are interested in getting married / are married)


A little help.
In order of preference, rank your willingness to marry someone of:
* The same tribe
* A very similar tribe ( Eg., Igbo and Ikwerre are very similar)
* A different tribe / culture (Eg., Fulani and Ijaw are very distinct)
* A nearby country (Eg., Nigeria / Cameroon are very close to each other and share similarities)
* A different broad ethnicity (Eg., Black and Asian are different broad ethnicities of the human race)
* A different faith (Eg., Christianity and Buddhism are distinctly different faiths)


I mean:
How much does the variety of our differences matter these days. It seems to matter less and less but is this just a facade?


I understand that the readers of my blog are a small number of people but from what I know so far, there is a broad opinion pool.

Oya, my people, may una shoot!
