Hello Time Flies and welcome to ACF.
I have a feeling we know each other.
I am a mother of two beautiful, happy, well adjusted hapa children..
This thread is very insulting.
That study is bunk. There's no reason why any biracial would be more likely to suffer from psychological disorders.
There are lots of Asian-Caucasians. Where are all these alleged mental health problems? We're not seeing it. They're all pretty normal just like any other people, go figure.

Hello Romero, you are right of course.
I think I know who this person is...he really hates AF/WM couples..
He looks for any excuse no matter how flimsy to make relationships like mine appear unhealthy.
People like him would like nothing better than to see my 13 year marriage fail and my children become unsuccessful adults.
That is so hateful.

Yep, we can see 'em a mile away.
Relationship jealousy is one thing, but interracial relationship jealousy? What's the point? As if certain races are going to stay away from each other just because some nobody doesn't like it. People will be with whoever they want. Mixed couples don't care about race. They're simply together because they want to be together. None of that silly race stuff.

Not true Romero, it's a media conspiracy against Asian men..
I have succumbed to the brainwashing and hate myself...internal racist.
Marrying white was my way of expressing hatred toward myself.
Doesn't that make sense?
Complete sense! What a bizarre coincidence that you just so happen to have a wonderful relationship and children because of it. Oh the horror of it all!

Time Flies left about the same time instigator did..
They had the same insecurities about Asian women in mixed marriages.
They were either really, really pathetic or very clever trolls.

He was one of the dumbest people that have posted here and that includes the likes of Gary Oak and EU. The difference may be that instigator was pretending and the other two are actually that stupid.
Seoulfag you pathetic dork. Are you sure you aren't Hornhung virgin ? You mention me in posts all the time yet I can't be bothered even thinking of you. You are a joke.
Quote from: "Gary Oak"
The dunces always stand out Joak. I've never read anything as inane as you except when you are playing Green Hornet or Rambo Wong. ;)
Quote from: "Gary Oak"
