(QUESTION) Why can’t Pakistani men marry Saudi women?

[Dalit]

Besides pakistanis do not marry anything beyond cousin.
Thats why Pakistani heights are decreasing, diseases etc.
This is really sad. First thing people choose is cousin.

This is very wrong in my opinion. Absolute stupidity. We have taken it very literally as far as marrying your own kind is concerned.

Pakistanis should by all means marry each other, but it should be more widespread. Cousin marriages should be discouraged.

It’s better to marry female cousin. They tend to be more conservative & less modern (especially living in Saudi), which is a huge plus.

But if you chose some thing else, Watch out for modernized girls.

My female cousin wear conservative dress in Saudi but when she visited Europe, she wears modern dress. She wear hijab when visiting Indonesia with her dad and mother though.

There is picture when she visited countries outside Saudi and all her Saudi female friends wear modern dress without hijab. They wear expensive dress and no hijab but they still close their legs and wear pants.

As far as Pakistanis are concerned, marrying ANYONE that isn't Pakistani is equally bad. The ONLY time I've seen it work is when Pakistanis marry Iranians or Afghans and funnily enough, they are usually the closest to Pakistanis in terms of race, religion, culture and heritage albeit linguistically different.

Dude just because you had a bad experience (or knew someone’s friend’s cousin’s half-brother’s neighbor’s grand-uncle’s nephew who supposedly had a bad experience) doesn’t mean that all Arab-Pak marriages are bad.

Stop projecting a possibly made-up anecdote on millions of people.

As we see @Indos testifies that it’s a great match.

Nothing wrong with cousin marriages. Please don’t insist our counties to adopt Western ideals.

It’s the Saudi men who are jealous. The girls have their own choices, & evidently they are in-demand of Pakistani men.


Language should be Arabic. The best language to teach kids. There is less letters so it’s much easier man. Don’t argue that Urdu is superior.

Of course the Arab men are protective. It is not just Arab men. We too are protective. We don't like it when we see Pakistani women with other races. So are whites etc. Let's face it, all men are protective and above that jealous or envious when their own women marry outside their own race. Whether that is insecurity or an overreaction I don't know. Probably it is protection instinct.

Interracial marriages are a fairly recent development. It wasn't that mainstream when the world wasn't as global as it is today.

No one is jealous as the Saudis. They make it literally impossible to marry young Saudi college girls. See the laws for yourself. No country has those laws!!!

I don’t want to or plan to marry a Saudi girl, but there’s millions of Saudi girls that want to marry Pakistanis. They are blocking all of them. It’s a violation of human rights.

What is good about cousin marriages? It is unhealthy and risky.

Arabs are pretty racist on this topic, but so are many other nationalities. I know a Turkish brother who gets very upset when he sees his own kind marrying other nationalities and especially darker individuals. He gets abusive.

Saudis along with GCC nations have no doubt a superiority complex. Arab ajam BS exists for a reason.

I am a firm believer of marrying your own kind. My brother is married to a Moroccan, but that was his personal choice. Many problems arise from interracial marriages. Especially when you have children.

This!!!!!!!!!...........it's not just Arab or Turks, even I as a Pakistani feel Pakistanis should ONLY marry their own and reject race-mixing. It is a disgusting immoral act.

Chechens too. They're girls are stunningly gorgeous but if you dare even ask for her hand in marriage her male relatives will kill you once they get their hands on you. Like no kidding, Chechens are the only ones who I believe never marry outside their race/ethnic group. Even their men are strongly discouraged from marrying foreign women even if they be Muslim women.

Gotta respect the Chechens, they protect their own.

 

[El Sidd]

It has various ethnic groups. It is not interracial. The majority of Pakistanis don't marry outside their province. You know this too.

So you believe 4 provinces equal 4 ethnicities?

at best they are lingual groups if one tries to identify them with anything else than administrative units.

The Saudis have the means to be overprotective. We would do the same if we had the means.

Certain nations have racist motives to promote a homogeneous society. Others have religious motives etc. My reasons for promoting same race marriage is to avoid problems at latter stages of the marriage.

but then it would already be of other kind.

My friend, your obession is quite odd hate to tell you this.

Women are not anybody's property that men would feel entitled to protect them from marrying anyone whom they perceive as lesser/lower. They should be allowed to marry whoever they want. But sadly many societies are not that open minded. Some socially make it taboo to marry outside their own and some legally make it so, unfortunately.

Dude!! No country legally prevents international marriages like the Saudis!!

None! Maybe expect for few Gulf countries (which are same really).

Tell me why hasn’t Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, Morocco, Lebanon have same laws for “racial homogeny” like the Saudis. Why don’t they ban marriage of women under 30 to foreigners? Why don’t we refuse visas to foreigners?

Please don’t normalize this autocratic / Hitlerian practice of “racial purity/homogeny”. It’s completely unethical, inhuman, & disgraceful to say the least!

It is not about property. It depends on your culture and background. Family can have a say in both a boys and a girls marriage choice in my opinion. A father and mother should advice. Of course the final decision must be made by the boy and girl.

When I see that my daughter marries a thug of course or a criminal, I am going to prevent and discourage this from happening.

You comparing rich GCC nations with poorer ME and North African nations?

Like I said, rich GCC nations have the means to be strict and prevent their women from marrying outsiders. They are protective and don't promote a culture of interracial marriages.
