It has always been an interesting symphony looking at this subject.
I would think it is more adequate to use both terms: intercultural and interracial.
Which race and which race?
The noticeable ratio between women's preference and men's preference, and the reasons behind it.
The comparison between the period of intercultural/interracial relationship and same race relationship. Why it is often not lasting.
In relationships, it is natural to seek after common interest. Having same cultural background generally provides a lot of common interests. Consequently, having less problems of differences. To isolate love from such, is the foolishness short of eternal value.
If a couple think that they could have a culture of their own, I believe they are way over their heads.
However, having a wide span of interest, bridging over to other cultures, that is a different story.
Without researching or looking hard, I can easily find a caucasian man or perhaps any non-asian man who has great interest in the Chinese culture. However, this is not so when it comes to women.
As far as whether there's any possibility at all to have a young caucasian woman (I choose the categories of Caucasian and youth because it would present the most unlikely case) who would take an interest in the Chinese culture seriously, I had always believed such exists in theory, until yesterday.
While greatly admiring these individuals, I am also aware of the danger of Noah's time drawing near.
