My family doesn't really care either. Of course they would probably be thrilled if any of us ended up with another Asian, but at the same time, this isn't NYC or SF where there are a ton of Asians around. The selection pool here is slim, and they recognize that.

I've never heard of the Indians being so strict--maybe my friend's families are more progressive than most.
