  • Summary

  • The culture in which we grow up is for the most part invisible; we hardly even notice it until we're forced to step outside and see it from a fresh perspective. A large amount of what we do, say, think, believe, and to some extent, feel - is shaped by the culture we come from. Now the challenge that is expected out of a cross-cultural relationship or marriage is coping with these differences when it comes to the belief systems, rituals, cooking, clothing, etc. Lifestyle disagreements are often an expected consequence of cross-cultural marriage by our elders. These disagreements can sometimes be sparked by resentment because one or both partners or their respective parents feel their culture is being rejected or attacked when the other refuses to follow their customs or traditions. The fear of loss of one's culture and tradition leads to the most common norm of discouraging marriage in a different culture altogether. Thus, claiming to protect it. In this episode listen to a couple who are challenging this very norm, who come from distinctly diverse backgrounds yet are together sharing a love for the people they are and not their cultural identities. Hear our host, Subhalakshmi in conversation with this couple for whom the differences never mattered. What mattered, was each other's company. Tune in now!
