In the Western Hemisphere - especially very multiracial nations like the US and Brazil - White-Black marriages still often attract more stigma and criticism than other types of mixed marriages. Even the most hardcore WN at the very least wouldn't usually object quite as much to his/her child marrying an East Asian person compared to a Black person. (Assuming he hasn't married a Thai or Filipina himself. )
For that matter, in much of the Global South where neither White nor Black people are native or the dominant ethnic group - Japan, China, India, Pakistan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Mexico etc. - even the most conservative/tribalistic/nationalistic parents at the very least would usually find their child marrying a White person less objectionable than a Black person, even leaving aside those who'd outright praise it.
Therefore, does a non-Black person marrying a Black person need much more courage and rebelliousness than usual in much of the world?
