Anthropologically speaking when does a marriage become interracial?

[Oliver109]

You could see it that way, but the man (my dad) was 1/4 roma and im not sure all or most white nationalists would accept him marrying a white woman, he could not post on Stormfront for example, he would be deemed non-white, despite his mainly europoid looks?

I think they both look basically non white but still two different ethnicities, maybe like a Tajik marrying a Bangladeshi?

Maybe they look like that but they are not because a tajik is completely unrelated to a bangladeshi its more like a griffe marrying a quadroon or a a indian marrying a anglo indian that is why the question is much more justified then if its just two different non whites like a japanese marrying a kenyan that is not comparable

Lol, it could be like a Gujarati who is light brown marrying a dark Sri Lankan, would it be interracial?

I'd say yes, but interracial scenarios I feel are still very Western-centric. Everything involving unquestioned "whiteness" with, say, 10 percent introgression from Amerindian or ASI is seen as interracial, while anything that's even more interracial from an anthropological perspective is often an open question.

I don't see why it has to be that way, to be consistent.

Gujarati and Sri Lankan are still two different ethnicities, even different nationalities/countries. It would be like a light brown gujarati marrying a dark brown gujarati would it be interracial?

I am not sure how dark Gujis can get but I know that with Bengalis there are some who are barely darker than Cypriots and others who are nearly black, I think it would not be an interracial marriage personally.
