    stereotypes

    I cant speak for everyone Portuguese but I find you make some very unfair generalisations in your posts. In my Portuguese extended family, none of my sibblings nor my cousins, are married to other Portuguese people. My nephew and niece are half black (their father is Jamaican) and when my nephew was three, we all took him to the Azores on holiday to visit family and he wasnt treated any differently than any other child there. He was actually very spoiled by everybody. Oddly enough, the only person who made a big deal about his racial mix was a cousin of my mother's who lived in the United States for most of his life. Please dont paint the whole country as being racist just based on your experience. That is wrong.
