Interracial Relationships: Pros, Cons & Everything in Between
Listen now
Description
On this week's episode, get the tea behind Steph and Tina's relationships as they dish about the pros and cons of being in an interracial relationship. They'll share how they've navigated the language and cultural barriers, share their immigrant stories and Asia's education system (their bfs would not have made it), and what they've learned about themselves along the way. Tina dishes on how you can get closer to the parents if they're korean (hint: k-dramas are your best friend) and laments on differences in food preferences that prevent her from using as much fish sauce as her heart desires. Steph dances a fine line between parties and reading, and struggles with the Mexican custom of greeting one another with hugs and kisses amongst loved ones (if only they did air hugs). Despite all the differences and struggles, the girls truly appreciate the value of being immersed in another culture and the growth that has been facilitated through such an invaluable experience by learning how to live life through a wider lens aka you can read AND still enjoy parties!
