    yeah yeah

    The pedantic cultural education stuff is very nice, but this guy is involved with a white American woman, and is keeping her a secret because she is the made of the wrong stuff. He is screwing her around - plain and simple. This is an adult woman, not a little girl, and by the usual cultural practices (traditions) of the US - where they live - she doesn't have to put up with this. Please stop excusing this - it is only naked force being used in a racist fashion.

    —remember, you're not going to live forever
