Interracial Relationships in scare quotes? "Interracial Relationships" or these so-called relationships - I wonder if that means "some people are now saying it is so, but we're still not convinced"?

In fact, almost everyone in Taiwan is the product of an "Interracial Relationship". It is estimated that at least 80% of the population has some Aboriginal blood (immigration of Han women to the island was banned until 1788 by the Ching Dynasty, so Han men married Aboriginal women). These days, one in five babies born in Taiwan has a mom or dad from a country other than Taiwan.

It's good to see the country is coming to terms with "Interracial Relationships", because it's not nice to go around hating yourself all the time, and it's a bit messed up to see yourself as mysterious or exotic.

I am actually kind of offended by the phrase 'inter-racial relationship'. As if race were an actual classification, as opposed to a subjective grouping by people who have tiny little worlds. Man, woman, babies...what is the problem???
If you find a sweet piece of woman and you like her...and she likes you, I don't see the need for further discussion.
Let's all get busy sowing oats.
Will these so-called experts take a look at how Chinese people can "maintain healthy relationships" amongst their own "race." In Asia, Taiwan's divorce rate is second only to South Korea.
I've heard that the divorce rate is over 30%. It's much higher for mainland Chinese / Taiwanese marriages but hovering around 20% for all transnational marriages.
