My family is Indian Catholic but extremely diverse with all sorts of people: White, Black, Hispanic, East Asian, Jewish, Sikh, Hindu, Buddhist, Atheist, etc. who have married my siblings and cousins.
Yet, it's my stupid friends/coworkers who insist I need to marry someone of my skin color. Not race/culture/religion, just generally brown skin since we're all the same 
So they verbally object when I date someone who is white or black. And they try to set me up with Middle Eastern Muslims, Indian Hindus, etc. Skin color is the worst way to match people.
My family thinks it's hilarious. They like to tell me that if I don't marry someone soon regardless of race, religion, or even gender 
they'll arrange my marriage just to irritate me. Since that's what Indian families are stereotyped to do.
