Re: mixed marriages in the UK Somalis

Somalis are a very old ethnic group and any admixture (all humans are a results of admixture between different groups) event we have had is as old as between 10,000-20,000 years ago. We haven't had any substantial admixture since then and if anything pure ethnic Somalis are close to being inbred at the genetic level. We're talking about a population which belongs to only 2 different
Y-chromosomes majority of the times (the Neolithic EV32 & T-M184 at rates over ~90%)....that's extremely non-diverse.

Anyway going back to the topic, honestly I'm tired about all this mixed marriage talk, all I see where I live in the U.K is Somalis with other Somalis. I think I can count using my fingers the amount of Somalis in an inter-racial marriage that I have come across whilst on the streets.
