a person's culture is not really ED material... there's nothing to discuss/debate... nothing to keep it going once after everyone has posted where they are from...

my family is a very diverse mix. my mum is british west indian. my father is black american and because of my work we have adpoted japanese traditions into our lives. i graduated with a degree in cultural anthropology so culture and language is my life.

*about christmas (when I get married) its gonna be much more than opening gifts in the morning and having christmas dinner at night. christmas day should be a very involved event all day event more than thanksgiving.

hm... that wasn't really culture, but rather, ethnicity... I am in a roman catholic family, but we are not just the average american, but devote and firm. because we are mostly Philippino, we are quite conservative(although I am the one of the most liberal in my family, aside from my sister, who thinks it is, under some circumstances, for a woman to have an abortion, whereas every one of us are 100% firm on banning abortion, hoping it will, in the future be concidered as malice a crime as murduring a 10 yr old child). stressed

I don't know how our heritage got brought into it. Well, actually I do because heritage has a lot to do with culture but all the same I'll post mine.

I'm French-West Indian, Italian, Syrian, & Polish. My heritage. My culture mostly involves things that my family have held as traditions and such but not because of heritage but mostly just because it's something my family holds dear together. We also have recently been adding some Japanese tradition to our own. My mom is really supportive of me and my goal to move to Japan in my near future so she's been trying her hardest to understand what she can and to help me learn japanese.

As for what red was saying, religion-wise I am a Catholic, though unlike red's family most of mine is liberal. But I'm DEFINITELY not getting into that in here >o<

For Christmas, I go to X-mas mass with my mom and siblings (not my dad because he's Episcapalian (I can't spell xD) but he's not practicing) and then we all eat a seafood feast! It's one of my favorite meals all year.

I can't really think of what else to add, so If I think of more yeahh..
