Exploring Marriage and Exogamy Among the British-Guyanese

Abstract

In spite of affirmations of pluralism, Caribbean family scientists regularly center on the Afro-Caribbean families and don't agreeably address the issues of the British Caribbean individuals, who have been living in the region for well over a century. It is indistinct from surviving writing whether individuals of British inception in the Caribbean have remained ethnically isolated or have mixed into the overwhelming Creole culture of the Caribbean. This paper looks at whether the British-Guyanese vary from the other Guyanese in their attitudes on marriage and perspectives on exogamy. The most normal purpose behind marriage and advantage from marriage for the British-Guyanese is utilitarian as opposed to romantic, when contrasted with the other Guyanese. The British-Guyanese hold progressively traditionalist perspectives on significance of marriage and perspectives on exogamy, however there were clear sexual orientation contrasts too regardless of ethnic association. These attitudinal contrasts about marriage recommend that a portion of the British -Guyanese qualities are not the same as that of the overwhelming Creole culture, which might be ascribed to their social characteristics. Henceforth the idea Guyanization has all the earmarks of being a continuous procedure as opposed to a finished marvel, in any event in the familial area of the British-Guyanese.
