Interracial marriages are among features that characterize the post-apartheid South Africa.Although nothing of serious concern has so far been said about such marriages, a generalremark from many white people involved in these marriages is that they find their Africanpartners quite romantically poor. Several black women in such magazines as “Tribute,” and“Pace”, Drum, and “True Love” also express the same sentiment. Challenged by this state ofaffairs, this article is an attempt to explain this in terms of conflicting worldviews. It arguesthat many of the long-term attitudes with which Africans are identified are less related to adeficiency in technical knowledge or to skin pigmentation than to the fact that the dominantworldview of the corporate culture is in conflict with their African World view in manyrespects |
