These do sound like ignorant people. I do wish you success. 
Thanks.

Hi, guys.
	I have some questions about a cultural conflict going on
with some people who are trying to prevent me and my current
boyfriend from marrying.  They state that because we are
both totally blind, we would
1. Not make good parents or are not fit to be parents.
2. Would be unable to perform everyday tasks when indeed we've
both graduated from the Colorado Center for the Blind x number of
months ago.
3. That my boyfriend would be bored and lonely.  These men are
Somali, so they state he should also marry his own kind, surely a
sign of discrimination.  They are not willing to change.  How
should we deal with them?  Thanks.
Beth
