Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
You don't see many Asian women with white men for this reason. Although it is becoming more common with 2nd and 3rd generation British Indians. And black women.
I doubt you'd see many Pakistani Muslim girls marring outside the family let alone their race...
If that's trolling, perhaps you could suggest a list of sanitised, approved subjects we can talk about?
Chips are "Plant-based" no matter how you cook them
Donald Trump needs kicking out of a helicopter
I'm personally responsible for all global warming
I'd eat her shit I would. She's sooooooooo hot!!
Everytime you lash out with profanity and exaggerated offence, you make me think I'm talking with this kid...
As as for the 50% thing, remember.. I live out in the sticks. Most people do. I'm basing my assessment on my experiences here. Just because you live in a huge multicultural metropolis where every other face is from a different culture and it's all cool and groovy doesn't make it so for the rest of the country. Until about twenty years ago, a black person would have stood out like an alien down here. I grew up in London in the late 60's and early 70's and most of my friends were Afro-Caribbean or Asian. When we moved to Swansea, they were conspicuous by their absence.
People who haven't been exposed to lots of different cultures are often wary of them, which was quite obviously my point and I went on to explain exactly that. You however chose to focus on one word and have a tantrum, calling me a wanker. Really ?

Dont forget that the majority of ad companies are London based and are probably basing the ads on personal experience: London is massively multiethnic. In my daughter's class at primary school she was the only child from a family that could claim to be more than a couple of generations old British-born, out of 30 kids. Her only "white" friend was Romanian.
Well, seeing as my ex-wife was of Black-Trinidadian descent and she and her two sisters all married white blokes, I suggest you're not looking very hard.
I think it's a bit more than that, they must cast these adverts very carefully and there is definitely a conscious decision to paint a particular picture of modern multicultural Britain. Whether that's political correctness, some kind of positive discrimination, simple right-on-ness or just a calculated attempt to appeal to the widest cross-section of the buying public, I don't know.
Whatever it is, it's probably just a phase and nobody will think about it any more in a few years' time.
To some extent, these cuddly multicultural families seem to have supplanted another advertising cliché - families with super-capable, multi-tasking mums and clueless idiotic lumps of dads - so that's probably a step forward.
