I prefer to build a serious relationship with someone whose background and values closely align with mine.

I'm concerned about hereditary health risks and want to make informed choices about who I start a family with; I worry about the possibility of passing on conditions that run in my family.

I've observed that my parents had different life experiences and opportunities compared with some other groups.

I couldn't choose my parents.

But I can make choices about my own family and the partner I select.
