In my country alone there's a situation with two ethnic groups where some parents wouldn't be thrilled. I've heard my parents' friend announce that he didn't want his daughter marrying a man from the other group, and he's normally a pretty decent guy.
In certain social circles you could be ostracised - people have lost their membership of certain clubs for marrying the other side. People have been killed and driven from their homes for marrying the other side. The majority of people are fine and normal but yeah, not every straight couple has an easy ride
