I was searching for something unrelated on UESP and came across this:
"It is currently unclear whether a successful union between Khajiit and other races may occur, for no well-documented cases exist despite rumors. The divergent appearance and mannerisms of the Khajiit often lead bigoted members of other races to look down on them."
Coupled with the fact that the Khajiiti themselves acknowledge that they're not allowed into the cities, hence their Caravans, I'm thinking that it was a lore-based decision. If that is indeed the case, I'm still bummed but I can live with it, since I do love me some lore.
But it makes me wonder...I can't marry a Khajiit in Skyrim, but I'm a Khajiit and someone can marry...me??
So what race are you, and what race did you marry? Did race play any part in the decision, for Roleplay or lore purposes?
