What challenged do you think the caste system caused?
Over time, Hinduism organized India's society into groups called castes. A caste is a social class based on a person's ancestry. Under such a system, people are born into a particular caste, which determines the jobs they can hold and whom they can marry. The Caste System still influences Indian life, although laws now forbid unfair treatment of "lower" castes.

Why do some Asians prefer to have relationships with people are half Asian?
I don't think they do from experience. Half Asians would be known as "Half Caste" and in Asian culture they are called some very derogatory names such as "Tatio-ora" (Punjabi). It means something like someone of no roots. As a half caste you would be considered as someone of no status and therefore people from "respectable families" would not wish to marry or intergrate with such people.

How was the brahmins behavior toeards others?
The brahmins are the highest caste, the priests. The priests are traditionally meant to own nothing and live off the charity/benevolence of others. However, over the generations they have become highly educated and therefore quite middle class. As Hindu society is divided into castes, each caste used to stay within their own group and this was also perpetuated by the arranged marriage as marriages are arranged strictly with the caste sysem (including your sub-caste). Originally, the caste system consisted only of 4 castes and there could be movement from one group to another. However, this system became corrupted with the introduction of sub-castes and no intermarriage between castes. Some people think that the brahmins also introduced certain rules which protected their interests by not polluting the system and allowing others to move up into their group (there is information to suggest that it might have been the brahmins who introduced the idea that women could not marry after the death of their husbands as they would probably marry out of the caste system (being a second marriage) for love and this would pollute the system).
