And we should ask ourselves why these Marvel writers keep purposely throwing shade on a marriage between a black man and a black woman...because this is what it boils down to. This, combined with all of the anti-black man with black woman pairings going on on television and in the movies (CW, I'm specifically looking at you...THE FLASH show in particular, which has 3 black members of the same family in romantic relationships with non-black characters), shows a real bias against black man + black woman romantic relationships.
The human race arose from black men romantically paired with black women, but in 2016, there continues to be so many people in the entertainment industry who do all they can to suppress relationships between black men and black women.

you betta preach. i swear whenever you see a black man on any entertainment media it appears he is paired with a white woman or anythinv other than a black woman.
but specifically to the comics, Captain marvel was with Rhodney. Miles is dating some other chick, luke cage is with jessica, North star is with a black guy (i know this isn't a heterosexual relationship). However, I cant think of one mainstrean black male with a black female. BP 7 was just as everyone predicted no action, and virtually no dialogue between him and storm.
im kinda over marvel they mishandle storm all the time, and they still miss opportunities with her and tchalla. it's pretty pathetic because they both deserve better.

I don't think people are mad at interracial relationships, they're upset with the way that black characters (specifically in media that are not necessarily geared towards black audiences) are almost exclusively paired with non-black counterparts. Interracial couples are fine and it's good to see them present (I was born of one and adopted by another), but there's a severe lack of black love in the current output of sci-fi/fantasy media. I suspect on the television side it's part of a larger problem with creating and casting characters of color. If you have a token poc, you're more likely to pair them up with one of you're existing white characters than you are to introduce and develop another character just to be the love interest for a character that is likely background anyway.
The break-up between Storm and Black Panther gets dragged through the mud nearly every time they're on page together. Maybe it's because I haven't been reading X-Men or Spider-Man, but I can't think of another couple that's been dragged like this in the 15 years I've been reading comics. People love to build on the drama between Hank and Jan, but I never felt like writers were doing it to disrespect the relationship or the characters involved

It was ridiculous.
He wanted to have T'challa and Namor fight there and how he did it was absurd.
I don't midn the breaking down because he couldn't pull the trigger and because his ancestors abandoned him. But lashing out at Namor afterwards was dumb.

Hell, we did not find out the marriage was bad until one page was written that said they were seeing a counselor and another when Ororo called T'Challa a bad husband. That was it.

T'Challa attacking Namor for doing what T'Challa himself was going to do 30 seconds earlier was kinda hypocritical. And under different less emotional circumstances, it probably would have went down very differently, as all of them essentially were at their breaking point in the story by this point.
That said, this sort of behavior does sort of come from being used to being in control. People like the Illuminati are used to making the decisions for others... but they're not used to others making decisions for them. They're fine deciding what's right or everyone else but they don't like it when others decide things for them. And that's sort of what we're seeing here. The same reason everyone always gets mad at the Illuminati for making decisions or everyone else is why T'Challa was mad at Namor or making that decision for the group (even though technically it was already a decision the group agreed to).
The other issue is that I suspect T'Challa was angry simply because Namor brought himself to do something that T'Challa couldn't bring himself to do And on some level he was angry at himself. He knew detonating the bomb was necessary at this point ... but he couldn't sacrifice his principals to do what needed to be done. Namor could do it, and he seemingly did it with ease (though I'm sure it was incredibly difficult for him to do it regardless of how he acted). The fact that it was Namor made it that much worse.
But Hickmans story wasn't necessarily designed to make these guys look good (really no Illuminati story ever is for the most part). They were placed in an impossible situation.

You can make an arguement some of the things Chuck Austen and Bendis did with Pym was disrespectful to the relationship and characters (at least concerning Pym ... Jan not so much). And that marriage happened decades ago.
Granted the Pym/Jan thing was much much uglier, while Storm and T'Challa ended things on much better terms. So it's less likely BP and Storms marriage will have that sort of lasting backlash... but nonetheless it probably won't get swept under the rug and forgotten about either. At least not anytime soon.

Yes and no.
Prior to Doom War T'Challa threw his wife to the wolves (in his words) when he told her to surrender herself to people that ended up planning to execute her. And for Man Without Fear he abandoned his wife to go find himself in Hells Kitchen. In those stories Storm was 100% okay with those decisions. To retcon things so that Storm ended up NOT being 100% okay with some of that IMO isn't that much of a leap. It's still a retcon, but there was a little bit for the AvX writers to play with if that was the direction they wanted to go.

[QUOTE=TooFlyToFail;2373302]It happens with Pym and Janet every once in awhile, too.[/QUOTE]
Pym and Janet were an interesting one, because I do think at one point marvel did sort of move on past the Jan/Pym drama. They actually even got back together.
But Chuck Austen opened up that can of woms, and both McDuffie and Bendis decided to run with it afterwards. I think the problem Pym has (which other characters who have had their marriages ended for one reason or another) is that the the fallout of Pyms marriage is one of the only things about the character a lot of people actually find interesting (building Ultron being the other thing). So it's sort of a go-to story beat for Pym.

And all the Storm fandom saw what the Wonder Woman fans saw execept A)Black Panther isn't not an undisputed A-Lister like Superman is and B) they didn't even get a shared book title out of it like Wonder Woman got.

Man, perhaps it's because I didn't grow up with comics or I'm relatively new to the comic game compared to a lot of people in CBR and other forums, but--your explanation aside--I still don't know why so many people caught that much feelings about the marriage, especially with the history T'Choro already had via Clairemont and Priest. I would've never believed it if I didn't arrive here before the big reboot. It's hilarious on one hand, but reaaaaallllly weird on another.
That's said, I'm at the point that if the X-Office want to pair Storm with someone else, just do it and get on with it. Four years later, and we're still getting shots at the marriage. It's becoming very old and rather lame at this point. Especially being that Storm can't even show up in the BP movies anyway.

They did pair her up with Wolverine, but the timing probably wasn't great as far as Storm was concerned since he died pretty quickly. I think they're teasing a thing with Old Man Logan but I suspect they'll probably wait till the REAL Logan returns (and I'm sure he will eventually).
But generally speaking people get passionate about their ships, both for and against. Say what you want about the couple, but they did manage to instill that from both ends of the spectrum. Marvel just couldn't translate that into sales in any meaningful way (a team book with them being on it might have worked as we saw in FF but oh well).
