Re: Brides / Grooms who have moved to UK From Pakistan after wedding
Yes, it was and likewise I find you intriguing but one thing I'm not a guy.
I don't wish for world peace because thats impossible but I don't understand why one has to be prejudice against another just because of their faith even if they are the same nationality.

Yes, there are a lot of people who think like that you just have to ignore them and laugh at them if they are being retarded.
Its unfortunate that there are so many people who go overseas but don't care to learn the language or culture in the new country they live in but they get offended if anyone finds offense with them bringing their culture into their country.
Why must one only speak Chinese/Japanese/Urdu in an English country? I see a lot of Asians who don't bother learning and just stick to the community and wonder why people stereotype/hate them so much.
You want people to stop being racist? Talk to them, try to understand where they are coming from.
anyway one doesn't have to be educated to be more tolerant they just have to be more exposed. I don't really care for racism but in some aspects people bring it onto themselves when they don't even bother trying to learn the language in the respective country and find the easier option wether it be Pakistan, UK or even China.
Bigots will always find a reason to justify their racism. No one brings racism on themselves.

"For instance I saw two african-americans on the train in Japan talking loudly in English and drinking alcohol (its the middle of the day...) Don't you think that because of these people that most people get thrown racist slurs?"
And I have seen whites engage in such behavior also. Never thought of labeling the entire white community because the actions of a few. So answer is, No.
Re: Brides / Grooms who have moved to UK From Pakistan after wedding
Incoming in 2 months the following threads:
1. Hate my in laws.
2. Hate the UK and my in laws
3. Hate my hubby and how he always supports my in laws
4. My MIL is a biatch!
That and all the shameless flaunting of all the **** they're buying with their in-laws cash (or husbands' if he's not relying on his dad still for help). You'll see their posts in wedding forum and fashion forum, ke hai dekho maine ye ye liya hai. Mein tho sirf HSY se kappre silaa thi hoon.
Which is why they moved out of Pakistan in the first place. Most of 'em are going to be bored housewives.
Re: Brides / Grooms who have moved to UK From Pakistan after wedding
Sorry. I'm just bitter.
But it's a fact. Most desi women, whereas they have the ability, are just not carrying their dead weight.
It was one thing when our moms sat at home; they were just raised in that submissive culture.
There's just no excuse for it now; plenty of opportunities for women to be productive. I didn't read the whole thread, cuz I had to go and beat my head against the wall. But most of what I saw is gripes about getting socially accepted into a community.

Re: Brides / Grooms who have moved to UK From Pakistan after wedding
but you know economy is crap in UK unless you're a teacher, nurse, doctor etc it wouldn't be easy to get a job.
besides its easy for you to say to get a job because you already have one, single and don't know what its like to live in a totally foreign country because you've been brought up in US.
Its tough adjusting for those who have migrated everything is new and what may be ok in Pakistan may not apply in UK and what may be the norm in UK not be in Pakistan
get my drift?
I can't imagine the stress that one would go through just by moving out of their country for the first time as an adult by themselves. Getting a job doesn't guarantee being socially accepted it just adds more stress. Going to the local Mosque, family gatherings, husbands friends etc however would be several other ways to be able to be socially accepted and prevent being bored.
