completely westernised brown/asian people.

This reply got me curious.

Would you marry or consider a brown girl/guy for marriage knowing they were completely or mostly westernised. I.e. did not speak their mother tounge, did not even understand a word of [insert urdu, punjabi, other mother-tongue here], did not watch bollywood movies/dramas, did not particularly like asian food, or never dressed up in asian clothes, forced to take the day off and stay at home on eid and stuff etc etc…

I actually know a few people like this as well.

Lols :bummer:

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

As long as a brown girl can do “ankhon se isharay”, I’m fine with other things.

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

nope. gori would be a better investment.

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

but she needs to have watched bollywood movies to do so. Oops.

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

These pictures are just to show what I meant by “akh da ishara”. This trait is genetic not bollywood related!

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

This.

Honestly would rather marry a non-desi than a confused desi.

I don’t think they’re confused though. They’re just not desi. That doesn’t mean that they are clueless about religion.

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

I can speak the language but it’s not a priority for me and neither is the culture.. I don’t see colour or race as a barrier and I see culture as man-made and fluid.. For those reasons it doesn’t hold so much importance..

How exactly is that “confused” :rolleyes: If I were to move to China or Malaysia I’d be fine with my kids being more into their culture or marrying someone from that background, same would apply if we were to live in Africa..

Whilst we’re on the subject of “confused” desis the first person who mentioned a gori being a “better investment” was actually against his own brother marrying one.. That’s what I’d call “confused”..

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

And culture and religion are two different things anyway..

They don’t necessarily go hand in hand..

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

For me they’re confused and I don’t think confused desi neccesarily means confused muslims. However now that you’ve brought up religion, I think the “kinds” OP describe can easily be clueless about religion as well..

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

Don’t know why some people are getting so worked up at the term “confused” which was used to describe the kind OP mentioned but if the hat fits :hat: ..

Obviously not that comfortable in your skin if my post can get you so hyper.

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

no.
if this is the case go for real thing.
Go for real white. Rather then whitewashed.

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

Was that post aimed at me, Aaze?

“Not comfortable in your skin” - another sly dig at people who don’t prioritise culture? You’re the one with a problem making comments about “confused” and such..

Live and let live.. you’ll be much happier for it..

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

totally…

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

General question..

Why is being a “westernised” desi seen as such a negative by some but if a white woman marries a desi and chooses to immerse herself in our culture (for ex mostly wearing shalwar khameez or saree and bringing up her kids to speak Urdu or Hindi) that’s a positive? She wouldn’t be call a “confused” white woman, would she..

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

no!!
she is white.
You dont say thing to white ppl when you brown. Even more so when some one is whitewashed brown. eww

Re: completely westernised brown/asian people.

Practice what you preach… you will be much happier for it
