People who think desis,paindoos and fobs are bad people and talk hatred about them , do they ever think that its their roots they cannot cut them off.

How can you cut your roots so you will never be called son or daughter of desi,fob or paindoo? There must be some way :hmmm:

O ho .. when people mock a group, its always an understanding that they are not including their family in it .. though certain family members are part of that group ..

what do you think is going through the minds of girls when they claim that all men are pigs .. you think ‘all men’ include their father and brothers also .. they do .. but then they dont .. :wink:

Re: Desis,fobs etc.

UZ, it is a representation of our own insecurities that we go around mocking others. And like TLK said, somehow we tend to exclude ourselves or our close family members when stereotyping :D

Desi , paindo and fob aik kafiat ka naam hay jo kisee per bhe kisee bhee waqat taree ho sakti hay. Iss ka kisi jughrafiai ilaqay say koi taaluq nahi hay. Aik gora , ABCD, CBCD , EBCD bhee desi , paindo ya fob pun ka muzahara kar sakta hay. :D

I am a fob , desi and now a paindo and I am proud of it. :)

Re: Desis,fobs etc.

As ex-pat Desis we get so much horrible abuse/assumptions. It just seems to hurt more when its directed back. Innit.

Re: Desis,fobs etc.

there shouldn’t be a need to cut it, your roots are what make you you. i think most people in america atleast were paindus once :hula:

although i find the German language to be annoying to listen to for some reason :P
