Re: Gori dey nakhrey, shaawa!
princess ur missing the point.
It's not about the west or east... at least i didnt think of it that way.
the conversatoin did go off on a tangent about how aunties go back tto pakistan to find a DIL and how some of these DILs dont know anything about normal housework. I did point out that there are numerous girls here in the west who are the same.. who havent done much before getting married.
But who is asking anyone to do anything before getting married? What we're saying (or at least I am) is that one should be aware of the changes that come with marriage. The responsibilities they need to take up... and be ABLE to actually do such things. It's not about doing these things prior to getting married... but benig accepting of them and not brushing it off as "oh i was rich and had maids all my life.. so its not my fault i dont know how to do it"
and hey, who knows how to fry samosa's before getting married? I never did... u learn. Learning is part of growing up.
There are many guys and girls back in pakistan from well off families who know how to do a lot of things. It's not an argument about back home and here.. who is better.
