Re: Gori finally meeting the new Pakistani inlaws to be… gift?
How is it racist? Doesn’t it just mean fair skinned person- and thus means white person? Would it be any different than me referring to someone by their skin color (ie, I tell people my fiance is brown, if they ask). I think that skin color is a neutral thing (ie not positive or negative) so saying the color is no different than saying he is tall for instance.
Back to the gift, are you guys saying that I should give a large gift such as something crystal etc, to his mother at this first meeting? Remember, they haven’t accepted me yet and Allah only knows if they ever will. Last time I saw her (a couple weeks ago), she went to shake my hand but I forced a hug on her instead… haha. She had told my fiance that she was worried that I wasn’t going to be loving. Since I knew I could show zero PDAs to her that would indicate I was loving to him, I had to go all loving on her… lol.
I haven’t converted yet, though I’m working on it. If I bring an Islamic gift, would tha be weird to them?
