Re: How a desi views goras.
Its very common to bring past history into this type of argument but heck, if we look at the violent history of Pakistan and Muslim-killing-Muslim, we can see the same things....on a smaller scale perhaps but thats really beside the point yeah? People are violent creatures who are bent on destroying others who are different from themselves and THATS history. And not relevant here so start a different thread!
From personal experience, I've seen that desis are indeed more hospitable. Do they LIKE it? For the most part - no. But it earns them rights to future favors/hospitality of others yeah? Also, the cultural aspects have to be considered here. In Pak, life is slow and easy. Lots of servants, lots of extended family around, lots less working hours for those who work, there are private bathrooms in guest rooms. As opposed to life in USA where 24 hours in a day is never enough, there is usually just wife to take care of house and home and guests, she may have to work too because cost of living is very high, houses are tiny and bathroom is shared by all. In THAT case, would you want a houseful of guests for weeks (which you can barely afford)?
Before you pass judgement, you should live both sides of the coin for a while.
