Since you are a Pakistani too, may be you should ask these questions from your self first.

1- Why do you tend to treat other pretty bad?

2- Why do you look away when you see a desi in street?

3- Why are you super nice to goray laug?

4- Why are you such a turd ball?

Start it from yourself and answer them one by one with whole sincerity. If you get satisfactory answers, well n good, your prob solved. Tell MODs to close the thread in that case.

But If you could not answer them then know it that you are so not capable of understanding your probs. If you cannot understand your own problems, how would u manage to do that for the WHOLE Pakistani nation??? :hmmm: Pakistan is the 6th most populous country of the world… in case you didnt know that.

oh and if my first assumpition is wrong, i.e. You are a Pakistani too, then plz dont worry about Pakistan and Pakistanis. Mind your own business just like we dont like prying into ur affairs.

Re: Jerks

I don't think its fair to call Pakistani people as jerks. There might be things that annoy us to end, but that is true of any group of people. Pakistani people tend to be family oriented, quite supportive, and pretty easy to get along with.

Culturally I may not totally identify with some Pakistanis due to regional variations but based on religion we are brothers and sisters. I feel bad for those who have had bad experiences with Pakistani people. Then again, my European friends say similar things about Americans, so there is plenty of hate going around.

Re: Jerks

I do find this to be a trend in Pakistanis though generally speaking. Pakistanis are not nice to each other unless they already know each other.

If they dont know you, they either look away when they see you OR bore a hole in you staring because you seem to be a phenomenon to them. "Wow, look another desi...oooooh".

As for the goray laug...its also true. I know people who call call goray laug "sir" and "madam" like they are waiting on them instead of it being the other way around.

Its not to say all Pakistanis are bad...we just have a hard time connecting well with each other.

Re: Jerks

I've noticed people just behave very differently if they're in a relationship with a gori/gora vs. if they are in a relationship with a fellow Pakistani. I don't know if its because they get too comfortable with the Pakistani partner that they allow the negativities to show. But I know people who tread so carefully around their gora life partners.

Or, I see it also manifested as people just treating their gora friends better than their Pakistani friends.

I've definitely noticed the phenomenon.

Fairytale, you pose good questions. I just know that I don't treat a desi like crap just because they're Pakistani and I think I have some right to misbehave with them. If anything, I try to advocate for the desis around here quite a bit. I think 99% of my efforts go unappreciated.

For example, there is a scholarship fund I recently heard about, started by a muslim, for muslim kids (I guess college scholarships). I don't know anyone wanting to donate to it.

Or it can be manifested as Pakistanis not wanting to pay any attention to their Paki celebrities until someone hits it big in India - like how many people became Atif Aslam fans after he made some racy Indian video for a movie?

These kinds of patterns are pretty pervasive in the community, and you're right, it starts with us - what can we do to stop this trend?

Re: Jerks

Its a gross generalization at best and reflective of the people you hang out with. Its by no means a standard situation that all Pakistanis or let alone most Pakistanis are like that.

27

Re: Jerks

Other folks here recognize the trend.

Re: Jerks

^ or jumping on the bandwagon.

Re: Jerks

Then I guess I am one of the more exceptional exceptions :D And Jaanwar is right as well.

What do Ahmedi's call mainstream muslims?

Re: Jerks

when a desi works for another desi that is generally never a good idea, the "master" usually makes life difficult for the employee and can/does use him in various ways (such as ripping him off, or using him for non work related purposes).

I think we do a better job of being manipulative.

Re: Jerks

Again that comment blackforest applies to any third world country. That is just not unique to Pakistanis. Hell here in Sudan I see a much worse situation.

Re: Jerks

There is an ugly side to the human nature in general, and that applies to whites, blacks, browns and whatever other colours, shapes and forms humans come in. Not fair to pick the negatives and apply them to the entire Pakistani population, or any group of people for that matter.

Re: Jerks

u could say that pakistanis feel threatend by other pakistanis...and they feel the need to 'compete' in some weird way

Re: Jerks

Re: Jerks

I would blank all the maulvi looking people out :hmmm: When I was going to Pak in the Summers this maulvi on the plane was staring at me as if i’ve stolen something from him. When we got off the plane I kept on hiding from him coz he was really weird. I think he wasmad coz I wasn’t wearing shalwar kameez n a burqa? Whereas, he had a topi on his head, white shalwar kameez, kharian and a tasbee. He also had a 6 ft long beard :hmmm:

Re: Jerks

was he a dwarf? cause he was prob jealous that u have more leg

Array tum samjhi nahin... its a clever strategy......... woh gora/gori will run away na, thats why..... waisay hee future mein tau unn ko bhaag hi jaana hai, tau temporarily they are on their best behavior.... phir bhagaana ho then they show their true colors... easy peasy

P.S. That applies to the general before marriage-after marriage situation also by the way.
