Re: Pakistani-American or Pakistani Girl
I have a few things to say...even though I should probablly just keep my mouth (or keyboard...haha) quiet on this issue! I think you will think me biased, but I assure you I am very capable of having an open mind!
I will tell you a little story,,,,
I am from the US, born and raised in a Christian home, but never felt like I really fit in with anything or anyone around me. I was always finding that my religion was not devoted enough or spiritual enough, or ...hmmmm let's just say I thought there should be much more respect and devotion given to God instead of other people....not that other people weren't important, but I think you get my drift here. I also put God first in every single issue in my life, an most people of the US just can not understand that type of mentality. Also, I never got along well with women from the US because they were all "loose" and wanting to drink, go clubbing, find guys, and whatever else they could think of with no morals to lead them. Also, I was more of a serious person when it came to thinking about marriage, family and children. I always believed that a man was the head of the home and the woman should respect and listen to her husband. Of course most US girls are too busy trying to prove their own worth to even consider respecting the man more. So, I was always looked at as old fashioned. I had a problem with men thinking they could touch my body, or even kiss me when they had no right to ....in my opinion my body is sacred to be shared with my husband ONLY! So, with all this said, I have not had much success in finding a man here in the US. I also, btw....have a great sense of humor, love playing practical jokes, and have a degree in Criminal Justice as well as Psychology. So you see I am well rounded, but not the typical US woman.
**I met a man from Pak, (A Pathan by the way), from a small village, who I knew nothing about his culture or his country. All I can tell you is that between converting to Islam, meeting his family, and finding out about their beliefs....I FEEL LIKE I HAVE FINALLY FOUND HOME!!! It has all come so naturally, with little having to be explaned because I already felt this way naturally in my soul. **
So, my moral of this story is that, you can not say that people from a different country will not appreciate nor respect a different culture...In some cases, maybe they have always held the same beliefs but never knew there were others in the world who felt the same!
Where we are from is not what matters....what we HAVE BECOME DOES!
Some serious laws of physics are being violated there openly.
