Re: personal hygiene among desis
I think lack of awareness has to do with it and mostly this is the problem with Desis, Chineese or other immigrants who get job and socialize in the community.
I mean if a desi Guy with BO or desi girl with smell of ginger is working at desi place with other 10 desis smelling the same (ok some being garlic, onion etc), no one notices. I have seen people who work in environment not dominated by their ethnicity being more careful about it coz normally they figure out that other people are noticing it.
