So you think...

Re: So you think…

@pak-one

you’re American/Canadian/British/European? Maybe on piece of paper you might be, but you really aren’t. So stop kidding yourself, stop looking down on Pakistan and Pakistani people. You never bothered to learn Urdu, you proudly proclaim your Muslim-ness yet downplay your Pakistaniyat, maybe you got a gora crew or you roll with the kalas looking down on the FOBs/Freshers…well guess what? Every one sees you South Asian or perhaps Middle Eastern/Central Asian…you fool no one.

This is not a rant. This is reality. No doubt being born in Europe has given me privileges, but I am not about to throw away thousands of years of my history to pretend to be something I am not. So I’ll marry a Pakistani, teach my kids Urdu/Pakhto, spend as much time in Pakistan as possible.

Keep the identity alive.

Haha! It is a well sensitive issue isn’t it. But yeah, you nailed it on the head. :k:
