Re: Stereotypes that are true

one stereotype that I think I mentioned and some may believe is that Pakistanis in general are better looking than other desis according to the subcontinental definition of beauty. They are also more likely to be mistaken for a variety of ethnicities from middle eastern, European to Mediterranean.

Also one shouldn't get Pakistanis and Indians mixed up because it can be touchy topic.

^stop kissing @$$, seriously. I feel embarrassed for you. Those who already don't like Indians are not going to get impressed.

Well for me a friend of mine was surprised on a recent trip to spain how loud the people were and how often they used hand gestures. ***I DON'T want to be dragging any INDIAN HATE/ ANY RACIAL HATE into this thread please.

ouch.. I didn't really think there was really a way to differentiate between an Indian and Pakistani.

I'm Indian btw.

I don't believe in stereotyping people, it's stupid because there's always exceptions.

The Spanish people or the indian people? There’s that stereotype about Indians moving head when talking.

I had some positive stereotypes of Pakistanis on my thread. I think Pakistanis are stereotyped to be good singers. Pakistani friends I know sing better than me. http://www.paklinks.com/gs/relationships/641868-how-do-you-deal-with-stereotypes-from-foreigners-can-positive-stereotypes-offend.html

Don’t go on the would you be offended thread :stuck_out_tongue: but seriously there re slight differences depending on location in Pakistan.
Where in India are you from ? Do you live there now?
I personally like to see Pakistanis like family but I understand that everyone has unique identity. You’re right stereotypes don’t fit. It’s just a shortcut but still sometimes you can have positive impressions which can be like stereotypes http://www.paklinks.com/gs/relationships/641868-how-do-you-deal-with-stereotypes-from-foreigners-can-positive-stereotypes-offend.html
