Your appearance and desi culture

I’ve dealt with such crap more from my relos. But among non-relatives/ajmabis…again, I’ve seen more of this behavior with desis. A non-related aunti who feels the need to point out some flaw in your hair/weight/skin and then proceed to advise you openly in front of other aunties…putting you on the spot…while you stand there feeling awkward. And it can sometimes for the stupidest stuff…if you failed to smile at a particular moment…they can’t let that go either…you’re now henceforth going to be labeled moody. God forbid you try to defend yourself…and you’ll be called taiz. I’ve met some toxic goray laug as well…but again I’ve seen more of this habit among desis.

I’ve now decided that I’ve stayed patient for way too long…for years even. So I’m just going to put them in their place with nicely worded comments of my own, from time to time.

I actually meant a total stranger. Who you have never met before.

But I agree with you that some people need to have their tongues cut off.
