Was anyone else kind of skeeved out by Iyana's "parents?"

I can't remember the specifics but didn't she say that they adopted her pretty recently, like around age 22? I find it weird that they focus so much on using the term parents. And her dad was talking about children growing up. I mean I know they were her godparents but it all seemed just really a bit much. Like their need to constantly use language about being her parents.

I saw nothing "skeevy" about them, or their relationship as her parents. After all, they were her Godparents before they were her parents. That is the literal definition of a Godparent. The fact that they stepped in and took on that responsibility even later in her life is commendable and selfless of them. I find it interesting that you took a beautiful relationship and twisted it into something suspect, and gross.

I'm a NP. Just binged the season. Her adoptive father was 100% on the down low. Omg, when he hugged Iyanna in her wedding dress? That crouch! So awkward! Definitely skeevy. And honestly I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt when I say closeted, because my second hunch is molester.

I'm desi, in my early 40s, and I (sadly) had a lot of cousins/family friends in my early adulthood who would never date a person from our race. But it seemed like it had been changing at least here in the US, and it's so sad to me that this type of self-hatred is still so common. In my 20s, I met guys like Shake (Indian guys who'd never dated Indian girls) and I always ran far, far away. WHY would you date someone who doesn't like the way your people look and is only attracted to the race that subjugated your people for 300 years ? It's such a recipe for heartbreak.

Lol. What is this nonsense?

I just watched the reunion. Holy moly I think that was the most uncomfortable, depressing hour of TV I've ever watched.

What does down low mean? Gay? I didn’t get that vibe, or molester vibe! He just seemed deeply conservative, traditional and formal. I liked them, and really felt they had her best interests at heart.

Shake is a headcase, for sure. Major identity issues. I didn’t feel that way at all about Deepti! She was very proud to be Indian. I think she made that quite clear.

Specifically closeted, and most often used to describe closeted Christian black men.

I now follow Deepti on Instagram (and Natalie) and she is really living her best life. I love how she has so much support by basically everyone.

Shake giving up being a vet and moving to Miami, of course. How long before the new gf dumps him, do we think? I give them six months.

Imagine being so insecure you are desperate for Shake's approval. LOL

Weird, wasn’t he talking about opening a new practice in Chicago or was that all talk?

I just binged this.

Many thoughts, but mostly I appreciate that Vanessa Lachey seems to be aging naturally and gracefully - I don't think she's even had botox, which is unusual for celebrities. You could see all her expressions, and they were all delightful. I just adore her and her commentary - especially at the 'reunion.'
