A lot of generalizations there. You are welcome to your perspective but in my opinion it is pretty ignorant. I assume that you belong to a racial or ethnic group in which every single member is exactly the same and therefore are not familiar with the concept of heterogeneity. But, there is a whole lot of variety within the "white" community. You might want to look into that. |
LOL. Jeff, actually this is not my perspective at all. But since the DCUM threads always degenerates into generalizations about Indians, I am presenting some generalizations about White people as well. Just food for thought, you know! All in good cause and to educate people. |
Yes , very much. His father passed away when he was young and his mom now lives with us. He came to the US for grad school on a scholarship. We married young (me 22) and him (27). |
+1 Racist people generally do not want perspectives outside their own and paint groups with a huge brush. They certainly won't let facts get in their way but they will grab onto an incident/s that fit their view without taking into account the whole picture. |
So, he is a product of his own culture and familial upbringing. How is he the rare one? |

It hasn't become as vile as the last one yet. |
Seriously. I am South Asian--at least 20% of my family and 80% of my US born South Asian friends are in interracial marriages--the first one was in 1960. It's not rare at all from what I see. |
Apart from the psychopath who probably got rejected by an Indian chick and now keeps posting about "hook noses", that is. |
| This thread is as vile as the last. Horrible. |
Aren't you the OP of this thread? Maybe next time a thread that you consider "vile" disappears, you should leave well enough alone. Or, use the Website Feedback forum which would have been more appropriate. There is nothing like throwing a match into a puddle of gasoline and then complaining that there is a fire. |
It's definitely less common in Bangladesh. |
because the previous thread was about white men and south asian women. If it's a woman making the comment then obviously a hater since men of most races are hairy, bigger everything, and have 'skinny fat'. |
| I'm a white woman married to an South Asian man. He was born here but his parents are from India. I've always felt very comfortable and welcomed by his entire family - much more so than the snobby southern rich family of my ex boyfriend! |
The point was his thinking is different from the typical South Asian. South Asian people tend to be judgmental about anything. What you wear; What you say; What you drive etc . I have met other interracial couples like us and the sa guys were awful. One sa doctor actually said something like, "do you think I went to medical school for nothing?" to his wife while they were arguing about something completely irrelevant to medicine. It was bizarre. They definitely show off more in my experience interacting with them. My husband is on the extreme other side though. He wants to help end poverty in his home country, gives money to homeless people, tutors math/ statistics free to poor students. |
