[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is Nadia actually 100% Indian?

I have a close friend who is Guyanese-American but identifies as black who has very Indian features. There’s no intermarriage? Is that why a lot of the Indian men aren’t interested in her?  She’s very pretty and tall (which apparently is a very desirable quality) [/quote]

I cringed when she said I'm not actually Indian, I'm actually from Guyana, but my ancestors are Indian. I have family like this, even though there is no intermarriage, 
amd they're 100%. It's incredibly odd. Other than that, I like Nadia. I think she's pretty, caring, and fun. I read an article earlier where she was saying that it did not work out between her and Shekar after the show. Too bad the dynamic changed once the cameras were off, they seemed to hit it off.

What is wrong with saying this? I am Indian American. My kids are third generation but ethnically fully Indian. I imagine they would say something similar. It would be weird if them to leave the impression that they were more familiar with India than they are.

I thought it was odd that Nadia uses the Indian matchmaker. Most people who do old school arranged marriages are looking for someone who speaks the same language, is the same caste etc. So those people would be biased against someone like Nadia. [/quote]
