[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m white and married to a south Asian man. I wear saris (gifted to me by in laws) to Indian weddings and family events of course. But neither of us would wear those clothes to a western wedding or event. That would be weird, and in poor taste for me especially. [/quote] Super weird you say western wedding[/quote] Why? What else would they say? I have heard many friends of South Asian, East Asian and African descent refer to parts of their own wedding festivities using that term. Many have married partners that were European or American, and thus not from their cultural or ethnic background, so they had many wedding events because they wanted to celebrate their specific wedding traditions and rituals, and also have a traditional western style wedding with a white dress, bridesmaids, in addition to a traditional Ghanian or Bengali or Korean etc wedding ceremony and celebration. This is a pretty common phase to use....[/quote]
