[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't ask white people this question, they're always going to say yes it's OK go ahead! In reality, it's not. Marrying someone doesn't give you a free pass to play dress up. It's not your culture, it never will be. You already know not to do it. [/quote]

+100000.

Please don't play dress up. Just wear your regular clothes. Appropriating someone else's dress is almost always SUPER OFFENSIVE and patronizing. Also, what's next? By that twisted logic, are you also going to give yourself permission to wear non-white hairstyles just because you married a non-white person?[/quote]

And herein lies the problem with "cultural appropriation" -- it's really just white people policing other white people. I am South Asian and I love when white people wear South Asian clothing to cultural and family events. Please, celebrate our culture, no offense taken!! Just don't put a god on your f_cking flip flops and tote bags, please.  Do you see the difference?[/quote]
