I’m sure some are already aware of this, but please do not assume that all Indian families are like TJ’s. Wiping a pan with a cloth that was previously used for wiping cow dung is considered filthy, disgusting, and unhygienic by all Hindus I know including my own family. Don’t get me wrong, there are some families in specific castes who may do this because they’re still living in the fourth century, but the majority definitely, definitely don’t. One of my old coworkers would always make fun of India and asked me if I drink cow urine. I was so offended by this and furious with him for asking me such a disrespectful question, but after watching this episode and the awful way they represent India, I realized he asked because he must’ve been watching something similar. Seriously, please don’t assume that all or even any Indians commit practices like this 🤦♀️
I’ve said so many times that it shouldn’t have been all on Kimberly to research. India is a large country with a massive population, and there’s no way she could have figured out all of TJ’s specific family customs by Googling. TJ should have prepared Kimberly on what to expect.
I wouldn’t expect someone to know what we do in my American household by Googling.
It’s also possible she trusted her fiancé and was not aware that he is very glib and full of shit and a liar
