Okay, as a brown person, I understand that Hindu culture is very different from American culture and I’m usually pretty chill about people not understanding it. Basically l feel I am not one to take unwarranted offense (Apu on the Simpsons is considered representation to me, not racism; it’s true, we own a lot of 7-11’s 🤣).
BUT during the whole cow manure situation, for Kim to make those faces and call their rituals “DISGUSTING”. It’s one thing to not be comfortable with others traditions - but the blatant disrespect!!! SHE chose to live in India. Traditions are so sacred and close to our hearts in Indian culture. I just found her behavior incredibly distasteful.
AND SHES MAD SHE NEVER KNOWS WHATS GOING ON?? Ask!!! Educate yourself!!! She’s trying to fucking colonize these people.
I agree and as a white person married to a desi person and I’m surprised TJ doesn’t get offended on how she always complains about his culture. If I had the same attitude with my husbands traditions he would be deeply offended. She definitely doesn’t love his culture as much as states she does because she would be wanting to adopt his culture more. TJ sucks though too, especially in preparing her for this transition. He knew what the wife’s duties of the house were. He just wanted his mom to be the bad guy and made it seem that she was the only one implementing those rules and he’s just as clueless as Kim.
