Comments on: RE: SO DO INDIAN MEN DESERVE NO LOVE ??? or DATES? http://sepiamutiny.com/blog/2005/01/31/_re_so_do_india/ All that flavorful brownness in one savory packet Sat, 30 Nov 2013 11:11:28 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: desi chick http://sepiamutiny.com/blog/2005/01/31/_re_so_do_india/comment-page-2/#comment-5353 desi chick Tue, 15 Mar 2005 03:01:22 +0000 http://sepiamutiny.com?p=1007#comment-5353 <p>I have to agree with what Anna said. If you state what you want in the relationship (hopefully not on the first few dates) and if he doesn't deliver move on. I learned this from a guy friend who once said that if a woman lets a man treat her bad then he will continue to do so. Besides every relationship is a give-take ordeal and when that becomes violated it leaves either party wanting. I have mostly dated Indian men and I did have a bad experience with one of them but the others were wonderful. My only complaint being it's hard finding one that isn't a mama's boy. But other than that I have seen some very sweeet ones.</p> I have to agree with what Anna said.

all of the sweeping (generalizing) is irritating my allergies.

i’m not going to divulge more private matters like anonymous did(though i will state that i had no complaints there), but MY bengali ex-bf, whom i dated for over 18 months:

-taught me how to drive a manual transmission via his 1956 porsche speedster convertible, a car that meant the world to him, a car that had been on the cover of excellence mag

-brought me breakfast (including homemade cinnamon rolls!) in bed, every weekend, along with a copy of the sunday nyt

-bought me flowers, for no reason whatsoever

-overheard me tell my best friend that i couldn’t find a nail polish to match a certain indian outfit that i was wearing for a wedding– so he had his friends at a certain shop (think similar to “west coast customs”) create the most glorious enamel to surprise me with, shot with three kinds of pearl

-knew that i’d be heartbroken that my beloved siamese fighting fish died, so he desperately ran all over town trying to find an identical twin before i got home from work (unsuccessful– i got home early and found my little “triumph trident” belly up)

-surprised homesick me with a visit during my first semester of grad school (over two years after we broke up!!!) and even brought my fave bare escentuals peppermint shower gel to cheer me, after i absent-mindedly mentioned that i couldn’t find it out here.

i ONLY date indian guys. have some of them been assholes? sure. my sister tends to date white and asian guys. have some of THEM been assholes? you bet your sweet ass…hole.

everyone has an asshole, everyone occasionally IS an asshole. i will not stand by and let bengali boys get denigrated needlessly. same goes for punjabi, kashmiri, rajasthani, tamil and malayalee boys.

i’ve dated all of the above (and they spanned the continuum from boys who were in india until college but came here for grad school —> boys who were born here, who were brown only genetically) and there were plenty of sweethearts in the lot. i’ll compile a damned list of rockstar-gestures like the ones i shamelessly flaunted above, to counteract the unnecessary negativity that is getting batted about here. there are PLENTY of indian guys who are amazing. from every possible background.

ANY guy will disrespect a girl if they let him– every girl learns this the hard way, me included.

if you don’t want to wake up with something unpleasant in your hand, make that abundantly clear as a non-negotiable point. if he doesn’t agree to it, he doesn’t deserve you, he’s not the one for you (even if you “love everything else about him”) and you should move on. period. you and your friend have had bad experiences, but questioning an entire group of people for it is ludicrous.

there are good and bad in every community, in both genders, in all sexual orientations. ’nuff said.

who wants to start a blog how good it is to be a brown guy right now. heavy shoulder movements and classic amitabh moves are in high demand at all the clubs. PLUS i’m seeing russell peters next monday.

stop all the hating, nobody wants to hear about how hard it is to find a “progressive guy who is South Asian” come on, just come out and say what you really want… a chiseled brown shtud who will kiss your feet, cook you subji, serve it to you in bed, and provide meaningful, windblown sharukh gazes on command. yuck
