It seems that an article was written to a well-founded magazine, by an English woman who requested a response from Indian men. I'm so glad she got what she asked for (and more)!!! This letter was written in response to the following article: Dear Editor: I'm sorry but I would like to challenge some of your Indian male readers. I am a White female who is engaged to an Indian male, good-looking, educated and loving. I just don't understand a lot of Indian female's attitudes about our relationship. My man decided he wanted me because the pickings amongst Indian women were slim to none. As he said they were either too fat, too loud, too mean, too argumentative, too needy, too materialistic or carrying too much excess baggage. Before I became engaged, whenever I went out I was constantly approached by Indian men, willing to wine and dine me and give me the world If Indian women are so up in arms about us being with their men, why don't they look at themselves and make some changes. I am tired of the dirty looks I get and snide remarks when we're out in public. I would like to hear from some Indian men about why we white women are so appealing and coveted by them. Bryant Gumbel just left his wife of 26 years for one of us. Charles Barkley, Scottie Pippen, the model Tyson Beckford, Montell Williams, Quincy Jones, James Earl Jones, Harry Belafonte, Sydney Poitier, Kofi Anan, Cuba Gooding Jr., Don Cornelius,Berry Gordy, BillyBlanks, Larry Fishburne, Jesley Snipes...I could go on and on. But,right now, I'm a little angry and that is why I wrote this so hurriedly. Don't be mad with us White women because so many of your men want us. Get your acts together and learn from us and we may lead you to treat your men better. If I'm wrong, Indian men, let me know. Disgusted White Girl, Somewhere in VA. ----------------------------------------------------------------- The Response: Dear Editor: I would like to respond to the letter written by A Disgusted White Girl. Let me start by saying that I am a 28-year old Indian man. I studied from one of the most prestigious universities in Atlanta, Georgia with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Management. I have a good job at a major corporation and have recently purchased a house. So, I consider myself to be among the ranks of successful Non-White men. I will not use my precious time to slander white people. I just want to set the record straight of why Indian men date white women. Back in the day, one of the biggest reasons why Indian men dated white women was because they were considered easy. The Indian girls in my neighborhood were raised traditionally. They were very strict about when they lost their virginity and who they lost it to. Because of our impatience to wait, brothers would look for someone who would give it up easy without too much hassle. So, they turned to the white girls. Nowadays, in my opinion, a lot of Indian males date white women because they are docile and easy to control. A lot of Indian men, because of insecurities, fears, and overall weaknesses, have become intimidated by the strength of our Indian women. We are afraid that our woman will be more successful than us, make more money than us, drive nicer cars and own bigger houses. Because of this fear, many Indian men look for a more docile woman. Someone we can control. I have talked to numerous Indian men and they continuously comment on how easy it is to control and walk over their white women. I just want to set the record straight. I want A Disgusted White Girl to know that not all successful Indian men date white women. Non-Whites like Ahmad Rashad, Denzel Washington, Michael Jordan, Morris Chestn! ut,Will Smith, Blair Underwood, Kenneth 'Babyface' Edmonds, Samuel L. Jackson, and Chris Rock all married strong Non-White women. And, to flip the script, there are numerous white men, in and out of the spot light, who openly or secretly desire Non-White women over white women. Ted Danson, Robert DeNiro, and David Bowie to name a few. I just don't want the 'Disgusted White Girl' to be misinformed. Stop thinking that because you are white that you are some type of goddess. Remember, when Non-White Egyptian Queens like Hatsepshut and Nitorcris were ruling Dynasties and armies of men in Egypt, you were over in the caves of Europe eating raw meat and beating each other over the head with clubs. Read your history! It was the Non-White woman that taught you how to cook and season your food. It was the Non-White woman that taught you how to raise your children. It was Non-White women who were breastfeeding and raising your babies during slavery. It is the Non-White woman that had to endure watching their fathers, husbands, and children beaten, killed, and thrown in jail. Indian women were born with two strikes against them: being Non-White and being a woman. And, through all this, Still They Rise! It is because of the Indian women's strength, elegance, power, love and beauty that I could never date anyone except my Indian Queen. It is not just the outer beauty that captivates and draws me to them. It is not the fact that they come in all shapes, sizes, colours and shades that I love them. Their inner beauty is what I find most appealing about Indian women. Their strong spirit, loving and nurturing souls, their integrity, their ability to overcome great obstacles, their willingness to stand for what they believe in, and their determination to succeed and reach their highest potential while enduring great pain and suffering is why I have fallen in love with Indian women. I honestly believe that your anger is geared more toward jealousy and envy than snotty looks. If this were not so, then why do you continuously go to tanning salons to darken your skin. If you are so proud to be white, then why don't you just be happy with your pale skin? Why do you continue to inject your lips, hips, and breasts with unnatural and dangerous substances so you can look fuller and more voluptuous? I think that your anger is really a result of you wanting to have what the Non-White woman has. BOTTOM LINE: If I were looking for a docile woman, someone I can walk over and control, I would give you a call. But, unfortunately, I am looking for a Virtuous Woman. Someone that can be a good wife and mother to my children. Someone who can be my best friend and understand my struggles. I am looking for a soul mate and; unfortunately, you do not and CANNOT fit the bill. No offense taken, none given. Signed, Indian Royalty. -- Roopesh Kumar Jain
Hi Purnima, Hope u are settled down....looks likeyou have....you have come up with such a strong supporting snippet of Indian woman that too written by an Indian Man! Where did u find this ......i enjoyed all he positive points on Indian women ....this Man seems to be a Women non-hater!...ha ha!:-D Thanks for the posting, and welcome back from US!
A Very Mild Praise, Sudha! Dear Sudha, You have just said that the man is a woman non-hater. A very mild, doubtful praise to be given to a man who is brilliant and much more important than that, has strong values and true to our Indian tradition, respects our women. You should have used some strong words of praise. If you can't find one here's help. 'Seeing his attitude towards Indian women I think he should be Varalotti's cousin." Ha ha ha sridhar
cousin??? my eyes are deceiving me Varalotti! Did u say cousin? i thought it was YOU! Being a pampered Induslad you better be a woman non hater, and remember i know your wife's email id too! ha ha ha! btw "A very mild, doubtful praise to be given to a man who is brilliant and much more important than that, has strong values and true to our Indian tradition, respects our women." is an awesome description, we, certainly get goose pimples on reading this! Sudha, i came to US around 10 days back. I got this foward from one of my ex-collegues all her forwards are nice, and some are "ILitsh"!!! This is one of them! Glad you liked it! Purnima
Three chreers To that Indian male and to Purnima who has posted this (though this has been posted already, I think that never does matter as this could be posted again and again to give all of us who read a great sense of pride).
Namaste Purnimaji This post is awesome. It not only tells about the greatness of Indian women but also shows why Indian men should be preferred as soul mates, because they know how to respect womanhood. Regards Tanu
Sorry to dispel everyone's euphoria, this mail is a hoax.:wave The original mail was (purportedly) written by a black man in response to the (purported) letter of a white woman. You can confirm this by doing a Google search. Some enterprising Indian ( Roopesh Kumar Jain ?) has done a cut-and-paste job and then edited the word "Black" with the words either Indian or "non-white". Yes, Indian women are the epitome of feminine grace and wisdom, but we don't need this kind of hoax mails to prove that. Every day and in every way, each of us is an ambassador for what we want others to think about India and her women.
Hai purnima It is really wonderful.There is no culture which can match our culture.SIMPLY GREAT WITH RE SUBBI :2thumbsup:
