fatandgeeky: thatsocialjusticebitch: violettay: prettyindian: Honestly, I don’t understand this at all and I will never understand this. The amount of hurt I feel just by looking at this photo just phantoms me, because what is this girl really thinking when she put on these shorts? That’s my deity, the One I take refugee when I’m experiencing sorrow in my life. He is my all, my everything and you have put him on your body? Not only that, you’re probably unclean, and very dirty and probably were even before you put the shorts onto your body. You do not wear Him, you do not eat meat when you’re wearing Him. You do not touch Him when you’re dirty. The person who’s even wearing the shorts is not Hindu, and I know this for a fact. No Hindu would ever wear this, ever. We don’t even wear Him when we worship at His alter. If Hindu’s, the followers, the believers of the faith, reject what you’re doing, why is an unbeliever doing this? Because it’s ‘trendy’? Because it’s ‘different’? That is my God. That is my religion. That is my faith. You’re not ‘cool’ or fucking ‘unique’ , you’re a fucking ignorant asshole.  ^^^ Not Hindu but I had to reblog for this. bolded mine. This is really helpful, because sometimes I see things I think are cultural appropriation and I’m not sure how to say “Hey that’s really fucked up” or I’m not sure it’s my place to speak about it because of ignorance about the culture and not being a part of it, Anyway I saw a post last night that I’m probably gonna reblog after this post because this post says what I can’t about how fucking wrong it is…. Reblogged for commentary. Food for thought regarding “cool east indian” designs you see everywhere.
