Must be what they see on TV that does it.
Beg to differ. I work with lots of Indian women (software firm). They are wonderful people.
“they are beautiful people. Except when they become “westernized.”

I’ve read historical books on India before their “westernization.”
Not pretty. You got your thugs, doing random murders to please Kali. You have your useless girls being thrown into the Ganges at birth. You have your suttee. You have that stealing caste, I have forgotten their names, to please their particular god they have to steal daily. Temple prostitution of children. Deliberate maiming of children for begging purposes. Not to mention the caste system that consigned millions to slavery while elevating some to useless soft indolence. Rampant graft and corruption.
Westernization was the best thing that ever happened to that “culture,” and inasmuch as it took hold they are a lot better off.
The Noble Savage, polluted only by our Western ways?
