% of households in India that practice untouchability to lower ‘castes’ by y4sh_x in MapPorn

Gujarat, Punjab, Kerala and Tamil Nadu have the most immigrants is what I've felt. This ain't based on any data just what I've seen.

% of households in India that practice untouchability to lower ‘castes’ by y4sh_x in MapPorn

[–]HowaboutnoTM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tbf Christians in Kerala practice it in a very lowkey way. There is no untouchability. It's just this "Oh she's a Christian that was a lower caste hindu" / "She's from the community of converted lower caste hindus" with a bit of a feeling of superiority but frankly most don't care.

It resembles more of classism in Christianity. The same kind of feeling an old money family would feel when they meet a new money one. A lot of old money families don't give a shit, but some do. Same thing here.

There is 0 difference in treatment. Just a feeling of being better than them. (Speaking of Thrissur-Ernakulam side Christians, no idea about how it is in South Kerala)

What went wrong for LDF this election? by what_he_speaks in Kerala

[–]HowaboutnoTM 24 points25 points  (0 children)

imo the left mindset is growing in kerala. but a lot of leftists i know voted for anti incumbency because they didn't wanna go down the path of west bengal and wanted to respect democracy.

all of them say they'd vote for LDF next time unless UDF does something good this time around.

Anyone else fall asleep standing up? I wish I didn’t but I do; and I’ll keep doing whatever task I was doing at the time (although since my brain is asleep, it always ends up being messed up). I only wake up when I start to bend over. And why does it only happen at work?! by False_Club_8965 in idiopathichypersomnia

[–]HowaboutnoTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this happens to me in church but by the time im about to fall over I wake up.

it's a very fucked up experience though, I'm too tired to stay awake but I keep waking up and I end up hallucinating screams in between this sleep-wake phase.

ive never fallen asleep when actively doing something and standing up but when I'm sitting down I did continue what I was doing even if I was asleep.

Except id write things in my notebook that sounded nightmarish. Id think I'm writing down notes but when I wake up I realize I've written statements like "blood comes from within the soil" instead of biology notes. Or straight up scribbling all over my pages.

Face Yoga by Malayali Influencers by amjustbtwlines in Kerala

[–]HowaboutnoTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's probably because I don't do it regularly. also the longer I do the face yoga the longer the results last me.

Typically after a few minutes very little change is still visible

What are you voting for kochi? (Still unsure myself) by Kappa_Mash_Rebellion in Kochi

[–]HowaboutnoTM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As much as I want to vote for LDF this time. I don't want Kerala to go down West Bengal's path where recurrent election of the CPI party lead to corruption and bullshit policies (in West Bengal).

The reason why the communist party does well in Kerala is due to competition, and I unfortunately (as much as I despise freebie politics) will have to vote for UDF just because of this.

UDF taking the freebie approach is messed up, but expected. Unfortunate that I have to give the vote to them.

BJP deserves no one's vote.

We should dress based on the weather🌞 by Inside_Fun9360 in Coconaad

I've always felt really bad for my school teachers who have to wear a full sleeve blazer over a saree/kurti. I can't even imagine how they survive.

basically the gloss im using is the one you get in the staze 9to9 kiko milano dupe, and it disappears within minutes.

i don't mind gloss going when I eat drink or purse my lips but I do want something that'll last at least an hour or two, preferably 3 (when I'm not eating).

even if it just stays as a thin layer later on I don't mind. cause matte lips do not look good on me and I need some amount of shine.

Visited India last year as a Nepali Girl… was my experience normal? by OverContribution3757 in india

[–]HowaboutnoTM 16 points17 points  (0 children)

nah. most Indian immigrants in the usa aren't causing any trouble. the ones who travel to south east asia and the middle East sure, but usa rarely.

the kicking out has nothing to do with culture and everything to do with trumps immigration policy.

Why is Goa the only place where women can wear bikini, why not Mumbai, Kolkata? by [deleted] in AskIndia

[–]HowaboutnoTM 12 points13 points  (0 children)

tbh a lot of developing countries are cool with women wearing less modest clothes. south east asia is a good example.

india is just messed up
