Why are these people stereotyping Indian women?
​
I have a cousin brother (not real cousin) who once posted a selfie with a foreign woman on his Instagram, and so many Indian men (his friends) were hyping it up in the comments like it was some huge achievement.
The reality is that a lot of Indian men openly fetishize white women too — constantly talking about “foreign girls, Russian” obsessing over white features, or treating dating a white woman like a status symbol. So it feels hypocritical when the same people complain only when Indian women are stereotyped.
At the end of the day, reducing any group of women to racial stereotypes is weird, whether it’s Indian women or white women.
