North american men are pretty nice for the most part, but there is something to be said about silky black hair (Ramon Tikaram) and mocha chocolate pudding skin tones. check out justmango.com and find the cosmopolitan uk picture. I will never turn back. I am even planning a trip to India in the future. Oh yes, do see Naveen Andrews hair washing scene in the English Patient. He is just dripping with charisma there. And no, I have not a drop of Indian blood in me...all Canadian

The place within me (Atman) that is divine (Brahman) honors the place within you that is divine. And when I am in the place inside of me and you are in that place in side of you, we are one. -Namaste

First of all i can type however i please, as long as i can get my messege across! that means if i use exclamation points, maybe i AM truly pissed off about something! Besides who wants to read your post if all your gonna use is words like "nor" and "spewing" And again, if this website were STRICTLY for "oriental" people, than why is "INDIAN" a choice for the best asian nationality, under the poll "Comparing Asian Nationalities?" Exactly, if all you do is visit this poll, then you really don't know what goes on in others. So don't challenge my intelligence, unless you want keep getting told!...and if you are so smart, then why did you use the words "asian" and "indian" as two seperate words? Now thats stupid! And you can't argue that indian websites don't include those of "oriental lineage" when those websites truly are strictly for those of Indian heritage, because this website is for every asian nationality, where did you come up with your stupid notion that this website was only for those of "oriental lineage"?
NdN GUrL....yea thats rite, even tho i'm just a gurl i can show up your ass anyday! Sunday, February 24, 2002 at 13:28:25 (PST)

Ndn GUrL
When I visit INDIAN websites theres not one iota about people who are Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Japanese, etc...It seems to be kept an exclusively Indian website and forum. Seems to me the distinction is encouraged by those of Indian heritage. So why can I not feel that this website is to be for Asians of an " oriental" , as Jay the Hapa says, lineage. The distinction I see, though not supported my a map, is commmonly supported among those who are " Oriental" and those who are " Indian". I happen to perceive why there is a distinction. Evidently so do those who have created websites for strictly Indians, excluding their " Oriental" breathern.

Do you even know the meaning of Namaste, for all your sputtering and spewing?
Well " GUrl" sums you up I gather.
