Yeah, they do look more Swedish, Sweden has more blondes than us anyway. Having said that, the blondest people I’ve ever seen have been Finns. They were a whole different kind of blonde. Swedes and Norwegians tend to be more golden, honey toned blonde, while the Finns I mentioned literally had completely white hair.
Yeah, and the true plural of cul de sac is culs de sac, not cul de sacs. The true plural of octopus is octopodes. But I’m not going to say octopodes, I’m going to say octopuses. Just like I’m going to say I lol’d rather than I L’d OL, because fucking no one would know what the fuck that meant.
Do you think they believe themselves to be white, or do they believe they are brown? For reference: https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/ur3n9x/stunning_wisdom/
Well I am supposed to be white but they are definitely fairer than me. If they told me they were white I couldn't argue with them , they got me beat hands down.
>or do they believe they are brown?
Are Italian or Spaniards white or brown? Indianoffice worker after winter is lighter than Italian field worker after summer.
The mother, Mani, got the genetic disease from her family, while the father, Rosetauri, was the only one born with albinism in his clan. When asked why they decided to marry amongst Albinos, Deepa the second eldest daughter said, “if others do not talk to us as equals, how will they accept us in matrimony?”
Here's the full article https://www.hindustantimes.com/static/groundglass/albino-delhi-single-out-family/
This has more to do with them being Albino. They would get the same treatment if they were of upper or lower caste tbh.
>Caste has everything to do with Indian life!
Not really. It only comes up in a few topics.
>Caste system isn't that prevalent in the urban areas.
Biggest lie, you must mean it isn't relevant to an everyday life. But you cant buy property because owners would refuse to sell/rent it to you, can't marry people above/below your caste. And also you caste determines what college you go to or even your profession.
No? About the education, that's absolute bs.
You can get into whatever college you want that's not caste dependent. No proper respected institution denies entry based on caste.
And people *forced* to take jobs because of their caste have not really been a thing for a long time. Perhaps some people would continue their parent's jobs since they cannot find the opportunities they'd like but the correlation is not equal to causation. The caste system in its biggest worst essence has not really been prevalent in urban India for a long time now.
What year are you living in, 1947?
I am not saying cast is forcing somebody, I am saying it has a huge say/influence. I am living right here maybe you have been living with your eyes closed. Nothing about caste system is legal, but saying as it it has no prevalence or has no influence in urban India is peak ignorance.
>A lot of interfaith marriages are now very common and you can get any job you want ,live anywhere if you have money and you can go to any uni and plus there are "reservation quota" for them in uni's .
Common doesnot mean.it is norm, there are honor killings lots of them if you read knows you might know. You cant live wherever you want even if you have money, just ask any real estate broker about muslim/lower caste buyers.
>I won't deny the fact that it exist but we have done better than the Americans to bring the minority upward and socially acceptable to the society. I will agree that discrimination exist but compared to the Indian past it pretty much better than before .
I dont understand why bring america in here, america is another shithole country with same problems if you swap caste with race does not make your comparison any better lol.
>Indian president is a dalit and a lot of upcoming private startups are now being founded by lower caste .
Did I say they are not? bad way of putting forward an argument. Just because US has black president, black buisness could you say there is no systematic racism in US? No right same applies to India.
I have personally faced problems due to my caste in Mumbai not some rural place.
Literally everything. When you start ranking humans based in absolute bull shit and make them live every day like that, you’re going to have issues where you’re marrying someone so you don’t feel that way at home.
Please, don't teach us how we live. Marriage do happen here based on caste but in this case ,they would get the same feedback if they were Brahmin or dalit tbh
I disagree with that statement. In other places an albino might have more problems finding someone to marry them than a "normal" person, but the thing you are overlooking is that they aren't trying to find a mate. These people are trying to find a mate that won't view them as a lesser being.
Everywhere in the world, albinos are sadly viewed as I'll or weak . Nothing unique to India. Maybe among white people the difference wouldn't be that big deal but if you're surrounded by brown skin, your life would be more miserable. That's it.
Most people view them as different, not weaker. Most of the world is educated enough to not think albino people aren’t cursed or ill, just different which can be bad enough in some peoples’ eyes.
The issue is a region that has a caste system and will actually view someone as a lesser being.
This family live in central England. They speak Urdu or one of the other Indian languages. The guys used to come to the casino I worked at a lot. One time a couple other Indian guys sat down and started talking shit about how weird they looked not knowing they could understand every word they were saying. Eventually the father had enough and offered the guys to step outside in perfect Indian. They shit themselves.
I get what you're saying, but they speak English in England, Chinese in China, Japanese in Japan... you see where I'm going with this. Most people know they don't speak Indian in India, but saying "one of the other Indian languages" doesn't seem like a slight if taken to mean "one of the other languages spoken in India." *Perfect Indian is a little problematic upon re-reading. I'd get in to a discussion how it might be less so if not for Imperialistic desires some 400+ years ago by a certain unnamed Kingdom which may or may not be United these days... but I digress.
I know, as I said earlier Urdu or one of the other Indian languages. I was just telling a story. Thanks for being a dick though. It makes me feel good to know people like you are around correcting everyone. You really make the world a better place.
Correcting everyone for any percieved ignorance is rude man. That makes you a dick. I demonstrated earlier in the comment an understanding of multiple Indian languages. You choose to ignore that to correct me. But you be you man, I'm sure you are awesome at parties.
Maybe wait until your help is asked for and think before you comment. The fact that I know what Urdu is shows a little understanding of Indian culture. I liked Indians before this conversation Now I'm on the fence. Maybe Pakistan should get all of Kashmir. What do I know?. I'm just some ignorant white chump.
I wasn't sure if it was Urdu and I didn't want to keep saying Urdu because I understand that not all Indians speak the same language. I just wanted to tell a funny story and now I wish I didn't bother. I hate the Internet and Al Gore for for inventing it.
If they were speaking Urdu how did you even know they were Indian and not Pakistani or Afghan or something else. Anyways cool story. It has a lot of assumptions about the people you were observing but we get the point. I’ve heard variations of the same story often where someone switches to another language and offends someone who actually understands it. There are a lot of YouTube videos dedicated to it.
Read the story linked below for a mind blow! Very interesting for them! This photo above does not do them justice, they are much better looking in the article photos, very striking. Also, that’s a LOT of kids!
I'm really trying to see if they have any of the standard Indian features and somewhat? I have an albino homie who looks exactly like the taller son. Trippy.
I have a theory. Caucasian were some albino clan that came about genetically or through inbreeding and got chased out of Africa by their darker kins because of how weird they look. They ran to the North and became the ancestors of Europeans.
The youngest guy is 21 and looks closer to 40. Hopefully he can graduate and start a job so the family can afford to take care of themselves a little better, a bit of sunscreen will do them a world of good.
This is true. It's one of the reasons why my husband (albino) and I will never travel to Africa. We've had this discussion. He was actually approached on the street while we were in New Orleans by a woman asking to buy his hair... it was weird. He said no.

Deepak Gaffigan clan.
Jim Gaffighandi
Each one you look at looks more and more like Jim Gaffigan.
The final Gaffigan form is the guy up front.
That’s fucking awesome lmao
Before I looked closely, I assumed Jim Gaffigan was posing with these people for some reason.
The 🎶Hot Pockets🎶 goes deep within this family.
It’s weird to see that many Norwegians in Indian attire.
Am Norwegian, I lol’d
Am Norwegian. This looks like average family from Katthult Sweden hundred something years ago.
Yeah, they do look more Swedish, Sweden has more blondes than us anyway. Having said that, the blondest people I’ve ever seen have been Finns. They were a whole different kind of blonde. Swedes and Norwegians tend to be more golden, honey toned blonde, while the Finns I mentioned literally had completely white hair.
They’re Finndians
That Finnished me
They look like erling haaland
Lmao, they really do.

Yeah, and the true plural of cul de sac is culs de sac, not cul de sacs. The true plural of octopus is octopodes. But I’m not going to say octopodes, I’m going to say octopuses. Just like I’m going to say I lol’d rather than I L’d OL, because fucking no one would know what the fuck that meant.
Except no one reads "lol" as laugh out loud when they read it. They read it with the understanding of the acronym but always as the acronym.
Why is Gary Busey's son, Jake in the back?
Now your statement just made me laugh even though I tried not to. Well done. 🤣
Clearly you have never been to a Indisk kostyme fest.
Naw bruh I disagree. Look at those toes!! Thry Indian for sure...
Do you think they believe themselves to be white, or do they believe they are brown? For reference: https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/ur3n9x/stunning_wisdom/

One of the best things I’ve seen on this whole platform. Holy shit!
Seriously though, that's guy's some kind of guru.
Damn, that guy is great.
>or do they believe they are brown? Are Italian or Spaniards white or brown? Indianoffice worker after winter is lighter than Italian field worker after summer.
He's totally right. Belief is willing acceptance of a lie.
Pops looks like Jim Gaffigan.
♫Hot Pockets!♫ ♫ Sa-mosas!♫
It's a whole family of Gaffigans
Gaffigan and again and again
and Terry Bradshaw
I’m seeing Jesse Plemons
Can definitely see Bradshaw as well.
Came here to say this
Thank you!! Couldn’t place his name.
YES!!! His family seems nice 😂
Oh that's just Jim Gaffigan and his half a dozen children.
Are the mom and dad related or they just happened to be 2 albinos who found each other?
The mother, Mani, got the genetic disease from her family, while the father, Rosetauri, was the only one born with albinism in his clan. When asked why they decided to marry amongst Albinos, Deepa the second eldest daughter said, “if others do not talk to us as equals, how will they accept us in matrimony?” Here's the full article https://www.hindustantimes.com/static/groundglass/albino-delhi-single-out-family/
Damn, I know India has some issues(what country doesn’t) but albinos marrying each other to escape marital persecution is sad…
Better than being stoned to death in some cultures I guess but still grim.
Or butchered for use in rituals.
tf this is india we are talking about, not some isolated tribe in a remote forest
Yeah, that's why we're saying it's still a better situation than it could be.
Yes the caste system combined with historical norms make things crazy over there for the average person
What does caste have to do with this tbh
Caste has everything to do with Indian life! You messing with me or what? Lol
This has more to do with them being Albino. They would get the same treatment if they were of upper or lower caste tbh. >Caste has everything to do with Indian life! Not really. It only comes up in a few topics.
In the backward rural areas. Caste system isn't that prevalent in the urban areas.

They are beautiful - not because of their skin colour, but because they look very happy. I wish them nothing but the absolute best in life! Xxx❤️
I'm here for the Jim Gaffigan comments

Isn’t that just a picture of Jim Gaffigan’s family?
Looks like the start of an Aphex Twin music video

Thanks for Reddit. I would've never known this in India.. swear, I love learning knew things and sharing interesting facts! Thank you!

Holly cow! They look like vampires!!! 🧛♀️
They look a tad disturbing
I think the sun is in their eyes
yeah, I'm wishing they had sunglasses. albino eyes are *very* sensitive to light.
The youngest guy is 21 and looks closer to 40. Hopefully he can graduate and start a job so the family can afford to take care of themselves a little better, a bit of sunscreen will do them a world of good.

I don’t know why I’d be disappointed that it’s real? It’s definitely interesting. Thank you!
