Just remembered a story when I worked at corporate, male collagues said these guys were in the bathroom washing their feet in the sink before their prayers.. a year later they gave them their own separate bathroom cos people complained. And just the other day at my local shoprite parking lot this guy parked, took out his rug and knelt facing the sun or whatever to pray , Pakistani ..
Also my husband just told me they don’t use toilet paper after poop they have to use water.. practice known as intija… so they use toilet water? Yuck
Okay, if you're going to tell that story, then you have to tell the whole thing. Yes, they splash water on their asses. They always use their left hand to do it, so they can eat and shake hands with their right safely. Not ideal, but at least they work with what they have. And they only do that when there is no toilet paper.
I'm glad Americans are finally being treated fairly, as it should be, but good grief. These are poor people who took advantage of opportunities that were offered to them. The real culprits are the corporations and corrupt governments that abused H-1B1.
I know many Indians who are fine people. They are not the uncouth savages some here claim them to be. I find this attitude ignorant and disappointing.
That makes so much sense - and it fills in a gap in my understanding.
I'm a lefty. Before I went to India, I was coached to not use my left hand for eating. I understood it to be frowned upon and not done. I did not fully understand why at the time. I just figured that it was a cultural taboo.
I have lived in the Arab Gulf since 2004. Most toilets have handheld water guns similar to what you see at American kitchen sinks. They range from cheap plastic to expensive metal. Usually the pressure is not so good, but at one gym, if you open the valve on the wall, you can get a bit of a high colonic backflush effect, then reduce the pressure a bit just to clean the outside. It is really nice when the water is a bit warm!
I have seen some bathrooms that simply have a water spigot on the wall and a flower watering pot, but that is rare these days.
not laughter, the guys were pissed off.. and they were cussing at Bush or Obama for flooding our state with these people. They were Republicans. Everyone will always be pissed off when they see these people around acting like this and destroying America.

Now I know why it would be frowned upon.
Oh my goodness. Don't shake hands. But how to avoid handrails? Yikes.
don't go anywhere near them.. air fist bump maybe? Say your hands were just touching bacon before
🤣
