Today we are going to talk about 5 myths associated with Northeast India that are simply not true.
It would be really helpful if you could share this post !! Let's spread the word.
ok so without further ado, let’s Go!!
1. Northeastern People hate Indian Culture and are highly westernized
Ok, what is Indian culture, to begin with? Isn’t India a multicultural and pluralistic country?
We have different cultures in India. Just because a particular tradition and culture starkly
differ from the one we are familiar with, it doesn’t necessarily mean it's alien to India.
Nor does it mean that the people practising those cultures are being anti-national( a very overused modern term by the way) And when it comes to westernization, It’s not fair to
single out northeastern people. Globalization has a reach and impact each and every corner of India.
2. Northeastern girls are shameless and are cheap
As I have said before India has a diverse culture, and what’s considered shameful in some parts of the country might not have the same effect in another part of the country. That being said Northeastern girls are in no way cheap or shameless, they just have a different sense of fashion and style of interaction. Each and every community have cheap people, it’s not just restricted to the northeasterners. Just ask Sonam and her boyfriends
3. They only like to party and never studies
They can be a Keralite, a Northeasterner or even a Punjabi, but they certainly do not represent their community. There are thousands of the unseen northeastern Nerds and Geeks. I myself included.
4. They eat everything that moves
Well, I must admit We northeasterners do eat a lot of crazy stuff. Do you know? We even eat bamboo shoots, the least nutritious grass ever!!
but Northeasterners certainly do not eat everything that moves. Are you kidding me? Yes, there are some people who eat dogs, but they are not the majority. Dogs are eaten by some people for traditional reasons, and there are some people who like to sip in some alcohol with dog meat. Well, I haven’t tried it out yet but, it does sound fun. There are lots of Vegetarian Northeasterners, heck we even got enough vegans who could utterly ruin your Chicken Biryani lunch break.
