British Lad you do have a point,i have seen a lot of ''''sikh'''' boys and girls,wear these Islamic Yasser Arafat Style Tea Towels around their necks,what really takes the biscuit is when Paks wear them on Eid ,and then you see apneh wearing them as well.
The hindu element to this is these new rakhari style strings with beads,that girls wear.
These and other fashions make us look like Hindus and Muslims,especially Yasser Arafat Style Tea Towels which girls wear,one you say your Sikh the next they got these things around their necks and dressed like the Mujhahadeen,this goes to Sikh Boys as well
you have a point but not all the scarves are like that some are totally different like mine is not like that its black and blue checks. wearing that style of scarf pictured above is abit dodgy i mean its ok for gorai because its a fashion thing for them no one will question their intentions. but apneh would look like islamic extremists or something or supporting their cause.
