    are you quite sure , because its amazing how many apnay are marrying gujus and panjabi hindus  and seperating the next generation from sikhi

    You sound like those black women who seethe and shame black men for marrying out of their community because black guys don't want to deal with the mess that is hateful black women. 😅

    Saying that, diaspora Sikh guys are clowns, tbf.

    The code of conduct in a Darbar (court) of Guru ji is as that of a worldly king. Yet we see Sikhs chatting away, utterly disrespecting our Guru.

    This seems to be getting worse with the passage of time. It's absolutely shameful. A complete lack of respect. They treat the gurdwara like a glorified community centre.

  3. In a few years, there will be Western Sikhs who'll defend this ^^^ as a natural and necessary component of progressiveness. Once something begins to be spoken of in an accepting manner, no matter how heinous, certain Sikh sheep won't hesitate to cheerlead for its perpetuation as a norm. The Slippery Slope was never a fallacy.

    how do they not though? Like a lot of "sikh" men think of it as a burden that adds hindrance to their lives. Just see how many posts are on reddit that I want to cut my hair. It makes no sense that someone who doesn't believe will go out of their way to wear a turban for the rest of the life. IDK man you would expect people like these to cut their hair. (if using an example of KP Gill or other so called"sikh" traitors who killed our people  and continue to harm us then they worse turbans to blend in and to make it look like they were right since they themselves had uncut hair). I think the belief that people wear turban in Punjab culturally is not correct as many of such turbaned athiests have the saroop to blend in and fool Sikhs and harm us.

    You can't really measure someone's sense of religious sincerity based on how they look. Even baptism isn't entirely an accurate indication of someone's inner state. Grown men aren't going to start lopping off hair and removing turbans because they don't measure up to some arbitrarily defined guidelines on what a "good" Sikh should be. If anything, this is an issue that's come to bite us in the behind, i.e. incessantly emphasising the transient and material external as an indicator of the transcendent internal. Spirituality sophisticated cultures and civilisations don't promote this low-level thinking. Pendu cultures do.

  5. I guess being demure and feminine is antiquated in Sikh culture nowadays. 

    Ultimately, this behaviour is partly a response to the type of behaviour Sikh males exhibit themselves. If Sikh guys made their displeasure clear about this kind of carry-on - and didn't take part in any of it themselves - this nonsense would end overnight.

    Nope. Such a shame. I'd rather they cut their hair than do this while wearing a turban. Its clear they don't really believe in Sikhi as they wouldn't be doing so otherwise so why keep the turban? Doesn't make sense.

    Most Sikhs don't imbue the turban with religious meaning... even some of the ones who actually wear one! The turban existed as a head covering for Punjabi males prior to 1699. It's culture, not religion. The phenomena we're seeing in modern times is the turban being used as a means to "shape-shift" between various groups.

    Another guy got caught stealing a car in our city and had the last name Singh. Like the word Singh is just going to be associated with bad things now with all the happenings. Also when turban wearing "Punjabis" commit such crimes it affects the reputation of Sikhs way worse compared to some mona doing it because the turban is our identity.

    Do you remember that To Catch A Predator episode where the full Singh (not a trimmer) was caught at a 13 year-old girl's house. It was a sting but he was there to do her over! It was crazy because he was an obvious immigrant but he was quite good-looking and a decent English speaker.

    The more recent student migrants are not liked by the older migrants of Keneda. 

    I have a relative who went "study based" and they mentioned that even in the gurdwaras that the older migrants do not know  why these "students " are in Keneda and they should go back to Punjab.

    This is a gurdwara in Surrey. You cannot get more Sikh or theth Punjabi than Surrey BC (more so than in Punjab)

    There is more open disgust  there than what is compared to the UK.

    I recently met up with some old family I hadn't seen since I was a kid. They moved to Canada from the UK about 30 years ago, and they largely say the same stuff. I also think an element of social status / class has crept into these attitudes. Even the relatively recent (2010+) arrivals from Punjab who had a comfortable middle class existence in Punjab (headmasters, teachers, nurses, doctors, etc) definitely don't think too favourably of the gob5hite, pendu Moosewale lovers who've flocked to Canada. In fact, I'm seeing more of that old-school jaat discrimination being transferred to intra-jaat differences in places like Canada where inter-caste albeit equal-social-status marriage is on the rise at the expense of same-caste yet unequal-social-status being rejected. It seems when caste use to denote social standing in the old country, it was used to discriminate. But this has gradually given way in migrant diaspora communities to a form of class discrimination. Fascinating. Man always finds way of building boundaries.

    However, the bulk of Keneda population is probably 20 years more established and the differences are far less and there is more similarities. So coming to somewhere like Surrey or Brampton there is less need to integrate and be on guard so they are more like themselves.

    Opportunism. And they get upset when someone like me tells them they only know how to behave and contribute to society when there's a boot (figurative or otherwise) on their necks. Some of them grin and look sheepish because they know it's true. 

  10. Why do the same pool of Sikh emigrants who go to European countries not chimp out over here? 

    Is it the safety / comfort of being a proportionally larger minority in  a Canada that panders to Sikhs that gives them the confidence to throw their weight around? 

    I've seen the same type of dead-eyed, predatory Sikh immigrant in the UK who could've easily gone to Canada, but when they come here they don't let out a peep.
