I wasn't told about caste growing up. I only realised it was an issue aged about 15 when I started knocking about with another apna (there weren't that many apnay where I grew up). Anyway he was the one that asked me what caste I was. I didn't know. I had to go home and ask my moms. That guy was a jut from Uganda whose family got thrown out, and boy was he crooked. By the time he was 17, he'd been arrested like 15 times already for stealing, and his family weren't exactly poor like mine was at that time (single parent). He was really obsessed with caste, as was his father and one of his brothers and cousins.  

 

 

I hope the obsession is getting diluted with the newer generations. 

But i have also noticed this has brought in out of religion marriages.

Can't win really get a decrease in obsession with castes and a increase of out of religion marriages.

Tbh no-one really mentions caste anymore apart from the older generations, not many people care about caste now.

You might get the odd few but thats about it.

I don't agree. A strong Sikh identity actually leads to 'inter-caste' marriages within apnay. It's Juttian who identify strongly with caste who sh@g around with sullay from what I've seen. Because most Paks are actually juts themselves. Don't you guys know that?

Where are you from? Im from Leeds UK, here you see Sikh girls with every type of race possible.

Also have you ever been on those indian dating sites the girls always mention their caste and if you not the same caste they will not respond.

Maybe this is wishful thinking? Just do a search on Panjabi music on Youtube over the last 5 years and see for yourself. Many apnay are obsessed with jaat-paat (well juts anyway). Recently (as in last 2/3 years) I've been working in construction and bozos (eastern Europeans) have been coming up to me and asking about caste because some hogi jut has been filling their heads up with those notions.  So juts are so f**ked up, that they've been slyly filling nonSIkh heads up with their bahmanvaad thinking, and that is how some nonSikhs  imagine our society to be.

Even a snake is not as devious and two faced as many juts are. Juts are in denial about this.

In a way, I agree. Jatts are probably the loudest about their caste idk why lol 

However its not taken as seriously as it was.

I was in Leeds about 20 years ago when I was in uni meeting other members of a well known Sikh 'gang' who originated from B'ham if you know who I mean (sssshhhhhh!)

 

 I ain't surprised at what you say. I noticed the two-facery in the brothers I met there (when it came to caste) even back then. 

 

I'm from East London btw.

Yeah i can figure out who you mean lol

Ohh the two face Singhs here is next level lol its all about the dollar,  dollar bills y'all, drink, coke and just have a good time lol 

Sikh guys treating Sikh girls like goria and vice versa,  then get to around 30 marry someone out side of Leeds, keep doing shenanigans until around 55 then they find the Guru, take amrit and chill, goto Gudwara and listen to paath.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
