Chinese folks, why are you so curious about the Indian Caste System

I have been asked about my caste twice now by Chinese immigrants. I’m really curious if the Indian caste system is taught in China and is it the “only” thing you learn about your neighbor? It’s super rude to ask one’s caste. Indians don’t go about asking each other’s caste when they meet new Indian people. Caste is a very complicated topic. It’s also very personal. Please stop doing that. EDIT: I would like to be crystal clear that I’m not defending the caste system. Would you just casually ask an African American if they are descendants from salves? Would you casually ask a white person if their family was a slave owner? These are not ice-breaking topics

Caste is superior to any other system

How is caste system personal ? lol Also it’s not Indian it’s Hindu !! Also , Indian/Hindus don’t go about asking each others cast because they guess it from the last name so please shut the fuck up ! Also it’s not complicated ... just like any violation of human rights or form of bigotry PS - I’m ( a Hindu ) Indian

WTF it is not a violation, it’s better for the society

You just explained why. It’s impossible to understand it by reading about it because everything is censored. You’ll never write truth about it. So people want to know from survivors. It’s a unique system and nobody else has it. Don’t assume that we’re rude. We just don’t know it’s rude to ask about it. Now that I know it’s a sensitive subject I stopped asking but am still curious.

Apple majong OP Jul 7, 2019

Thanks! And I would love to sit down with someone and discuss it. Not that I’m the sole subject matter expert but I can definitely add meaningful perspectives.

There is a lot of propaganda that is spread about India by the state controlled news sources in China. I find it amusing.

I mean if you are from a high caste there's nothing wrong with sharing that right? It's like the Chinese version of TC or GTFO except only used for Indians

But it doesn’t make sense for visa.
