maybe they should actually check to see how many blondes and red heads there are in india before crying about lack of diversity

your countries beauty queen is supposed to be representative of the population, not the minority few

About as much diversity as you'd find at a Miss Black America pageant.

That is like saying people from Iowa are technically North American.

Id like to add that the majority of indians are conservative and would never walk around on stage half naked.

The only reason mainly SE Asians (Chinese, Japanese, etc.) are considered Asians and not middle eastern people or Indians is because most of the immigration used to be from those SE Asian countries.

If you go to some countries (like the U.K.), Asians mainly refer to Indians, Pakistanis, ME etc. not SE Asian because there’s more of the former group there.

Now for purposes of census, ID (like driver’s license), or getting into something like Med School (Asians have higher standards) everyone from the Asian continent is considered Asian. It’s stupid it’s considered a race.

Let's see, it is India, and India has Indian women.

What is the fuss?


They are all light skinned.

It’s like if Miss Black America chose contestants who all had Halle Berry’s shade. I personally DGAF, but that’s what they’re mad about.
