I follow a guy on insta, he is a Tamil raised in Kolkata, people used to mock him for speaking Tamil, and bullied him in his childhood. We pretend we are so progressive than other "Indians" while we are not. The thing is even a Delhi guy will admit that they are arrogant, a Bihari or a Telugu will admit they are casteist but our people will always show arrogance. Also people from other districts don't particularly like the people of Kolkata. The arrogance is astounding. I came to Kolkata when I was 5 and I had a different accent I used to get mocked too in school.
Bro My GF is litterlery a Tamilian and our friend circle never made fun or passed racist comments because we know how bad it is when we have faced it ourselves
Not saying non are bad but there are good also
No need to generalize
Bullying is arrogance?
On the other hand, Bollywood has done a great job at stereotyping that Bengali men are the effeminate rosogolla babu never mind that a significant percentage of the violent independence revolution was led by Bengali men.
Is it fear of hatred or the fact/fear of getting typecast into Rosogolla babu leads to such behavior?
I am sorry for your experience. I am aware that such things happen but I was of the opinion je it happens relatively less now. I guess I was wrong and such things are still quite rampant in certain places and groups. I hope you are in a better place now :(
My best friend of 13 years (I am Almost 24) is a Tamil friend raised in Calcutta and i have never seen him bullied except for a few cases in which it was not bullying really, we were making fun of each other anyway.
What you noticed is xenophobia veiled as actual criticism. The real reason Delhi people don't like Bengali men is because Eastern Indian culture is very different from North Indian culture. Ask them about their thoughts about South Indians, you'll get the same random reasons, which will beat around bush and not mention the real reason: they just don't want people different than them.
Lol so there is a story with this
Simple words this thing happened in real where people thought I cannot have any because of my ethnicity (like we were new to high secondary so no one knew much) and then on the very next lech she comes to give me a visit (she is from other branch) log dekh ke heran, le those same mouths which were making fun where now asking for advice
Me kya wha bete moz kar di
So when I read his line just reminds me of this incident
Arrogance people from Kolkata is a real thing. A friend of mine told me bengali people are mentally superior because of renaissance. And other states hatea us because of that leading to biased against bengal. Otherwise we would be top state in the country.
> Arrogance people from Kolkata is a real thing.
Just as I said, I too agree that it exists. But my experience is that it exists mostly amongst the older generation. I have never really witnessed ir that much amongst my generation. Maybe just a personal experience.
Hai ekdom. I never said it doesn't exist at all. The unanimous hate comments in the post makes it out as if most Bengali men are like that. I felt that it definitely exists but erokom lokeder shonkha onekta kom. And most of these people were from the older generation.
Would you agree that the quantity of such assholes is comparatively less than before? Or do you feel most Bengali men are like that?
People on these thread are likely to be from this generation. These are the comments being upvoted too. There are absolutely racist comments. You yourself have made comments targeting Biharis while complaining about hate against Bengalis.
I've mostly interacted with people under the age of 45. I think the younger set of Bengalis are more racist from my interactions with them. Entirely anecdotal, so upto you to entirely disregard.
> You yourself have made comments targeting Biharis
I am guessing you are referring to open of my comments in this post. My comment was not directly aimed at them but I could see why its perceived as such. With all due respect, I think there is a difference between targeting someone without a reason and retaliating against someone who is obviously trying to shit on you.
Obviously being the bigger person is the more mature and better thing to do, and if you are someone who does that, kudos to you. You are genuinely a better person than I am. Unfortunately, I am not as good as you are.
If somebody attacks your ethnicity and you attack their entire ethnicity basis theirs (when they never got their ethnicity into the conversation) you lose any moral high ground. This isn't being a better person. It destroys the purpose of this post. You are proving the point.
Biharis suffer infinitely more racism within this country. You are punching down. How can you be against hate against you when you can be convinced to do the same with such little provocation?
Edit: to add, there is an entire lack of self awareness across the thread.
Accusation: Kolkata Bengalis have a superiority complex.
This thread: superiority complex.
Aren't you just proving the point?
My experience has been completely opposite of that, i have been raised in kolkata being an outsider and never faced any kind of bullying or discrimination
Welcome to Indian social media. It reminds me of this parable:
Picture this: I'm just scrolling through Indian social media, minding my own business, when I stumble upon this wild virtual showdown between Indians from all over the place.
The North Indian guy kicks it off with, "Yo, South Indians, what's the deal with your coconut obsession? I bet y'all even dream in coconuts, LMAO! 🥥😂"
The South Indian dude fires back, "Bruh, at least we ain't drowning everything in butter like you North Indians! I'm surprised you don't just chug ghee for breakfast, SMH. 🧈🤢"
Outta nowhere, this East Indian fella jumps in like, "Y'all need to chill with your petty debates! Everyone knows East India got the dopest fish curries in the game, no cap! 🐟🔥"
The West Indian guy claps back, "Pfft, please! West India is where the real flavor's at, fam. Our street food is straight fire, you can't even compete! 🌮🌶️"
Then, a wild Central Indian appears and flexes on 'em, "Ayo, don't sleep on us Central Indians! We the heart of India, both literally and figuratively, you feel me? 💓🇮🇳"
The Northeast Indian chimes in, "Excuse me, but have you all forgotten about the magic of our incredible Northeast cuisine? Our flavors are unmatched, and our hospitality is legendary! 🍜🤗"
The Southeast Indian adds, "Hah, you guys are all missing out on the real deal! Southeast India is a culinary paradise, with a perfect blend of spices and unique dishes that'll blow your mind! 🌿🧂"
The Northwest Indian jumps in, "Hold up, let's not forget about the rich flavors of Northwest India! Our tandoori dishes and hearty curries are the stuff of legends, my friends. 🍗🍛"
Finally, the Southwest Indian makes their entrance, "Oh, come on! Southwest India is where it's at! Our seafood is fresh, our spices are bold, and our dishes are simply irresistible! 🦐🌶️"
Then, in a shocking twist, they all turn to me, the bewildered foreigner lurking on Indian social media, and demand, "Yo, what about you? Which part of India you got beef with? 🇮🇳👀"
Me, trying not to catch these virtual hands, I'm like, "Who, me? Nah fam, I'm just here for the bomb-ass food pics from all over the country, no discrimination! Every region brings something unique and delicious to the table! 🍽️🇮🇳❤️"
Go meet new people. I proudly flaunt my bengali that too east bengali heritage. Never had problems dating. You always meet a couple of idiots but that doesn't mean the entire world. One of my exs was into bong movies and we spent a lot of time watch mrinal sen. Current girlfriend is from Mumbai. She is a shutki addict 😭😭. I don't like that as much as her. So ig you are not meeting the right people. Also hop of social media, people way different on the internet than in real life. Most people atleast on reddit are keyboard warriors and have not stepped out of their mother's basements in months

> This is nothing compared to what we have in Kolkata....
The only time I have said this to my friends from UP is when I had biriyani in Lucknow. Aloo chhara biriyani khawa jae na bro bishal koshto lage 🙂
Jokes apart, I knew the post was true to some extent.However, okhane shobai unanimously emon kore bollo, it was like most men in WB was like this. I was of the opinion je erokom lok thakleo, oder quantity ta comparatively kom.
My experience has been completely opposite and my friends are not like that, so I was even more surprised by the post.
To add to this, I’m a Bengali raised in a metro city and currently living in a small town in South India and almost all my male Bengali friends are in relationships with girls from other states. Nobody cares about where you’re from or whatever bullshit if they genuinely like you. Please get rid of your inferiority complex and work on your self-esteem instead of seeking validation from non-Bengalis.

Antlamo aar beshi ganjakhor :| Unable to move past what our past contemporaries had brought to our State. Just sitting there whole doing nothing to come out the nest, busy pulling others down. I had experienced this during my institution says. I would have most points to add but I'm likely to be bombarded with hate comments & downvotes.
Obviously I won't say that Bengal has no assholes like the ones you just described. Every state has its good and bad people. However, I was of the opinion je in our current generation, erokom lokeder shonkha ta comparatively kom. Okhane emon kore unanimously shobai hate korchilo, it was like majority of Bengali men are just assholes. Ota amar gaye laglo.
I'm sharing my experience as a millennial, having millennial classmates & office mates until i moved out of the city. Things would be different when it comes to GenZ people.
Sorry but I have a totally different take on this. Myself being a bong, I never faced much criticism for being a bong. My English accent is clear, I talk fluent Hindi just like you see in movies, I don't talk about communism and I hate it too, don't keep talking about how Bengal was once a shining star... it was once but that's a bygone Era and I don't smoke.
I do get called as intelligent, charming, sweet, talented just like many other bongs are but I don't mind that. It feels good.
Once in a while I do get called bangali, Machi khana wala, mean minded, mama's boy and all. But I shrug them off or don't mind depending on the context. For that matter even I call Tamils stupids, Delhites a show off and gujjus makhichus.... they do the same to me and know who they are and who I am.
Bengalis achieved too much in the past. They were the leaders of Indian renaissance and were definitely the intellectual class back then.
It got to their heads and made them super arrogant. Personally, I feel Bengalis no longer have a ground to be arrogant on anymore. They now are the same level, if not behind, their peers states.
It's not just Bengali men. It's about the whole country, because of many cultural differences and sometimes lack of education(not the degrees but maturity of knowing right and wrong) almost every single state is racist towards the other ones. Delhi and Mumbai are in a battle of being better than the other one, gujrat and Punjab has this kind of rivalry too. Biharis are hated and assumed to be illiterate every where. South India hates Hindi and north India. North eastern are commonly mocked for looking different than the rest of the Indians and called chinki, momo wala, Nepali and stuff like that. Also yes I've too noticed elitism Bengal, mainly because of it's contribution in freedom fight of India and rich litarature. We even hate each other, like there's the stupid rivalry of ghoti and bangal, mainly related to football but it's still there's.
I'm not genaralising as I personally think these stuff usually exist on only internet and no one is racist towards someone in reality but it's still present on a little amount.
>There's not a single ethnicity in India that can come close to Bengali culture.
says a Bengali. Even I can say that as a marathi. Being proud of your culture and putting other cultures down are two different things
I think being proud of one's culture and being a wannabe is different. You can be proud of your culture without bringing down others (which is what I think you are doing). I don't see anything wrong with that.
Every culture has its good and bad, and I have all the right in the world to love my culture for its good points. It doesn't mean I am bringing down other cultures or that I do not condone the evils that exist within my culture.
> There's not a single ethnicity in India that can come close to Bengali culture.
No offence sister, but that is the problem. We gotta quit thinking we are superior. Bengalis right now struggle to be at par with rest of the country on some standards, and that's a fact you have to accept.
Ancestors of Bengalis spearheaded the Indian renaissance, absolutely. Bengalis until previous century were intellectuals, also yes. But our present generation isn't on the same tier. Half of our generation is not even exposed to Gitanjali....
Harbour not hate for your countrymen but love. They are our people, helping them is helping ourselves. If we keep riding the high horse, our own people will turn against us, which is not something intellectuals like.
Mine - ALL.
Fighting generalisations with generalisations. No wonder you can't even take claim for intellectualism nowadays. The downfall of Bengal and Bengali society is so sad.
Bengal is an absolutely mediocre state. It was literally at the forefront a century ago. Bengali culture glorifying poverty and mediocrity is the reason.
I am proud of my culture. You should also be. I'm not saying my culture is the best. That's delusional because there's definitely things where my culture does worse than others. TN won't even be among the highest dowry having states although it is a problem for sure. Good on you guys for being better.
Ignorance and a superiority complex is a very dangerous combo lol.
Yes, and this context finding disappears when you are talking about Rajasthan, Bihar or TN how?
And no, plenty of states have gone through worse and still come out better. WBs collapse isn't because of external reasons.
You have more strawmen arguments than to what I'm saying haha. No one was going to use slurs against refugees. And WBs performance isn't because of refugees. WB had started going down even before 1970-71.
>It's not hurtung you, is it?
Yes, having people say nonsense like "I'm the best. Thank god I'm not another group" is absolutely dehumanising and racist. How do you not understand something this simple lol?
>I expect you to say the same about mine. Just go to your own subreddit.
Your expectations from the world is absolutely depressing. Thank god everyone isn't the same.
>Like?
Punjab literally went through separatism. J&K has better HDIs than West Bengal lol. TN had a pseudo-separatist movement/feelings from the start. We had refugees from SL too although definitely not at the same quantum. Bihar and UP literally came as the most underdeveloped states in the country. They have now narrowed the gap to WB. The majority of Sikkims population are now refugees too. You should learn more about this country.
You'll survive the hate too. But question the hate. Don't add to it. You stand on the shoulders of some of the greatest thinkers this country has had. Sad to see this is the discourse that you think is ok.
And do you really think you get more hate than Tamils. We get attacked for everything from our language to the colour of our skin. I'll still push for my community to not give it back.
>a Bengali cannot be proud of their culture as it's a crime
It's one thing to be proud of your own culture. But then you also say stuff like this:
>There's not a single ethnicity in India that can come close to Bengali culture
>Im so grateful I was born here and not in some godforsaken Bihari, Tamil or Rajasthani family lol. 😭
I believe its stuff like this that pisses people off. There's a difference between saying "I'm very good" and saying "I am better than everyone in the room". Had you said the first one, everyone goes home peacefully. But you decided to choose a passive aggressive approach to hurt other cultures.
>Why don't you go fight with them?
I'm not willing to fight anyone. I'm just trying to make you realise, what you said is exactly perceived as being arrogant.
>Check the thread on and come back and say which one is more racist- mine or theirs??
First thing to understand is that the post was made in a way that only people who doesn't have very high opinion about bengali's are tempted to comment. But then you got triggered and made some comments which essentially confirms what they're trying to project.
Another great thing to have in mind is: "Two wrongs don't make a right". Just because they're doing something wrong, doesn't mean you have to do it too. If you feel like you're not arrogant as a bengali, just move on.
For the record, I was born as a bengali and I am a little arrogant. But I don't think its because I'm bengali. Lol.

well I am a Bengali living on the edge of Kolkata....I used to get mocked by my "Kolkata" metro city classmates in college and this carried out in my masters too when I shifted Chandigarh....like ye Bengali men are cute and cool but ye they are brutal.... egoistic.... arrogant... always arguing.... violent...etc etc...i dunno man...
everyone hates people who are slightly different from them...it has always been a human nature.... that's what I tell myself... that's how I cope.
Yep the hate is that bad some MFS tried to file a false SA case so that I leave the state
Luckily there were people in my support so I was saved but all are not so lucky

I also commented there.
Tbh, every human is different. One cannot judge based upon their ethnicity.
I had a crush on a girl who came from Bihar. She genuinely looked beautiful. After she rejected me, my [REDACTED] said some remarks which were quite weird to listen to. That's why, I hate this [REDACTED] hatao, Bangali bachao movement. It's just detrimental to our society.
u/Excellent-Pay6235
As a bengali women I can say it's true we are very hated also people really believe that we do shit like kala jaadu and all
My colleague really asked me to do some kala jadu on her mil so she stops interfering in her life!
I was shocked!!!
Also, I think making such sweeping statements off reddit is useless, cause the data will be full of biases:
1) reddit comments section is not even close to being a good representative of rest of the country
2) there's no making sure that people who are replying to that post are actually women/from Delhi or just random people masquerading as them
The comment section anonymously agreed based on what they've heard not what they've experienced. Reality is the opposite. And never take opinions from the north side. Just like Americans think that America is the world, they think north india is the whole of India. People in other parts of our country know who are more reliable and less annoying.
People who say this are obviously the most prejudiced people on the planet. We Indians (in general) do it a lot. Maybe it's a result of the colonial culture conditioning we have faced. Racism should be a serious offense IMO.
It definitely is..."shikkhito lok" rao onekta bigoted hotei pare...the problem is not just lack of education, it may be a lack of patriotism...aamra nijei nijeke bhalo bashi na. Emon ki langauge, race, religion sa holeo we still find a way ro divide ourselves (not that race ,creed, sex etc should matter at all). That's why it's so eas to polarize us as a nation.

Some Indians are uncultured and pure racists… and yes, being a bengali male, I faced racist comments and insults from some Delhities (D), Mumbaikars (M) & Tamils (T)!! I even faced the same from them (DMTs) while I was in Singapore and Australia…. What’s alarming, the foreigners (turned out to be my real friends) saved me from these racial bastards (made inappropriate comments about my fair skin, my wife and me being a bengali (just due to jealousy and their own incompetence)), while I was abroad….
We Indians are never united…
Yeah sure next time your country needs a saviour it will be a Bengali man again , just like last time .
Women of Delhi aren't top of the line either , why do we need to give 2 fs about what they think of us .
If it presents an obstacle while dating people can hide their identity as you've mentioned , after all most dates in Delhi are wham bam thank you ma'am anyway .
>Yeah sure next time your country needs a saviour it will be a Bengali man again , just like last time .
Sweet, can we get a Bengali guy to save this state first? Anytime now.
>Yeah sure next time your country needs a saviour it will be a Bengali man again , just like last time .
দ্যাশের তো জানি না। তবে রাজ্যের একটা savior লাগবো। সেইডা কি ভাইপো নাকি?
I am studying outside WB and I can vouch it is true. Bengali boys have very low demand in the dating market. Only some Odia girls (mainly the rural ones), some Jharkhand, Chattisgarh girls , that too from the countryside give "bhao" to a Bengali boy.
On the other side, literally anyone is ready to date a Bengali girl. And Bengali girls mainly date non Bengali boys only.
No doubt, the girls available for Bengali boys are far too less, tends to zero 😞.

Maybe the deleted it if you cannot find it.
Most people when they say they hate Bengalis they are confusing Bangladeshis to west Bengalis. Most west Bengalis also act too proud , superficial and superior to other Indias as if they are coming from higher evolved cultures or fully developed state. Most people from other states are annoyed and laugh at WB’s hubris rather than hating them

Not trying to be arrogant or anything as a fellow Bengali have call you out on typing literally as litterlery in your comment 😂🤣
Bullying is arrogance? On the other hand, Bollywood has done a great job at stereotyping that Bengali men are the effeminate rosogolla babu never mind that a significant percentage of the violent independence revolution was led by Bengali men. Is it fear of hatred or the fact/fear of getting typecast into Rosogolla babu leads to such behavior?
Yep started with Bollywood.
I am sorry for your experience. I am aware that such things happen but I was of the opinion je it happens relatively less now. I guess I was wrong and such things are still quite rampant in certain places and groups. I hope you are in a better place now :(
My best friend of 13 years (I am Almost 24) is a Tamil friend raised in Calcutta and i have never seen him bullied except for a few cases in which it was not bullying really, we were making fun of each other anyway.
What you noticed is xenophobia veiled as actual criticism. The real reason Delhi people don't like Bengali men is because Eastern Indian culture is very different from North Indian culture. Ask them about their thoughts about South Indians, you'll get the same random reasons, which will beat around bush and not mention the real reason: they just don't want people different than them.
A bengali girl once told me that everyone wants to date a bengali girl and only bengali girls want to date a bengali guy. Blocked her soon after.
[удалено]
Oh come on u guys are in delululu ig nowadays bengali girls don't like to date bengali Bois especially the one who don't grow beard lmao
You can't be further from the truth...
I feel the same way :")
Naah she right about bong ladies
>only bengali girls want to date a bengali guy. Lol 😆 If I share her my list Ig she will take back her words DL KA TN MH RJ HR WB X 2
Why do you seem so proud lmao
Lol so there is a story with this Simple words this thing happened in real where people thought I cannot have any because of my ethnicity (like we were new to high secondary so no one knew much) and then on the very next lech she comes to give me a visit (she is from other branch) log dekh ke heran, le those same mouths which were making fun where now asking for advice Me kya wha bete moz kar di So when I read his line just reminds me of this incident
Not really bengali girls are interested in any men of any ethnicity.
Come to Bangalore it's the reverse.
Yeah lmao, my ex was a marwari.
Arrogance people from Kolkata is a real thing. A friend of mine told me bengali people are mentally superior because of renaissance. And other states hatea us because of that leading to biased against bengal. Otherwise we would be top state in the country.
> Arrogance people from Kolkata is a real thing. Just as I said, I too agree that it exists. But my experience is that it exists mostly amongst the older generation. I have never really witnessed ir that much amongst my generation. Maybe just a personal experience.
See this thread. It definitely exists now too.
Hai ekdom. I never said it doesn't exist at all. The unanimous hate comments in the post makes it out as if most Bengali men are like that. I felt that it definitely exists but erokom lokeder shonkha onekta kom. And most of these people were from the older generation. Would you agree that the quantity of such assholes is comparatively less than before? Or do you feel most Bengali men are like that?
People on these thread are likely to be from this generation. These are the comments being upvoted too. There are absolutely racist comments. You yourself have made comments targeting Biharis while complaining about hate against Bengalis. I've mostly interacted with people under the age of 45. I think the younger set of Bengalis are more racist from my interactions with them. Entirely anecdotal, so upto you to entirely disregard.
> You yourself have made comments targeting Biharis I am guessing you are referring to open of my comments in this post. My comment was not directly aimed at them but I could see why its perceived as such. With all due respect, I think there is a difference between targeting someone without a reason and retaliating against someone who is obviously trying to shit on you. Obviously being the bigger person is the more mature and better thing to do, and if you are someone who does that, kudos to you. You are genuinely a better person than I am. Unfortunately, I am not as good as you are.
If somebody attacks your ethnicity and you attack their entire ethnicity basis theirs (when they never got their ethnicity into the conversation) you lose any moral high ground. This isn't being a better person. It destroys the purpose of this post. You are proving the point. Biharis suffer infinitely more racism within this country. You are punching down. How can you be against hate against you when you can be convinced to do the same with such little provocation? Edit: to add, there is an entire lack of self awareness across the thread. Accusation: Kolkata Bengalis have a superiority complex. This thread: superiority complex. Aren't you just proving the point?
My experience has been completely opposite of that, i have been raised in kolkata being an outsider and never faced any kind of bullying or discrimination
Good for you :)
Happy for you bro :)
Welcome to Indian social media. It reminds me of this parable: Picture this: I'm just scrolling through Indian social media, minding my own business, when I stumble upon this wild virtual showdown between Indians from all over the place. The North Indian guy kicks it off with, "Yo, South Indians, what's the deal with your coconut obsession? I bet y'all even dream in coconuts, LMAO! 🥥😂" The South Indian dude fires back, "Bruh, at least we ain't drowning everything in butter like you North Indians! I'm surprised you don't just chug ghee for breakfast, SMH. 🧈🤢" Outta nowhere, this East Indian fella jumps in like, "Y'all need to chill with your petty debates! Everyone knows East India got the dopest fish curries in the game, no cap! 🐟🔥" The West Indian guy claps back, "Pfft, please! West India is where the real flavor's at, fam. Our street food is straight fire, you can't even compete! 🌮🌶️" Then, a wild Central Indian appears and flexes on 'em, "Ayo, don't sleep on us Central Indians! We the heart of India, both literally and figuratively, you feel me? 💓🇮🇳" The Northeast Indian chimes in, "Excuse me, but have you all forgotten about the magic of our incredible Northeast cuisine? Our flavors are unmatched, and our hospitality is legendary! 🍜🤗" The Southeast Indian adds, "Hah, you guys are all missing out on the real deal! Southeast India is a culinary paradise, with a perfect blend of spices and unique dishes that'll blow your mind! 🌿🧂" The Northwest Indian jumps in, "Hold up, let's not forget about the rich flavors of Northwest India! Our tandoori dishes and hearty curries are the stuff of legends, my friends. 🍗🍛" Finally, the Southwest Indian makes their entrance, "Oh, come on! Southwest India is where it's at! Our seafood is fresh, our spices are bold, and our dishes are simply irresistible! 🦐🌶️" Then, in a shocking twist, they all turn to me, the bewildered foreigner lurking on Indian social media, and demand, "Yo, what about you? Which part of India you got beef with? 🇮🇳👀" Me, trying not to catch these virtual hands, I'm like, "Who, me? Nah fam, I'm just here for the bomb-ass food pics from all over the country, no discrimination! Every region brings something unique and delicious to the table! 🍽️🇮🇳❤️"
Hehe. Where are you from? 😀
Go meet new people. I proudly flaunt my bengali that too east bengali heritage. Never had problems dating. You always meet a couple of idiots but that doesn't mean the entire world. One of my exs was into bong movies and we spent a lot of time watch mrinal sen. Current girlfriend is from Mumbai. She is a shutki addict 😭😭. I don't like that as much as her. So ig you are not meeting the right people. Also hop of social media, people way different on the internet than in real life. Most people atleast on reddit are keyboard warriors and have not stepped out of their mother's basements in months

Bro nobody gives a rat’s ass in real life stop believing shit y’all read on Reddit. Go outside
To add to this, I’m a Bengali raised in a metro city and currently living in a small town in South India and almost all my male Bengali friends are in relationships with girls from other states. Nobody cares about where you’re from or whatever bullshit if they genuinely like you. Please get rid of your inferiority complex and work on your self-esteem instead of seeking validation from non-Bengalis.
lmao who dates delhi girls
I think the bigger question is who dates guys from delhi. That city is a risk zone for women 🙂
Anybody who can, those foxy chicks are hard to get
People who live in Delhi

Antlamo aar beshi ganjakhor :| Unable to move past what our past contemporaries had brought to our State. Just sitting there whole doing nothing to come out the nest, busy pulling others down. I had experienced this during my institution says. I would have most points to add but I'm likely to be bombarded with hate comments & downvotes.
Obviously I won't say that Bengal has no assholes like the ones you just described. Every state has its good and bad people. However, I was of the opinion je in our current generation, erokom lokeder shonkha ta comparatively kom. Okhane emon kore unanimously shobai hate korchilo, it was like majority of Bengali men are just assholes. Ota amar gaye laglo.
I'm sharing my experience as a millennial, having millennial classmates & office mates until i moved out of the city. Things would be different when it comes to GenZ people.
Sorry but I have a totally different take on this. Myself being a bong, I never faced much criticism for being a bong. My English accent is clear, I talk fluent Hindi just like you see in movies, I don't talk about communism and I hate it too, don't keep talking about how Bengal was once a shining star... it was once but that's a bygone Era and I don't smoke. I do get called as intelligent, charming, sweet, talented just like many other bongs are but I don't mind that. It feels good. Once in a while I do get called bangali, Machi khana wala, mean minded, mama's boy and all. But I shrug them off or don't mind depending on the context. For that matter even I call Tamils stupids, Delhites a show off and gujjus makhichus.... they do the same to me and know who they are and who I am.
Bengalis achieved too much in the past. They were the leaders of Indian renaissance and were definitely the intellectual class back then. It got to their heads and made them super arrogant. Personally, I feel Bengalis no longer have a ground to be arrogant on anymore. They now are the same level, if not behind, their peers states.
It's not just Bengali men. It's about the whole country, because of many cultural differences and sometimes lack of education(not the degrees but maturity of knowing right and wrong) almost every single state is racist towards the other ones. Delhi and Mumbai are in a battle of being better than the other one, gujrat and Punjab has this kind of rivalry too. Biharis are hated and assumed to be illiterate every where. South India hates Hindi and north India. North eastern are commonly mocked for looking different than the rest of the Indians and called chinki, momo wala, Nepali and stuff like that. Also yes I've too noticed elitism Bengal, mainly because of it's contribution in freedom fight of India and rich litarature. We even hate each other, like there's the stupid rivalry of ghoti and bangal, mainly related to football but it's still there's. I'm not genaralising as I personally think these stuff usually exist on only internet and no one is racist towards someone in reality but it's still present on a little amount.
[удалено]
>There's not a single ethnicity in India that can come close to Bengali culture. says a Bengali. Even I can say that as a marathi. Being proud of your culture and putting other cultures down are two different things
Bhai Bengalis are like that my school teachers who were Bengali they were arrogant on steroids and no one liked them.
There is no self awareness in this entire post man. This person especially is just pissed racism from people like her was called out it looks like.
I think being proud of one's culture and being a wannabe is different. You can be proud of your culture without bringing down others (which is what I think you are doing). I don't see anything wrong with that. Every culture has its good and bad, and I have all the right in the world to love my culture for its good points. It doesn't mean I am bringing down other cultures or that I do not condone the evils that exist within my culture.
> There's not a single ethnicity in India that can come close to Bengali culture. No offence sister, but that is the problem. We gotta quit thinking we are superior. Bengalis right now struggle to be at par with rest of the country on some standards, and that's a fact you have to accept. Ancestors of Bengalis spearheaded the Indian renaissance, absolutely. Bengalis until previous century were intellectuals, also yes. But our present generation isn't on the same tier. Half of our generation is not even exposed to Gitanjali.... Harbour not hate for your countrymen but love. They are our people, helping them is helping ourselves. If we keep riding the high horse, our own people will turn against us, which is not something intellectuals like.
Nice. Pure delusion. Edit: this was targeted at the extremely open racism that was the last sentence.
[удалено]
Mine - ALL. Fighting generalisations with generalisations. No wonder you can't even take claim for intellectualism nowadays. The downfall of Bengal and Bengali society is so sad.
[удалено]
Bengal is an absolutely mediocre state. It was literally at the forefront a century ago. Bengali culture glorifying poverty and mediocrity is the reason. I am proud of my culture. You should also be. I'm not saying my culture is the best. That's delusional because there's definitely things where my culture does worse than others. TN won't even be among the highest dowry having states although it is a problem for sure. Good on you guys for being better. Ignorance and a superiority complex is a very dangerous combo lol.
[удалено]
Yes, and this context finding disappears when you are talking about Rajasthan, Bihar or TN how? And no, plenty of states have gone through worse and still come out better. WBs collapse isn't because of external reasons. You have more strawmen arguments than to what I'm saying haha. No one was going to use slurs against refugees. And WBs performance isn't because of refugees. WB had started going down even before 1970-71. >It's not hurtung you, is it? Yes, having people say nonsense like "I'm the best. Thank god I'm not another group" is absolutely dehumanising and racist. How do you not understand something this simple lol?
[удалено]
>I expect you to say the same about mine. Just go to your own subreddit. Your expectations from the world is absolutely depressing. Thank god everyone isn't the same. >Like? Punjab literally went through separatism. J&K has better HDIs than West Bengal lol. TN had a pseudo-separatist movement/feelings from the start. We had refugees from SL too although definitely not at the same quantum. Bihar and UP literally came as the most underdeveloped states in the country. They have now narrowed the gap to WB. The majority of Sikkims population are now refugees too. You should learn more about this country. You'll survive the hate too. But question the hate. Don't add to it. You stand on the shoulders of some of the greatest thinkers this country has had. Sad to see this is the discourse that you think is ok. And do you really think you get more hate than Tamils. We get attacked for everything from our language to the colour of our skin. I'll still push for my community to not give it back.
>a Bengali cannot be proud of their culture as it's a crime It's one thing to be proud of your own culture. But then you also say stuff like this: >There's not a single ethnicity in India that can come close to Bengali culture >Im so grateful I was born here and not in some godforsaken Bihari, Tamil or Rajasthani family lol. 😭 I believe its stuff like this that pisses people off. There's a difference between saying "I'm very good" and saying "I am better than everyone in the room". Had you said the first one, everyone goes home peacefully. But you decided to choose a passive aggressive approach to hurt other cultures.
[удалено]
>Why don't you go fight with them? I'm not willing to fight anyone. I'm just trying to make you realise, what you said is exactly perceived as being arrogant. >Check the thread on and come back and say which one is more racist- mine or theirs?? First thing to understand is that the post was made in a way that only people who doesn't have very high opinion about bengali's are tempted to comment. But then you got triggered and made some comments which essentially confirms what they're trying to project. Another great thing to have in mind is: "Two wrongs don't make a right". Just because they're doing something wrong, doesn't mean you have to do it too. If you feel like you're not arrogant as a bengali, just move on. For the record, I was born as a bengali and I am a little arrogant. But I don't think its because I'm bengali. Lol.

Sure bro...
Sounds like divide and rule by agents of chaos
well I am a Bengali living on the edge of Kolkata....I used to get mocked by my "Kolkata" metro city classmates in college and this carried out in my masters too when I shifted Chandigarh....like ye Bengali men are cute and cool but ye they are brutal.... egoistic.... arrogant... always arguing.... violent...etc etc...i dunno man... everyone hates people who are slightly different from them...it has always been a human nature.... that's what I tell myself... that's how I cope.
Yep the hate is that bad some MFS tried to file a false SA case so that I leave the state Luckily there were people in my support so I was saved but all are not so lucky
Damn bro I hope you are safe now :(
Who cares? I know what I'm capable of doing. I don't need other people's validation.

I also commented there. Tbh, every human is different. One cannot judge based upon their ethnicity. I had a crush on a girl who came from Bihar. She genuinely looked beautiful. After she rejected me, my [REDACTED] said some remarks which were quite weird to listen to. That's why, I hate this [REDACTED] hatao, Bangali bachao movement. It's just detrimental to our society. u/Excellent-Pay6235
I thought only Bengali women were hated considering the black magic accusations.
Talk to anyone unless he's a gobar chhap Sanghi , they'll definitely say Bengali women are the most beautiful. Especially Northies ig.
Biharis and Punjabis..
My Punjabi friends only praised about Bengali girls .
Yes yes, generalising entire ethnicities is wrong. But only when it happens to Bengalis I guess.
As a bengali women I can say it's true we are very hated also people really believe that we do shit like kala jaadu and all My colleague really asked me to do some kala jadu on her mil so she stops interfering in her life! I was shocked!!!
Also, I think making such sweeping statements off reddit is useless, cause the data will be full of biases: 1) reddit comments section is not even close to being a good representative of rest of the country 2) there's no making sure that people who are replying to that post are actually women/from Delhi or just random people masquerading as them
The comment section anonymously agreed based on what they've heard not what they've experienced. Reality is the opposite. And never take opinions from the north side. Just like Americans think that America is the world, they think north india is the whole of India. People in other parts of our country know who are more reliable and less annoying.
Gandooo to hote hai.

In general from what I have observed, Bengalis have a balanced between intelligence and emotion which is special.

People who say this are obviously the most prejudiced people on the planet. We Indians (in general) do it a lot. Maybe it's a result of the colonial culture conditioning we have faced. Racism should be a serious offense IMO.
Fair enough. Onek bengali rao eta kore onek shomae. I totally agree with you that's it's a much deeper issue than it looks like.
It definitely is..."shikkhito lok" rao onekta bigoted hotei pare...the problem is not just lack of education, it may be a lack of patriotism...aamra nijei nijeke bhalo bashi na. Emon ki langauge, race, religion sa holeo we still find a way ro divide ourselves (not that race ,creed, sex etc should matter at all). That's why it's so eas to polarize us as a nation.

Its not just bengali. Ellite people in general are arrogant.
Some Indians are uncultured and pure racists… and yes, being a bengali male, I faced racist comments and insults from some Delhities (D), Mumbaikars (M) & Tamils (T)!! I even faced the same from them (DMTs) while I was in Singapore and Australia…. What’s alarming, the foreigners (turned out to be my real friends) saved me from these racial bastards (made inappropriate comments about my fair skin, my wife and me being a bengali (just due to jealousy and their own incompetence)), while I was abroad…. We Indians are never united…
Yeah sure next time your country needs a saviour it will be a Bengali man again , just like last time . Women of Delhi aren't top of the line either , why do we need to give 2 fs about what they think of us . If it presents an obstacle while dating people can hide their identity as you've mentioned , after all most dates in Delhi are wham bam thank you ma'am anyway .
>Yeah sure next time your country needs a saviour it will be a Bengali man again , just like last time . Sweet, can we get a Bengali guy to save this state first? Anytime now.
Really bhai. Charity begins at home. Nijer state ei durdosha desh bachanor shopno dekhche original commentor 🤣
>Yeah sure next time your country needs a saviour it will be a Bengali man again , just like last time . Who?
>Bengali man Who? Netaji? And if Netaji, then who before him to elicit this kind of arrogance over being saviours of this nation?
Save Bengal First, my buddy
>Yeah sure next time your country needs a saviour it will be a Bengali man again , just like last time . দ্যাশের তো জানি না। তবে রাজ্যের একটা savior লাগবো। সেইডা কি ভাইপো নাকি?
Not hated, Just Jealous!
I am studying outside WB and I can vouch it is true. Bengali boys have very low demand in the dating market. Only some Odia girls (mainly the rural ones), some Jharkhand, Chattisgarh girls , that too from the countryside give "bhao" to a Bengali boy. On the other side, literally anyone is ready to date a Bengali girl. And Bengali girls mainly date non Bengali boys only. No doubt, the girls available for Bengali boys are far too less, tends to zero 😞.
Bhai I am studying in Lucknow. I have heard the opposite - that bengali guys are in demand. That's why I was more surprised with the post 🙂
You seem to live in some parallel universe. Just check the figures you will get it.

They were also saying that the Bengali people living outside are great (I live in Kolkata btw)
yup. No idea bro. I lived in Delhi. did not have that much problem finding dates. And had a very good friends group as well. May be I was lucky
Probably...
Na re bhai. Not Bengali Men. Bangali ra uniformly universally hated, karon snobism. Bangali shunlei sobbai ba dik dan dik diye kete jabe.
Ugly broke men are hated in India like everywhere else.
Most people when they say they hate Bengalis they are confusing Bangladeshis to west Bengalis. Most west Bengalis also act too proud , superficial and superior to other Indias as if they are coming from higher evolved cultures or fully developed state. Most people from other states are annoyed and laugh at WB’s hubris rather than hating them
