Many foreigners make fun of India by saying India is dirty and Indians are unhygienic. Are we really that bad?

So Indians are as hygienic as anyone else

No Indian who can afford a bathroom with running water , would do without a bath.

The problem is not about personal hygiene but about poverty and mismanagement

Why would a spouse cheat if the marriage is good?

You need more films like RRR

Indians even brush their teeth with a stick if they can't afford toothpaste

The Bath is very important in India

I committed the unpardonable sin. God immediately punished me so that I can no longer think like before and my brain is as if paralyzed and does not work. I've tried everything (confession, repentance, etc.) nothing helps. Any advice?

A homeless poor Indian is as clean as a homeless poor American, except that the Indian is likely to not be a heroin addict and mugger

India is dirty because it is overcrowded

India is dirty because poor people are forced to poop in the streets and not wash because access to potable water is another major bummer

Why are men obsessed with breasts and their size? I don't quite see women being obsessed with the penis - Why is this so?

You need to get Ramayana global to Europe and the States

India is dirty because Cities are overcrowded with poor people

Not unless they live in very cold places where a bath could be bad , healthwise.

You need Mahabharat to go Global to Europe and the States

What are some photos of female sexual organs?

Indians consider water to purify many things and cleanliness is part of an Indians psyche

And you seriously need to get out of the media bubble and see India for the shit show it is becoming and causing embarrassment for all Indians

For those who were actually old enough to have experienced the 1970s and not for those who were born in the 70s. What were the pros and cons of that era?

Indians are as hygienic as other foreigners of the same economic class in other countries

If India can work out its corruption and poverty and the VIP culture

A middle class Indian is as clean as a middle class American

'The Alters' is a genre-blending sci-fi survival ordeal about the horrors of being a project manager - Space

You allow Corruption to fester and make life unbearable for poor people and force them to migrate by the Dunki route and the poorest people become the face of India when just fifteen years ago, it was all about the migrants in silicon valley

This pisses me off

You allowed Slumdog millionaire to be screened and that movie is responsible for a lot of the “India is dirty” jibe

Foreigners make fun of India because you guys allow them to make fun of India

It's just that India has too many poor people and too much corruption

‘Godfather’ of AI Yoshua Bengio says latest models lie to users - Financial Times

Make fun of India the country, and that's one thing

India is dirty because poor people who dont have a home are forced to sleep on the streets amidst the thrash with rats running all over them

This is just normal racism coupled with India's own relentless mismanagement of poverty, corruption and lack of proper enforcement of laws

What were the career paths of each member of "The Monkees" after the band disbanded? Did any of them have successful music careers?

India neither has Anime nor plays world class soccer but Indian actors have sufficient exposure and look beautiful enough to make a splash in all those events

Seriously, can't you guys fight against the Corruption everywhere and see that poverty is mitigated and cities are kept less crowded and clean

That's on you guys

Why am I so unproductive when it's a holiday the next day?

Making fun of Indians and making personal remarks at a group of people and generalizing them is wrong at so many levels especially when it comes to hygeine

It is deep rooted in religion

India has so many chances to sell soft power and culture and change the image of India
