Foreigners' opinions on Indians

Recently I went through a post on Reddit where a woman(Indian) had asked for opinions of how people of the sub(the sub is dominated by westerners) perceived Indians.

Apparently the common answer from women for Indian men was: they are unhygienic, stink a lot, super desperate and were the majority of the population in blind dating scenarios. So essentially non-datable.

The common answer from men for Indian Woman was: overly ambitious, obnoxious, highly opinionated to the extent any deviations from their thought process was not perceived well by them. Not non-datable but not preferred either.

Of course, the answers will be highly skewed considering a very limited audience but just the commonality in a lot of comments caught my attention.

People who have been abroad or have regularly interacted with a lot of foreigners, has this been the experience?

I mean from the womens' POV I do get it, men are usually not bothered with basic grooming. But hoped that foreign going people from well-to-do families were a bit better.

As an Indian man who has lived in the west and dated many western women, such online threads are bullshit. They are just full of trolls spouting extremist and racist stereotypes.

In the real world, most people are smarter than to believe these stupid stereotypes, and in western countries, a lot of western women do date and marry Indian men, and a lot of western men do date and marry Indian men, including many of my personal Indian friends of both genders who have married westerners.

Don't believe such dumb and racist online forums that are full of incels spouting dumb opinions, and who have probably never dated anyone in real life. 😂

Cannot get the exact link to the post, but it was on r/AskMen, 2-4 weeks old post.

Brutal - but he’s not lying, India sucks for travellers

Overpriced hotels, just straight up bad infra - honestly a vacation to Vietnam/Thailand is not very expensive compared to a good vacation to Goa now
