    her topic is India but u fuck me for vocab. her topic is mentality of indian, but u fuck me for not mentioning other relegion. See this is our mentality.We need to change it else. New israle will in Indian Sub continent

  • yes my vocab is bad, i need to improve.

    my aim is : (relegious book)/ prone movies

    relegious book means what ever relegion one belons too.

    We Indian are aducated labours in most od the part of the work even we have 17% world population. why

    be we people never miss a chance to fuck our own people without understanding his voice.

  • First and foremost thing you need to do buddy is to improve your vocabulary .Meaning of being an Indian is not only related to the reading of Hindu literature.. Unlike some deep shit ideology which i presume you belong to India is not only the birthplace of Hinduism but also of Buddhism,Jainism and also of Sikhism.Now i cant find a land more diverse and open which has given birth to so many religions .
