Shabo 0 Posted January 24, 2003 Salaam Mavra I dont have first hand experience of this stereotypical attitude but I can only imagine why this is so. As u can appreciate Pathans have their own language which u could say is their mother tongue (madri zubaan) and in order for them to speak urdu they rely heavily on the pronounciation of their first language.... as they are used to this, it comes naturally. So when they do speak urdu it is with a heavy pashtho/hinko accent.. I know this is not the case with ALL pathans but it is with a majority so it is held against ALL by a minority who think they are far superior to any1 else. As with anything when ppl make fun of others it is for their enjoyment only and they do not care if it will hurt the other person as long as they get a buzz out of it. So dont worry about it too much.... Take care Sx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waqas 48 Posted January 27, 2003 I have a recent first hand experience with PATHANS and found that what the people thinks about them is true. But most of Pathans have good qualities too. WiseGuy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Najeeb 0 Posted January 27, 2003 Salam, Pathans are nice people, I have a lot of friends who are pathans and they are people of strict social and moral values. It is true that all communities have a rotten egg, but you cant blame the mass for it! Be it Pathans, Punjabis, Sindhis or Baluchies have love for all as fellow countrymen.
