My good friend who is Persian, recently got married. I asked her if she had a bachleorette pary, she said "not really, some of my Persian friends took me out to Lucky Cheung's". I am insulted we went for a drinks and dinner for mine. I only had about 5 girls there. I can't believe she did not even ask. What difference does it make that the girls who took her out were Persian? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

Listen whether they are Iranian, Persian or Afghani, the real point here is that they are all furballs. [ Reply | More

they refer to themselves as persians because they are dodgy about where they are from (expecting a bad reaction to iranian, for example). like self-hating jews. [ Reply | More

What are you talking about? Jews dont have a nonsensical code name for themselves. They call themselves Persian because they are ashamed to be from Iran, etc. [ Reply | More

She probably has separate groups of friends - persians and everyone else. She didn't mean to insult you or "send a message" in any way. [ Reply | More

if her friends arranged it, she may not have had a say in it. Also, sometimes it's very hard to include a non-native person into a party where everyone is from the same country. They want to laugh and make jokes in their mother tongue. [ Reply | More

Its still rude I think, especially if you have been friends for a long time. I think this kind of behavior is very prevalant in their society. [ Reply | More
