Like me many would have faced such questions some or the other time, this needs to stop right away. It was out of the blue when few asked me “Cherry, Do you wear Party wear?”
Me: “When you say Party wear, The definition differs from person to person. And as per my definition, I wear what I am comfortable with!”
Question: “So What’s your definition?”
ME: “Anything that doesn’t make me feel uncomfortable or even makes me feel cold at any point in time!”
Question: “So you plan to go to a party fully packed?”
Me: “What do you mean by fully packed? I suppose you are not asking me if I wear revealing clothes to party!”
Reply: “What exactly I meant was do you wear shorts and stuff like that!”
This is when I want to hit on every person’s head who asks such questions, Seriously! I do not have to actually wear a short revealing or any uncomfortable dress to a place, yes! I wear Chudi to a Pub, but whats the problem there? Party just means a Social gathering to meet people and have some entertainment and have a small celebration, so be it why one has got to wear a particular kind of attire to meet up people?
Western wear does not only mean a short dress, but there are also jeans and decent top too. And I don’t understand why one bothers what someone wears? If you are unhappy taking them along in whatever they wear they buzz off- and throw such people out of your life!
Stop judging people on what they wear to a party, I would proudly wear a Saree to a Pub, and I give a damn if anyone feels I am odd, I am not sorry for carrying my Indian attire with pride. Rest is your quiet views.
