I am a british born, american raised man of pakistani decent. I just came back here in UK (place of birth) and

dont understand why older asian men, and some younger and women wearing asian clothes. In America (specifically Florida where I live) most asians wear western clothes I hardly see a black man wearing a african clothes. Why are asians so intent on wearing this all the time? Once in a while is okay but whats wrong with English clothes.Especially men who wear shalwar. they look very very lazy and look unemployed. Second question- Why are asians' friends predomanantly asian? In america, probably 70% of my friends are white 20% are black and latino and the other 10% are mainly asian. I feel like a white man in America, ive lived there for 20 years and not a sinngle racist comment. Quite the contrary in the neighborhood I moved into I had people coming to my door with gift baskets and people inviting me to dinner Here within six months i heard the word paki and all the time I see anti-immigration rhetoric. I dont completely blame white people but non-integration of asians
--------------------
I live in Wigan, which has very few non-white residents, and work in Bolton, which has a high number of Asians, and Blackburn, which also has a large Asian community. Blackburn is essentially 2 towns. A white enclave and an Asian enclave with virtually no interaction between the two. Bolton is not quite so bad. A good friend there (white) is married to an Indian muslim, and the street is mixed, and lots of people get into mixed relaitonships. The word "paki" is one of my pet hates. There is a lot of ignorance in Britain. Worryingly too many people look upon skin colour as a mark of being an immigrant, which of course is not true. They also seem to think ALL people who have come into the country have done so illegally, which is also not true.
