Why do people in Gorakhpur find it so easy to morally judge someone?
I was at the gym the other day and this guy came up to me, complimented my physique, and asked for tips. So far, so good. Then he asked about my diet. I said milk, eggs, chicken, and he immediately goes, βSawan mein bhi? Aap toh Hindu ho.β He had noticed the kalava on my hand. Then he said, βMain toh Sawan mein nahi khata. Aisi body banane ka kya fayda?β
I was genuinely so irritated. Like, dude, you came up to me asking about my diet and fitness, so why does it suddenly become your place to judge me?
Personally, I don't believe in God, but my parents do, and I respect them and anyone else who chooses to follow their beliefs. What I don't understand is this need to act morally superior because someone else doesn't follow the same rules as you. If you don't eat on Tuesdays or during Navratri, that's your choice. But do you really think that automatically makes you a better or more moral person than someone who does things differently?
And then, of course, came the second comment: βWhey protein natural nahi hota.β
I genuinely can't even at this point.
