Why aren't Indian women, food and culture as popular amongst White Westerners as Oriental ones are?

I know one can easily argue this notion with me, especially since India almost seems like a milestone for young White backpackers, but I still don't see White people obsessing over it the way they do about Oriental cultures. A few go for the architecture and to study Hinduism, but for the women, almost never!

No one finds it awkward if a White guy dates and Oriental, eats Oriental food, practices Buddhism or watches Anime, but if you tell them you're into Indian stuff, like curry, enjoy visiting Sikh and Hindu temples and watching Bollywood films, they look at you like you're from another planet. I don't even tell people in real life that I'm into Indian stuff, because they don't get it and have no clue what I'm talking about.

Why isn't Indian stuff as mainstream amongst White Westerners, and what can be done to change this?

It is because of racism. By the way, many British people like curry so much that it's their national dish. It is the Americans who don't like Indians that much. They are obsessed with oriental culture and girls to an extent that it looks creepy.
Many British guys are also interested in Indian girls more than American guys and I'm talking about really brown-skinned Indian girls. Other Europeans also like Indians. I have talked to many of them and they don't hate Indians like the Americans do.
Sure there are racists in Europe as well but it's mostly the older generation. On the other hand in America it's literally everyone.

Also, Indian women don't easily have sex with anyone unlike the oriental girls so even if they visited India for sex, it would be useless.

I was thinking the same thing, that a big reason they aren't to them, is because they can't get laid with them.
And I agree with you, that a lot White men are obsessed with Oriental women to the point that it's creepy as fuck.
I believe that Englishmen might like Indian girls/culture more because they are more exposed to it as there aren't that many Orientals in the UK.
But Orientals are extremely overrated in my opinion. Indian girls are way better!

From my experience: It is the difference between the love of people over the love of money. Now, much of my work includes Asia and many of my clients are “Families”. —The Indians and Chinese reason for living is Money. It drives the Caste System and everything else. Indians will screw you for 35.00. And their Family hierarchy and design is close to Muslim. If a culture believes in Negotiating the husband and Wife without participants approval, in a cash-loving people, Your Marriage is not your Own.

SE Asia is a bit different and more regular USA who work like a dog, tight, and achievers. Not so dead inside like most of Chinese and Indian 🇮🇳

I don't know either.

Indian women are beautiful on average, India has a collection of interesting cultures, Indian people are generally friendly, the country has a world of possibilities for people who can invest money.

Indian food is good, but meat consumption is small in Indian cuisine.

Indians don't wash their hands which is why Indian cuisine is avoided.

I like how you call them “Orientals.”

😂

🤣

Because everyone outside of America says "Asians" to describe people from the entire continent, and I got tired of writing East/SE Asian
