Can it, Susan

By unsuccessful popping - 18/06/2015 20:09 - United States - Tappan

Today, a woman bitched me out at the grocery store, saying that since I'm not Indian, I shouldn't be wearing a bindi - a red dot on my forehead - because it's "cultural appropriation". I was too embarrassed to tell her it was actually a pimple I'd been trying to pop on my forehead. FML

Even if it was a bindi- who's she to assume you don't identify with that culture based on your looks alone? There's a thousand possible extenuating circumstances that could have given you justification to wear a bindi.

Don't try to pop it, despite how embarrassing it may be. Wait until there's white on it and then try. If you don't, the pimple will just get worse. I know the struggle, OP. Good luck!

The woman is stupid anyway it's not cultural, it's religious. The Bindi is a representation of the third eye and wisdom.

Not necessarily. It's also a way showing the woman is married.

OP, you shouldn't be embarrassed. You should've bitched her out for assuming that you were wearing a bindi

How could anyone think you deserve this? Do they expect you to never go out in public when you have a zit?

Perhaps try utilizing baby power on your pimple? It is rather effective on most other skin issues. i.e. rashes, sores, bug bites
