I do agree with you….

And in response to one of the answers above, just because something has always been done a certain way, it doesnt make it right.

Some may disagree with what i am about to write, but often the pompous attitudes of the Bramhins is akin to that of white supremecists in the states.

I am a brahmin, raised all my life and i agree at times that “We” do think ourselves higher, but it goes from back in the days and it just bulit that way…sometimes iyers are ignorants..but it’s how people view them, a lot of hindu’s give them the upper hand..but there also in the higher caste then hindu’s… i don’t know maybe you just bad experience time with some iyers man..your looking too much into it but it’s how people regard us..not all of us are the same..don’t judge!

That is the stupidest thing I ever heard in my life. Do they bath in the s hit water also. Sounds very special.

The answer is fairly obvious. Brahmins are at the top of the caste system, and therefore are seen as better than the rest by being on top. If you were told that you were on top and better than everyone else, wouldn’t you think you were pretty great too??

By the way, one of my close friends is from a Brahmin family, and it doesn’t affect the way she looks at anyone.
