    Hard Talk How Many Sikhs Have Married Out Of Caste/race?

    But the question here isn't about religion it is about caste? Do you think that marrying out of caste is ok or does that tie in with what you said about tradition?

    Hard Talk How Many Sikhs Have Married Out Of Caste/race?

    So when Ameet ji said she was jatt and her husband Saini, it wasn't her regarding caste as something important more that she was trying to explain the situation so we could understand...I think that's how she meant it anyway! I know that's how I meant it!

    Re: How many sikhs have married out of Caste/Race Ok hold up-generally when I meet people I don't ask them their caste because it doesn't matter to me. Would you rather i married a wife beating alcoholic gambling ramgaria or a decent guy whose jatt? Me and my partner were friends and...
