Growing up in a multi-cultural city and having friends of various backgrounds, from my observations, the clashes that arise between cultures is more on mindsets involved not the culture itself. This is when everyone confuses religion with culture. (religions aren't supposed to segregate)
Many times, friends complain/tell me "Oh, this will never happen, or it will never work, or they will never understand because it's not following 'our ways' " etc
*Should cultures be comprised of 'a fixed mindset' aka 'ways? Because currently, there's an identity struggle with many cultured youth
So what is it that is making cultures clash? Isn't it more of collective biases/mindset?
Sometimes I wish that cultures are comprise of only
1. Food 2. Clothing 3. Dance/Music 4. Design 5. Minor rituals (eg: facing your couch northwards :D) Then I can see a more accepting 'flavourful' world.
What do you think?
