The word swastika itself is Sanskrit. It's widespread across the Indian subcontinent and other parts of South Asia. (I can't find anything anywhere about it being a Native American symbol on a reliable site, so I don't if that's true). The Nazis took if from India, because it's connected to Vedas, the oldest books from North India, where the ancient Indians called themselves the Aryans, which means noble. The Nazis hijacked a religious symbol and the identity of an ethnicity

The bottom ones actually make more sense to me. Apricot and raisin are colors, but also traditionally indulgent, expensive foods, and toast is also about warmth, so they're great names for makeup. But sand? Always blazing and are you ready confuse me

Honestly, you seem like a terrible friend. If you do love her, atleast respect her enough to be honest. Say that you want space, don't make a fool out of her this way.

@spookykink57 the "frocks and dresses" you're talking about were not sarees. Some of the looks were different styles of traditional dress called lehengas, and some of them were actual dresses, with Indian embroidery. Both of these are common in India, and not every traditional look is a saree. also, vogue is a high fashion magazine that showcases designers who add modern details to their clothes. The dresses Kim wore were typical of what Indian models wear in magazines. It's not disrespectful, since Indian designers chose to style her that way. Not every outfit from India is a saree.

Just curious, why is a gender-balanced cabinet bad, if the women are competent and accomplished?

Birds are dinosaurs, the only kind that remains. They're a subfamily of theropods.
