Not too long ago the society I grew up in was mixed in culture, various faces from various places, religions, and backgrounds. When you go to the playground a politicians son, the poorest around, the richest dwellers son and the general boys and girls will play football and cricket. We learned to praise beauty. Especially if its another mans wife. Nothing perverse about it. It was just how it was. No one thinks of it as perverse or offensive but people love it. Or rather "used to".
Now, it seems like if you even praise that individual for a simple achievement or a big achievement they wonder "is this guy mocking me"? Imagine how it is when you praise another mans wife for her beauty. His hair stands, starts to sweat, and if he fears your fighting skills he goes home and fights with his wife.
We used to read a lot of history. Global history. History was part of growing up and everyone is aware. If there was a Hindu invasion in some area it was never a question of Hinduism. It was a geographical designation given to the invader. Same with the British, Portuguese or Dutch. Religious prototyping was never there.
Why??
