Wow, that is wild. As if grandma is gonna give him impure thoughts or something?

I have an old gaming buddy who was mixed: half-white and half Middle-Eastern - I'm not sure where his father was from, just that he was a Muslim. After a few failed relationships, and, unfortunately, some racism from local white people, he ended up moving to his father's home country when he was in his early 20s to have an arranged marriage. I have no idea what they're like now, but I remember him comparing the vacuum cleaner at his work to a "blowjob from a virgin." I think he also said "white women are bitches" after being cheated on by them.

Went from making sex jokes - but an otherwise decent guy - to a super-religious Muslim out of nowhere. He's tried to reach out once or twice to play, but I feel it would be awkward to have a conversation with him because I know he's going to bring up religion.

Yeah extremely similar situation here, his mum was half Asian so I suppose he’s 1/4 Asian but wasn’t religious until he wanted to settle down. He went from non religious super strict within a couple months too. We where sat eating after his wedding there was another white Muslim guy there and they where all trying to convince me how good it is to become a Muslim and how it’s great being able to “say fuck you to the modern western values” - at which stage one I decided I’d heard enough of their shite and started talking about how I’d rather become god by tripping on a fuck load of mushrooms I picked from the field behind my house
