personturbanwearing

What ๐Ÿ‘ณ means

A person in a turban, a head wrap worn for faith, culture or daily life in many parts of the world. Sikhs wear one as an article of faith, and turbans are also traditional in parts of South Asia, the Middle East and North Africa.

People who wear a turban use it to represent themselves, their family or their community, for example in Vaisakhi greetings. It also appears in posts about turban-tying and cultural dress.

Using it as a costume or a stereotype reads as offensive.
