21 Things I Learned From “My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding”
This is seriously the best show on TV right now. It centers around a number of Romanichal Gypsy families in America, and because it airs on The Learning Channel, I thought I’d share some of the things I learned from it.
9. A tattoo is a great way to accessorize a costume that you’ll only wear once.
11. The bleach industry was seriously affected by the recession.
12. Romanichal girls can’t kiss a boy until they’re married…
14. A lot of Romanichal girls run away to get married with boys they just met.
Cole (17) asked Hope (14) to run away with him after one night of a dancing and a few nights of serious texting.
15. Even if they don’t run off they usually get married before they turn 18.
17. Romanichal parties are crazy!
This party had to be held in a house because none of the venues in town would agree to host a Romanichal party. There is also no formal invite or RSVP system, Romanichals just show up.

capt.jakov 11 months agoI knew an american version of this show would spawn endless inaccurate references to “jersey culture”. Tacky peacocking and wrong priorites arent specific to just one group of people.

KatieP11 11 months agoIt’s fascinating to watch these parents basically pimp out their daughters to any boy that will have her. The one episode I watched, it was Priscilla’s parents’ party and they encouraged their FOURTEEN year old daughter to wear glittery heart-covered hot pants and a bra so she would attract a potential husband…My brain exploded at that point, so I could no longer watch.

gingersaurusRex 11 months agoi’m obsessed. the british show was excellent as well. if i ever pursue my phd, i’m going to live among them for a year and write a dissertation on their lifestyles and nomadic ways. its sad how much discrimination they face, they seem like (for the most part) good people. crazy, but good hearts.
