8. "No, he is not following you. He lives here too."

I am a brown man, of east Indian origin. I have a Goatie and I live in an area where there are lot of Hispanics. The reason why I talk about my Goatie is that I get weird looks by white women, not that there is anything wrong with or anything, or some might say...oh come on, that's just in your head, that not what what they are thinking, cut it out. I have noticed one thing...regardless of where you are in this country, it seems like most white women start turning around if you are a brown man behind them, either at a store or in the park or on the street where other people are also walking. I think a white woman wont care if a white guy was walking behind them at a store following them or just anywhere in public, be it day time or night, but when a brown man is behind them, they start getting nervous and turn their heads or pause. It's a racial thing and have noticed that. When you out of nowhere end up behind them, and I am just walking to the direction they are walking and minding my business and there they go, start turning around. I have not noticed that around black women or brown women...they don't feel threatened by someone of similar skin tone, maybe some depending on their experiences, but white women, regardless of their experiences, are still prejudiced and its in their blood...no matter how much they try not to be racist, but deep inside their guts, they have a sense of prejudice, stereotype, whatever you wanna call it...its there..they cannot deny it. Its in their blood and if any white woman comes up here and denies what I am saying, she is in denial of the truth, just to prove something by defending themselves. I mean I don't really care if any of them get upset and have a reason to get back at me, but the truth is hidden way beyond sight. What proof do they really have that they are not prejudiced, except accuse me of being racist against them. Well listen, white women. I have no problem with you, but you have shown enough prejudice to a brown man, but what is in your veins is something that can never be removed except, be conditioned on the outer surface. You are what you are. A race of people that was born with prejudice, lives through it all their lives, shits through it and dies with it too.
