This question is aimed at Indians. I have had some unpleasant experiences which I am sure many others like me have felt. I am dark skinned, and I am proud of my skin, but fed up with the reaction of people around me.
1. I have faced lots of comments behind my back because of my colour behind my back, especially in college. Sometimes I am even teased directly.
2. In college, initially, hardly any girl would speak to me. When I started driving my car to college, girls&guys I had never even met before wanted to be friends. I was appalled by the shallowness of it all.
3. Come marriage and the first thing that people ask is details of colour, followed by money. This applies to both guys and girls. It is really sickening. Has the importance of character been diminshed?
The first two points really disgusted me and I am most not getting involved in any relationship because I just cannot believe that I would find someone who will respect me for what I am. Where is my country headed?
