My letter to the Editor

hello dears!

well,I just posted a letter to the editor of Outlook magazine...there is an article in the latest outlook that I bought today,on how africans and north east 'chinkies' feel humiliated and victims of racism,saying that Indians are themselves racist,why call the aussies racist then?

This was my reply,hope you have good laughs reading,I just wanted to share with you all...here goes...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reading 'Our True Colours' verily made me laugh out in pity..No one seems to understand that Indians are narrow-minded to the maximum,when it comes to anything under the sun.The foreigners and afro-Americans need not worry or lose heart,since Indians are biased about every single thing,not just skin colour.It is because everyone has an inferiority complex in this country,since everyone goes through a childhood where they learn that certain things are acceptable and received well in society,while others aren't.

For instance,just to mention the few popular ones,there are some people who will bother to talk to you after scanning you from top to toe,gauging how much gold is worn,what kind of silk- saree is worn.If their requirements and certain mental calculations are met,and visibly satisfied,they proceed to talk...but about what?Most probably about their children,their high level of educations,going to the best schools and colleges.what is the nature of the family to which the newly wed has gone? are they rich enough?!!

then comes the positive repulsion that people feel for those who are obese.I am obese,but due to a good height,it is all camouflaged and I look quite pretty and voluptuous...so,hoping and praying that no one will notice my 'tyres',I walk into this crappy shop by chance,and two north indian positively ****ty looking thin undernourished young guys are like 'moti size nahi milega..'then proceed to barely contain their smiles to each other.i certainly would have preferred if they said large size.mentally cursing them,feeling really bad,I buy something and leave..

anyone looking fat and walking on our roads, will have it.

then come the so-called 'chinkies'.believe me,I have never felt biased towards anyone in these ways...but here in my city,Mangalore,they face the same discrimination as anywhere else in India,basically because they don't look Indian.by Indian is meant,everything except north east..because they wear tight and revealing clothing,they are taken as prostitutes.I know that there are so many whores in Mangalore and all over India,who constantly sleep around,but their dark ways are concealed by beautiful and colourful salwars and dupattas..

I am not perfect either,and even though I know it is wrong,I cannot imagine or accept myself even a shade darker than I am.Right now,in my room,I have 1 sunscreen lotion,2 fairness-cum-sunscreen lotions,1 fairness cream for face only,2 fairness creams,and 1 fairness lotion!though I love people as they are,I wouldn't care even if limbs were missing or the face was disfigured,I could never accept myself being darker!I love my fair skin,to be honest,I feel proud and vain too..

Indian youngsters,girls and boys are so stupid,they are neither here nor there.They buy and wear Jeans,because they are slim and look good in it,but that's the only reason they know of.But from the way they walk,their body language,they are pucca conservative traditional indians.It is common for many to wear a bindi,bangles,pigtails ,oiled hair even!alongside the hottest tops and jeans!!ooooh...la..la...who are they kidding?not me.
