[quote=UP2U,243837]I live in Thailand and here there is a strange attitude towards black skin , not black people but the actual color of the skin , here no matter how hot or how hard the work all Thai's who work outside in farming or constrution and so on will cover themselves from head to toe including the face , just a slit for the eyes, this is because they do not want the skin to get any darker, the darker the skin the more menial the job they do, as a bank clerk is not exposed to the sun but a guy who digs ditches is he is lower class, so when 'black' skinned tourists like say the president of a US bank comes to town if he has black skin he is low class no matter how much money he has, here its not predudice as we know it, its old tradition that will not go away[/quote]
