It’s nice to see working girls taking an interest in social issues.

“kind of blue eyed” … is that like “kind of pregnant”?

I’d say it depends on what you do. If you’re a hairstylist who isn’t familiar with different hair textures, I’d say it’s weird but not racist. But for most things, yeah, it is.

Hey, I’m kind of blue-eyed. I’ve had people - ones who are looking right at me - ask me what color my eyes are because they’re a strange grayish blue-green. I go with blue simply because my parents both have blue eyes so technically I do too.

And yes, OP, being blue-eyed means you are a racist. Sorry, it’s just the way it is.

{Monotone} Yes, you are a racist. ‘White’ people cause most of the problems. What is the root of your inferiority complex?
