It could be pretty amazing to see how defensive certain people become when you accuse them of discriminating, even if you are right. Some of them would say or do whatever necessary to prove that you are wrong, even if they know in their heart of hearts that they've been caught with their pants down. People let's face it, we all actually do discriminate in one form or the other and that's alright with no need to apologize or even feel shameful about it.

I was recently introduced to a single mother whose child has a learning disability and the mother asked if I could assist this child and I said yes and so I started a two days per week tutoring with this child and this child is fast improving, I'm must say. The mother on the other hand has developed a special interest in me and as much as I would like to tell her that I would like to keep things platonic, I cannot muster the courage. Every time I drop by her house to tutor her son, she would sit quietly on the couch whilst observing and showering me with compliments like how white my teeth is, how pleasant my smile and things of that nature, she would even ask me to stay a bit longer after tutoring her son so that she could prepare me my favourite food.

See people, there is this side which says, why don't you just have sex with her and then leave, which if I do might break her heart and shatter her illusion of love, and then there is this other side which says that if you don't she might blame herself for no being pretty enough, now people I must confess that she is a very beautiful woman, but the problem is that she is not my type and I think that the hardest thing you could ever say to woman who is attracted to you is that, you're not attracted to her.

The other day I went to the groceries with one of my lady friends who happens to be Caucasian and to my very surprise saw her at the same supermarket, we did exchange greetings, spoke a few words to each other and I even introduced my Caucasian lady friend to her and we were off again, however when I went by her house to tutor her son, I sensed that her attitude towards me had changed. She inquired about the nature of my relationship with this Caucasian lady, which I thought was an intrusion of my privacy, however I said to her that she was one of my friends, but obviously not content with this answer, she started saying things like how Black men who date Caucasian women are sell outs and how Caucasian men are right for hating Black men who temper with their Caucasian women.

Damn, she even called me a hypocrite, asking me if I was still Black or not?

See, I have been told that Black women in general don't like to see Black men with Caucasian women, but I didn't know how deep that resentment went until that very moment when she went berserk. And as if that was not enough, she further went on to say that the reason why bi-racial children cannot tell their left from their right is because of black men like myself who adore White beauty so much to the very extent that we actually wind up marrying Whiteman women, thusly screwing up our bloodline.

I sat there quietly and watched her rattle on and that was when I knew how badly disappointed she must have felt, but then again.

Now people, I don't ever recall pledging this woman my undying love and neither do I recall making her a promise of anything or any kind and so why this emotional outbursts all of the sudden or is it because this lady whom she saw me with at the supermarket happens to be White and not Black?
