That's why I think
sometimes, It just makes sense.
I know for example some hot spa centres in Hokkaido (Onsen) refuse
foreigners.
This is actually meaning Russians, although because of the terrible experiences by the owner of these places, it tends to reflect on white skinned caucasians.
I would probably do the same if I owned a Spa centre in the town
Another example is I was once seriously thinking of opening a guest house type backpackers in Cairns, although making it a Japanese only place, simply because I know Japanese, well at least many, to be very clean, accurate and honest people, where as young British and American 20's, run a bloody riot!
So I am discriminating here, although does this make it
right?
Then how about the Palestinian people. Nobody wants them. It's only Israel that has support centres, hospitals, schools, work, and also accommodation for them.
You have countries like Jordan, Egypt, Iran, they are not interested at all.
Look at Burma, North Korea.
To be discriminated in these countires means hard labour, torture and quite possibly death!
The Taliban discriminate against everyone and the harder cases means being beheaded!
TainSG:I can hear you, and it definiely affects both cultures in your case both white and dark skinned.
