Woman in manchester with 3 year old girl today - my son (2) (who is mixed race) waves at little girl...I say the usual "that´s nice to say hello to the little girl - what´s your name" to the mother - who tells me her little girls name and asks my son´s name....
I tell her she then say "Look (little girl´s name) K´s got crazy hair like RaRa the Noisy Lion!".
I resist deep urge to knock her fucking teeth out. WHY do people think this is ok!?!
its the equivalent of me saying "look K....the little girl has pale pink skin - just like Peppa Pig!" - (which would obviously be totally rude and inappropriate)
its the same thing....LOOK ! THAT KID HAS A DIFFERENT PHYSICAL FEATURE TO YOU!! FOCUS ON THAT!! ugh.
Or maybe I´m being over sensitive? huh.
