Actually these days its tough to be middle eastern. Ive had many conevrsations make a 180 degrees shift to the worst once they find out my origin.
Its different than for example being black, where you find racism but also you have a lot of cool stereotypes about you that make you sexually and socially wanted by some girls.
There litterally 0 positive connotation to being middle eastern and 100 bad ones.
You can still overcome this of course, ecerywhere and anywhere, but its a handicap that should be acknowledged but not obsessed about
Agreed. And I also agree that it's not something to be obsessed about but something to bear in mind. Therefore it's much more important for us to have our shit together.
