Are Indians Racist?

Indians were ready to claim they were suffering racism, but rarely introspected as to whether they themselves were racist. She then backed this up with various points such as:

• Most people would not be comfortable introducing a foreigner as a boy or girlfriend to their parents.
• Being white is bad enough but if he/she was black it would be even worse
• In India foreigners have to pay higher ticket prices to enter certain monuments
• The media constantly propagates the concept of white women as easy and loose.
This is a subject that rarely, if never gets discussed in the media.
In fact, on the contrary, there is a belief that white people get advantages and are treated well. It may be true they can get into a club badly dressed that some Indians, who have washed their hair and are not in sandals, may not be able to get into, and in some situations, some of them face some advantages. But often they don’t. And what is the advantage of getting into the nightclub if say not a single Indian girl would take the white man to meet her parents?
Or what is the point of being in that club, as a white female, if most Indian man inside automatically assumes you are loose?
I went to the Taj Mahal Palace in Agra last year. While the Indian rate was close to zero, foreigners had to pay a staggering amount to enter. There were two clerks at separate booths selling the tickets - one for Indians and one for foreigners. There were literally thousands of foreigners waiting to get in, while, needless to say, the queue outside the Indian booth was empty. But that man would not sell the foreigner any tickets. The heat and length of time we all had to wait (in my case three hours) led to many rows between foreigners in the queue, with various groups accusing the others of queue jumping.
The problem with this differential in price is that, while it may have been relevant years ago, now it is not. Many Indians earn far more than their ‘white’ counterparts. Many westerners coming to India don’t have much money at all.
The media here too does constantly propagate the myth that western women are loose.
In virtually every Bollywood film I have seen a white woman is portrayed as a stripper, semi naked dance, etc and never in a serious role and never a ’sought after woman’ or the woman the hero wants to be with…
As for the view of black people, the fact that sleeping with a black man in Fashion was deemed the worse possible crime is indicative of the mass view of black people. Yet the black people I have come across in India are some of the most civilized people you could meet - many come from well-to-do professional families in their home continent.
Now to be fair there are some white people that do propagate these myths - that wander around in dresses up to their knicker lines, caked in make-up, or backpackers who behave in inappropriate fashions. I have met white women in India, where even I am embarrassed at how they are dressed.
However I have to say that these types of women do in no way reflect western women or global women and in fact they are often the dregs of their own societies. Every society has such people, even India.
Unfortunately India has always attracted such types, when it comes to the backpacker’s scene.
