Really? Then I guess my friend is wrong, but she very much the opposite, that people in pakistan and elsewhere in the middle east are racist against people with light and white skin, like me. As for my cousin, I won't meet him again unless I go to Pakistan, so I really can't talk to him about it. I'm not exactly sure how I can stall, but it's good if I try.
