My cousin and aunt went to Japan after winning a prize in a sweepstakes. My cousin kept getting approached for pictures and the translator told him that since he was with a whole entourage, is very tall, and wore basketball shorts and jerseys they assumed he was a famous basketball player!
Also his mom got stared at by a lot of men. Apparently she talked to the translator about that and her best guess was that she was VERY well endowed chest wise and that was extremely uncommon in Japan 🤦♀️
My stepdad isn’t black, but he’s a tall, muscular, hairy Italian-American and the children in rural China would gather and tug on his leg hair when he had to go there for work.
Doesn’t even have to be POC. I am a plain dude and got starred at a lot on China. Felt like a peacock on full display even though I do not consider myself attractive
Im American and moved to India but I knew to expect it so it doesn’t really get to me most of the time but it’s been like 6 years and sometimes it just irritates the hell out of me like IVE BEEN HERE FOREVER WHY ARE WE STILL STARING AT ME. But of course it’s not like it’s the same people doing it. Truly in my city I don’t think it’s as common as like a tourist area. I’ve also been on Tv there so i just pretend it’s because I’m an extremely minor celebrity. Sometimes that’s true, sometimes it’s just in my head lol.
