[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom does that and she truly is a super nice/non racist person. It's just how she tells stories. It does make me uncomfortable, though.[/quote] Ditto, both my mom and my MIL do it (both are white, as am I). As in, "I took Granddaughter to the park today and we saw an Asian lady and another lady and some birds." I don't think it's intended in any negative way, but I always wonder why they think it's relevant to the story. My gut feeling is that they don't see or don't expect to see someone of that description on a regular basis, so it stands out in their minds.[/quote]
