No one talks like this in real life. Discrimination is much more subtle. If you expect these simulated situations to reflect real life situations you are way off the mark. People cannot react so plainly because no one talks or behaves so obviously even if they understand the discrimination. These WWYDs are just Feel Goods to comfort and entertain ourselves.

I have a comment to make for this video. Racism exists in India much more than any other country. Both in working atmosphere and marriage scenario all the more. Let me tell you the worst affected is the dark male. Because guys are genetically darker than women in general. Lot of guys sitting on top hire fair looking females and guys for job posts irrespective of whether that girl/guy is skilled or not. More so its the fair girl who has all the advantage from the bosses since the older guys on top need some estrogen to keep them going. And those old guys give all this gyan about male-female equality etc while hiring when actually you are insulting a woman or man by not recognizing his/her talent.

[@asnfhtmlzxsje274]

Its a little off !..you are beautiful and showing hair and being modern looks goods to you especially you are the main face in office. - I was hurt by this comment.

First of all, this is a copy of an American reality show called What would you do! Second, most of the comments here are from South Indians who have inferiority complex because of their skin colour and some of them think that North Indians better looking because they have fair skin which is a bullshit. Third, not everyone in North India is fair. There are equal number of people with dark skin. Fourth, Indians are colour conscious not racist. Fairer the skin, beautiful the person is. And we all are like this. Even a dark skinned guy, be a North Indian or South Indian, wants to marry a girl with fair complexion. Hundreds of South Indians in US are getting married to white girls. But they don't marry black American girls simply because of their dark skin. So, let's not be hypocrite.
