當遇上端莊的白人女子穿上中國服式,皮膚幼黑的美女穿上雪白絲質婚紗,亞洲少女古銅色纖廋的身驅說著流利英語,荷里活名演員以地道日本語對答。我們以往的文化偏見,巳不合時宜。單憑外表,巳不能推算此人的國藉及文化背景。只可說他們懷著何處祖先的基因,活在現代遊牧民族式的生活,穿洲過省,越洋過海,經歷文化大融合的洗禮,只能以地球人冠稱,請不要強問黑與白,紅或藍的取向,實在難以奉告。
When you meet a gentle white lady wearing Chinese costumes, a black beauty wearing Indian pure-white silk wedding gown, a slim Chinese girl speaking in fluent English, a Hollywood superstar talking in fluent Japanese. Cultural bias and perception is never workable nowadays. You never know who they are, what are their backgrounds and political-inertia, just from their appearance. We do carry our ancestors' genes but sculptured by cultural mix as the by-product of colony, immigration, professional exchange program... Just don't ask the question of black or white, red or blue selection. Sorry no answer at all. We are only planetian. It's so true.
