As I walked around one shop， two shop girls didn't take their eyes off me the whole time， talking quietly to each other in Chinese． I began to feel uncomfortable and asked my friend if we could leave．After we left the shop， she asked me what was wrong． I complained（抱怨） about the shop girls being very rude and always looking at my legs． I was embarrassed that they were talking about my white skin．My friend laughed，" they weren't laughing at you． They were saying how nice your legs are． Many Chinese women want to have white skin like yours． In fact， there are many beauty products in the shops to make skin white and a lot of money is spent on them．"

It just goes to show that we are never happy with what we have． The grass is always greener on other side． If the woman of the west and east thought the same way， western women wouldn't spend so much money on cream that makes skin darker and women from the east wouldn't need to use cream that makes skin whiter．
