I always avoid the women, especially asian women as they seem to be very meticulous, and the fkin queue doesn't budge

no idea either but my impression is at least 40% versus 10% for population at large

i used to kid myself i wasn't racist until the last time I can through passport control and there wasn't a single white face behind any of the desks

and i thought "o dear"

Whenever I come back into the UK through passport control, if its a asian woman on the desk I always try to touch her hand, as I know it makes them feel dirty touching a infidel. :)
