Last night, my sister and I were coming back home from the gym walking, and on the other side of the street, ahead of us, were two Arab ladies. My sister says, “those are Arab!”
I said, “how do you know, can you see that far? I can’t tell” (They weren’t mohajabat obviously, and by the way I am half blind.. well mostly blind!)
She said, “yah.. they have a distinct walk. I can tell!”
I said, “how so? What’s this distinct walk look like?”
She said, “well.. you know.. the walk.. they all walk the same.”
(We were walking faster, and we were able to see who it was better.)
I said, “ok.. so you really have no particular reasoning behind your argument, and you just know they are mom’s friends cause you seen them before?”
She said, “yah.. that’s probably it.”
I said, “great analysis! You should win an award for being so perceptive!”
She said, “what does perceptive mean?”

“what does perceptive mean?”
hahahah!
But Arabs DO have a walk… I swear I can point it out from a hundred miles! And if its not the walk, its the attitude they have in a shop or something, even if I can’t here them speaking Arabic, or if they don’t look Arab, its just a charisma we have lol…
(not proud of it though, it sucks!)

Its probably the perfume that you can smell from across the street, or the make up that is never toned down no matter what time of the day it is…
