Do people call me a hoe because I'm mixed race?

[Jessica]

I've been called a hoe or "thot" so many times lately I wear make up but it's winter/spring and still cold so I'm always covered up I'm normally oblivious to the world but walking around shopping I'll hear a girl or guy quietly call me a hoe to their friends or something like that these people never know me and I'm certainly not a hoe or even do anything for people to say I am I always see on twitter people writing stuff about lighties (lightskin girls) being hoes I don't know if that's why they're saying it it's really upsetting lately I feel like I have to go to an extra effort to make sure I'm dressed modestly to avoid attention or comment
