What does her being a woman have to do with anything?

Come on... he's not being racist or anything close to it. Sometimes race, like gender, is used to describe someone.

Oh man, I am just like you OP. I can't say no, ever. I always think it's rude to tell people to leave me alone/shut up/not tell me their lifestories on the train etc.

know the feeling, think about it this way though
they're being rude by not leaving you alone and keep harrassing you, so just make it quick and
close the door, be rude yourself (one could call it self-defense-rudeness )
maybe even become a bit louder sometimes, don't even start to discuss with these people "No" period, done.

oh and btw. if she kept saying "the newspaper is coming no matter what" just say "cool but I didn't ask for it and I won't pay anyone here"

just be reasonable, not nice, not even rude

People that ask for tips don't deserve one.

In Holland it's more common to not give a tip for everything (only tipping I know of is in restaurants), but I guess in US thats different.

Anyway, I consider it rude to ask for tips, even if you deserve one. She already gets paid by her boss you know.

even so it's still a strange distinction to make. would he have said "a random white lady knocked on my door"?

He did, but Im sure he didn't have any thoughts behind it. He just recapitulated his memories and her being a black woman stuck in his head, so he wrote it down. Not racist at all imo.

As others said before, dont give anything to people who want money from you without having a respectable reason.

I hate to be rude, but you're a dummy

who the fuck DEMANDS a tip? the second someone DEMANDS a tip, is the second you refuse to give them one.

Tips are by definition optional, aren't they? Thats why a tip is a tip and paying the bill is paying the bill...
love you long time
