Skin-whitening creams: worthy of anger?

I prefer Green with Blondes and blue for Brunettes (Green again too). Green for Red-heads too.

I think I also like Green eyes.

I can attest to this, I have a Navajo friend who is pretty pale for a Native American, she told me when she lived on the reservation everyone at school made fun of her and called her the "whitest Indian". She hasn't been spending time outside lately so a week ago she went to a tanning salon so she could "look like the rest of her family". :laugh4:

Personally I think that brown skin is the most beautiful, along with black or dark brown hair and dark eyes. Tanned white skin is ugly to me, especially when the person got tan at a tanning salon. It makes them look like they just survived a nuclear blast or something. Pale white skin can be beautiful but not always.

I like seeing the settlers getting a tan. It proves that the Real People are so great as to have their lesser beings emulate them.

But on a more serious note, I've got a story to go hand-in-hand with your own, Lignator. One of my cousins has brown hair (Metis blood), and that's not too bad, to be honest. But once, when she was on the phone, her sister was complaining that she couldn't use the phone because, and I quote, her "white sister" was hogging it. Next thing she knew, she ended up getting smashed hard over the head with that very same telephone. And it wasn't horseplay, either.

But heeeey, I'd be pretty damn pissed off, too.
