Skin-whitening creams: worthy of anger?

Ah, Horetore, to be honest with you most of those peole look better in the "pale" pics. Many of the women look older and especially scraggy in the "tanned" pics. I'm always wary of such celeb pics though due to the editing of the pics and the selection process involved.

The bases are also somewhat loaded, as many of those women are actually not "white", and don't necessarily look healthy when pale. Though, to be honest, I don't find Mariah Carrey attractive at all really.

Yeah, she's a strange-looking woman. But then, that makes her strangely appealing. In a strange sort of way.

I know what you mean, but still no. A friend of mine likes the "mixed race" look, but from my point of view she's not a great mix.

Then I don't like the fact that she seems to ossilate between being "white" or "black" depending on which is more in fashion.

She looks a bit like a monkey imho, don't find her very atractive. Girl I know is half Spanish half Turkish hotdamn on a mother plane

Uhm...? I thought she was white with a tan? Whatever, mane, that's not what I meant. I think it's the fame that gives her the small trinket of sexiness.

EDIT: And to add to Frag's comment, I've seen some very, very hot Metis girls in my time. They're a people well-known for their looks, absorbing the best of both sides.

She's of mixed African/white descent, supposedly. When she first appeared she marketed herself as white, now she markets herself as black.

so now she has a tan, where before she didn't. A similar phenomenon, occurs when some directors want Jessica Alba to look more European, then have here hair lightened, or her skin, etc.

While this thread is quite past that point, but I'll still like to point out that this fairer is more beautiful concept is not limited to India. And it certainly does not have anything to do with the caste system at all. In general people from Northern India are fairer and those from the South are duskier, and that's mainly because of the difference in the race. South India has people of the Dravidian stock while North Indian stock is quite mixed, but originally Aryan.
Anyway like I was saying, 'fairer is better' is not limited to India. Western writers and poets have since ages raved about the fairness of their ladies and written poems in honour of their alabaster skin......

But yeah, people here are still a little backward that way. The girl being fair has some weight-age when negotiating matrimonial alliances....specially with the elders.
