Re: Do Indian Women Want Lighter Skin?
yeh but boob job adverts have the same theme of 'the one obstacle in my life...' kinda thing. i dont think its racist. it just plays on insecuritys of women cos we are never happy with anything....we either think we are too pale, too dark, too fat or too thin and comestic companys tap in on these insecurities and market products aimed at people seeing it and thinking 'omg if i take that my life will be better'. i dont think its racist...if a skin lightner is racist then so is a bottle of fake tan in my eyes.

theres a difference between racisim (hating on someone purely because of their race and being predjuce) and not particularly liking pale skin. i think sometimes racism word comes in too quickly when talking about skin colour...not liking something doesnt make a person racist.
