In my opinion, everyone is unique and everyone has something special about him or her whether it be personality, intelligence or any other personal attribute. Thus, it doesn't matter whether a person is fair or not.

On the other wussies cannot handle the real thing. They need all that cream and sugar to lighten it up and sweeten the deal. Often to the point that you have to gag on that filthy saccharine laced solution with ugly pasty opulence. What do they know about true taste?

So the conclusion is that those who are obsessed with fairness are wussies. Maybe Indians are wussies. Half the country does not appreciate coffee. Darned followers of tea drinking bootwearers!!!!

Only few people in this world can carry of pastiness in a completely hot manner like Robert Pattison or Anne Hathaway.

@Rage of Angels - What if I'm into Asians? I honestly am. I seriously like my bishie boys with their pretty hair and all that K-Pop goodness.

@Sonur15 - Angelina Jolie? Are we talking about fair skinned people or pelicans?

I didn't get your post at all especially the red bolded part. Are you being sarcastic and mean something else or do you literally mean what you've written?? Confused

i guess the media has to blamed for the hype that they have created for fair skin
loads of fairness creams, soaps advertisements depicting fair models
and spreading the view that fairness can increase ur confidence level.
people get affected by the media, so its their responsibility to spread the message that fairness doesn't counts. its the inner beauty and the self confidence

Its dark humor (pun unintended)

To put my opinion in more plain words. I think people who consciously think one skin tone is better than another are being unfair. I do find it saddening that some Indians do seem to be obsessed with fairness. I think people ought to appreciate the beauty within a person. Skin tone barely scratches the surface of what makes a person beautiful.
