I hope I don't come off ignorant but

Are all Indian babies born with dark skin?
I haven't met any Indian in person that has lighter skin nor have I seen any Indian celebrities(expect a few Indian models featured the skin lightening products's advertisements on TV,but then again I weren't 100% that they were pure/mixed Indians or other South Asians)
Yesterday I have seen a 2/3 years old little Indian girl and she looked as dark as charcoal.Wouldn't it be a little unfair for her to be born with naturally dark skin? neartears.gif Can skin lightening products effectively lighten your skin? embarassedlaugh.gif

If Indian celebrities with light skin do exist please post their pics.Thanks laugh.gif

How can it be unfair to be born with naturally dark skin? Its not like people can choose his or her skin color, so that fact alone denounces any fair/unfairness.

i agree with you dude.
i always preferred dark skin to light skin, i don't know why...
maybe because to me dark skin symbolizes "someone child to Nature"
it's wilder... purer...

anyway, dark or light, Indian women will always be beautiful...
look at the number of Miss World and Universe won by Indian women...

you say the sillyist things sometimes theng lol
I mean seriously how could you not know there are people who are born naturally dark?
what planet do you live on?

Wouldn't be unfair for scandinavian girls to be born with white skin, and aren't there some not so white?

In theory. If they do, the price to pay would be pretty high (as skin damage). Could you change the colour of your ayes?

Let me check.... hmmm year si still 2008, not 1008. There are foreigners living in Sudan as well. For centuries. I guess there are lighter celebries too. Would it proof anything?

(It sounded like the colour of somebody's skin somehow bugs you or you have some likes/dislakes. Seems odd for me, but I'm actually a pretty dumb person)

Well you cant do anything about it, I have cousins who are darker & lighter than me.

^Me & my sis, even though we are siblings our skintone are a lot diff.

^ NO LOL! embarassedlaugh.gif
she was being very clear
when she saw a picture of me she seemed pretty anooyed that I wasnt light skin
she asked me was I born dark(like I could just magically make myself 4 skin tones darker over night without looking creepy embarassedlaugh.gif)
but yeah I think she looks at dark skin people as if we have a mental disablity of we're deformed
(you know how people look down on little people or those in whell chairs)
or she pittys us shifty.gif

Almost all of my north Indian friends are fair, some of them are so fair that one would think that they are Italian or something.

I'd say like 95% of my Indian friends are fair skinned and they did not use any skin lightening products and are pure indian.

And what is so unfair to be bornd with dark skin?

If it's because of your demographics i will excuse your comments.
It seems you don't know any better.



oops lol i'll edit this later
















and there is so many more
i'll state their names later

Yes very true. One of my uncles (father's elder brother) works in U.K. he told me that everyone thinks that he is Italian, because everyone talks in British accent and wear typical clothes so there is no way to know unless he tells you about his origins. My uncle has a very fair complexion, I am also fair.

due to the fact that vaman advocates that all indians are the same, i belive the above was a sarcastic post

What is your problem dude? My post states that Indians come in all human colors. In hotter climates people tend to be darker, in colder climates people have lighter complexions. So you need to better your read comprehension rather than needlessly picking on others for no reason.

I'm positive she knows, she just wants to show off...that shows up her character...

I mean come on- just because someone is fair that don't automatically mean they are beautiful.
I've seen ugly fair skinned people, and beautiful dark skinned people..
I've seen girls with real dark skinned and they were hot as scotch bonnet pepper...

I seriosuly hope shes joking because she always came off to me as someone who knew better >.>

Do u realise that "your" has a different meaning than "you are"?
and it's prominent politician,not predominant laugh.gif I spelled it wrongly before but I didn't expect u to be dumb enough to copy that blindly.Besides that if u were to stalk my old posts,u should have known that I am aiming to study engineering.
And one last thing I don't get why u kept denying the fact that u are an Indian(doesn't matter your dad is a white or not,Indian blood is running in your body)It seems like u are ashamed to be an Indian,aren't u? laugh.gif

Last time I checked, it is the nose that makes or breaks the face, not skin tone. Generally speaking, Indians have desirable high nose bridge and large eyes. What do you have? The tone of my waste plaque from eating too much candy (yellow?).... and eyes that can barely open a few cracks. pukeface.gif
