    Skin whiteners labeled racist - CNN.com

    In one TV commercial, two men, one with dark skin, the other with light skin; stand on a balcony overlooking a neighborhood. The dark skin guy turns to his friend and says in Hindi, "I am unlucky because of my face." His light skin friend replies, "Not because of your face, because of the color of your face."
    Habib should know. He owns a chain of 140 salons located in India and across the world. "We Indian people, we Asian people are more darker, so we want to look more fair."
    Habib is Uncle Ruckus. MO BLACKA, MO DAHKA.

    I sure hope this product comes state side. Damn clear skin, I need lighter skin.

    It's less funny when you realize that it's kinda true. Jackie chan even looks the way he does because he specifically had plastic surgery to look whiter knowing that a guy that actually looked asian wouldn't make it in Hollywood. You can say the same about numerous other stars.

    I thought that he had the surgery to make his eyes look more western, rather than to change the colour of his skin. I'll have a look when I get home.

    Was back in 1976 I think, I would like to think he would have made it in the west without the change to his eyes, would have I am sure.

    As an aside, this is a pretty typical surgery in South Korea, isn't it? /cue pics of plastic surgery race queens.

    Yeah my ex gf who's korean had it done, just makes the eyes looks bigger. All they do is cut out a little bit of skin to put in the little folds in the eyelids us whiteys have. Tbh whatever make's them happy I guess.

    Interesting. Jackie Chan needs English language surgery. Also, I'm pretty sure no fan has ever said "man that white looking Asian guy sure has martial art talent!" or "Rush Hour 2 was good because the skin tone was just right."

    Oh well.

    It's not Hollywood or "Amerikkka" that is the cause of this despite people believing so. The Indian caste system causes this.
