Don't ignore them as it will always prick you like a thorn, instead work hard and try to improve your flaws!!!! (wisdom of experience👍🏼)

Wow. it's fantastic that Frieda has opened up and talked about color acceptance among desis (now a rising movement)! she seems like a great beautiful role model of a Indian who has accepted her color as a beauty token ! :):)

hopefully, it will help all females in India realize that their epidermis shade, ranging from ivory to ebony, is all beautiful.. because our epidermis is an organ of our body. as beautiful as it is, it does not define us though. what's inside is what defines us.

Do all indians wants to be white?

In my opinion all those "Pinto fans" who are calling indians racist just because they don't share ur opinions implicitly practice Bigotry ( Def:- stubborn and complete intolerance of any creed, belief, or opinion that differs from one's own ). In fact, going those fans argument, I can turn the tables completely and claim that it is the dark skin obsession with Asian or African beauties with the elite magazines to add some exotic flavour to their subscription.Even though im a huge fan of freida i can see why lot of indians consider her as average and also why westerners hail her as great beauty
