If she is fair she is a beauty if she is tanned she is sexy..

Why is looks such an important factor?? Why not talent, intellectuality and personality??

I don't agree with Pinto here. It's really not the case in India that I have been into. People around me are never into the complexions and all. But as ideologies do differ, there may be few who believe in skin colour but most don't. If it were so, then SRK, Ajay Devgan, Kajol, Deepika, Rajnikant, Rani Mukherjee...and the list goes on and on, would have never got the kind of fame that they have.

And beauty lies in expression and demeanor. Physically, everyone is beautiful but it;s the internal being that matters and if it's pure, the person is definitely a beauty to die for.

And yeah, never to forget, this discrimination came from west only. History is the witness, for sure. Remember Nelson Mandela's fight for self and fellows???

by the way, i dont believe either white or black is very attractive. Fair to brown works... In fact fair is generally more attractive than brown, same as a tall guy is more imposing than an average height guy. 

I believe in, beauty is in the eyes of beholder..

because we dont make love to an IQ. 😆We also do not hire an einstein when we are looking for a receptionist or cabin crew. I am sure einstein had a smart IQ, but can you see him as a sweet looking receptionist?😆 In a lot of client facing roles, looks and personality are important,...

also, why would it be any fairer to evaluate people on the basis of talent and intelligence, and not looks? These can also be in-born, same as looks... You can work hard to stay fit and look good. same as how you work hard on your skills to become talented. So why exclude good looks from the equation? 

but you know, i think that if people have it, they are happy that someone obsesses over them. If they dont have it, they gripe over people obsessing over that attribute.

by the way, i dont believe either white or black is very attractive. Fair to brown works... In fact fair is generally more attractive than brown, same as a tall guy is more imposing than an average height guy. Some things about biology we cant change, and its silly trying to pretend them away.😊

<div>For a few people scale of beauty is skin colour. That is why racism still exist. History witnessed so many fights cause of racism.

Same here
It's way too primitive to judge people on basis of the skin colour
Our beauty lie deep within our soul rather than skin
A person should be beautiful within inside
We all say ,hear this
But did we ever thought how many actually believe this
At once they judge people on their colour
But that's not only with Indian people it's kind of global
