TYT is right.

There are loads of such ads that make such girls (or suckers) opt for these whitening shitty creams because they think they're being raised on some higher pedestal being fair.
Stoopid.

Tanning or whitening is stupid. You're changing yourself to get a goddamn guy. How shallow can you get?

I hope there's some way people everywhere can get rid of this thought. God pigmented us, and I bet he loves us all the same.

@willia3r This sort of thinking has nothing to do with Eurocentrism. All races come in shades of lighter and darker and the lighter is generally preferred because of it's association with wealth.

We're sensitive in the US because any mention of skin color correlates directly to race. But there's no such issue in India. If this was a commercial for booty-shaping cream or push-up bras or any other nonsense no one would be offended.

Quite frankly, I do not agree with your opinion, which is just that: an opinion.

Skin lightening cream is big over there(In India). But thank you for your input.

God bless.

yea its not racist at all in that region of the world.
cuz racism isnt at the tip of their tongue just waiting to be fired at any insignificant thing lol

most cream ads have been doing this for more than 20 years in india and other countries with no issues whatsoever.

so please try to control the racism within the boundaries of the usa cuz its not a worldwide problem.
