@81tamara baby i was born this wayy lol ....> they alll need to listen to lady gaga born this way

[MisterRepoMan]

LOL this lady sounds funny, seriously, I bet those chemicals in those whitening products will cause skin cancer. Why are filipinos infatuated with being white and plastic surgery?

[PignoyPride]

filipinos suffer from inferiority complex... that's why they yearn to "become white" cuz they look up to their white masters like dogs

@jimbob202019 Thinking Pale skin makes you look "dead" is as bad as black/brown women thinking their skin makes them look "dirty".

@msSexypearls Some people change genders, some people tan, if someone wants to lighten their skin- who cares!!!

Man. Come on my fellow filipinos. Embrace your brownness. In fact, how bout we focus our energy on enhancing the beauty of our skin tone rather than trying to change it. As a rather tan filipina myself, not only am i proud of my skin tone, but see the beauty of all colors as well. We all have our strengths and unique features, so why not play them rather than change or hide them!!

Our people are so stupid. I'm glad we don't think like that here in the U.S. Don't they know that it is obvious that their skin has had treatment? You aren't fooling anybody.
