dark/fair complexion..

Hey guyz,
I was talking about this subject with my friends over lunch.
Jus wanted to get ppl’s views and what they think??
If ur a girl with fair complexion, u might have not have thought abt it, maybe u have, coz ur younger or older sister is of a darker complexion.But these dayz there’s incredible pressure for girls with dark skin to look “whiter” So they can be acceptable into society or maybe when their get married.Their motherlaws can b able to say"chand ka tukra"…blah blah…and the rest of it!
Its not just in Pak, its everywhere. I jus feel so sad for girls that have darker complexion coz regardless if their features are pretty or watever their culturally never accepted…how many mothers that look for a daughter inlaw,actually wuld consider a dark complexion girl..i honestly cant think of any…

Re: dark/fair complexion..

It's really sick and i'd say kinda degrading when ppl go "shopping around" for bahus/wives based purely on looks and status.. The whole arranged system is based on looks/criteria..

it's really funny and at the same time sad when u say that darker grls aren't "culturally accepted" .. lighter skinned grls r usually mistaken to be anything BUT desi.. so it's kinda ironic, that the beauty standard in our culture happens to be "the whiter the better".

Re: dark/fair complexion..

nida you are right but its time to change it.

I find it amazing myself when i see larka looking like tawe ka picha hisa and mother in law is looking for a baho that is goori chiti doodh mein dulhi hoi. I would not want to be part of that family i can guarantee you that much. Its best to stay away from illerate families.

Re: dark/fair complexion..

“doodh mein dulhi hui” ? :expressionless:

:smack: nvm i got it :stuck_out_tongue: Yeah it’s icky when the guy is super fugly n the family doens’t even care, they want some supermodel grl.. but can u really blame em, they want grandkids with SOME good genes :stuck_out_tongue:

Re: dark/fair complexion..

sara as they say doodh pe pe ke insaan gora chita ho jata hai... :p larki apni urdu darust karo... :p

Re: dark/fair complexion..

Hahahhaa u know what, i thot something totally different!! Then i realized what “dulhi” meant.. for some reason i read it as well somethin else :rolleyes:

Re: dark/fair complexion..

^with the same token then 4"11 girls shouldn’t be looking for 6"4 guys. It’s a matter of preference - similar to how girls want tall guys.

BTW before making fun of “illerate” families, at least learn how to spell illiterate. :hehe:

Re: dark/fair complexion..

Umm i dunno any 411 grls who want 6'4" guys.. hell r ther eeven any 6'4" desi guys?? :p

Re: dark/fair complexion..

Gande… :yukh:

Re: dark/fair complexion..

:mudhosh: Sara…

Re: dark/fair complexion..

Duno what you are talking bout, as far as i know the tan look is hawt

I tan my legs and arms :hula:
they look shexsy

Re: dark/fair complexion..

the gorian want to tan themselves, the kalian want to get gora. that is my honest observation.

Re: dark/fair complexion..

U know, i actually agree with u on this one :eek: :smiley:

It is about preference. And wot makes me sick, is that some ppl give lighter skinned asians a hard time, just bcos i duno, they ASSUME that those lighter skinned ppl think they r better than them. I’ve actually noticed that ppl thesedays r more accepting of tan/brown shades of skin than they were before. My khala has 4 daughter-in-laws, Mashallah. Two of them r quite fair (from Punjabi/Kashmiri roots), one is tan/dark (from Karachi), and the other is quite dark (from African roots)…and u know wot, she loves and treats them all the same…they r all beautiful in their own ways.

But it really comes down to wot u prefer…like eye and hair colours, for example.

Re: dark/fair complexion..

Lol, i have a cousin who’s 5’ and she’s with a guy who’s 6’2…so yea, some short girls do want tall guys…and some tall guys like short girls…i personally wudn’t be attracted to someone more than 6’. And yes, there r lots of desi guys who r 6’ plus :slight_smile: But that does seem way above the average :slight_smile:
