Re: dark/fair complexion..
Exactly wot i was saying KAKA-ATOM-BUM...
MehnazQ, not in those exact words, but it seems it was implied. Anyway, i just think it's something that everyone seems to jump up and feel sorry for ppl with dark skin. Hey i come from a mixed family, half of us r quite fair and the others r tanned/dark...so i can certainly understand both sides...but seriously, i don't think that thesedays, ppl look so much into colour of skin when looking for a daughter-in-law. And if some aunties do, then o well...that is their preference. Wot's so bad if they like lighter skin, i'm sure they look at their features and personality too. But it is wrong, if their sons don't like the fair skin...bcos they r the ones who have to spend their lives together! I agree it is still changing so that's good. Maybe asians in general have always liked light skinned ppl just like, as a whole, other races have their preferences of beauty too but of course not every person in that race is gona think alike. Today, i see ppl not liking fair skin bcos i duno it's not "in" or doesn't look healthy etc...and also some ppl not liking dark skin...so both types of ppl r gona face others not liking them...bcos not everyone has the same taste. We shud all just like wot we like, without having to justify it yea.
