fairer skin..HeLP !!

^I can understand that but I think that if this needed to be pointed out it could have been done in a nicer way (like you have).

Everyone has different views and perceptions about what constitutes attractiveness. I just thought it was really rude of Riya to slam the OP when the poor girl was just asking a simple question that required no such response.

I am fair but I don't think being tanned is a bad thing either. I don't go around slamming people for being tanned or wanting to be darker. Why should I when everyone is entitled to their own opinions? I just wish people could give the same respect to those who are fair or wanting to be fair.
