Why is Gora rang so important??

Re: Why is Gora rang so important??

Maybe it's preferred in the rishta process, because they want to have white skin toned grandchildren?

Re: Why is Gora rang so important??

Not maybe, but definitely.

I know this aunty who was telling my mom once about how her parents did a very smart thing by getting her and her sisters married to men with lighter skin and all the sons married to girls with light skin because now they have kids with lighter skin. She was very worried about the skin tone of her newborn granddaughter because her gora chitta son married a dark skinned Indian girl :hinna:

The thing about your rang is that you cant change it and just like beauty it is subjective. Not everyone Will find you kaali and not everyone Will find you gori either.

See for instance, I am BB 4-4,5 depending on the weather. In my family and friends, they would say I'm fair, but on Gs people with the same Foundation no. Are called sanwali or even worse when its a rishta auntie, kaalis.

I hope After This analysis you see that at the end of the Day: WHO cares man!?!??!?! No one! Live happy!!! :)

goray rang ka zamana
kabhi hoga na purana

lagay sub ko hi pyara
zara kr to ishara gori yehay

i was sent out of class as punishment on singing this Vital Signs item in school days :p

Re: Why is Gora rang so important??

I actually prefer guys who are caramel/brown color because they have good features. Most often with very fair guys it's just colouring.unless they're Iranain .Then it's like features + colouring.

Re: Why is Gora rang so important??

It's the legacy of white supremacy and the British were not the first perpetrators of it. Various groups migrated into South Asia from West Asia in ancient times and were decidedly fairer skinned than the natives they encountered. Each contributed to this view generally held by South Asians, that gora rang is better. The aboriginal dark skinned population of South Asia in a manner similar to how the Natives in America were conquered by Spaniards, were subdued and conquered by the various hordes of pale skinned West Asians. So this is why even to this day, there is correlation between skin colour and class in South Asia, where in each region, the darkest inhabitants are generally the lowest castes, and make up the bulk of the lower classes.

I personally find "fair skin" and "caucasoid" features unattractive - no offense to those that are, it's my just my taste based on a upbringing that made me very racially aware. I prefer darker skinned women, black african and dark chocolate brown skinned South Asian women, especially. So it's not true that "everyone" prefers "gora rang", but there are historical reasons for why the majority do in places like South Asia. It's not necessarily "natural", it's a consequence of the historic meetings of peoples and the power imbalances that developed.

Be it fair or non-fair colour..what attracts me in a girl is her features..in terms of appearance.

Re: Why is Gora rang so important??

When you judge someone's appearance, just remember the Creator and how much He would dislike it if you dislike His creation. Allah created everyone differently and in a way that is better for that person and with so much love, so appreciate.
