In china it doesnt matter whether a girl is ugly or not as long as she`s paled skinned she`s deemed to be pretty.Its a joke.
The parasols in the summer and the massive campaign on tv advertizing whitening lotion is enough proof.
Local chicks are dumbfounded to see that white chicks dont flee from the sun and some have tanned skin.They`ve been told Americans are white, blue eyes and blonde.Who are these tanned devils? hehehhe.

what? do chinese have to have the same aesthetic standard as you? if they don't, then it is a joke? who are you to say that?
white people like tanned skin, and it seems that everybody has known that. there are so many ignorant (maybe i should not use this word. they don't need to know that) chicks around you?

When I came here it was the first time in my life that I was complimented on being white and was told it is beautiful. My daily experiences in my hometown made me feel that I should be apologizing for being white.
"You white c**t", was a commonly heard and unprovoked phrase growing up.
Basically I don't tan at all, though I wish I did as it would give me slightly less chance of getting skin cancer.
Sometimes the same is different, but mostly, it's the same.
There is nothing like white,black,yellow or red skin stupid!just human beings once you start talking about color then things get racist and f***ed up!No matter how many parasols Chinese girls carry or how much skin lotion they buy they will never be white!coz there is nothing like that!white means pale and ghost like so shut this stupid thread before things get ugly,Bobby you are a loser and a wannabe,so you mean to say Chinese girls are ashamed of their skin? this is the most STUPID thing I've ever heard,most of the people answered aginst such stupid notions.Look fortopics that do ont cause divisions.You have proved that you are sexy man just disguised as Bobby liu...loser!

I would cite the continued sales of skin whitening lotions as the overwhelming response to this remark.
I don't condone it, and I think they are crazy, but I also think we can safely say that the perception in China is that the lighter your skin the further you will go in life here.

Bobby, did you know that the Chinese in UK liked to get tanned?
You mean all 300,000 or so of them? Your survey skills are truly amazing!
You know what I mean. No need to explain. :)
Oh right...over-generalizations are perfectly acceptable.
So please explain to me why this is an over-generalization. It's more a very thought-out and to detail observation. Are you the 1 out of 300,000 that wears pearl based face cream? I'm sorry I missed you out of the survey.
OK, seriously, I've not met a Brit Chinese, I mean BBC, who shies away from the sun when it's beaming.
