Indians are turning white.....Somalis may fellow suit!!!!

Postby TheLoFather » Wed Nov 09, 2011 6:11 pm

The best selling beauty product in India for both men and women is Skin-lightening creams.
What concerns me most is that I have seen some of these products in many Somali shops in uk and Somalia ( and I guess it is the same in other somali shops elsewhere ). I can see why indians may wanna be white but why on earth are they selling these products in Somali shops and why would a Somali buy them..?

“...The real tragedy is that people who are not fair suffer complexes, feel inferior and are often discriminated against purely because of their skin tone...”

I've noticed that Indians try to associate themselves with whites more than any other people.

I pity most Hindis, my highschool associate was a Hindi and the girl was insecure about her skin, I always wondered if she bleached her skin.

I heard of a story from a friend of mine that somewhere in Somali, it was popular amongst guys. I heard they'd put it on from neck to toe and tie their ankles with plastic so that it doesn't drain out. :? How does that work?

Tell me about it! I used to censure girls resorting to this sorts of behaviors, but guys doing it makes me say WTF.

They must have been influenced by those Hindi films and their advert :down:

authorities in Somalia must take action against these films (censorship) and ban the sale of these products!!!!..... imagine the health implication!
