Why the market for skin lightening is growing

[KENNY DA COOKER]

Aren't you a 50 year old member of the NGE? CONSIDERED A GANG IN THE PRISON SYSTEM? I ain't from here, just like you're NOT FROM JAMAICA. You from New York and you live in the predominantly AA south. Don't get your building torched.

which building boo?

i own SEVERAL PROPERTIES

NGE is not and never has been a gang..yeah u got rogue elements in jail and you had em in the streets such as the A TEAM and SUPREME TEAM

but my older god (enlightner) taught me valuable lessons which led me to become a good father, homeowner and businessman...who empowers plenty of AA's and CARIBS and AFRICANS

unlike your identity having azz trying to be the NIPSEY HUSSLE of canada

man grow the fukk up and be a FATHER to that b*stard of a child of yours ......you too old to be CRIPPING and working on mixtapes

My c00naddy married an Asian and now I has a Filipino step mother. She about that life, be on it heavy.

Was just about to say my aunts friend came back from the Philippines with gifts and one was a face mask that bleach out your face, my aunt was quite offended but honestly her friend thought she had given her something great

AA don’t bleach, actually Southeast Asians bleach way more than Africans.

Asians r the biggest consumers of this


I have heard that African use of it is overblown by the media via some friends of mine from Africa. And I believe it. The Africans in the city I live u rarely ever see someone who bleached


And that 8 out of 10 thing in Nigeria soundss like complete bullshyt.

Why every time this thread is made it turns into some type of contest? Everybody with brown skin is dealing with this problem, what the fukk are y'all competing over? And nah it's not just a west indian, african, or asian thing.

Hygiene challenged Indians shouldn't talk bout Muslims. Worry bout your wiping your ass and the colorism and caste discrimination in your society. You cac wannabes.

THAT'S A GOTTDAMN LIE

We all are guilty of it.....africans..carribeans...afro latinoes....

and especiaclly the AA GANG (AFRICAN AMERICANS)

I live in the deep south breh..been here for 20 years now...and i done seen it all amongst AFRICAN AMERICANS

Like the variuos fraternal orgnaizations that practiced coloroisim such as the AKA's (light brights) during its earlier time and L' Shanti

or the Historical Black church i came across in southeast Georgia which was told by many elders in the community that it was the "REDBONE CHURCH"

im not making this up....if you were DARKER than the light mahagony front door entrance ...u really wasn't gonna be accepted ....

unless YOU HAD MONEY like my uncle whom happned to be a dark skin man who made alot of money working on the railroad as one of the first black men to work for that rail company during the times of segregation.....

and married a LIGHTSKINED woman ..as his "pass"

so dont tell me that bullshyt about AFRICAN AMERICANS being more "culturally prideful" or opposed to colorisim...

african americans are some of the biggest abusers because of our desire to be ASSIMILIATED into mainstream (white) society...

look at all the AFRICAN AMERICAN RAPPERS who will skip over 10 beautiful dark skin women just to get to one average looking Yellow bone female

or the countless legions of black people famous and non famous whom view themselves as ugly...

"hearthrob never..BLACK and ugly as ever" - Biggie

come on breh.......stop this tribal shyt...WE ALL FUKKED UP IN THE HEAD AS BLACK PEOPLE

OUR ISSUES ARE ON A GLOBAL LEVEL.....

nikka you talkin bout some shyt from the Goddamn Jim crow and reconstruction eras. Don't try to bring us into y'all shyt. We don't drag y'all in when it's time to talk about black on black violence or selling crack.

Post me a pic of one AA that has bleached they skin, because I can post numerous pics of random Africans and Caribbean nikkas that have bleached. Skin bleaching is not and has never been popular in the AA community. We will clown your ass to sleep for bleaching your skin. Colorism has existed since the beginning but skin bleaching fukk outta here. Our culture is different, we are a more self conscious people, shyt like that wouldn't fly and biggie is Jamaican fukk u talkin any other time when y'all claim y'all created Hip Hop then y'all claiming he's not AA

I'd take a shot at your society but I remembered you don't really have one

 

[Cadillac]

For Asians I think it's something like dark skin associated with poor nikkas. The lower class is always doing manual labor outside and shyt while the rich nikkas don't need to do that so they got the paler skin. Having dark skin and Asia is like rocking a polo without a logo or running around with Payless Shaq dunks or some shyt. It's associated with brokeness.

Yeah many of those countries had that type of history.

If I recall correctly
India's caste system which has existed for a long time is color based where the lightest r on top and darkest is on the bottom.

It's been a while since I read up on it

aatribe ain't holding the bag for this one

it's a just measure of colorism&ignorance over here

jahahahahaa

black american women AND BLACK AMERICAN MEN are just more discreet about it...

but please believe it THEY BLEACHING TOO

that same uncle from the south i was telling yall about...use to go thru jars of Noxema because according to my cousin he was "ashamed" of being the "darkest one" in the church

sad............

but he would never discuss it openly or admit to it....

just like alot of these African American women and males ive come across over the years.......

SELF HATRED IS A MUTHAPHUKA

nikka this shyt is for pimples and blackheads, people use it for clearer skin not lighter skin. You posting like a lunatic right now, God.

Lmao. I have more of a society than you. At least my country in a devastating war, has proper hygiene facilities

 

[Bawon Samedi]

It's a mostly a West African and Islander thing.

East Africans bleach way more than West Africans and Islanders. It just doesn't cause a big controversy with you guys because

1. Some of you guys don't consider yourselves Black and so its not deemed "self-hating." Again keyword, "some."

2. You guys don't have a big influence in the West compared to Jamaicans, Nigerians or Ghanaians.

3. Some(again keyword) don't consider you guys "key negros" and so its not looked at as controversial.

US study finds Somalians go to extremes to lighten skin

I see many East African women bleaching online. Second I would have to say its French Africans especially from the Muslim countries.
