Ironic Irony?

As we talk about the "Ideal Beauty", how in the Western Culture, the more "european" you look, the more beautiful you are considered. That goes for Black women, who are only considered to be beautiful if they have lighter skin, straight hair and less broad features. This goes for Asian women, who are only considered beautiful, if they have less of a slanted eye, and less broad features like the nose. This goes for people of hispanic and east indian descent who are considered to be more beautiful if they have lighter skin. As I look at all of the avatars of the girls on here, who do they look similar to? It seems that most women or young women make their avatars look more white than anything else. Like if they were black, they would make their avatars have lighter skin, and more "european" facial features with straight or loose curly hair. The asian women Avatars eyes are hardly ever slanted, and you could almost confuse them with being white. Has anyone ever noticed this?



Ironic Irony?

I totally agree with you.



I see more girls with 'white' avatars than any other...



They go, "I'm asian/black/hispanic....blah blah..." in their question yet I see a white girl avatar...lol



Kinda sad.

The only comment for your looooong onservation is...



Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholders, not the thing!



Ironic Irony?

Wow, that's deep. I never really thought about it but I think that white people envy an asian woman's beauty sometimes.



Ironic Irony?

thats why i dont have an avatar because I cant make one to look like me, so I just said forget about it! lol



and about the lighter skin thing....nah



i have like a tanned skin color and ive seen many other black females who are very pretty and that arent light-skinned.



and yes some look better than me!
