Cultural Or Psychological - Please Help Before & After: Girl Bleaches Skin by tonychristopher: 9:27am On Mar 17, 2015
I am just confused because I just do not know where and how to categorize this but I think it best fits the cultural section. I was just browsing on my own this morning as the traditional routine in office before I face the work of the day. I bumped into Linda Ikeji site(That girl can gossip sha) then I met this tat or do I call her tot dissing on herself and black skinned people.

I asked myself has our ladies gone this low, I do not know the obsession with anything alien or foreign, it is so bad that she hates herself. I am not saying that bleaching is good or bad, medically they said it was bad but I think that most ladies have crossed the Rubicon that is the point of no return in their madness. You put on fake attitude, fake accents, fake butts, fake booobs, fake hair, fake nails, fake pupils fake skin and now fake psyche.
Where I come from in igbo land my grand dad was very fair, we are fair, In my family fairness is natural to us, yesterday my wife was telling me that work stress is making me dark and me I do not even use special soap, I use B29 or Bimbo soap at most I buy eva soap and I don’t attach importance to skin fairness. I notice that if I am out of sun shine for some time I get lighter without cream, if I travel outside the country during winter I get lighter very light but I am not worried…but back home especially here in lagos I see women hawking chemicals in ojas and market place trying to be fair and I know that there is a reason that God made our melanin content to by high. All I ask is it cultural or psychological for some women t feel dirty and absurd if they are dark. Yes my lovely wife is fair but that doesn’t mean that I have fair girls preference just that in my place (Igbo) fairness is normal and most people are either fair or just chocolate not that too dark. But it is high time African women start showing appreciation for their skins. This is becoming embarrassing.


All I ask is that is it a cultural or psychological thing for women from some group to prefer bleaching ? I know sme dark women like Genevieve, Dakore and Kate Henshaw they are dark but yet pretty.

So what is your take

Isn't she entitled to her opinion of her own self?
She's telling u she looked dirty while still a darkskin. So she altered her skin color to look at least tolerable. Although to be frank (afterall beauty, they say, lies in beholder's eyes) the "before" photo is actually the clean-looking one in my opinion.

I'm attracted to beauty, not skin color.
An ugly rat will remain an ugly rat even when stripped down to the bones.

As for your question, i'd say psychological. It's a serious case of inferiority complex.

She was damn fûcking pretty when she was dark and now looks ugly. Damn!

I'll take one of her old looks over a million of her new look..

I shît on her bleached out brains tho..

**Modified **

OP what help do you think/feel she needs? Maybe a path on the back after insulting we the blacks that chose to keep our natural color rather having a self imposed vitiligo?
