I see no reason why anyone should bleach their skin. Use cream that good on your skin and you're good to gogrin
You are right tho, it's better using a good cream to maintain your skin than bleaching it.

I always say that a womans beauty is not based on her skin colour. Ive seen so many unattractive skin/fair women. I'm just being honest. Laura ikeji is one of them. Same with unattractive dark women.

The attractiveness comes from your features. The proportion of your face. How symmetrical your feautures are. So regarless of your skin colour, if you're fine, youre fine. However, its the brainwashed westernized mentality that a lot of men have. So they cant see past a womans skin tone.

So that means you will marry a dark girl?
Sister tori, this your argument no hold water. Most people around me are dark. I see dark skinned ladies getting married. I'm not a guy

Its an issue of colourism.

its an unconscious discrimination agaisnt dark skin women. Its funny, because most of the people that bring down dark women are DARK MEN. They are dark themselves, yet they despise women with their same complexion. It's self hate. Thats the reason why women bleach their skin.

Everybody needs validation in their life, and if a women feels like shes not recieving that validation due to her skin colour, she'll change it. They're some women who are secure in themselves, and believe they're beautiful regardless. However, most are not, and change their skin to feel more accepted and loved.
This is very true. Dark guys carry colourism for head. Some will say "I don't want my kids to be dark, I need yellow kids" forgetting that they themselves are dark, thereby bringing favoritism among their kids.

They bleach because most times men prefer light skinned girls to dark skinned girls, unless they can't get the light ones, they settle for the dark ones but they won't love her entirely or spend on her the way they will spend on the light skinned girl.


They also prefer to marry light skinned girls.



A guy onces said if a girl is not light skinned, she is ugly, dirty and she is ajekpako, light skinned ajebutter and beautiful, so far the girl is just yellow and he only dates light skinned girls.



I guess black is no longer beautiful in Africa.

A guy onces told me to bleach my skin, saying that I will look like a goddess if I do but I refused bluntly cos I'm beautiful just the way I am...

I pity the black race, low self esteem and colorism is killing us.

Point of correction say Nigerian men and not men. Not all men suffer from inferiority complex. From my experience this is more common with Nigerian men. I remember a thread posted about this Senegalese beauty and a lot of guys were saying she is too dark and one even said she should bleach. It was then I started to understand why Nigeria has such a high record of bleaching. It's all about demand and supply undecided

In sorry but youre wrong. Its men all over the world.
I live in the Uk and its a problem here. Its a problem in the US. Heck, this even happens in asia. Indian women bleach their skin, because its preferable to be lighter in their community.

Im sorry, but that's just the truth.

Really, you should be glad you have your skin tone, most black girls suffer undue discrimination, even during job interviews.


Truth is skin tone is all about taking care of yourself. I also use pears body lotion and my black glitters even though I'm kinda chocolate, not too dark, people ask me which cream I use, I tell them pears body lotion( I get cream reaction on my body from using other creams) they feel I'm lying.

Lol, kids this days don't bully each other like before. I hate my round face and my skin colour back then due to bullying.
Aww, that was some serious bullying. On my part, have never been bullied due to my skin tone. At times when I walk pass some people they tell me never to attempt bleaching, and I don't see myself ever thinking of it.

It's on NL you see some kids calling dark-skinned individuals dirty. They need to have their brains checked.

Everyone has to make a choice in Life, do you want the man to be unhappy and unsatisfied??


There are men who are desperately searching for dark-skinned females..


But you will never talk about it because you only focus on the topic of rejection so that you can judge

Not that black females aren't in demand,
but even in Bible times, it's white over black!


Genesis 6:2

That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

Some even go far to say someone has a "dirty black"
Those words would only have negative effect on someone without self-esteem.

So, skin color is the only thing a man would seek after when he wants to pick a wife?


There are black girls with no morals who are unfit for marriage, and black girls with morals who are suitable for marriage.


Which would you pick, if you were male?


It's the morals that make men search..


Black girls are defensive over nothing, probably because of inferiority complex, they're the ones who jump at any little opportunity to insult people..

They're the least accessible and approachable kind,
not because of anything apart from general attitude due to low self-esteem

Same thing goes to light skinned girls. Most of them are dirty too.

Dont depend on color..

But dark-skinned females are pretty darn dirty, ESP those Ibadan girls that wear pant for 2 weeks, then instead of washing, they turn the back and use for another 2 weeks..

Dreyl:
The rate nigerian ladies bleach their skin is so alarming, why would you bleach your God given natural skin to a different color? Are some ladies suffering from low self-esteem or inferiority complex or both? When i travelled to ghana i saw a lot of bevy of pretty ladies with dark and chocolate skin, radiating. They were so proud of their skin, i even made friends with some of them. Here in nigeria it's different, their was one pretty dark skin girl i met. that was in 2012, infact she was my friend sister, when i saw her recently in an event i couldn't recorgnise her, not until she came to meet me, mehn i was really gobsmacked because she has changed completely, and looks like a white albino, please ladies if you are guilty of bleaching your skin, you better stop it now. Black is beautiful, and moreover bleaching your skin won't make you a white woman.
Because they are foolish and stupid.Especially the yorubas
