There should be a command center for people like this. Let's throw them in jail and melt away the keys. The country is experiencing enough insecurity as it is and you want to add your own evil to it, you should burn for eternity for that.

FoodRe: Who Remembers This Primary School Days Method Of Cooking 'Concoction Rice'? by Sterope(f): 10:06am On Jun 05, 2022
I have been using fresh tumeric in food before it became popular. I used it quite a lot in sauces. The day I tried the powder, I hated the food. The powdered taste is very different from the fresh one. You must have used other spices in overwhelmingly quantity before I can eat the food.


Mariangeles:
What food did you use it in? cheesy
You probably went with the hype and used too much.

When it comes to tumeric, a little goes a long way because it's got this herby smell that is not too pleasant, and its colour can be strong.
A hint of it can give a beautiful colour to your foods without imposing its flavour. Including eggs.

Dry herbs and spices usually have different aroma compared to when they're fresh.
I like them dry.
I don't like the smell of fresh turmeric.

Are you picky when it comes to food? You seem so. cheesy

FoodRe: Who Remembers This Primary School Days Method Of Cooking 'Concoction Rice'? by Sterope(f): 8:14am On Jun 05, 2022
The first time I used tumeric powder in food, I binned the food.

With herbs and spices, if it is not fresh it can't be better.


Mariangeles:
You can use tumeric for your yellow rice (turmeric rice), Nigerian fried rice, fresh tomato jellof rice (not party jollof).

For your rice, use dried powdered one (the aroma smells better) and use it sparingly too because a little goes a long way.

I disagree. People are not stupid. Modern day is beginning to take esteem issue way too far with the excuses.

Everyone has one or two things they are insecure about. It doesn't mean we are not going to use our God given brain to undergo BBL in Nigeria.

FashionRe: Dear Men, Stop Bleaching! by Sterope(f):
That is not the only reason for bleaching but it is a very good reason to stay off bleaching


Enskynelson:
The difference I mean is, are they not all signs of low self esteem? The only reason I will ever take for someone not to bleach is if it will affect your health. Every other reason seems weak as most people are guilty.
FashionRe: Dear Men, Stop Bleaching! by Sterope(f): 5:30pm On May 30, 2022
A massive difference. You can always take those off and unless you are buying from an unregulated market, they don't have a long term effect on health.
Enskynelson:
But what is the difference between them and those that fix nails, fix eye lashes, fix bum, wear high heels, wear wigs? They all belong to the same category and that means virtually all women have low self esteem.
FashionRe: Dear Men, Stop Bleaching! by Sterope(f): 5:28pm On May 30, 2022
Bleaching is not a way of correcting sun effect. Good gracious, that is not what goes on their minds. There are a million documentaries on bleaching, there are people we know that bleach. Their reasons are everything we suspect minus sun effect.

Babies don't retain their natural colours even in the abroad. They get darker as they grow older.


Enskynelson:
Bleaching: Another Perspective

I am a lover of naturalness and I advocate seriously against skin bleaching. But a perspective people are missing is this. Many Africans were not born 'that black.' Many when they were born were fair-skinned until the Sun came and turned Mary into black Maria; the once-fair skin became charcoal overtime and before you know it, we have nothing natural left of our colour. At this point, all people remember about your God-given colour is the Sun-flaked skin and your shaded look forgetting your God-given colour is the one you were born with.

The truth of the matter is, a naturally dark skin can be good and enviable if kept away from the harsh rays of the Sun because it is a very delicate part of the body. My little exposition should help all those criticizing bleaching just because they feel it is a way of not being contended or proud of your 'natural look', because there is nothing natural about a Sun-burnt skin afteral. Remember, a child when born is not this black in Africa and if we were to grow under a more conducive weather, many will not think of bleaching.


All I see about most reasons from anti-bleaching advocates is hypocrisy. And here are the reasons. You first of all ignorantly call a Sun-shaded skin ‘natural’ and it doesn’t just end there. You claim they are not proud of their natural colour, yet you fix hairs, eyes lashes, fix eyeballs, fix bums, and you do make-up that make you look unnatural. Bleaching, toning etc could be a way of correcting the effect of the Sun on the skin and reverting it back to the natural way but what’s up with scraping all your eyebrows and using eye pencil to draw a line, what are you trying to make natural with your outrageous makeup? What is natural about the hair and nails you fix?


My suggestion is that, instead of just standing up to criticize bleaching all because it makes you feel people are not proud of their 'natural' colour, please do more research so that we can prevent more babies from being blackened by the tropical Sun.

Finally, for all of you bleaching guys, you better start sharing this on your wall and Whatsapp groups. At least, I have finally given you a reason to beat many blasting you for this.
