Fairness Cream? Seriously?
Looking through the Bangalore newspaper last Thursday, I came across a 1/2 page ad for "Fairness Cream". On the ad was a picture of a very light skinned Indian man holding a jar of cream. "Whiter in 7 days". Seriously? I asked at work, and I was told by my colleagues that it is "very popular here". Bleach your skin so you can be more "white"??? That's completely messed up. I took a picture of the ad, but that is locked on my my XD card (so links here and here). "Fairness Cream" = "White Man cream". Unbelievable.

Based on the title, I thought this would be a post about a skin treatment that makes you take a more balanced and thoughtful stance during a debate.
ReplyDeleteQ:How did he do in last weekend's debate?
ReplyDeleteA:Splendidly, his arguments were point on, he spoke eloquently and passionately. You could say that he creamed his opponent.
