elmo 2,760 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Anyone else find it offensive when they hear comments like: "Your skin looks better if you have a lighter skintone". I don't get why luhan feels these types of comments are ok especially when he has fans from all over the world with ALL types of skin tones. What do you guys think? cr: http://oshzt.tumblr.com/post/80273061409/members-who-have-the-best-skin-in-exo-m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keudaeyeoooo~ 498 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Lol, in Asia yes. I would love to get a slight natural tan in summer time, but no such thing. Everyone has different beauty ideals, it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almondandlime 6,854 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 They're all ridiculously pale tho. Anyways, people are allowed to have opinions.

Nekci 1,995 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I mean, it's Asia's beauty standards. Not that it's not offensive, but it's what a lot of them have grown up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lepidoptery 2,917 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Q&A at a fansign promoting Nature Republic, right? Which is a cosmetics company. I suppose the point here is to tell their fans that they can all "correct" their objectionable-like-Tao's skin tone with makeup, so buy lots. >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~ b l a s i a n ~ 3,354 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I guess you have never heard a Chinese person speak before. Before you go saying he's racist, which he's not, you should understand that his culture and race has conditioned him in thinking that way as with most Southeast Asians. It would be racist if he said "darker skin tones are ugly/shouldn't count" but he didn't. The Chinese really love pale skin and they think that dating a person with that skin tone is a blessing for their children and families. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
