at where? oh one in three in south africa. Later it said 77% in Nigeria...i'm not surprised.

Not to mention the girls who use lighter foundation to appear less dark. There are ppl who use that shyt but you wouldnt know it cause they aint that light...but it doesnt mean it isnt in their washroom drawer

Bullsht, 77% of our women do not bleach their skin. Damn near my entire family is Nigerian and I visit home pretty frequently. I've only seen a couple of sisters bleach their sht, not the majority, definitely not 8 out of 10 sisters on average like BBC are trying to suggest.

are we really having a "majority" argument now?

:rudy:

Even if they're off, its still a HUGE problem in Nigeria and elsewhere in AFrica that goes back years.

New Straits Times - Google News Archive Search

The Nigerian government has long recognized it as a problem.

In Antigua, they want to ban the products knowing it's hurting their population.

I was talking to a friend and we agreed that I should. Never got to fully enjoy that p*ssy though :leostare:
I told her she should be ashamed for these comments and she went off the edge. She cant deal with my honesty :laugh:

When you say this, do you mean that you have not noticed the skin to appear lighter on the women in question. Or do you know for fact that they do not use the products. I personally am not paying attention to the numbers but the issue itself. I was surprised when my coworker told me how much it goes on in Bangladesh and other SE Asia countries. Obviously the researchers probably have a biased sample...i doubt they went deep into the respective countries and the villages even but nonetheless to deny the problem not there (not in Nigeria but among Africans in general) is asinine. Even if its 10% that is way too much.
