Let's not jump to conclusions now brehs...

Maybe it was to avoid getting skin cancer.

Nah I talked to a woman from Vietnam about this. She said she doesn't understand the obsession with tanning in America because where she is from people try to avoid darkening their skin at all costs.

@the cac mamba @The Real

You see??? No issue with this usage whatsoever!

Back to the article, it even says that the new Ms. America would probably be told that she's too dark if she lived in India.

For those of you that forgot what she looked like?

India has a different perception of what dark is :manny:

Somewhat off topic - I don't know what emotion :skip: is supposed to convey, but I never ever EVER question its usage ... every time I see it, it's used correctly


This shiit is cray ........ I was thinking I was going to see a dark skin Dravidian looking chick, dark as the darkest Sudanese ....... but this chick is brown, even light brown ...... :damn: ...they trying to suck all the pigmentation out of folks ..... IF SHE IS CONSIDERED TO DARK ...... :wow:
