It should be completely banned, the way things have been done seems more hypocritical.Moonyhttp://moonstruckbabblings.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8234679178553337123.post-1242079202698091952011-09-01T09:08:54.782+05:302011-09-01T09:08:54.782+05:30@The Knife - I have my own views on the anti corru...@The Knife - I have my own views on the anti corruption drive. Maybe that's fodder for another post.<br /><br />@WSW - The tanning thing is slightly different, isn't it? White women want a tan b/c they find dark skin beautiful, whereas there is a deep-seated feeling of racism and non-whites being inferior to white people behind Indians' fascination with light skin.<br /><br />And yes, market for fairness creams is significantly bigger than that for any other personal care product.Scarletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08909702073286784203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8234679178553337123.post-70779754831018576662011-08-31T19:08:39.145+05:302011-08-31T19:08:39.145+05:30I know!!

And I have seen some variant of "whitening" product with most of the so called "feminist" and "uppah" class ladies as well. One of the days I read a BBC (or some other foreign media)report expressing shock at south asian fascination for whitening products-felt like pointing out the shelves of self tanners stocked in developed western countries.<br />Every one has a different aspirations and these corporations are catering to it.WSWhttp://www.wannabesuperwoman.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8234679178553337123.post-74769381011491526832011-08-27T14:40:06.963+05:302011-08-27T14:40:06.963+05:30and all the people here on the anti-corrpution dri...and all the people here on the anti-corrpution drive have of course never taken or given a bribeKalyan Karmakarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14552556294198718249noreply@blogger.com
