This is what hydroquinone and other whitening agents do. They make the user’s skin thinner and thinner until the person is unable to handle even basic sun exposure without severe damage. All this just to look like mockeries of whites. I say this as an Korean from Seoul, okay? Let’s not pretend this isn’t what it is.[/quote]

I am S. Korean and I don't know anyone who uses skin whitening products but I am in my 40s.  Also, I am very pale naturally with double eye lids, born that way.

Classic Asian beauty for hundreds of years have always been pale skin with double eye lids.  This is why my mother and grandmother have always used umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun and why they always told me to stay out of the sun and not tan.  It has nothing to do with "wanting to look white".  [/quote]
PP, you don't need to explain this.  The white poster clearly has an inferiority complex and has zero clue about the Asian culture, like how historically, the upper class in Asia were lighter skinned since they didn't have to toil in the sun, and so that's why Asians value  light skin, kind of like how it was in Europe prior to the 20th century.   Maybe that white poster doesn't know this part of European history.

-signed another Asian whose mother also has light skin, used a hat *all the time*, and badgered me to use a hat/sunscreen all my life.[/quote]
