[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why I don't want my kid in an all white school.  Whites make up the large majority of the population plus they dominate the media.  It's very hard not too look at them as the standard of beauty when that's all that's on display.  [/quote]

I agree. Don't get me wrong, white people can be amazing and incredible. I'm a brown lady married to my wonderful dh who happens tp be white. I just wonder sometimes if the reason I found him attractive was because of media brain washing. Prince Charming is White, Mr. Darcy is White, etc. When you grow up in an Indian culture, we are exposed to a lot of western media. Through that we are exposed to a lot of white media. Every rom com love interest is a white guy. Every boy band member is white. So we naturally grow up to associate white guys with love and romance.

Now, of course I love my husband irregardless of his skin color. But it makes me sad to think that there are other cultures and people out there that we are missing on because we are so brain washed to admire white ones.[/quote]
