[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dont get into the most superficial job in the world and complain that they want to change your looks. [/quote] +1 This isn't about race. It's about how your appearance matters more in certain jobs than in others. There are plenty of great jobs where her looks wouldn't have been as much of an issue. [/quote] So by that logic, only people who fit a certain model of beauty should work in those fields. Those who don't fit this model need not apply? And who decides what is beautiful? Acceptable? Based on what values? What criteria? If that criteria includes a perceived culturally normative standard of beauty based on Eurocentric features then yes, racism is at play. [/quote]
