[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Olive skin is a racist term. [/quote]

:roll: [/quote]

It is offensive for "white" people to describe other people as "olive" or "almond-eyed. "[/quote]

What??? Olive skinned people are white. Olive skin is a trait where white people tan nicely and don’t have pink undertones. Like Italians.

I’m pale but have olive undertones. No one would call me olive skinned though since I’m so pale. [/quote]

This. Also, I am a white person with almond shaped eyes. It is a compliment regardless of race -- they are my best feature.[/quote]

What an ignorant thing to say when, for centuries, women of Asian descent have been sold tools and techniques to “fix” their eyes to achieve a more hooded, rounded look. Go on YouTube and you’ll find tutorials to this day.

Honestly, the ignorance. [/quote]

I think you are the ignorant one. A person saying "I have almond shaped eyes and I like them" is not racist, regardless of their race. People are allowed to like their own facial features. Asian people should also not feel pressured to change their eyes to look less Asian, obviously. [/quote]
