Colorism: it exits and it matters to some if not many!
[QUOTE=TheCane;2930623]My friend, it has [B]everything[/B] to do with skin color when some guy at the door won't let you in solely based on the way your skin is (or requires some payment in advance). That's the very definition of "colorism", and it happens all too often in Thailand where you aren't judged by the contents of your individual character, but by the color of your skin. It's all too common in Thailand.[/QUOTE]You are keeping it one hundred up in here [B]The Cane[/B]. You have to been living in a cave to not know that colorism play a HUGE role in Thailand when it comes to preferences and beauty standards. I see it among Thais themselves. Girls often describe themselves by skin color on Thai Friendly. They only would be doing that in order to market themselves correctly to make sure they are not rejected by the many individuals that play into the color bias because of their natural backgrounds developed in the of origins countries they are traveling from.
[B]I even see it being mentioned by posters here[/B] Now, everyone is allowed to have their preferences. Simply acknowledge that they have biases. Own it!
