Review Detail of TheBratQueen in The Anarchic Consort

Chinese racism never fails to cool my interest in a series. There's nothing done to change Wei Wei's bone structure, her sink is just brown. Yet, she's considered ugly with dark skin and beautiful with pale skin. Is this why skin bleaching is so popular in China? This cancerous logic can only produce self hating people and a false sense of superiority.

I have always been curious if this type of perfection really exists. To live with this type of unrealistic ideal, it must be something akin to torture

You can look up on Google how bad skin bleaching is in Asia and Africa, in fact friends and family have warned me that bleach agents are added to makeup/beauty goods without warnings on the label. So, that's how bad things are.

It’s cultural taste, in south Europe we like tanned people and consider unhealthy pale people.

No it is not. It's not cultural taste that makes people bleach their skin (which causes cancer) it is media brainwashing, which this is. This is media promoting subliminally that black and dark skinned people are less beautiful, less intelligent, less capable and etc. I'm calling it out because it affects me and people who look like me. If you don't understand that, there's no need for you to comment since it clearly doesn't affect you.

In other countries (in Europe) people also go to the solariums. Why? Because they want to have their skin tanned. Solariums also increase the cause cancer. I don’t think you can talk about that, if you don’t live in China or are Chinese.

The rudeness in which you express your thoughts it’s just a proof of how poor is your argumentation. Only frail mind can’t accept themselves and look external pretext in their suffering. I hope you will lose your wroth and find peace. There is no superior skin color, just a different taste.

Did you read before you commented or did you just vomit nonsense? If it doesn't affect you, don't worry about it. People like me don't need your approval to acknowledge what hurts us.

Why do they want tanned skin? Has it ever occurred to you that you often feel hungry after seeing a food commercial? Do you think it's a coincidence? If it is why do billions of dollars go into creating media propaganda, the answer is there. Just because you want to pretend you're not aware doesn't change anything. I'm not the only one who sees this toxic behavior, I merely pointed it out because it affects me, I'm not looking for anyone else's validation. But since you asked, yes I have talked to my friends from various parts of Asia about this and they all have similar stories of being mocked for their darker skin and I have also been there to see my friend because other Korean girls said she was too black to be Korean and dirty, she cried on my shoulders for hours and I had to talk her out of skin bleaching which she had done before because this was not a one off. Now what do you have to say? This is personal to me and I do not treat this issue lightly. Please don't assume because you're unaware of an issue that it is not a problem, thank you.

Haha this thing sounds strange to me, that’s why when I read the story I avoid to remember about their skin tones. Yes, in fact this culture is fixated with having a pale and beautiful skin, but I don’t think that is mainly because of the media. Yes, they have influence but... For example, they say that if you have a darker skin, you are poor because you work under the sun... And yeah chinese people are not the only one. Unfortunately calling them “racist” is very wrong... I do not know how to clearly explain. Because, if I may have to say, Chinese people are contradictory in absurd ways, but this contradiction may be very harmonic... err, very much different from the obvious contradiction in America and the confusion in Europe. Omg hehe I got lazy...

I agree with you that the media is largely responsible for propagating their ideals on skin color, body image, and etc., and essentially brainwashing the minds of viewers into believing what’s ‘in’ and what’s ‘not’. But I also believe that it was a matter of culture for the traditional Chinese society. In the old days, media wasn’t responsible for spreading a culture’s values, it was passed on orally and institutionally through the community as stories, marriage customs, religious beliefs, spiritual beliefs, and etc. Some things are just deeply rooted in a culture’s traditions or beliefs for reasons that can probably be tracked down, but don’t make sense to later generations. Just as some cultures believe that certain colors could only be worn by people of a certain status or that using your left hand is disrespectful and can be used to curse people (it was a taboo and some were forced to become right-handed). I think that for whatever reason the Chinese became fond of clear, white skin that they always compare to jade *rolls eyes*. Who knows, maybe it started off as a way to increase the number of suitors for their marriageable daughters and they became obsessed with that image of beauty and their elders made sure to pass that down. What I don’t like is when they now use their image of beauty to define other races and look down on them. In short, I believe for them specifically it started off as a culture and expanded to their only version of beauty that has been clearly disseminated across Asia. I’m sure, if you’ve seen Kpop idols you notice they’re all made from one mold—thin with most of them having long legs. Wow, I really ranted haha. Good day ppl✌🏽.

Scars are like a taboo for them, woman specially. When they have even a small scar even if its not in the face, however there's more meaning if it is there, the woman will be incapable of marrying. Completely. It will be miracle, luck or true love if she can. And the freckles sometimes can be a symbol of evil like a birthmark of a evil star or something similar.

Yep as an Asian, when a dark coloured girl is born the whole pathetic society becomes concern about who is gonna marry her. A boy doesn't matter or care about how he looks(even if he looks like an ape) he thinks that a girl should be fair petite. It's pathetic. And media is definitely a strong reason for this prejudice or whatever this bull**** it is
