South Asian guy here, first of all, I don't think liking a particular race is a massive issue unless of course you exclusively date that race and/or view any other race as inferior.
My main reason for joining this thread is to highlight certain problems that exist in the South Asian community - self-loathing is very accepted and encouraged CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY LIGHTER SKIN MEANS YOU ARE MORE BEAUTIFUL IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME.
I am personally a fair-skinned South Asian - other races don't think I'm South Asian and other South Asians refuse to believe that I am indeed South Asian but I still don't understand why so much prejudice exists in my community.
We as South Asians NEED to take a stand here, we look at other races for beauty standards and end up self-hating - we need to recognise that our cultures and our people are just as good as any other, because at the end of the day, race should never be an issue - we are all humans after all.
Peace^^
