thast just it.. i find that by the asian standards.. to look beautiful..is to look or have more of the "western" feature.
I dont mean that its my standards..but i find thats how the media protrays it..and this can also be seen in the plastic surgery trends in asia as well as cosmetics. THe girl has to have big eyes w/ eyelids.. nose that's more "western"... lighter skin.
Majority of the asians that do plastic surgery is on their eyelids..and on their nose. Whitening creams r BIG in asia.
thank you for the response Galini. i was just curious because i have heard a lot of people say things like, "she's pretty for an asian" and i always thought of it as a backhanded compliment in a way.
Wanting to have pure white skin has long been something women strived for, wayyyyy before the west became dominant. Many East Asians are born with naturally white skin, so it wasn't as if Asian people suddenly got the idea that having white skin would be akin to being more like a Caucasian. I personally think that in places like China, where there is a greater diversity in terms of physical appearances, having a tall nose, double-eyelids, etc. don't seem to be such a huge deal in terms of being known as a beauty. Whereas in countries like Korea and Japan, where looks are more homogenous (small country, long history of inbreeding), the beautiful ones are those who don't have the typical characteristics shared by the rest of the population.
I'm just speaking from personal opinion though, but I find that when westerners (caucasians) judge an Asian girl, they don't really see the flat nose or the single-lidded eyes. It's like they're a lot more lenient because they are so used to having the double lidded eyes and prominent noses themselves. They just don't think it's a big deal, and the asian features are not seen as flaws at all. In fact, sometimes the girls are actually more beautiful because of them.
