Re:hamidm#8

[............ the fact of the matter is that -as you have so eloquently stated before- white (milky, i think you call it) is beautiful and black is ... well, black is black .......]

So whats all that baloney that you guys throw at us about Islam being color blind and the Prophet treating all races equally?

When we brahmins protect our white skin via the caste system, you guys pile on us all the time....

Re: # 20

tahmed,

i know hamid is joking, thanks! :)

#19 saminasha: dont take hamidm at his word. He just likes to annoy people by talking about white bread being better than brown bread or black bread.

Re: # 17

right tahmed, i was just trying to figure out whether the Qu`ran supports hierarchies based on color (because we know in some ways, the concept of race is meaningless)...to my knowledge, it has not....

#17 I know samina more intimately than Hamid....

Shah2: are you saying that hamidm is stuck in a traffic jam?

``Now our pakistan men and women go to usa and marry wrong colored (white race) people``

um, was wondering where in the Qu`ran was it written that there is a wrong and right colored race of people?

Re: # 8

lolz. well said.

Ahmedmadani and Hamidm sahib – The standard of beauty and power has been ingrained in our minds thanks to being colonized until only a few decades ago. By white men. Yes it is true that being a white male in today’s world is an invaluable asset. You can be of average smarts, but people in East Asia, South Asia and Africa will treat you like royalty. In corporate world, you will have to exert less effort to prove your mantle than a similarly skilled brown skinned boy or even a white woman.

So if you are suggesting that we do away with undesirable traits like dark skin tone via surgery and other courses that new technology has afforded us, then may I suggest that we also find a cure for feminine specie as well. Women, regardless of whether they are white or black, earn far less than a man in ALL societies, including European and American........and in many eastern cultures they are considered a drain on resources.

Wouldn’t you agree then that Indian men are following through with your line of thought by not only selecting to mate with only fair skinned women, but also eliminating weaker sex in favor of stronger sex?

Let there be only white men in this world......for they are the ones who are truly blessed. The rest of us, including white women, are here to serve them.

.......... this should solve the problem:




`Embryo Bank` Stirs Ethics Fears

A Texas company has started producing batches of ready-made embryos that single women and infertile couples can order after reviewing detailed information about the race, education, appearance, personality and other characteristics of the egg and sperm donors.

The Abraham Center of Life LLC of San Antonio, the first commercial dealer making embryos in advance for unspecified recipients, was created to help make it easier and more affordable for clients to have babies that match their preferences, according to its founder.

Re: # 7
Mr.Malik natural things are not shameless but it is wrong to say like that it is socially not correct in hypocrite world.
Now will you keep in mind being equal its better to be fair. Now I think peole can give all high thinking talks , people must be watched in their preference in life means marriage related things. Now colorcomplexion is overpowering thing. I have been told by people who had gone to usa and africa even dark women hope children are little lighter so thay have better life. And mothers love for children is greatest and pure.
Even people prefer white cat than dark cat and dark cat is considerd as evil cat. White cat can be seen in dark and they look good. I have two cats both white as milk. And people have asked me if they can white cat babies. I have to tell them I am not breeder of cats . I have fixed female cat so she keeps her beauty and has not to suffer and have litters one after other.
Now tell me any of our big well to powerful men and women marry darker spouces. Now unfortunately women have to make compromise and marry dark as otherwise they will be killed by relatives. Only men and women marry darker spouce if they are quite rich or famous and very very beautiful. Now if you are beautiful and dark you are photogenic in black and white photography. Obviously photographer must be artist rather than technician.Now there are extremely handsome men and women who are dark. Once somebody published here beautiful picture some indian activist Nandita Das she is dark as coal but she was best picture of female ethos. Now our pakistan men and women go to usa and marry wrong colored (white race) people. Most marry ugly white person but they will never married dark skinned African man or woman as Prof . Masadi explained many times they are oppressed people as general people have come to conclusion dark color is not good. Now if Imaran Khan or Mr.Rajiv Gandhi had married real african dark woman there would hardly be admiration for both them and their wives but contempt. Now cinema producer is putting money on line so he knows what is liked so they choose to make all people as much white as possible. Did you note most bad characters are dark skinned and rough looking.
Every man wants to marry their daughter to little man and everybody becomes happy if man is fairer than woman. Generally its quite easy for whiter man and woman to get married than dark being all equal.
Fortunately now modern high tech in this matter will solve problems as people can brighten skins as desired in next 30 years.
Now there is something wrong to apply color and appear fairer? Also its business and people are employed. I think people should be allowed do whatever they want so they feel they look better. Now I am old fashioned person but even I had to all my daughter lipstick, compromise.

a case for euthanasia


ahmedmadani sahib,

well said!....... all these people bit*%ing and moaning about the universally accepted standards of beauty are lazy and ugly people who are not willing to put in the hard work required to improve their looks and miserable lives .......... next thing you know, they will be claiming that fat is beautiful and women with moustaches should be allowed to appear in public .......

......... the fact of the matter is that -as you have so eloquently stated before- white (milky, i think you call it) is beautiful and black is ... well, black is black ........ i remember many years ago when my mother saw an african-american for the first time she clucked her tongue, shook her head sadly and said,`` becharay, allah taala nay in logon kay saath kitna zulum kiya hai`` ........ she was a kind hearted woman and really felt bad for people who had been treated so unfairly by god ..........

........ but now that we have chemicals and lasers and all sorts of science available to correct god`s shoddy handiwork, we should do what we can ......... most civilized people are doing it - millions and millions of chinese are getting their eyes fixed, most african american women have their hair straightened (can you think of any african american celebrity with kinky hair?), fat people are getting liposuction, women with moustaches are getting laser treatments, most men (other than desis) get their ear and nasal hair removed, people born with the mike tyson nose are opting for the nicole kidman look, flat chested women are taking advantage of the ``buy one get one free`` offers by plastic surgeons ............ and why not ! ......... there is no virtue in looking ugly if you can do something about it .........

.......of course there are some people, specially our less fortunate neighbors who live on the wrong side of the border, who are beyond repair ............. they make a good case for euthanasia .........
