No more crazy whitening trends like salmon sperm soap and gluta injections. With skin color defining beauty in Thai culture for so long, the dominance of the whitening craze era looks like it is facing a serious challenge now that a local magazine has set itself a goal to promote a natural, sun-kissed complexion. TAN, a new bilingual magazine founded by renowned Thai musician and rapper Joey Boy, will hit the racks Tuesday as it promotes the beach and travel culture.

Excellent and good to see.
I had dinner last night with two of my Muay Thai trainers and families. The two year old daughter of one has surprisingly dark skin, no doubt aided by her running around on the family steading without a care in the world. I hope she grows up in a different Thailand where she isn't judged by skin tone.

Sunkissed skin on Thai ladies is natural and beautiful, pasty white aided by beauty concotions some containing arsenic are not.

...and small breasted women want large ones, large breasted women want small ones, the quest for what is perceived as 'beautiful' is not restricted to skin colour. Being happy with what you've got is the key, forget stick insects, what magazines and advertising tell you to look like, buy and wear.
Beauty is always from within.

Failure from the start, why buy a lotion to make you look like a poor uneducated rice farmer that you despise associating with, yet claim to be Thai and have respect for all your country it's culture and it's people?
That's what my mind said when I pressed the HiSo Thai mode button.
We be better than them tanned rice pickin niggaz.
They don't even look tanned on the advert either so its a fail either way.
Thai scrotes with tattoos is all I see there.
My original post was better but I accidently closed the browser like a nob, so this 2nd rate post will have to do.

When you jog down the beach and some fisherman tells you to slow down love, you'll give yourself two black eyes, then yes.

Looks like an interesting magazine. I just spent two weeks on Koh Samui and loved it!
Tan skin/white skin.... I don't understand this fascination for wanting to be something you are not. Yes, I like a little tan, but generally am happy with my skin. Dark skin is also beautiful and I feel bad when I see Thais and even Asians covering up all the time to not get a tan.

Yeah, but not all people think that way. Wanting to look your best is a good thing I believe, but yes I agree that too many people look at the media/mags and want to look like this unrealistic ideal.
