It is true. I've been told that I have good features only if my skin was fairer in India. I couldn't find any lotion without fairness lightening in it.

The west is much more accepting of diversity. As a desi stripper in America, I make good money from all ethnicities except desi fobs. I've modeled too but India would not hire me because I have dark skin. When I was in Mumbai I literally saw ads for actresses asking for half Indian half white ethnicity.

The freshers or desi fobs from certain regions of india who come in to the strip clubs are so obsessed with white girls especially blondes that it is frankly embarrassing. I just feel embarrassed for them. They make it so obvious. But chill pls. It's only 10pm and they aren't drunk yet.

It's ok to have a type. I have no issues with a desi guy who finds white girls attractive. Different people have different interests. 3 of my customers love dark skinned or foreign women and go for me and black, dark Hispanic girls. Nothing wrong in finding a blonde or a milf, younger, asian attractive but there is no need to try to make others feel inferior about that. It's one thing to find white girls attractive and another to see getting a white partner as a status symbol. It's sad.

One black dancer told me that she's never been so thankful for being black because those Indian guys ignore her.

In a way I'm happy that I'm not on the top priority for freshers. Why? Most of them are cheap and aggressive/won't respect boundaries.

I like to give everyone the benefit of doubt but the moment I sense that they're cheap, demanding, and disrespectful, I walk away and ignore them. And move on to other customers. I had good desi customers too.

I do see a pattern after doing this for a while.
