Discussing race on a forum of politically correct people is interesting. Everyone says what they think should be said yet they don't realize these questions are asked for a reason.
I don't even know what politically correct means.

Why do certain women wear horse hair or hair from the head of someone from Malaysia/China/India?

Granted, most white women don't meet the standard of beauty either, particularly in the west. But apparently their features are generally most desirable.

And check out magazines that cater to MEN and show what MEN want to see. There are plenty of beautiful non Caucasian women who could be ranked, but that's not what men want to see. Men want to see Candice Swanepoel, not Hyori Lee.
Why do people tan?

Why are some women trying to get full, pouty lips?

Why are certain women now trying to reshape their bodies (their behinds) to mimic the body shape of certain other women?

I'm think Maxim and FHM, not necessarily Playboy or Penthouse.
Yes......magazines edited by white men that cater to the overwhelmingly white general public. Big deal.

they milk her anymore since she's a prune), but for the most part white women
are universally desired.
Useless token. Prune. You kill me. I'm about 99% sure that, to use a bad mixed metaphor, you couldn't carry Halle Berry's bra strap.

The hair color (variety), skin color (variety), features (again, more variety)
makes them attractive to a wide variety of men.
You can find that in women of any race. Do you think Halle Berry looks anything like Lupita Nyong'o?

Couldn't be because they feel, well, inadequate, could it?

Frankly, I don't want you to give any response at all, because everything you say reveals an unlimited, deep vein of ignorance.

Did you really just say white women have a variety of skin tones? Pale, fair, olive. And then of course tan or orange.. If your really going to use that argument that white women cater to other races because of the variety in all of those things then i have to disagree. Granted white women do have a wide range of hair color and eye colors compared to other races, but that's it.

Black women have more skin complexion variety than any race of women(if we are going to go there).

But really this is moot. Based on your attempts to prove white women are more beautiful than other groups, your true colors are starting to reveal. It's not about you not being politically correct, you're just ignorant. Everything you've said thus far is either without evidence, or based on stereotypes.

I'm guessing and hoping that this is really your opinion and that you really don't assume that most men or people feel the way you do.

They tan for a Mediterranean look, not to look black (contrary to what black women like to argue/claim)

Keep telling yourself that. If it makes you, as a black woman, feel better. That's why this question is being asked. Then cool!

I'm well aware of everything we are discussing, but nice try.

Next time I'll try to give a colorful PC response

I'd hate to offend the sensitive again. I know liberals hate when anyone disagrees with them
