In that it comes from a place if self hatred. Wether bronzing or bleaching, it comes from a want to meet unrealistic beauty standards and a disdain from ones own self.
Of course some people will laugh at people who bronze their skins, but get sad when people bleach their skin. This is because they are "the other".
Fuck all that bullshit. Self-hatred is self-hatred and it's never funny, unless you're a sociopath.
Don't get me wrong, there is a growing trend of bleaching. But the way you said it was spicy so I responded with Charlemagne (who himself has been accused of skin bleaching).
