An observation i made from seeing couples on the street is that
many of them fall into these categories:
(1) tanned guy + fair girl
(2) tanned guy + girl with normal skin tone
(3) tanned guy + tanned girl
(4) both guy and girl with normal skin tone
(5) fair guy + girl with normal skin tone
(6) fair guy + fair girl
normal = neither tanned nor fair
I seldom see no. (5) and (6) is rather rare. For many couples,
the bf always seems to be darker than the gf or at least won't be
fairer than her. Just wondering could this be due to the
long-standing stereotype Asian value (specifically sg chinese) that
guys prefer fair girls and girls prefer tanned guys? Or perhaps due
to the fact that there are more normal skin tone/tanned people
compared to fair people in the population?
Anyway, a question for the ladies, will you mind dating a guy
who is much fairer than you (if you are the rather tanned type) or
a little fairer than you (if you are of normal skin tone)?
(Assuming the fair guy does not look weak but is athletic type,
just that his skin just cannot be tanned)
interesting qn, i never really think abt this in detail, but
subconsciously i prefer the guy to be darker than me.
in any case, the hotter guys are ususally abit dark
