In Mali, there is a trend of beauty amongst the women. If a women in Mali does not follow the trend, they are considered second hand citizens. "What's this trend" you might ask. "What makes the trend so salacious that so many women are trying to accomplish. That trend is the attempt to embellish by making the skin pallid. They do this by bleaching the skin.
According to dermatologists, over the half of the women in Mali have done this. Just like constantly eating hamburgers isn't salubrious, bleaching the skin is considered a very bad choice. The process is painful and causes blemishes. As Malian doctor Ali Gindo says," They are just burning themselves, It's painful and it's awful."
Yet, why are the Malian women doing this? The answer, with a certain Malian singer. This certain Malian singer bleached her skin, creating a mesmeric effect. However, such results have not been achieved. Malian Men consider bleaching not very beautiful.
I have to agree with the Malian men. I don't really see how bleaching the skin is beautiful. Is being beautiful really worth the pain? I don't think so. It is weird how people think this is beautiful. I think that it would be good if the Malian women just stopped. Bleaching the skin is just creepy.
