Finally someone from Nepal is taking about it. Growing in Nepali society, sano ma I felt the same. Because ma dark tone xu, naramro xu feel hunthiyo. Thankfully growing up, i got sufficient info, confidence and self-esteem.

chess ma ni first move white kai hune rule xa... anyways, also the difference between black and white is inspired by nature, where we relate bright sunny day to happiness and safe whereas cloudy day is perceived as dull, and dark nights are unsafe. In addition, as per perceived religions, Gods are depicted bright with light emitting from them, whereas evil is shown dark. Even in literature, we say dark spots in the moon, seto chandrama ma kalo 'Daag'.

[@yutsuu2804]

I was thinking the same kala jadu 😂

[@BhawanaAcharya]

This is one of the deeply rooted stigma in most parts of world. In my case, my mom is light tone and my dad’s dark toned. I’m gahu goro. When I was small, everyone used to say “thyakka baba jasto” which I knew they meant ugly. I dont blame them as we all grew up feeding goro is ramro stuff. I had this insecurity for a long time. One thing that helped me is when one uncle commented “usko color ramro cha gahu goro “ . It was first time someone complemented on my color and it remains with me since then. After that I started feeling more confident. This all happened when I was a teenager. That taught me the power of complement. We don’t give complements in Nepal often. We should do it more often. Maybe that will help someone get over their insecurity.

[@Moonnulimbu]

Why would you think ‘thyakka baba jasto’ meant Ugly? It can be just deep rooted inside you that you subconsciously think your dad is ugly because he is darker in colour. Your dad isn’t ugly just because he is darker in colour and Just ‘gahu goro’ doesn’t mean beautiful, even your dads colour is also beautiful. Every colour is beautiful. Sorry if I sound rude. Takecare

[@Parbat1420]

No one is beautiful or ugly, we're born in a world of judgement ❤

Excellent video! Next topic should be focused on the overuse of English words while speaking Nepali "use garne", "try garne", "like Esto k", "on/off garne" and using ENGLISH phrases in between NEPALI sentences to sound more confident and educated.

[@kshitizgautam5412]

HOW ARE YOU NOWADAYS ? Are they still mocking ??

[@cadesignerpro]

Well talking about me, I am alikati white toned guy and people just used to complement me as a goro. I always used to prefer a little toned dark glossy skin in comparison to dry white skin on a women. Sooner or later the priorities itself are harmful and the concept of beauty can vary according to personal preferences. For me, skin color isn't a problem at all. However, talking about my partner or what I like leads to my choice by defult which can be either black or white. For me black just looks crazy good but I don't regret my or any other skin. I am happy that Mr. Kuikel brought something up that I have been talking for years. Many thanks!

[@ItsSB]

Loved the video and agree with it. Like the other people over here have suggested, it would be great if the topic of the next video was regarding the superiority of English language and accent in our society.

[@mysticpush]

Another commendable video!! Keep up the great work, guys! On a bit deeper level of the ‘why’ - we, humans have always associated dark as the unknown (as at night) and light or ‘fair’ as safe (as during the day). We are instinctively programmed to believe ‘dark’ is bad. But this is not absolute since a toddler doesn’t know how to discriminate between a fair or a dark skinned person, necessarily. Our brain’s desire to take the ‘shortest path’ and our world/society’s obsession for a ‘lighter’ skin have both contributed to this endemic. Hopefully, we continue to have dialogues about this (including race relations) and this will all be thing of the past, one day.

You yourself are obsessed with skin color, its so easy to decipher from your comment. Also no, maximum Pahari ko skin color is similar to North Indians. Australia aau na bro, Punjabis come to you and randomly start talking to us in Punjabi and everyone thinks we are Indian. So no we are not whiter than other South Asians, thats a big fat lie. Not every indian looks like Bihari. And even if they do it doesnt matter. Every skin is beautiful. But whole subcontinent us obsessed with whote skin. Its not a Pahari Madeshi Tamil problem like you say
