Review Detail of Bhy85 in Strike Back, Proud Goddess!
Review detail
I found the book full of racism. The girl was discriminated against for being from a poor background with no education and her physical features. She in turn discriminates against others. Apparently, “black” skin is ugly. Now why would I eventually waste my money reading a book written by someone who thinks having a darker skin means you’re ugly?

im not supporting this by any means but in countries like china, japan, korea etc darker skin is considered uglier. it’s a social norm, just racism embedded into culture. that’s why reading these types of novels, the heroines are described to be having “white pale skin” so maybe the author incorporated the social circumstances. i wouldn’t know if that’s what happened but sadly in east asian countries darker does equal uglier.

I wouldn't even consider that racism. It's just... a preference really. You can dislike black skin color as a sexual preference without being racist you know.

That you can actually say this confidently says a lot about you and your background. In terms of the “sexual” preference you mentioned, it’s either you like men, women or both. The fact that you feel you’re justified to “dislike” dark skin as opposed to just not attracted is quite... 🤦🏽♀️ keep justifying your ignorance and continue disliking people based on their colour. It’s not your fault

Yes and keep playing the victim card as if you've suffered every tragedy in the world. Don't worry it's not your fault, it just shows a lot about your background. The short and long end of it is, while I don't know what's going on in the novel since I haven't read it, I see a lot of people yelling that just thinking darker skin colors are ugly is racist. It isn't. If people think dark skinned people are ugly, that's just their preference. Does it actually mean they're ugly? No. However, they're justified in their belief because it's still a preference in the end. Now if they look down on and discriminate against people with darker skin color just because they have dark skin color, then you could claim racism. That's not a preference anymore, that's just being an asshole. However, most of these comments, in the way they're framed make it seem like Asians are just naturally racist toward black people. They aren't. Stop claiming racism against everything. Once again, this is in no relation to the novel since I haven't read it and I'm just purely looking through the comment section with everyone claiming Asians are raised to be racist. Just because Asians don't like darker skin tones as a form of beauty, DOES NOT MAKE THEM RACIST.

You haven’t even read the novel and you actually accuse someone of playing the victim card, i read Chinese novels where the mc becomes whiter and thus prettier but i have no problem with that as i understand that it is embedded in their culture, but in this book the they directly tied the aspect of being black and ugly to Africans which I cannot accept. You claim that someone thinking all dark skinned people are ugly is preference, but no that is just plain ignorance, and yes the fact that you could spout all that confidently says a lot about your background of ignorance.

Yeah whatever, believe what you want. People have the right to dislike something as a sexual preference. It just shows the type of bubble you live in where you think everyone should think like you or they're a bigot. I've met your type before. Not going there again. Keep forcing your objective ideals on others. Good day.

I can see you are pretty staunch in your beliefs, that enables you to defend racism expressed in a book you haven’t read. Talking to you is useless, hopefully you gain more life experiences that can affect your thinking pattern. P.s. Having sexual preferences is different from holding a stereotypical opinion on a group of people in general.
