[quote=JABAROOTOO,233046]It's more to do with keeping the skin white. I've just come back from northwest Sichuan where some of the men were almost black and proudly shirtless dispite the almost freezing temperatures but many people consider this colour skin to belong to the poorer class of citizen. It has been and still is fashionable for the 'upper class' if I can use that term to bleach thier skin. Just today in high 20's almost 30 degree temperatures I asked two ladies in long sleeves and jackets if they were not a little hot. Thier reply 'of course not....' One of them had skin I colour of chocolate that I would envied, rich and brown from years of working in the outdoors. My fair skin burns after just 15 minutes in intense sun.[/quote]
