As in "white", I am talking about caucasion people, not the color.

I am white and I personally don't think that white is any more beautiful than any other race. Examples - Beyonce, Halle Berry, Lucy Liu, etc....

I think that all races have beauty and not so beautiful. I think the media, (tv ads, print ads) generally focus on whites in their ads because that is the majority of the population.

So to answer your question - sure, white is considered beautiful - along with other races/ethnicities.

White projects purity, cleanliness, and neutrality. Doctors don white coats, brides traditionally were white gowns and a white picket fence surrounds a safe and happy home.

How the color white effects us mentally and physically
* aids mental clarity
* encourages us to clear clutter or obstacles
* evokes purification of thoughts or actions
* enables fresh beginnings

Light shaded skin is beautiful to those who like light shaded skin. Other shades are attractive or beautiful to those who prefer those shades. " de gustibus non est desputatum "
You can't argue about taste. If someone likes a person with lilly white skin, you can't convince him that he shouldn't.
Personally, I like brown skin, but I don't care for ******* features like the big lips, wide nose, frizzy hair, etc. but that's just personal preference.
Why are more white skin girls featured on magazine covers ? Because of the number of Caucasian readers.
On Ebony covers they're all dark. Same reason.
