Why the stereo type - Have you watched the veneta cuicine ( did i get the spelling right?) - Its an animated ad - with a jingle going " its a funday cooking in a veneta cucine ......" the maid is shown as a black woman while the rest of the family is of a different colour - How did anyone approve this ad? Yeah as a country we are not so touchy about racism, but I think this was in poor taste
I read some article which had brought a similar observation - The Singapore girl on the Singapore airlines represents the ethnic look and feel of the average woman in Singapore, but on none of the Indian airlines would you see the air hostesses seem like the average woman in this country - mostly fair woman is what you would see. No wonder " Fair & Lovely" has a large market!!!
