It did work on his electorate....

The candidate of the common men against the fancy liberals from the East coast...

Love or hate him but he was a master manipulator...

Does anyone know why Japanese women are so much fairer skin than Japanese men? I find the sexual dichromatism rather startling.

Make-up? There is a relationship between white skin and beauty in Japan...

The geikos /geishas use white powder and they used to represent the perfect Japanese beauty canon...

The same relationships used to exist in Western Europe....Pale women were perceived as superior to their poorer counterparts forced to work outdoors and most likely having darker skins dur to the exposure to the elements...
