Feminist Fridays #32: Slim and White Makes a Girl's Future Bright?

Black bad; white, good. Fat bad; thin good. This is commonly drilled to Asian girls, when it comes to how they should aspire to look. On today's episode, we speak to three feminists, Lee Chwi Lynn, Ineza Roussille and Tina Carmillia, and get their thoughts on beauty standards imposed on women.
