Markets are always made after demand. If there’s a great demand for something, it will be made. It’s all about profit anyway. The most popular bandages are usually those with Mickey Mouse or rainbow unicorns actually.

If only a small part of people in a country look a certain way, there won’t be a lot of those products around. And if there are, but that group doesn’t buy a lot of those products, for whatever reason, the product won’t be around.

I have never seen a bandage for freckled people , for example. Those really pale, freckled gingers for example. Maybe it would work better in some areas of the British Isles? I don’t know.

Bollywood, now that’s racist. A culture that’s pushing girls into bleaching their skin with deadly chemicals to look white enough to reach stardom, in a predominantly non-white area of the world, even. How stupid is that? But those products are highly popular- because of the demand. And the mothers who encourage their girls to look whiter at any cost, are they not racist?

If you see a market that no one is making into opportunity, you should do something about it. Become an entrepreneur. There’s someone who made a hair dresser salon in Sweden for “afro hair" and they are highly successful. There was a demand. White Swedes are not upset about being excluded from that salon. Why should they be?

Look for opportunities, but why complain so much about it? There’s already so much division and prejudice between people.
