- The most popular look in America is “bearded, masculine, and white.”
- In Brazil, “Germanic features” with tan skin is considered ideal
- According to the census, South Africa is 79.6% black African and only 8.9% white… yet over 77% of Men’s Health South Africa and GQ South Africa covers in 2014 featured white models
- Nigerians in their early 20s viewed masculinity as culturally superior to femininity
- Influenced by their ultra-popular soap operas, Turkish men have become obsessed with body hair removal
- South Koreans “mix lean muscular bodies with soft features and often wear makeup” – like their K-Pop superstars
- Skin lightening creams are growing in popularity in the Indian male beauty market and are even being endorsed by bollywood stars
