Dusky

An appreciative western term for a woman of south asian descent but with a distinctive skin tone.

While used interchangably with nubian, ebony or mulatta, the sheer beauty and peculiarity of the tone begs that a new definition be awarded and emphasized (as follows);

Similar in concept to a mulatta but with a more darkly orange lustre, strictly dark eyes and hair, minimized tendancy of curls, with higher incidence of wavy or straight instead.

E.g. Asha Saini, Pratyusha Pilla, Sharon Muthu, Nicole Faria, Melinda Shankar, Bipasha Basu, Nandita Das, Freida Pinto.

That girl is one fine Dusky.

Dusky (admin: replace previous entry,thanks)

An appreciative western term for a woman of south asian descent with a distinctive skin tone. While sometimes interchanged with nubian, ebony or mulatta, delimitation from these ought to be enouraged due to the marked difference of their skin.

Similar in concept to a mulatta but with a more darkly orange lustre / tint, strictly dark eyes and black hair, wavy or straight rarely, if ever curly.

Note: latina ought not to be classed as dusky because latinas are strictly south american.

Examples include: Pratyusha Pilla, Sharon Muthu, Melinda Shankar, Asha Saini.
