It's really not a big deal to me. People can have their owns preferences....
but me? If you're attractive then that's that...skin color doesn't make you attractive IMO.

My last boyfriend had dark brown skin and my current boyfriend is half Irish half cuban so as you can see, I don't discriminate

Skin color is highly overrated..people don't seem to care about intelligence or personality anymore.

Whats the use of dating somebody who is attractive but really unintelligent and really boring?

, + 1 for you

but for real thats real talk,

honestly if I found someone who is pretty, smart, got common sense and is a dark brown/ caramel and i would be just as happy as being with a red bone.

You and people like you disgust me. By the way your last statement is damn lie.

Sucks that people can't get past this bs but I guess I can't blame them. Its innate.

Wait, was this comment directed toward me also?
 
its a slave mentality dark skinned slaves were viewed more less human (if that makes any sense
laugh.gif
excuse my grammar) than light skinned slaves so the darker ones were put in the fields to do the gruesome labor. the lighter skinned slaves were more accepted by the white master's family because they felt more comfortable around those that had some of the same qualities as them and therefore light skinned slaves were usually the mammies and took other main house-hold jobs.

this hierarchy caused jealousy amongst the slaves and allowed the master to have more power over his "property". this jealousy kept the slave in check. the house negroes didnt want to lose their good jobs so they reported any insurrections of any kind going on in the slave quarters. thats what made it impossible for any successful north american slave rebellion

the same attitude passed down generation to generation and now the lighter complexion, wavier hair, smaller noses, etc are desired traits because that mentality of "master will accept us if we resemble him" is still stamped in the psyche of african americans

end of discussion. it's sad that some of you say the things yall do.
 
Caramel gurls > all other gurls.... lol JK NO !%!+.

btw why are the dudes in the thread that prefer lightskinned women get the "smh" everyone has there preferences. I know alot of dudes that only likedark skinned gurls big deal, no one should feel bad because they are attracted to certain type of female.

on strenght---when I first got legitimate play from white dudes I ain't even realize what was happenin'....I was thinking "oh shoot--this dude is tryna get down

" I was really thrown aback cuz I had my afro goin,' my hair wasn't even straightened and I am NOT light skin in the least bit.

Yeah I know what you mean. The first time that happened to me I was like oh snap pointing to my self like "me?". Speaking of hair my mostmemorable observation was when I went bald to re-grow my hair, I was like shunned from the black community
laugh.gif
, but I got serious play from all thesewhite/hispanic/asian dudes. That was a REALLY weird experience.
 
Its sad that you put the two against eachother as if they are opponents.... it shouldnt be that way smh. Like Q-tip says- "Black is Black." I mean Idont know how other peoples familys are, but i have both ls and ds people in my family. And for me to say i like one better than the other, would be like mesaying I dont think my aunts,grandmas, or mom are beautiful women. But thats how the man wants it. They want us to hate eachother, so they can keep us down. Imean you can see how they do it when you turn the tv on and go to any pop culture station. It really makes me mad.
But like mentioned it was all set up to be like this. about 200 or so years ago by this slave master named willie lynch. he created a method to keep slavesdown for atleast 200 years, and then sent it to all of the slave owners in america.......

Thats basically what I am saying to Ill Will I am. Duke gave AJchick a plus 1 just for being redbone off the break. Doesn't even know what she lookslike. But I guess I can't blame dude.

And nah AJchick I wasn't speaking about you.
