This unfortunately a pile of internet shyt......
The entire world gravitates towards the more "european look"...so your bullshyt about black men is just that...bullshyt.
Yes the entire world gravitates more towards european beauty you see it everywhere be it asian, hispanic whatever. However we as a race are worse than any other when it comes to idolising europeans. Firstly in terms of the way we look hair, skin face features body shape we are the total opposite to europeans. Even though as black women our features are only socially acceptable when they are on non black women ie, jlos backside, angelina jolies lips, as a whole our beauty is not represented or appreciated by the rest of the world because we do not look like them, which is why the only black women who get their foot in the door are the ones who look less african and more european, ed, beyonce, alicia keys, hale berry. All are talented but if they were a few shades darker they would never have reached the level of worldwide success that they have. So thats the white media, look at the black media again majority of women considered attractive tend to look more european, hair, facial features, skin complexion. Then look at society and maybe only darkskinned black women see this because we are the ones who are constantly overlooked for the more european looking black girl/lightskinned girl. I have experienced it myself and seen it too many times to even count. No matter how pretty the darker girl is 9 times out of 10 she will be overlooked if she is standing next to a girl with a lighter complexion who is not as attractive. So the problem exists and the sooner we deal with it the better. So I say to you open your eyes, pay attention to what is going on around you and maybe you will see what we as black women see everyday!

I think that is complete and utter BS.
What U have said is true to an extent...however, black people, women especially need to get out of there heads that not all black men love and prefer LIGHT SKINNED women. I think it is a myth...
People are bound to find other races attractive. I know for a fact that nuff guys find Lucy Lu beautiful and she is Chinese, at the same time as lusting over Kenya Moore and we all know the colour of her complexion..., just because some black men have a preference for light women, we should not come on here and argue that black men are brainwashed, when not all of them are...hehe
You need go to a country which has a 'coloured' majority and chill. When you do, you will know what real black men like...
Everyday I see black couples, mixed raced couples, white couples etc...people make too much of an issue of this and need to stop, because at the end of the day black men do Love black women in all our colours, however it doesn’t mean that they are exclusive to black women...as we are not exclusive to them.
Also a women who has a weave in her head is neither here nor there in this contemporary age as it is not just black women, who sport them. The list of millions of women across the world is just too long to go in to.
The media is changing, not as fast as we would like but it is changing. You can see this change in America more than in England, this brings us to the issue of acceptance. You don't have to accept what you don't believe is representative of you nor do you have to let it effect yr life, whereby you use the old light vs dark argument. Am sure you are good looking, so why feel that black men don't like you because you are dark? That is so stupid and dangerous to think that.
Am sick to death of hearing it. This type of ideology is now in the minds of mixed race (white parent and black parent) women who feel that black men don't like them no more because of Indian, Greek and Pakistani girls I mean WTF lol...If someone is attractive then they are attractive end of.
LETS not use celebrities as examples because, they are representative of an illusion.

With the latino surge in population, it's predicted they'll date/mate even moreso within their own ranks. Many of these nonblack women black men drool over don't even date them, so it's glaringly obvious that they are being used as stepping stones. I feel sorry for any black woman in a relationship with a man who can't get what he really wants and "settles" for them.

I also happen to think that some Black women are very insecure. Iused to date this Black girl who would once in a while say in a joking mannerthat "you are dating me because you can't find any white woman so you settled/went with me".She says in a joking manner but needless to say the relationship went no-where and in the end we split because the things she says annoys me. It is annoying when some Black women generalize the actions of some Black men and those of us not involve in dramaare tarnished and then judged according to the actions of the rest. She would go on and on about what Blackmen are doing, and all the drama and I'm like what has that got to do with me.
I know there are women who were hurt by Black-Men many times, but my advice is, don't go into your next relationship judging the next guy like the previous onesbut evaluate each potentialguy on a case by case basis, not generalizing everyone, otherwisethese womenwill will end up bythemselves, bitter because a good guy left because of the insecurity.

u said this very well, thank you. I actually find your words quite inspirational, some or many black women are very insecure about the desires of many black men towards non black women in the Western world, and quite rightly, to be fair in the UK espeacially and of course the US black men appear to be taking the bloody piss out of us for all the world to see.
It is hard to judge each man individually, when a woman may have been let down time and time again, but it is the only way forward, bitterness and hate is a waste of time

@Le Moor. Nobody here takes you serious this days. So have the last word regarding this non issue and knock yourself out if this will bring some occasional happiness into your life. You once did admit to finding yourself enjoying this type of behaviours you exhibit. You see what you want to see and arguing with you is just an exercise in futility, like watching paint dry on an object. You will argue on and on over nothing in particular, maybe this is indicative of somepersonnal problems going on in your life, who knows. Again good luck buddy.
@Wifeable. You are right, things are hard out there especially with relationships. One has to be aware of the company we keep and try to associate ourselves with positive people to improve the chances of meeting the right person and also for inspiration.

How very noble of you to offer me the last word.....AGAIN...
You are right though, this is a particular non-issue. Soperhaps i should save the arguement for an issue worth argeuing over, where no doubt you will be offerring your cheesytones as per usual.

Le Moor. Quick point to make here. The underlined sentences above in your post indicates some-one with a deep mental and psychological issues. With phrases such as "Save arguements", "wait long", I am know convinced you are a mental case probably your life is so boring that the only happiness you get is from argueing over nothing. This is further reinforced by your behavior of holding grudges, stalking on the internet and throwing tantrums and getting blue all in the face when BNV villagers use terms like Blue Foot, Pork, Bacon, etc etc. I am so glad the days of slavery and colonialism are over, or else massa would have used you to torment theAfricanswho are defiant and would not fall in line and you would havetaken considerable immense and sick pleasure in doing so, following massa's instructions.

You seriously need to chill out and get a life Le Moor. Are you studying or working too hard? Take a break and visit a bar and just for Pete's sake get drunk and wasted it would be good for you; or visit Starbucks and get yourself a cup of coffee. I wonder if you really got any sleep last night because the first thing on your mind is who on BNV did me wrong last month and who am I going to stalk today.

Take this piece of reflection to laugh at: Ask yourself what would one of those folks you arestalking on the internet or the villagers in BNV say about you if invited by your love ones to attend your funeral. Do you want them to sit down and yawn again and again watching others speak because they themselvesdo not want to speak because theycan not risk lying about a man(you Le Moor)they know the inside of his mind? I guess not.

VK, If you really want to get at me, try not making it so obvious, as well as finding some original material, carries more weight that way. Maybe you should stick to begging validation here on BNV. You are good at that.
