Ok, lemme break this down really quick. Bare with me, I'm no writer:


So today, me and my friend struck up a conversation with this Nigerian girl(obsessed over white males) that we knew in class about well...her and why she was so "light" skinned...in fact she is actually close to my color. Caramel. Caramel is NOT light skinned. Ok? ok.


Now my ignorant companion has no knowledge about Africa and the skin tones of the people in the various regions...he thinks all blacks in Africa are black as this little box I'm typing in, have super huge lips, and enormous noses. Ok. Fine. But the Nigerian girl we're talking to shatters his little preconception and he's surprised...and attracted. What an idiot. What a grade A buffoon. Man. I just sit here and concentrate on his complete lack of brain cells to be able to grasp this simple fact: All Africans are not what you see on channel 3 at 2:00 am in the morning..or the Discovery channel for that matter. What makes it worse is that he's a black male...may not be surprising to you guys, but hey, I don't get out much. Sue me.


Now he likes the light skinned blacks and there are many in my class. Me, I love black women in general, and refuse to date anyone else, but miss Nigeria and my Homie see that as a problem. A crime. I say that I find this extremely dark girl attractive, and their heads turn 360 degrees on some exorcist ish.

meh, this is a rant, but whatever. Amazing when people see it as surprising that you're black and *gasp* only like black women....BLACK WOMEN.

...as in the whole chocolate spectrum.


Ok, I'm done.

Unfortunately, many blacks are like that. It's just crazy. There is nothing wrong with liking dark black women. Pay no attention to people like that. They are truly lost.

what a pair of goons for england, im guessing your still in college>. they are yet to grow up and experience factors of life, tell them to sign up here and read a little. Hopefully they will grow out of it
Do your thing, love blackness, black women and your black self- maybe you can smack some sense into the one trillion black males in the UK who believe that black women are not a representation of beauty, or that dating outside is the natural progression of blacks in the UK. We need to love ourselves before others and attempt to claw onto a inch of cultural dignity.

LOL don't worry about it dude, do your thing. I used to get that too and I've had both 'black' as well as white people get angry and upset (literally) when they knew that about me - and some of them have outrightly accused me of 'racism'. It happened to my brother and I relayed a funny story on here once about what happened when some white girl fancied him like mad but ended up looking a dyam fool when he didn't give her the time of day and even looked at her with her disgust.

When you're an African male and your sole desire is African women, a LOT of people won't like it and can't even bear the mere thought of any young African man who wouldn't look at a european twice. It happens.

Do you really want to remain friends with the people you mentioned anyway? Personally, I can't stand being around people with that mentality and avoid them like the plague.

Hakeem man, I don't know. They're my friends, but they're just..out there..I can't just disassociate from them just like that. I'm not in college yet (12th grade), and I'm American, but they simply cannot grasp the fact that I specifically adore black women...every kind that there is. The American, the African, the Caribbean, the South American, The dark skinned, the light skinned, the tall, short, natural, processed..

and when I tell you that my Nigerian friend is obsessed with white people......you better believe me..she is. I'd even go so far as to say that she wants to BE white. She's wants the different colored eyes, the blond hair, the white husband...I mean...no one sees this as a problem but me, and I'm crucified in a sense for the way I think. ehh.

Lack of proper education, they don't know themselves or the people they think they like. Let them get on with it and wash out or realize what a mistake they've made later on in life when they have mixed pickney confused and bawling because mommy/daddy wants to be white.

Hmmm I had a conversation with someone that is very close to me and they dont see the issue with calling a dark skinned female ;blibk' and light skinned a 'brownie'. This person has also been out with v.dark skinned girls, but would still refer to them as this and i quote 'if i hate them'. Makes no sense to me at all. Also this person also suggested to me that the MAJORITY of black males like light skinned females because the majority of them are pretty (no they are not, its the perception of beauty IMO) and that black girls are in some way or another jelous of them.

I HAD TO PUT THAT ONE STRAIGHT TOO. As much as this person is very intelligent and knows where they come from etc etc, even their condioning has been conditioned more than they realise themself!!!

Bumping this up. I just thought about this thread on the Flavor of Love 2 message board. It had nothing to do with Flavor of Love 2. It was title Are White Women Intimidated By Black Women? Some white idiot bitch created a post talking about how she stole a black man from his black wife of ten years. Then went on to say how he wasn't in love with her. And said that he couldn't have been more happier with her (the white woman herself). And that his family didn't even like her. She even told of how some black women were throwing insults at her and her man when they were out at a game, I believe. And that he paid no attention to them at all. As if all that's supposed to make her feel good. I didn't even even respond to her. I wish I did.

Just randomly came across this, while looking at a completely unrelated topic:Men, women & the secrets of skin colour
The fair maiden of myth appears to have a basis in scientific reality, according to new research covered in today's Independent on Sunday.
Scientists looking into attractiveness in men and women suggest that men of all races are subconsciously attracted to fairer-skinned women, while women are more drawn to dark-complexioned men.
The researchers, whose study shows that across different races, lighter-skinned women are seen as the ideal, say the attraction is driven by preferences based on moral assumptions.
Men are subconsciously attracted to fairer skin because of its association with innocence, purity, modesty, virginity, vulnerability and goodness, according to researchers at the University of Toronto.
Women are attracted to men with darker complexions because these are associated with sex, virility, mystery, villainy and danger.

To me it just described the whole bl**d c***t legal system, any comments?
