Our skin is literally brown though :dahell:
How many people you know that are actually black like a shadow?
I’m not talking about the phrase “brown skinned”

I mean a black woman literally referring to herself as as brown in place of black.

“As a brown woman”, “I am a brown girl”, etc.

I mean...it depends on the context.

Even I will describe my skin tone as "medium brown" but that doesn't mean I deny being Black.

It would strike me as odd, but I've never heard it.

Uh, 99.9% of Black women who are considered brown skinned DO NOT refer to themselves as “a brown woman/girl”.

That’s literally for Latina or South Asian women.

I don't think I've ever heard a black woman says this :jbhmm:

Whenever I've heard someone refer to themselves as "brown" as a racial identity, they're Indian, Arab, or Hispanic.

If there are women of African descent claiming this, that's pretty questionable.
