"Light Girls" Documentary on OWN

[Ooh Marty]

Exactly.
Tell Black women white men are the gatekeepers of the Black community then get confused when they look to white men for validation, brehs.

Proudly brag abt lighter women and non black women being trophies and then blame a whole nother race of men for ur preference and shame brehs

Your absolutely right in regards to the colorism in Africa being a problem, but the issue is on a whole 'nother level in the states. But again this is the belly of th beast so it's not surprising.

And it's worst Latin America. Nothing we really do about it.

Did u watch the entire doc?

Nah I only watched the trailer. Just don't see how yall can blame black men collectively for a problem rooted in white supremacy.

Do some brothers promote the bullshyt? Sure. But this idea that most black dudes are colorstruck and to blame for your inferiority complex is bullshyt.

Did u not hear the pure ignorance of them nikkas starting at the 1:20 mark?

I'd rather be a bed wench than to think I'm not good enough because I'm too dark for a black man and he's just settling for me because "light skin " black women are too stuck up

Sis, please don't watch this nonsense.

Well dishonest wasnt the appropriate word, dismissive is what i meant.

Dismissive of grown people crying on either side about dating options you're mother fukking right I'm being dismissive about that shyt. Grown people don't got shyt better to do than worry about who don't want them. Even as a younger person I had to realize that I can't have every chick I want and it is what it is. Its always going to be something skin, nose, face, height, money, religion, etc so why worry? That's why I can't care about this much esp from older people. Younger kids I'm more understanding but adults FOH.

I'm not blaming anyone I'm merely discussing a specific segment in the documentary where black men proudly discussed why they hold lighter women and non black women as trophies as opposed to Brown and dark skin women

Sis, please don't watch this nonsense.

I already watched it

What use does a woman have for a man that won't even fight for himself nor his people?

Black men think I hate them but I don't ....I'm just giving tough love

Exactly!
They want want respect they must earn it like every other man.

What do we have thar we didnt have to ask white mens approval to recieve?
They will work hard to get them a pawg though. They will protect and provide for the white mans daughter.

Woo look at this bitter chick. I hope I'm wrong but you sound like them stereotypical ugly girls worried too fukking much about a relatively small percentage of black men. Let me guess in your world ALL black men are with "pawgs"? They also spitting and running over fine loyal black women to get there right even though the numbers say the vast majority of any group are married to their own. So where in bizarro world do you live where the bullshyt you kicking is real for the majority of black men? Smfh

It must suck for you. IF this is you assessment of most brothers then I honest fee you should focus other races of men.

Youre trying to make this about Black America when some of those women Arent even AA. This is an issue across the diaspora. The IR marrige rate in CANADA AND THE UK is 2X almost 3x that f the US.

IR marriage, specifically black white marriage, is arguably the most taboo in America. Blacks in other countries are usually immigrants from Africa. They're ancestors were likely never enslaved by whites (in the country they immigrate to) so the racism against them isn't evoking deep seated historical injustices.

Also when you voluntarily immigrate to a country you're not going to be as outspoken about racism and are more likely to assimilate with the countries culture (unless you're muslim).

America and perhaps brazil are the only two countries I can think of that has a minority black population who are descendants of slaves so the black white relationship is (justifiably) more hostile.

You trying to act like shyt dont exist ain't going to make smell go away.
Youre really trying to make this about desirability? This aint just about fukking this shyt affects every aspect of life.
