LSA Sistas- 'The Only Thing You Need to Capture a Black man is'...

[MoonGoddess]

I fully agree with the bolded.

I mean look at this this thread, this entire thread is a product of the mindset that the bolded alludes to.

I've already told stories about my exes (the dark skinned ones) who are absolutely gorgeous in my opinion and in the opinions of most people who knew them. But yet, they always had some insecure, slikk shyt to say about light skinned women and how men always choose them first.

When I was with my most recent ex (tall, dark skin) , we ran into my previous ex at Kroger (taller, very light skin). After that awkward meeting, she asked me no less than 5 times if I had a preference for "light brites".

Its so strange seeing dark skin women who have no issues getting men still lamenting their pigmentation.

Complexes die hard... if ever.

Yeah, it's hard to explain. I guess in the back of our minds we feel that if the guy had a choice between us and the other, that we might not be the first choice. I asked my dude yesterday after reading this thread if he ever went through a phase where he didn't like darkskin girls. And he basically said the same thing that you guys are saying, it was just something he didn't see growing up. He says all the good looking darkskin girls were always being chased. I mean I think I'm average look wise and tho I always got approached the few times that a dude said some slick shyt about my skin color had me doubting myself despite the fact that literally 2 mins before another guy gave me play. Also that being cute for a darskin girl compliment, I can't count how many times I heard that or how many times a guy would try to talk to my lighter friend first and would go for me after she denied them. I always laughed it off but it's not good feeling like ur second best. Lol but hey maybe I'm just ugly because that's what it seems to boil down to for some. I guess all the short guys that get no okay are all just ugly too. I mean it's just so hard to believe that people can be so superficial that they will reduce you down to a color or a height, no way in the world people can be that shallow....

Are u gonna marry her though? last thing we need is more baby mama/daddy cohabitating situations

I feel you, but some people (especially in their youth) are absolutely that shallow. You gotta not let that shyt deter you, especially because A) You get attention B) You got a man.

I used to doubt myself over my appearance, and then I decided to build my ego to unprecedented levels.

Young me would have been hurt if an attractive woman called me ugly.

But now? There's nothing anyone can say to make me feel like i'm not amazing. Rihanna could come up to me and say "boy you ugly" and i'ma still try to get her number

lol no doubt. I was being sarcastic in the end tho, I know it was probably hard to tell with my lack of punctuation and spelling errors.

Turn down for sex probably none, but for a relationship
Just cause you never seen it doesn't mean it doesn't happen. And no it's not just ugly out of shape dark skin girls that get it. it's silly because people can tell some of y'all over and over and you'll never believe it. I've literally seen dudes make the screw face when they talking about a chick and one ask how she looks and the other says she's dark skin these dudes be like
Some of these guys literally act like being darkskin is a disease.
I used to work at a grocery store as a supervisor and had a bunch of young black guys working with me. The way they talked about darskin girls was a damn shame. What's funny is one of them had this bad little darkskin chick, her body was insane and had a cute baby face. I would have never imagined him with her the way he would talked about redbones. This kid literally told me with no shame that he was just waiting to make it so he can get him a light skin. You might as well have said that women were nothing but color to these guys cause that's the way they would describe them. But I know it's hard to believe because you guys aren't like that or you don't hang with people like that. It's how I feel when I'm in one of those all black women only chase thug threads. But it is what it is. I will be happy so very happy when darkskin girls stop worrying about what a bunch of dudes that don't want them prefer. Yeah yeah yeah it hurts but there are so many black men that do like darkskin even prefer them.

All of this.
Seriously. I won't throw shade at people who have never experienced it either because I'm the EXACT same way in those thug threads.
Like da fukk? I've legit NEVER met a blk chick who dated, chased or lusted after a thug.
But that doesn't mean it don't happen just because I've never encountered it.

But yeah I'm actually okay with blk dudes who are honest about it because it helps blk chicks filter em out. Now dark skinned women have to get over em and only show love and attention to the men who prefer them.

This may surprise you, but yes I do.
I believe that there is indeed a lightskin bump that mediocre lightskin women get. I absolutely believe it.

What I don't believe is Dark skin dimes who complain about this are really experiencing it like they think they are.

It's two different situations.

Attractive dark skinned women have hangups from childhood, either getting clowned for being dark, or seeing the boys they liked drool over the light skinned sistas. Puberty hit and dudes started appreciating all forms of beauty but they still remember the days when they weren't considered as pretty. So even though they can pretty much pull whatever dude they want, they still complain about this.

Average/Below Average dark skinned women are seeing that "bump" that Average/Below Average light skinned women get, and then see the images portrayed in the media about what is most "appealing", and are crying foul. However, these women are not getting attention from men because of their looks in general. But since there is a level of ignorance about skin color, they rally behind the concept of brehs only wanting light brites. Plus it's not easy for most of them to admit that maybe they aren't that appealing, irrespective of their skin color. Colorism serves as a scapegoat.

All that stuff won't keep a man though

Checkmate

 

[HandsomeBrute]

This.

It also doesn't help me that I'm short, darkskinned and ugly either

at coli dudes who think complexion doesn't matter

If you're insecure about your complexion too fukking bad

You posted this on your banned account.
You mentioned several times how you hated being black on your egobiggs account and now all of sudden you're a problack who likes yellowbones.

Some of yall got some serious mental issues .

 

[egsteel]

She's right


fukk these dark skinned hoes

Edit- how is preferring light skin black women over a dark skin one race baiting? It's no different than preferring a tall man over a short dude right

On the coli you can only talk disparagingly about non-black women/races. Anything directly at black women and you get an automatic warning.

 

[Insun Park]

I wont lie, I've never heard black men over 25ish talk negative about darkskin women. And I mean never.


I hear kids talk bad about darkskin people frequently, even in passing.


I 've heard men say they don't really like darkskin women, but I've heard men say they don't really like lightskin women just as much.

Eh men like what we like

Dark skin girls need to get in where they fit in and stop whining

lol I got a warning in this thread for simply saying I'm attracted to lightskinned women

But females here can tell men to kill themselves and it's all good

 

[SleezyBigSlim]

This is the top thread on LSA right now. Thoughts?
