Just wanted to see some examples with pretty ladies.....

Well.....

See Lauren is actually a light brown skin, but not actually light skin/red bone in my opinion and experience

 

[How Sway?]

That's not light, that's regular

Where do you live at where he is regular toned?

Thats about as light as a black man can be without being mixed.

This is the biggest issue with colorism.

Aside from extremes, every black person has their own definition of what is light skin and sometimes even dark skin.

I've had people tell me Chris Brown isn't light skin.

I’ve had people tell me I’m light skin and I’ve had people tell me I wasn’t. I don’t care. Complexion doesn’t mean anything to me. I have noticed that darker skinned people tend to think anyone lighter then them is light skinned. It’s 2020, I don’t see why it still needs to matter.

My brother is like Steph Curry complexion, my niece is only a tad more brown (ds mom). But because she looks exactly like me (and I'm brown skin), like i birthed her myself, she's darker in her mind.

So her bitmoji was my complexion for literal years. She just got it right. I congratulated her.

I think im darker than i really am too. Is that a thing?

[SupremexKing]

That's not light, that's regular

neg pending.

this boils down to black peoples mentally instability as a result of living in a system of white supremacy (the obsession with light, or white, skin). internalized insanity. this isn't hard, or even worthy of a thread.
