nikkas also need to stop acting like all lighter skinned blacked people are biracial too, I read some of these dumb ass threads/comments and think, my younger sister can never find love because if someone likes her, they must be color struck

:comeon:

It ain't no problem, the problem is when nikkas come in with that only light skin, "no dark butts"... bytch made shyt, not saying that it's you OP or anybody in this thread

but I've seen a few people on here talking about no dark butts, you see them "dark butts" out there marching when cops gun down an innocent black male

and even if you aren't attracted to dark skinned black females, keep that bytch made c00n shyt to yourself, black women don't need to hear that shyt, and I damn sure don't want to hear it

my sister is darker complected and my girlfriend, keep that bytch assness to yourself :dahell:
Call em out so I can personally neg them on sight :ufdup:

Yeah its insecure to shame people due to complexion. I also dont see the big deal if a guy prefers light skin(IF he himself is light skin) either. Often times you like what looks like you.
It's cool if you like both which I think most people do. I do find it self hating if a dark skin person doesn't like darkskin.

I only ask y'all differentiate between the light and the mixed. Not shaming the multibred but I want no parts of it.

:hubie:

Also can there be a gold category? I don't like 'light', sounds unfinished or undercooked.

It's hard to tell sometimes and if a person looks black, I really don't see what the hang up is, I see your avi and you can pass as mixed but to me you look more black

There's plenty of mixed people that look black, and there's plenty of light skinned blacks that looks mixed

My girlfriends cousin has a white mom and black dad and he's darker than me and has coarser hair than me and both of my parents are black

Why do we need to differentiate? Division should be based on attitudes and opinions instead of skin color.

Because there are non racially ambiguous Black, white, Latino people who will argue you up and down when you tell them you're not mixed. I cant even count how many times this has happened. I agree with you that Im obviously Black but there are people who swear they cant tell and I know some of them are just trying to be offensive not realizing I have no problems spitting in people's face if need be. I don't think its funny or acceptable to call someone out their race. Light skin Blacks without direct mixing exist and shouldn't be labeled mixed.

Not to mention, in my experience mixed people have self-image problems unique to them. I dont want to be lumped in with that.
