shyt asians don't even like to get tanned..

You can tell the foreign asians from Americanized over in seattle because the foreigners would be covered up during summer so as to stay pale.

I've seen many asian women walk around with umbrellas when it's hot out.

I'm about her complexion and I've never been called light-skinned

 

[ultraflexed]

Shes not brown skin, shes lightskin

No she's not

 

[CHICAGO]

You and someone else hit on this, it's completely false that black people are the only people who deal with colorism...

This board is ~90% black or so, so we talk about black topics, and some of these muhfukkas have little to no exposure to non blacks in their real life, so they think these things are only black things...

WHO DIDNT KNOW THIS?

IT ALL RELATES BACK TO BLACKS & WHITE SUPREMACY.

IF YOURE DARK LIKE A NEGRO THERES A STIGMA.
IF YOUR WHITE LIKE A CAC YOURE MORE BELOVED IN SOCIETY REGARDLESS OF RACE.

THOSE CULTURES DONT HAVE LIGHT SKIN/DARK SKIN WARS THOUGH.

THEY JUST STRIVE TO GET LIGHTER
OR MARRY LIGHTER.

She’s lighter than Ciara, Nicki bleaches and the rest of them are light skinned. It also depends on whether or they been out in the sun cause Yara skin looks tanned in some photos.

No one ever calls them light skinned, like ever. No one will ever get mad because Sanaa or Will Smith were cast in a movie over a darker skinned actor or actress.

Also, Nicki wears full body makeup and Ciara tans.

Nicki doesn't bleach her skin.

 

[Bigblackted4]

She’s Brown, light to me is yellow

 

[King Khufu]

You be surprised tho how many people consider lighter brown skin tones as light skinned even though the colour is common

 

[hatealot]

So this is not considered lightskin?

This broad is light skinned, yellowbone and all that.

 

[ultraflexed]

Nicki doesn't bleach her skin.

 

[African NOT Amerikkkan]

We need a Paper bag test

How come niccaz dont understand lighting
She's standing sunlight of course she"ll look light, however she is not lightskin. She is brown skin under normal lighting or no lighting.
