They stuck out cuz the thread it was posted in had some brehs tryna
for the Blackness of a 20% African, majority CAC-girl.
Things like that stick out to me 'cuz I am staunchly against including biracials, let alone 2% skimmed-Blacks, as Black.
No.
I'll explain if you care to read.
1st.
It was always going to be lopsided, inherently so, because it relies on the digital footprint of the respective diaspora women to even collect the examples necessary to vote on.
Given this limitation, girls that are heavily present on social media or otherwise have a prolific internet profile would have an edge over women who, for whatever reasons, have a limited presence on the internet.
Taking that into consideration, I voted on a curve given the limited number of examples that were available for most nations.
2nd.
I made a comment about Olympic basketball earlier.....
When it comes to beauty/aesthetics the U.S : Everywhere else as the NBA : World basketball.
Being the world's premier 1st world nation means there is a surplus of resources dedicated to luxuries like beauty and sport.
You must have noticed yourself that several of the women you posted in other polls were either transplants to the U.S. or 1st gen immigrants.
Hell, I don't blame you, it'd be much harder to come up with a decent amount of pics if you made that a restriction.
I think it was even briefly mentioned in the JA thread how island women were less curvy than the ones born or moved to the U.S.
The U.S. provides women with the environment & resources to exploit their potential for beauty to the fullest.
3rd.
The AA girls got a huge, though unnecessary, boost from in-group bias.
You
could say that was true of ALL the other polls, as well.
But none of the other polls had the sheer numbers to tip the scales the way AA's have.
The fact that theColi is an American messageboard, ostensibly,
for AAs would inevitably lead to this imbalance.
You said I'm being hypocritical because I gave the Brazilians a 10, despite being just as, if not more, admixed as AAs.
But once again, my vote was not based on admixture, one way or another.
I just thought that would be a funny pseudo-justification.
My vote was actually to counteract the various variables I felt were tipping the scales in AA's favor.
If theColi was a Brazilian forum and the Brazil-brehs were flooding the polls like y'all are itt, I'd lowball them too.
And just like I am now, I'd tell 'em yeah their women are fine but it's a matter of principle.
Again, that half-cac remark is just a
hypothetical joke to match the score I was giving.
The actual rationale behind the score is what I said to kidstranglehold.
And are you really saying there are less than 50 AA posters on theColi?
