Appreciation is one thing and we know dark skin black women are underdogs compared to lighter skin. Just like short men compared to tall men.
For example if a chick likes tall men she doesn't need to go around screaming I hate short men just pursue those men you like. And if she does to me she's an attention whore with her own insecurities.
Though, to play advocate for a sec, it also never seems to be much of a problem (self-hating or otherwise) if she's 4'8 and states that she prefers men that are 6'2 and up." It's never seen as a complex developed due to her being insecure about her height.
