LOL breh :laff:

which black men r these :laff:

just being honest, black women aren't the only people suffering from this type of thought. I don't see blackmen bleaching yet. But... Black men like lightskin women for a reason. Mostly, because its a status symbol to them.

Personally, I've had all types of the color spectrum of black....the mixed curly haired thick, the redbone looks mixed type, the lightskin model type slender, the brown (my favorite), the dark chocolate thick....all of them are just women & look great but some dudes is stuck on that color ish hard too.

@Premeditated your theory was wrong

as you see in @Jazzy B. black MEN don't mind simping a bleached chick either :patrice:

:mjlol: I don't really care what any female does to her body or appearance, if she looks good she looks good and in this case she does. It's not my problem or yours:yeshrug:. If you actually cared you would have sent her message asking the question "why?" in addition to others, but Instead you've decided to create "drama" on a specific message board and cater to an audience that you damn well knew would eat this up and turn it into another generic black woman bashing thread that we've seen 1000 times before:heh:. nikka :camby:.

I'll explain the assimilation thing further in regards to Africans and African-Americans.

African-Americans...they came here as slaves, had their culture completely destroyed and replaced, were separated from their familes, sold to other slave owners, given anglicized names, denied educational opportunities, and everything else.

Fast forward to the present. Africans that come to America (besides everything you have mentioned) have families, family structure, heritage, culture, and everything else. So, since that can't be removed from us forcefully like it was removed for African-Americans, it is up to us to destroy our own culture in order to "assimilate" in American society and be "accepted". (This is what I was trying to elaborate on).

When we wear our traditional dresses and garb to work or other functions, we're told that it's "too ethnic" or that it's "loud and distracting". They don't have the gall to say it makes them uncomfortable.
I think you're seriously underestimating the extents to which this already happened during the colonial era. There's a ton of great literature on this. Read up on works by Frantz Fanon (particularly "Black Skin, White Masks" (1952!)),Chinua Achebe, Ayi Kwei Armah and many others.

Culture and heritage are embedded in language and practice. How many 1st and 2nd gens do you know that speak English perfectly yet don't understand their mother tongue? How many Africans do you know that have even minimal knowledge of the religions and practices that have almost been completely superceded by Christianity and Islam? How many Africans do you know that insist on wearing their tradition dress to formal functions and unconsciously place it on the same tier as a suit and tie?

The reality is Africans were marginalising themselves long before they left Africa. They don't need to tell you it makes them uncomfortable because what matters is that it makes you uncomfortable. If your cultural identity was grounded in something solid it wouldn't even matter what they thought. It's all different sides of the same story. The reason why Africans feel at pains to abandon their culture and assimilate is because no reason presents itself that encourages them to hold onto it. If you understood who had fought and died for it, what it meant to those that came before you and were able to forge those lessons into something vital to the present it simply wouldn't be an issue, but so much of that was lost long before we were born.

We're constantly being told by so many people how to act, who to associate with, how to think, who to date, where to work, what to listen to, etc...it's really easy to see the difference between black, white, and American, when you're not American. Therefore, you'll have native born Americans (I'm talking generations deep) telling you how to conduct yourself and remove your own autonomy simply because they feel as if they are your "tour guide" to American culture.

Even Black Americans tell us we aren't Black...when we are Black. Simply because we don't fit their definition of "black" to them. As if Black American identity revolves around sports, entertainment, and the hood.

Most Africans don't date or really associate with Black Americans just due to cultural differences (and a slight disapproval of African American culture/inability to relate to it).
Africans are pretty much told by and large in regards to their families to marry African.
A vacuum longs to be filled. I feel its important to recognise the extent to which the cultural insecurities of the minority can appear to manifest as the as the ignorant insistence of the majority. If you truly believe in it nobody can remove your autonomy. Everybody in America experiences American culture through their own lens. Black Americans cleave harder to notions of blackness than Africans do largely because their lens was forged as an oppressed minority. Honestly I wouldn't read too much into that.

The divide between Africans and African Americans is unfortunate but not surprising though I feel that's more a result of limited exposure on the part of African Americans and I think that should improve given a generation or two.

Black women...hell black people need to get off that light skin= beautiful tip.

If you ugly and dark skinned, you still gonna be ugly slight skinned because you ugly.

But then again, ugly is not a fact but opinion. People don't recognize this.

I'm convinced strong intelligent black people that love themselves and don't buck down to any sort of eurocentric standard are a dying breed cause society hates us. They hate our skin color. They hate our natural features. They hate our culture. They hate our heritage. They hate our pride in the African diaspora. And they project that hatred through the media to get sisters like this to hae themselves...not knowing that they were alright all along.

Society loves c00ns and sell-outs like these. White people don't accept people like her but they'll give her a pat on the back for working so hard to look like them and boost their confidence. The only market she has now in the dating pool are color struck negroes that don't love themselves either.

It's like X-Men. Where mutants would spend thousands...hell...MILLIONS to NOT be mutants. Damn near killing themselves to be considered "normal" (cause white skin/light skin= "normal" in Western Society).

Everybody wants to be black except black people.

Everybody wants to be black except black women and africans. Fixed

I would like to see other pics of when she was darker. I bet she was pretty before, but that pic is unflattering.

Literally looks like a clown now though.
