Was I the only one who thought the sister on 'Coming to America' looked much better than the love-

Oh look another colorism thread in disguise

 

[Bigblackted4]

Young sister is much more my type for sure

 

[ThatTruth777]

they both looked good to me

 

[Yo Mama]

They are both lovely. But the golddigger sister was prettier to me.

 

[O³ (O cubed)]

Little sister was skinny as hell. But she was darn sexy tho.

 

[AtomicUse]

In the 2nd pic she looks like someone @beaniemac "knows".

They made her have a bad personality in the movie, but she looks just as good as Lisa

The sister just came off like a good one night stand given her energy. She seems like she’d be more fun than Lisa but they both look good imho.

It's funny when ever a Black man think a brown skin woman is more attractive than a lighter skin woman it's a colorism battle.

But if a Black Man says the reverse it business as usual and simply a "preference".

Preferences are cool until you prefer darkskin.

I don't think the main character was unattractive but if other Black men with varying preferences found other Black women in the film more appealing what's the beef?

Y'all get mighty defensive and want to pull ya capes out anytime a Black man doesn't follow the Light Is right mentality and doesn't automatically put every light skin woman on a pedestal.

That's an angle that Darkskin women get in film a lot.
The " fun girl" role. It's cool to date her and sow your oats but when it's time for a serious relationship you need to go find a " good girl" aka someone lighter.

Or we get typecast as " gold diggers" because we dare have standards in a relationship. Darkskin women are supposed to accept any Black man that comes there way and " build them up".

It's all BS and conditioning.
