"You Are Too Light To Be African", "You Don't Look African"

AFRICAN AMERICAN QUEEN

Splitting image, i may say.

There is definitely an "african look", the thing is, there is a variety of looks

You're right to an extent, especially with folks who have strong features associated with certain groups due to their location because phenotype most times correlates with habitat and food. For example: I know certain distinct looks that certain African people have and you can always tell. When I see certain Ghanaians, I can tell that they're Ghanaians. Ditto some Nigerian ethnic groups that I'm conversant with.

However, there are also a lot of people that you won't be able to tell unless they tell you.

SOME light skin Igbos do look like light skin AAs. But people gotta understand that AAs AND Africans are NOT monolithic in looks.

you mean caramel/medium igbos can/often look similar to caramelmedium aframs. Light skinned igbo's don't look like like skinned aframs.

 

[EndGame]

But this forum never used to be like this 3-4 years ago. What happened/changed?

Also, where is that nikka, 'The Nigerian'?

Black Brits and Africans are taking too many unnecessary shots and as someone and a warrior who represents both sides...I'm feeling some type of way about it. It's unnecessary since out here in London, all we ever do is show Aframs love/respect (I can't speak for Africans in Africa and those in the US). As an Afram, you can go to any hood in London and the only pass you need, is to tell the mandem that you're Afram and they'll show you love. The only caveat is that: you can't abuse it like Dipset did by shegging mandem out of 50 bags. Once you do that, you'll be barred from making money in London.

You nikkas need to show more love. It's all love over here.

Yeah thecoli wasn't like this until y'all let us know how you really feel. Even @R$G META wasn't like this until recently. That nikka snapped something fierce.

Dawg I'm just stating the obvious. It's mischievous to call her Senegalese.

These the same nikkas that said " to be considered AA one must possess, atleast 1 AA parent"

She got an AA parent, so I don't know why nikkas ain't trying to claim her. Lmfao

"Africans" is kind of generic, but this time the subject between and the other front is about the "fulanis", not the entire continent. So find a fat "Fulani woman" to make your case.

I thought African men liked big healthy women.

Ive even seen pics of contests and pageants held somewhere in West Africa that celebrated and honored the bigger women.

There are videos of African churches and the women in them look like they got type 2 diabetes.

I've championed AA ethnocentrism

It shouldn't lead to the use of white supremacist tropes about Africans tho

"Dirty fly faced Africans".

Y'all cosigning this shyt too.

The Coli is its own world a lot of this nonsense dont happen in real life
