some "nigga shit."

Although the OVERALL issue of dark skin v. light skin, may have unknowingly affected the way someone perceived me, they have never directly told me and I have never heard of it so I don't really know what other chicks go through with being told about their skin color.

Maybe because I ride that line in the middle. I'm, by no means, light skinned and yet would not be considered dark skinned. I am a self-proclaimed brown skinned person. I'm lighter than hot chocolate but darker than coffee with cream. I'm darker than a brown paper bag but lighter than mahogany. But when summer hits I'm deep, dark brown and I loooove that too.

However, shit like this disgusts me about OUR PEOPLE AS A WHOLE!





I'm not one of those people who believe that anyone's wrong for their personal preference because to keep it 100, I LOVE ME A CHOCOLATE, SMOOTH BODY man. GOTDAMN!

Here goes the nitty-gritty: Chocolate men have a presence. Often times darker skinned men have a more even complection. My thought when I see a sexy dark skinned man is that he can give me that good-good, talk to me dirty, and his sweat tastes like cinnamon. And don't let him have a ill body, too! Then it's a done deal. Often when I look at (tanless) light skinned men I see the color of raw chicken. SRY!

All in all, I've had my share of light and dark men. My last and most serious boyfriend was mixed and light skinned and I loved when he had a tan because that shit just made him look yummy. And my last boothang was lightskinned and sexy as all hell.

OK I'm rambling...

Point is, this shit has got to go. This is no longer a debate, black people. It is WHAT IT FUCKING IS! I prefer dark skinned and Joe Blow probably love him some LSLH. WHO THE FUCK CARES ANYMORE?!

I believe that the main issue is people think "Who the fuck are you to like something that you're not?" That's what it seems like. Like, you have some nerve liking blasian, blaxican or dominigga bitches when you're a dark skinned nigga. But get over it! That shit is done! But if you have self-hatred and don't like dark skinned or light skinned men/women because you have identitiy issues or a problem with who you are, get that shit checked out, pronto!

TELL 'EM. I think this is the most ignorant shit i've ever seen. I don't get why there's even a comparison b/w light and dark. It's so stupid. Bad enough there's hardships we as black people face everyday because of our race, but why is this same crap going on within our own race?

I also prefer dark skin men because when I think of a light dude i seriously think of raw meat. (pun intended) but with a black dude i think of meat that is "well done" (again, pun intended). this doesn't mean i don't love my light brights because i absolutely do. Everyone has their preference, but when a preference turns into ignorant shit that's just wrong.

I'm done..cool blog.
