when I sent them the news about this app.
They expresses these exact feelings about raising a kid.
The claim is that the more European the features, the better--to supposedly claim distinct advantages, here in the USA.

Many are....but I wouldn't be someone looked through their old photos one day and went, "Shit I've only dated dark-skinned people."

I don't think there's actually anything wrong with having a skin preference unless you're implying one is better than the other.

21. "So my best friend's girlfriend is light skinned. "
In response to Reply # 20


  

          

Just like every other girlfriend he's had since HS.

His current girl pointed this out and even mentioned the celebs he likes, and told him that he only likes light skinned girls.

He said, "nah, that's not true at all! I like dark skinned girls too, they just gotta be fine as hell! And most fine dark skinned girls are hella stuck up! People say light skinned girls are stuck up, but nah, the good looking dark skinned ones always got stank attitudes!"

I wasn't even gonna waste time checking him, but I thought that was ignorant as hell and ridiculous. Yet, it's how some people think. I think it's bad to have such a high standard for dark women....I may have even felt it was better for him to say "I like the good looking dark skinned women; but it's not as many who look good." And that's ignorant for sure, but also common. To act like they have to be super fine, while you'll date a mediocre or below average light skinned girl is just.....nah.

In response to Reply # 21


          

but lets be honest, we always talk shit/joke about light skin girls attitudes.

and as a light skin dude (I'm brown but down south I'm considered light) dark skin women have no problem telling me I'm too light when having discussions about dating preference.

but if i told a woman she is too dark to date??? nah, it wouldnt go over well at all.

In response to Reply # 31


  

          

To exclusively date a person with a specific hair curl pattern, is shallow. To specifically prefer non-African features, when you and all of your people have those same African features, is self hating. And, to expressly exclude a partner for not having "Soup Coolers", is a fetish.

1hr 16min in when Fioper goes to her job with flowers. Powerful speech that talks about their dating history.

Lightskin women only dating dark skin and vice versa.

When he says skin has us both fucked up and she replies "maybe it has, maybe it has.."

i love that scene.

have both produced/directed movies addressing the topic also. I only remember seeing them at film festivals, and can't remember details--except I think the St. Clair Bourne film was a documentary.

Edit:
Never mind, just looked, those films (and Duke even made a sequel) are documentary.

35. "Everyone has preferences"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

So, because one site decided to make a dating app highlighting specific preferences, people are in an uproar?

Why do people assume that only dark skinned women will be attacked or discriminated against?

I do agree that there should be an option for this who are gay/lesbian/queer, etc. but aside from that I don't think it is serious enough to want the site shut down.

Those who feel the app promotes colorism should simply not join the site and simply practice colorism in private.
