ughh this girl who is light-skinned decides to walk into a room of darker skinned girls and shout "LIGHT-SKIN IS THE RIGHT SKIN!" i'm not  dark myself but i think what she said was really rude towards the darker skinned people. She feels that light skinned girls and guys look WAYYY better than darker skinned girls and guys. Do you agree with this statement?

(p.s. we're all black)

I maybe light to be a black girl, but i don't think my lighter skin is no different from my darker skin brother, we are both black niggas

generally, yep

Definitely don't agree.  It's her opinion... And I don't share the same one.  And while I don't mind her opinion... I don't think shouting it out like that was something that I would appreciate.  Especially when the term 'right skin' is used, implying that others are 'wrong' or 'bad'.

I don't agree

Well there's a first, a minority attempting to act superior besides equal.

That honestly remind me of what started all the genocide in Rawanda.

like i understand she has her own opinion but going up to everyone, telling them they are not the "right skin" is just inappropriate. I'm not trying to make her change her state of mind but, to make her keep her rude comments to herself

pm me anonymous, i gotta tell you a story

she is very dumb and i try to stay away from her but she's one of those people who like try to act up and cool in front of everyone when no one cares


-- Posted by jakelong at 8:36 pm on July 6, 2009

Thats pretty typical of that type of idiot.

That's a "bougie" mentality a lot of people carry around. Some upper society black people think like that. Not all but a few though

She's black but her skin tone isn't dark, is what she's saying. In case you didn't know, blacks come in a wide array of skin tones, with those on the fairer side commonly seen as more attractive therefore 'right', but that's not something I'm not stupid enough to believe.


-- Posted by BritchesAndHose at 10:57 pm on July 6, 2009

hmmm this isn't right... LOL
