#TeamWhiteSkin vs #TeamLightSkin vs #TeamBrownSkin vs #TeamDarkSkin





This debate has been going on since the end of time. And quite frankly I'm sick of it. Its pretty black and white for me ( no pun intended) everyone has their personal tastes and attractions ( for example I am sooo attracted to how twitter would refer to them as- #TeamDarkSkin men. I personally prefer to call them Chocolate *licks lips* ) but enough of that. *splashes water on face to stop daydreams* lol

I don't like to categorise myself but people would say I'd fall into the category of "#TeamBrownSkin" and for that reason some may automatically find me attractive some may not. Not fussed me. But being a member of #TeamBrownSkin. I've seen the stages people go through and even gone through them myself. - Men being judged for choosing #TeamWhiteSkin ladies or ladies from #TeamDarkSkin insisting #TeamLightSkin ladies 'think they're too nice.' Wishing you we're a little lighter etc.

Personally it's all yawn for me. If you're attractive, you're attractive, whether you're pink, yellow or blue ( some of those Avatars were rather sexy i can't lie ;) lol )

Without getting too historical, I'm just gonna say that I think people need to grown out of the stereotypical and slave mentality that brighter is better and darker is dirty. This was something created by the slave masters and we're still living by it 400 years later

*confused at the stupidity*
How hard is it to realise that we're all beautiful shades of brown and to leave people to their personal preferences, there's pretty black, mixed and white girls. And some very ugly ones too lol.

In 1963 Martin Luther King Jr dreamed of a day when people would not be judged by the colour of our skin but by the content of our character.

But thinking about it now it seems no one really has any ounce of character and any content if in 2010 we are still debating which skin colour and shade of brown is the best. Isn't there more to a person than that?


*sigh*

Just a thought.
