Were there ever times where you either knew or had a good idea that your complexion would be a plus in a situation??

you know what the hell I'm talkin about to...you light skin mofos with the "good hair" and light eyes walk into a club or bar and know bitches are gonna be on you..

Same question for the women too..

tell the time and situation..
 
it's 2013, and we (black people) are STILL on this lightskin/darkskin bullshit. :smh::smh::smh:

i think we worry about it and stress about it more than white folks.
 
This has been proven hundreds of times that lighter skin people easily gain approval fasted than darker skin people. The situations don't matter much its pretty much across the board.

i was approved real quick for my home loan.

i was also approved really fast for my car loan.

what type of "approval" are you referring to?
 
Hells yeah. Especially in the 80's and 90's. Shit, I felt I had power over dark skinned girls. I literally did not have to try. Shit was just ridiculously easy. Nowadays, dark skinned girls don't fiend for us light skinned dudes like before. I got a coworker that's light skinned too and we were just talking about this the other day.
 
funny how dark brothers slam light skin brothers, but chase after white women............:smh::smh:
 
I have no idea how it is in real life for light skin blacks cuz I'm Wesley Snipes dark and never really cared after probably 9th grade maybe.

I would think there may be a subconscious reaction from certain races, classes and educational backgrounds. It's about pre-judging which happens in many cases other than skin color. A person may look a certain way and we may instinctively pre-judge that person until their words, actions or personalities prove otherwise, win us over and change our minds.

Some people will stay hung up on that type of stuff until the end of time though. Human nature.
 
Women love us dark skin men. We have an air of masculinity that can't be matched by a lighter skinned brother.
 
Man fuck being light skin and good looking. Because of that, I have no game now. Bitches came in flocks. Didn't even have to think of anything to say. Homies would hate rollin with me to the club :lol:
But it also comes with bullshit too. Muthafuckaz
like to test light skin niggas cuz they think they are soft.
I had a few homeboys trying real hard to be extra tough cuz they were light skin. I would be like, nigga I dont give a fuck. Put yo hands on me and its a wrap. No need to act tough.
And the same niggas that always tried to test were soft them self :dunno:

no disrepect

gettin tested ain't got shit to do with skin color.

i'm light and that ain't ever been a problem.
 

Just treatment. Like anyone else who approaches you based on looks, they think you're going to be like.......... whatever they imagine you to be. Stuck up. Thinking i'm better than everyone else. Automatically disliking me because of my looks when i had a crush on them. Or in 1 case her boyfriend liking me and her for some reason thinking i wanted him because i was the type of girl he liked. And her not knowing i liked her. And she said mean things to me.

When you're lightskinned, afrolatin. You're picked on by the dark skinned girls. So i don't see it as an advantage. I always saw it more as a hindrance. Especially when the people you love and want to be with, want to celebrate with, won't accept you.

Not like a nigga gonna come out and say it. Its just something I noticed when I was younger, not really now. Especially when it came to hoes choosin you over some dark ass nigga.
You prolly just never payed attention to it.

I see where he's coming from. I've known light skinned guys, and my wife herself doesn't like light skinned men because of the idea that light skinned men..MAY BE soft. And i've seen guys step to light skinned guys and it's always used as an insult.

Maybe you were just lucky enough to avoid it?

If Wesley color is a 10 then I'm a 8. It was 9th grade when the lightskin chicks began sticking for me based on my color. Shit continued thru high school color and life.

Here is a crazy situation that started for me when I started to close in on 30.

A shitload of swirls/hybrids/mixed babies, children and teenagers would come to me in public. By the time I turned 40 I was like the adopted daddy and granddaddy for countless stranger swirls.

I have had several swirls tell me that I look like the black dad or granddad they fantasized about.

Some folks like lightskin. Some folks like darkskin. Color/hue/saturation should be a preference and not a sickness.

if there was a chick with a boyfriend that you wanted to fuck with and she didn't like you, it seems like you being lightskinned would have to be, at best, 3rd on her list of reasons not to fuck with you.

after high school (i.e., after the the threat of being "picked on" dries up) i don't really see that shit being a negative for women. if you tellin me bitches was turnin you down because you were lightskinned, that would be the first i've ever heard of such. especially since i heard you're pretty attractive.

right :lol:

i think you gettin ran up on has waaaaaaaaaaaaaay more to do with how you carry and project yourself than it does with what damn shade you are. if you light and somebody took you for soft, you was puttin soft out there. it just happened to be wrapped in beige lol
