Light Skin Men or Dark Skin Men...which do you prefer?

Why does it matter. Its all superficial stuff anyway

 

what? The first sentence contradicts the second one. She is fine the way she is. I mean is it ok to sort of eradicate their race's phenotype? People should be fine with their looks and not have to get surgery. lol Any one wonder why Micheal had so many surgeries?

 

Okay but what race is seen as the most undesirable in our society unfortunately.
WW can do all type of stuff, but at the end of the day they are on top regardless. BW different story. It is human to be what's popular and at the moment its having light-skinned features

 

MJ might have had a semi-big nose (i got to look at his young pic again), so trimming down his nose and curling his hair to look a little better was oaky, but he got carried away to become a WM.
Same for lil KIm, she looked better after 1 or 2 plastic surg but she got carried to look like a white barbie

 

You are missing my point. People are fine the way they are. They don't need to look more of something they are not.

 

Look at Nicki Minaj, a new female rap artist and white barbie wannabe. I use to love the female rap artists, they were raunchy and kept it real. Now if this is gonna be the start of a trend. I'm over black female rap artists

 

This thread got hijacked into something else. Anyway I hope the ladies I encounter love my skin complexion.

 

It is oaky for you to say Denzel Washington, lol

PPl can do whatever the fuck they want to do to bring them confidence or happiness. I know good looking ppl (8/10)who went to plastic surg to be a lot more attractive (12/10), to each his own. Ppl always tell you looks does not matter that is not always the case, LOOKS DOES MATTER!

 

It isn't always the case. The problem is with the other people SADLY.

 

If Ashton Kutcher that Iowan farm boy was not a good looking guy, do you think he would have got out of corn town Iowa, let alone get a great a chance to marry GI Jane 80's eye candy Demi moore? let's keep it real.

 

If he wasn't ok with his looks, he wouldn't have gotten any where.He is comfortable with his looks. I just don't want to be a case where I have to look more white to be successful. That's what I feel you are pushing with the nose job. They generally get nose jobs close to a more European look. Another reason why I picked out M.J. It is fine to look like what you look like. I don't think you should have to alter yourself to look like the majority. A case Micheal Jackson shows very well of altering yourself to look less like you and more like the majority.

 

If he was not Good looking, he would not have a fraction of chance in tinsle town, even diddy was tap dancing for him.
Noone said you should look white. What I'm saying is if you have deficency and you desire to rectify it, then more power to you.There are all kind of races who go under the knife to correct whatever assymetry mother nature placed upon them without altering most of their "race" specific phenotypes.
Look at that reality show villain Omorosa, word on the street is she has got nose job, boob job and botox.
She looks a little bit better after the surgeries and she still maintained being "black", she did not do much alteration. Noone mistakes her face for anything but blk.

 

Good looking and deficiency is subjective so it is hard to make a comment. I know if Ashton didn't look like the majority then he would not have gotten so far as he did. If Omorosa(I have little memory of her and no proof that she did go under the knife) did do it then she is proof that you have to look like the majority in the usa to get by. This is very unfair for the rest who don't look like the majority in the U.S.A.


I got to be honest though. It is hard to say you aren't black when your skin is physically black like hers. This is more of case of who would you hire on a tv show. Someone who looks more European or someone who looks more African. I think if you watch BET it is very clear. Switch from MTV to BET is almost a simple change of the skin tone. The people who get hired are very close to eurpean facial features at least for the women. Nothing wrong with european but I want everyone to be comfortable in what they look like and not face difficulties because they don't look like the majority. This is accidents aside like the woman who got her face ripped off dealing with a chimp in conn.

 

This is so true. However I'm with GZ on the plastic surgery issue if the person feels something doesn't suit them personally, and fixing it will improve their self-esteem and allow them to feel good about themselves, then I say go for it. If they do it to please themselves, rather than to fit some preconceived notion of what the world thinks is attractive, I think that's not a negative. I don't love my nose, I wish it were smaller and I think a smaller nose would fit my face, but it's just part of who I am so even though it'd be an easy fix, I've never pursued a nose job. But I don't suffer from lack of self-confidence, and to some people what they see in the mirror affects whether they feel comfortable and secure in the world. I wish people weren't like that, but it's just a fact of life that a lot of people are.

I don't find him even remotely attractive GZ. Even solely based on the physical, he'd be low average to me. That's the thing about attraction, it's very subjective.

He just looks ill to me now, like sickly pasty faced. Poor guy. But I'm lovin' that chick's dress.

 

I thinK I have seen her boob and botox job, it was kinda of Telvised, not sure about the nose tho.

Anyhoo, we are talking about any individual who has some assymetry and just correcting it, aint nutin wrong with that. That is not being a sell out or trying to be white/majority. The problem comes when you go crazy like MJ and few others.
Heidi Montag is white she had multiple surgery. Ashley simpson is white, she had a nose job, and guess what she looks fantastic after the job. Her nose is not crooked anymore, it fits her face very well and looks great. Even Ashley herself said she looks much better and that gave her great confidence.

 

Black women tell why they bleach their babies skin

 

This makes sense but it is still not relative. You usually compare and contrast to others. If you had met no one on earth and you had no one to compare your nose to. Would you get surgery? probably not since you are the only measure. You'd think it is fine.I understand the self esteem issue but that has to be fixed mentally and not physically. Sadly, there is a reality of very superficial people. People are going to do it any way. oh well

 

ok I got you!

 

I don't honestly know if that would be the case Archangel. I think some people really are just displeased with their appearance and it only matters to them what they look like, they don't seek to please anyone else. No one in my entire life ever made a negative comment on my nose, I just never loved it. I debated changing it several times, but it wasn't to look like anyone else, it just always seemed like it didn't suit my face to me, and I thought that from a fairly young age too. No idea why, it's just something I thought, and it had no basis in anything. I never went looking through magazines coveting other people's noses, I just always thought mine was a little off.

So truthfully I probably wouldn't like it if I was the only person on earth, who knows how many other people think like that? But you do raise a really interesting question with that.

 

I always felt like being dark skinned was a blessing you see everything
