Beyonce goes white

[needtogetarmy]

Some very "African" looking black women are very hot. Iman and Grace Jones come to mind.

+2 both are hawties.

I think really dark black chicks (and I mean dark) are very hot and exotic. This whole blacks needs to lighten their skin is so 1950ish. Look at the grocery store magazine counter and you will see a plethora of magazines, Jet, Ebony etc. that solidly support people of color. Whites simply don't give shit. This is nothing but perceived racism - not de facto.

It's not just perceived racism, it's real. You should check out http://www.racialicious.com once in a while. They cover how even dark skinned comic book characters have gotten progressively lighter over the years.

That's Beyonce's real skin tone, she's been darkening it all these years.

This has nothing to do with Obama and everything to do with the fact that in this country white is right. Most black women are well aware they have to fit the white standard of beauty - light skin, narrow noses, smaller hips.

No they don't "have to", but oddly they do choose to. Beyonce has been gradually making herself over into the dominant white culture beauty ideal for years now. Same thing Jennifer Lopez starting doing about 10 years ago. She used to be as brown as me, with an ass the size of mine, now she's several shades lighter, has lighter hair, a more caucasion nose, and she's skinnier. Precisely the same pattern as Beyonce.

Indeed I have. Long, long way from her Nefertiti style headgear to her current white woman from suburbs look.

These chicks need to stop that BS then. I really do not see a reason why they should.

this is true. i have known a few girls....and guys who have gone this road. it seems they can't accept themselves as they as. new a girl who would get her body hair lightened, so she would look "lighter". and ones that would avoid anything that was percieved "black culture"

i truly do not understand. society? media? what? i love my skin color and texture...smooth, soft, and suple and i truely don't understand why some of these lady would want to change that.
