I am a dark skinned black woman and I think dark skinned black men AND women have skin color complexes equally. Although I am dark, I was never made fun of because of my skin tone but I've seen it happen to others who are dark skinned. I remember I dated this guy who CONSTANTLY got fucked with because of his skin tone but I thought he was cute. He had dimples and a nice smile. I wonder where he's at now lol
Dark skin is sooooo sexy. And so is white skin. But I think people with coco skin just do it to brighten there complexion. I have like fair skin I do it because I personally don't look good with dark skin(I came out orange) but I like bleach it because I like Light skin on me. :D xx
sorry dude i dont think africans can tan, people who tan are usually medateranian because they needed to be light coloured in the winter to absorb more vitimin D otherwise they risk defficiency but in the summer they risk absorbing too much so they evolved the ability to tan to get the best of both worlds. thats why people with celtic decentt just turn red, they never evolved this ability since they didnt need it. same for you but in opposit it looks like your stuck with a lighter body :)
As far as skin bleaching, I would do it--as a black man. Not because I want to be white or light skinned. But because I would rather be my natural complexion/tone, which I'm not. Living in Florida, combined with having a skin condition that has caused dark spots and an uneven skin tone, I would use a bleaching agent just to get my skin back to its original state. But if I woke up light skinned, I would probably be depressed for months, because i wasn't born light skinned.
@Refining1 You obviously have self hate issues and you're trying to justify bleaching your skin by saying you're just trying to get back to your original color.
@MushydeeTV U KNOW DAMN WELL contacts make black people look scarey. Ive been in love with a black greay eyed girl but pute grey contact lenses in the eye of a black girl of all complexions and it dnt look right... you can tell the difference between contacts and eye eyes thats why their a no no
You are a dark skinned black man of which makes you more accepted. You can embrace your skin color because you see yourself on television, movies, and on the radio. Men your color prefer lighter skinned women and not the same complexion as themselves. We dark skin women don't see ourselves represented or loved in the media. So stop the bullshit. It's black men who are racist against dark skinned women. That's why we bleach. You men are accepted the way you are. We are not!
Say what u like i went through alot being this dark so u can take ur shit ansd shove it, i said everything u said accept for the black men not represented... no not really, when was the last black male u seen in a roll like will smith that banked 200mill -__-... Blade and that shit was 98' black men are betrayed as bad guys and all types of shit watch a tyler perry movie b4 u comment the back
@KILLcolorstruck At least you are in movies. Name a dark skinned black woman that was considered beautiful and played the lead role. Keisha Knight Pulliam played in a successful movie and didn't get any recognition from the black community. Lauren London played in that flop ATL and the black community places her on a pedestal. There isn't one successful female entertainer as dark as Akon, Tinchy Stryder, or Diddy . You dark men can find dates easier than we dark women. We have it worse!
@MsAlexandrathegreat1 Tyler Perry's 'For Colored Girls' just opened at 20.1 mil the first weekend. and this film features Whoppi Goldberg and Kimberly Elise who are both considered 'dark-skin' women.
@MsAlexandrathegreat1 u have a valid point sister, but think about da side effect. im afrikan n women in afrika do da same thing n i have 2 tell u after certain time dey start 2 smell really bad n da chemical burns da skin aswell. so do u wanna love urself 4 who u r n say 2 hell with everdody else r u wanna put urself in da position where u could b hated 4 da rest of ur life bcuz ur beautiful black skin was destroy.
the question is not which colour you have.it is what you make of yourself.i know that black people have that genetic to get fast and more muscles than white people. just look how many africans take it too soocer proofs in the highest leauges of europe. and if you get or have that muscles like usher for example, you dont need to be white ,that makes you better looking than the most white man.i wouldnt have any probs if i were black. its what you amde of yourself.and surgery is for loser
they always say the whole light skin vs. dark skin theory was created by 'them' to separate us. but most black people are the ones who can't let it go and keep it going. we are ALL in the 'system' regardless! look at T.I. and Tiny's recent arrest in L.A. after getting pulled over. now was the police officer 'less afraid' when he approached the car after seeing 2 light-skin black people? well only they could speak on that of course. but in the end both were taken into custody and charged.
@KILLcolorstruck well the majority of your video is anti-bleaching, so i was just giving some reasons why some black people might bleach. some may think it will be 'easier' so to speak in society if they were lighter skinned. so i was just using celebrities T.I. and Tiny as an example that's all.
Too all the white girls tanning and all the black girls bleaching their skin all i have to say is the grass on the other side of the fence is not greener
trust me U aint that blackest ni'v been to africa and im only 16 i been dowb to ghana they got people who are black like the coler black but i dont care doa they african they my people BLACK POWER
not all whites or white latinas,couse they are also white skin use tanned cremes2nd &to sit in the sun is a naturaly way making themself darker!they are many white skin humans like charlize therone,scarlett johansson,christina aguilera or white beautiful latinas which look just so handsome that it doesn't matter if their would use a tan creme!even the whites use tan cremes they don't wanna be to much dark,they prefer the hawaian light olive colour!bleeching the is worser4 skin than tan it!
Your humor is great. I had to ask someone close to me, what is wrong with looking African. I was born African, I stays African. I ain't trying to be white, but they was trippin. They, being African, couldn't understand the concept of accepting one's African identity.
some good strong points..2 things: 1. what would you say to a white guy who wants to tan VERY dark. 2. What kind of bleaching were you talking about to get rid of blemishes? haha
Brother, I'm with you. The colored contacts and blonde hair on black women is sad. Shows their self hate mentally. If you love yourself, you wouldn't want to emulate someone else. The white man has done a job on us for life. I love me, and I love dark brothas! You are beautiful. Stay black, stay strong!
im black as hell ... and happy ... im lately finding out about about ppl bleaching ... im still trying to fiture out why ppl would wanan bleach their skin ... im black as a mofo and happy yippieee
Dark skin helps protect against skin cancer that develops as a result of ultraviolet light radiation, causing mutations in the skin. Dark skin prevents an essential B vitamin, folate, from being destroyed. White Australians have some of the highest rates of skin cancer as evidence of this expectation.
Research shows that black people recover faster from injury than other races(melanin, anyone?)
All humans originate from East Africa. Educate yourselves folks!
lmfao! You are a character. I do not think skin bleaching is wrong because it makes those happy that want to enhance/improve their skin color. What ever makes them happy, I'm all for it. Honestly, I do not care what the next person does to them self physically unless it is harmful then I'm concerned. Thanks for sharing you thoughts!
@neutralification. wow, you basically said that you agree with bleaching if it improves the persons look, but as long as its not harmful. uuurrmm does the the word "BLEACH" mean anything to you?
@tag1989. I personally used skin bleaching products that contained either hydroquinone, retin-a, kojic acid and/or AHA & have yet experienced any serious side effects besides fading post-acne marks. Which is a (+) effect as far as I am concerned. I'll pick having even tone skin over blotchy skin any day. Born with olive colored skin but now tan due to being active out doors. Think of me as u want, but as long as I'm happy w/ myself @ the end of the day then that's all that matters.
...wow! i commend you for this video. I have NEVER heard a male touch bases on bleaching skin. Im not going to lie, i do use ambi fade cream from time to time for acne scars ONLY!!! I LOVE my skin tone and wouldnt want it any other way, but i do not love the scars, so that is the ONLY reason why i woulld recommend fade cream.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I say if you want to Bleach your skin then Bleach it. Its your business and nobody elses. All these dumb bastards who say dont it dont it. All I have to say is if a person is homeless are you going to pay their rent? The is answer hell no. This is America not Africa, this is about looking for number one (you) because nobody else is to take care of you but YOU.
Looking out for you sometimes get's you into trouble. Skin bleaching can cause everything from extreme hyper-pigmentation, to skin cancer. It also causes skin sensativety. and blochyness. Not to mention that it takes away from your natural beauty. Have you seen Lil Kim and so many others. It is so sad. How is bleaching your skin looking out for yourself? It is a "Vanity Issue", not a "Basic Needs" issue.
With the tanning thing, I quote Paul Mooney, "Everybody wanna be a nigga, but don't nobody wanna be a nigga". They want black features, but no black experience. Truest shit ever told.
@sugacookiegetta It's so true. I sit at school and see all of the white girls tanning, getting lip injections, butt and breast implants for curves, using all of their anti aging methods for young skin. Curves, youthful skin that doesn't crack, full lips--all of these are black features.
all this color shit is implimented, preferred , and suggested by white culture. It may get you ahead, but you are still black and the white people know it. It ain't nothing but self-hate. It used to be a survival method back in Jim Crow times, but those days are gone. People still jump off the sidewalk when I turn a corner, but I can get a job. It's personal now. I only think it matters in big business, in that old "white-man's" club of world ownership as far as opportunity is concerrned.
@nextstep333 If you feel the need to lighten your skin to be accepted, you're a really really sad person. Self hating people like you shouldn't be allowed to breed. You just complicate the world and infect others with your self hate.
No, everyone in my family is light, except me, second who are you to decide who breed and who does not, i actually like my self, the reason why I am doing bleaching is the same reason why people tan their skin, too like nice!
Don't get me wrong Dark skin looks really nice on people, just not on me because, as a European, i need to have lighter skin.
@nextstep333 Lightening your skin is stupid for many reasons. The main reason being, everybody knows you weren't born that way. Second reason being, that white people will never fully accept you and if you lighten your skin to imitate them they will just laugh at you and treat you like the inferior misfit you are. I've seen it happen over and over again. Try to be white and white people will let you know that you are not part of their crowd.
i dont need to lighten my skin, so where did u get that information from?
and princess11222 was right u are selfhating and ud most probably brainwash ur kids, which is fine, but just remember no matter what shade of black u are, white people will always see u as nigger.
Good video. . but you're only talking from a laidback guy's point of view.
There's more pressure to tan/bleach your skin if you're a woman.
Men simply don't have it as hard as us, and are not judged as harshly on their looks. For men, it's mostly about wealth and success. But for women, it's about looks.
Lil' Kim was doing that shit, it's just disrespectful to our people. I'm a very light brother, but in my opinion, I love black skin, I love dark skin women they're just beatiful, but when they bleach, because they feel, that being black isn't good enough it hurts me man.
I know, but just because I'm light doesn't mean I look good, I feel that no one should be criticize because of how dark or light your skin is,god made you in his vision, HIS vision so when your maded fun of because of that it's like spitting in his face. btw. Michael didn't bleach he was diagnosed Vitiligo and Lupus.
ok look at letoya lucketts video not anymore im am her skin color and i love it i think thats the preittest color in the world to you may not but whatever color u r u r beautiful
that pic scard me like he looks big i use bleach .. but for blemishes otherwise i wouldnt use it i rather be dark with clear skin they be light with scars personally i perfer dark skin women over black..its kinda crazy but i think of them as meat they aint cook all the way..light skin women anyways
This problem is even bigger in Asian countries like India. heck they go further now for example the Indians look for white women or men etc so their child will be more white
None of this makes sense because even the most racist white man will quicker fuck Beyonce over any fat ass white woman anyday anytime
If women want a solution to this then get slim, eat healthy, educate yourself, get rid of ghetto mentality drink lots of water. This is the cure to low self esteem and beauty not skin bleach
lol all black ppl got natural muscel you know why we are stronger yeah i said it i mean when we train for like a few eeks we already got more muscel its just how we black men are
i'm glad you mentioned about white girls tanning. idk i think it's interesting how white girls want to be darker and as you said that black girls/people want to be lighter. i guess just something that isnt meant to be understood
Brother. You are so so real and true.I..I..dude. Please write a book. This is just awesome. You're so fucking real and honest. i give you a 10 out of 10
well thats your opinion but it dont make u correct because by u sayin black is beatifful is like u sayin that your attracted to every black male and female just because there black.
however that is not the case with me b/c i do not consider a whole race of any ppl to be all considered as all atractive.
there ugly ppl in every race like i say beatifull is beautiffull, ugly is ugly face it
I agree, theirs aguly, white, light , brown or dark people and their are pretty people in those colors as well. If your ugly your ugly no skin color is going to change that.
And man i dnt trust them skin bleachin products, thers pple back home that hav burnt, blotchy, nasty lookin skin coz they used this product in the 70's called Ambi, its the saddest thang coz now they look terrible. I'm proud to be african and more power to u for posting this!!!
haha, lovin this! Im african, as in i was born and raised in Africa (zimbabwe to be exact) and that whole 'dark is ugly' thing is back home too, and thats sad. i mean we are the motherland and we tryna get light?! i think a lot of that is from being brainwashed by the british that colonised a lot of africa, perhaps being told ur dark skin is ugly for so long pple start believin it, but its time to embrace that and personally i like that skin tone on u.
damn you are so true.. I seen this black lady in my school today she was the fakest person I seen fake hair and green eyes she looked scary ass hell .....and she really thinks she look good with it....people need to learn how to love themselves and accept what we don't have..I ROCK MY NAPPY HAIR WHEN I GO OUT ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDD! LOL people love it btw :P
Now, I see what you're talking about! I didn't know you had a whole video about the topic. I didn't know skin-bleaching was even an issue in America until I saw Tyra Banks on the today show recently. But, it sounds like one of those many women enhancements that mostly the stars use like breast emplants, and so on so forth. But, very touchy video though!
sup fams, its not so much light skin is better. people are leaning to a middle tone. And all honesty that should be the goal. we should all mix to some extent.
Wouldn't bleaching your skin, and perming your hair fall under the same catagory? I'm just asking, cause people tripping mad hard about the skin bleaching, but look at it as though it as (relaxer) they are talking about! Why don't we 'flip out' about the perm???? I don't get it!
I mean some times its hard to take care of our kinky hair. I watch my sister trying to take care of it when she was younger and it was so frustrating for her.
She wanted to cut it off but then she didnt want to be picked on. she already felt it was bad enough she was picked on for being "too black" so yeah. when she permed it finally it was good to her. Honestly, I prefer a woman to go natural but i dnt count out the "relx-er" chix... contacts, perms, & bleaching is all bad to me
my dude, everytime i watch a video wit sumbody talkin i, i dont look @ da whole thing i kinda skim thru it but i gotta say i actually sat here n watch da whole fuckin thing, keep doin yo shit my dude. Black Power lol
yeah kontact lenses do look kreepy on somepeople.. i think it really looks weird when your eyes are Obviously Brown and someone smacks blue kontacts over em and it just looks like death pretty much.. I mean im not going to lie and say i havent worn Kontacts before because i have and they actully looked pretty nice but that was my first and last time kuz i already kant stand a eye lash in my eye so.. i kudnt spend my days on just trying to put ONE in lolol
the problem is everyone wants what they dont have, for example, girls with curly hair spend $300 to have straight hair for 3 months at a time... girls with white skin get tans, all that stuff, its kind of what keeps the world going, they're all striving for something they dont have, i dont take it that far but some girls go to extremes to get what they werent born with
Sorry young man..that you ever went through low self esteem because of your skin color. It's truly beautiful. But you have no reason to feel bad about it, white America spends millions trying to not have fair skin. Just spend your time on school and achieving..and stop the cussing...you're a very handsome man. And some people need skin bleach for skin discolorations.
Definitions of White: -Slang. decent, honorable, or dependable: That's very white of you. -auspicious or fortunate. -morally pure; innocent. -without malice; harmless: white magic. Definitions of Black: -gloomy; pessimistic; dismal: a black outlook. -deliberately; harmful; inexcusable: a black lie. -boding ill; sullen or hostile; threatening: black words; black looks. Subliminally that's where people get this idea from that black is bad and white is pure. Black is beautiful! Period.
i really love your videos because your real and you dont front about stuff .yes i agree that skinn bleaching is rediculos im dark skinned and i would neevr bleach my skin .i love my self and who eevr cant accept it they can go jump off .lol but i mean its stupid you are made the way you are for a reasson .people these days are brained washed with what they see in movies or on tv .
a real person who atleast has common sense would know that bein light skinn is the only beauty there is.
lmao @ the shit is creepy NO BULLSHIT!! and I could not agree more. Skin bleaching is dumb as hell. lol @ you needing to tan the rest of your bod. I feel you. My legs are lighter than the rest of me. That's right Jon embrace your natural beauty :)That lighter is more beautiful crap is just stupid because i see light skin ugly people every day lmfao BROWN IS FUCKING BEAUTIFUL!! Great Vid Jon
Girl, i can go on about this 4 hours. I'm taking a phylosophy class. i can surely explain the basis of why people do things lol. ugh it gives me a head-ache just to think, y cant we all accept ourselves. lol
but then again, it's good dat people talk about this. Maybe then people will see how ridiculous dey are 4 following "the media" which is all fake.
i wished all of "those individuals" knew dat we all know, how ridiculous dey are. Then dey would b emberassed & be themselves.
Very dark skinned men are exstremely sexy! Whoever said they weren't told a big lie!

I say if you want to Bleach your skin then Bleach it. Its your business and nobody elses. All these dumb bastards who say dont it dont it. All I have to say is if a person is homeless are you going to pay their rent? The is answer hell no. This is America not Africa, this is about looking for number one (you) because nobody else is to take care of you but YOU.

Looking out for you sometimes get's you into trouble. Skin bleaching can cause everything from extreme hyper-pigmentation, to skin cancer. It also causes skin sensativety. and blochyness. Not to mention that it takes away from your natural beauty. Have you seen Lil Kim and so many others. It is so sad. How is bleaching your skin looking out for yourself? It is a "Vanity Issue", not a "Basic Needs" issue.

With the tanning thing, I quote Paul Mooney, "Everybody wanna be a nigga, but don't nobody wanna be a nigga". They want black features, but no black experience. Truest shit ever told.
sugacookiegetta 2 years ago
@sugacookiegetta It's so true. I sit at school and see all of the white girls tanning, getting lip injections, butt and breast implants for curves, using all of their anti aging methods for young skin. Curves, youthful skin that doesn't crack, full lips--all of these are black features.
princess11222 2 years ago
all this color shit is implimented, preferred , and suggested by white culture. It may get you ahead, but you are still black and the white people know it. It ain't nothing but self-hate. It used to be a survival method back in Jim Crow times, but those days are gone. People still jump off the sidewalk when I turn a corner, but I can get a job. It's personal now. I only think it matters in big business, in that old "white-man's" club of world ownership as far as opportunity is concerrned.

What you don't understand is that Spaniards like me have friends that are northern European white! We sometime take drastic measures to be accepted!
Second why do people get tanning lotion to tan themselves? It is the same reason why sometimes people need to lighten there skin!
nextstep333 2 years ago
no most people lighten skin b/c they hate themselves or see being dark as a disadvantage -_-
KILLcolorstruck 2 years ago
@nextstep333 If you feel the need to lighten your skin to be accepted, you're a really really sad person. Self hating people like you shouldn't be allowed to breed. You just complicate the world and infect others with your self hate.
princess11222 2 years ago
No, everyone in my family is light, except me, second who are you to decide who breed and who does not, i actually like my self, the reason why I am doing bleaching is the same reason why people tan their skin, too like nice!
Don't get me wrong Dark skin looks really nice on people, just not on me because, as a European, i need to have lighter skin.
nextstep333 2 years ago
@nextstep333 Lightening your skin is stupid for many reasons. The main reason being, everybody knows you weren't born that way. Second reason being, that white people will never fully accept you and if you lighten your skin to imitate them they will just laugh at you and treat you like the inferior misfit you are. I've seen it happen over and over again. Try to be white and white people will let you know that you are not part of their crowd.
princess11222 2 years ago
@nextstep333
"as a european u need to have lighter skin"?
what a load of bullshit. im european and
i dont need to lighten my skin, so where did u get that information from?
and princess11222 was right u are selfhating and ud most probably brainwash ur kids, which is fine, but just remember no matter what shade of black u are, white people will always see u as nigger.

Good video. . but you're only talking from a laidback guy's point of view.
There's more pressure to tan/bleach your skin if you're a woman.
Men simply don't have it as hard as us, and are not judged as harshly on their looks. For men, it's mostly about wealth and success. But for women, it's about looks.

Lil' Kim was doing that shit, it's just disrespectful to our people. I'm a very light brother, but in my opinion, I love black skin, I love dark skin women they're just beatiful, but when they bleach, because they feel, that being black isn't good enough it hurts me man.

ok but you're light skin so you have no idea what lil' kim, michael, trina, and others maybe went through growing up darker skin.

I know, but just because I'm light doesn't mean I look good, I feel that no one should be criticize because of how dark or light your skin is,god made you in his vision, HIS vision so when your maded fun of because of that it's like spitting in his face. btw. Michael didn't bleach he was diagnosed Vitiligo and Lupus.

This problem is even bigger in Asian countries like India. heck they go further now for example the Indians look for white women or men etc so their child will be more white
None of this makes sense because even the most racist white man will quicker fuck Beyonce over any fat ass white woman anyday anytime
If women want a solution to this then get slim, eat healthy, educate yourself, get rid of ghetto mentality drink lots of water. This is the cure to low self esteem and beauty not skin bleach

Wouldn't bleaching your skin, and perming your hair fall under the same catagory? I'm just asking, cause people tripping mad hard about the skin bleaching, but look at it as though it as (relaxer) they are talking about! Why don't we 'flip out' about the perm???? I don't get it!

I mean some times its hard to take care of our kinky hair. I watch my sister trying to take care of it when she was younger and it was so frustrating for her.
She wanted to cut it off but then she didnt want to be picked on. she already felt it was bad enough she was picked on for being "too black" so yeah. when she permed it finally it was good to her. Honestly, I prefer a woman to go natural but i dnt count out the "relx-er" chix... contacts, perms, & bleaching is all bad to me
