  • A dark skin girl who loves herself and the way she looks with high self esteem is a beautiful and wonderful person to hang with. However, when u come across a dark skin who hates the way she looks, has low self esteem---- U BETTER WATCH OUT CUZ SHE WILL TAKE ALL HER SHIT OUT ON U.

    The lady said in school there was separation of light & dark girls---This cuz dark girls beat light girls up!

    The worst is dark skin girls so desperate to get a white man to get a light skin child . fucked up!

  • notice its ONLY the jacked up ugly dark skin women complaining about nobody wanting them. the dark skin dimes have no problem getting a man and get just as much play as the light skins. these women need to stop blaming their dark skin for why they don't have man and look in the mirror, especially the woman @ 7:51 ! she's unattractive and masculine! what man would want her on their arm when she looks like a dude?

  • As soon as I meet another black person and they start that light skin is better than dark skin stuff, I immediately dislike them.

  • New world blacks are low self-esteem pussys! i am ethiopian and i am proud of my dark skin hahaha what a bunch of idiots! lol i dont care what your fukcing skin color is!!

  • @colobobolon I understood that point, I get it. I just meant that for some, it's not their faults that they are not afforded the opportunity to love themselves the way others do. And yes, it is. Thank you so very much for the compliment! :)

  • @ngeri06 am not saying that because i have family living in the u.s and i know amerikkk is racist am just saying that latin america is even more racist almost all of our people are self hating by the way my sista if that is your picture on your channel you are beautiful very beautiful

  • @kamilleseven As far as black women in general from the south side same assessment as I gave my darker skin sistas. Im very eclectic when it comes to learning and experiencing new things I enjoy it, Im also very much into our own authentic traditions and aesthetic, and make no apologies about it, which brings me to the North side.I resided in Edge Water for 3 years It just wasn't my demographic for communal living at all the black woman were either gay,or into a plethora of other confusion.

  • @kamilleseven Well for me its like this, I've been in Chicago 12 years, the dark skin sisters "I find attractive" and that i come in contact with are either with brothas I perceive as the hood type, and on the opposite end of the spectrum some i've seen with white men. I find very view that at least on the surface that have self esteem issues, on the contrary they seem to be quite confident and some border on arrogant.

  • @davisismail1comcast hey you got me curious. Just read what you posted and I am wondering what you are thinking about south side girls myself. I am from Chicago and I am a south side girl. I have friends that live up north and we have notice some differences in behavior as well. Please let me know what you think.

  • @colobobolon I wish more people felt the way we do but sadly..too many do not see themselves positively reinforced in all that they interact with and are not afforded that opportunity. Anyone that thinks that U.S media portrays everyone fairly lives in a very very very small box under some rock somewhere.......so if that is what you are saying..you are largely misinformed. And if you live here in the states and are saying that...you must not own a television.
