Light Skin, Dark Skin Good Hair and Love - Sep 25,2008

Discussion of the influence of skin color and hair texture on romantic choices amongst African Americans. Why do Black folks continue to promote the caste system of the slave master, which provided preferential treatment to mulattos and quadroons? Why are Black women dying their hair blonde, using bleaching agents on their skin, wearing relaxers and blue and green contact lenses? Let's talk honestly about how skin color, hair texture and racial features impact selection criteria of African Americans, how you feel about yourself, and your perceived value as a romantic partner.

    Perfect point! Whatsoever racial group we belong, we should walk through the streets with our foreheads up. We should take pride of who we are. We should never forget of what racial group we belong to and we should not be ashamed of it.

    That is understandable that money makes people free. But what to do if someone does not have cash? The one way only is to receive the personal loans and term loan.

    The African Americans are very choosy when it comes to selection of their romantic partner. They go out to see the color of the skin and hair texture before settling down on someone. They always try to be like the Whites. They try to dye their hair, make their skin white by bleaching and wear contact lenses to change the color of the eyes. But why people are after such things. They should take pride in their racial group.

    We can distinguish what are the kind of nationality of a person through his color or skin. This is one asset that a person must have to be able to know in which country do they live.
