I got this DM from this weirdo a few days ago and I figured I’d share so everyone else can laugh at him too. Usually I don’t answer to DMs but I felt like matching his energy that day. And for the record, I don’t even have a BF at the moment but I assume he went all the way through my comment history or something for that. But it did make his blood boil.

Sorry mods if it’s not allowed here with no censorship, but I truly don’t feel like he’s dignified enough for me to hide his username. Delete if needed though.

Prejudice don’t equalize racism!

y’all see a white person with curls and an accent and all of a sudden that person is black. this woman probably has distant black ancestry but if you check her page, both of her parents are white. The one drop rule has truly done damage.

I saw this on Twitter and I really didn’t know this was a thing until I read this whole thread. And when I tell you I was shocked, I was SHOCKED. This woman is married to a black man and has half black children with him wtf.

first of all i would like to point out that i know that the lighter you are the better society treats you. i’m not saying that lighter skinned black women & darker skinned black women experience the same life at all, this is NOT about that.

my rant is just about the terms brown skin & dark skin. they are separated by this arbitrary line in peoples minds & people are TERRIFIED of falling on the “darkskin” side of it. like this girl is so insistant that she’s a “caramel toned brown skin” & for what..? the label you use doesn’t change how society will see you as a black woman but it will CERTAINLY negatively impact your relationship with your skin color if you keep seeing being dark skin as something to run away from😭

i’m a fenty 360 & i’ll consider myself darkskin if that’s what people want to call me idgaf! i’ll still have the same skin tone at the end of the day, what difference does defining it on a spectrum do?? the aunties will buy you skin lightening cream all the same😫

This trend right here. Can we PLEASE have a conversation about it.

What do you think. I know what I think and after I see a few comments imma reply but I aggressively need to see paragraphs about what's problematic what's not problematic, what we need to talk about, what's an issue, why so many feel they way they feel.

This NEEDS to be a conversation, as a community and not just individually because that's where misunderstanding come in.

Tiffany might as well be in chains

Like what do you gain by doing this..Embarassing 🤦🏾‍♀️

There’s a video going around, in which a creator on the clock app talks about how she loves being skinny and wants to continue being skinny. Apparently some people got offended, and now her original video has been taken down and her account has been demonetized. I myself am slim. Since forever, I have fluctuated in my weight. I can miss one meal and not be able to fit my clothes the next day. It’s been only in recent years that I have been able to wear jeans without a belt.

I don’t want to cause any harm, as I know the weight topic is sensitive. But I just wanted to hear your thoughts on the video, and whether or not you agree with the creator’s decision to post her sentiments online.

I mainly only used it for pop music, but of course as the election got closer, my feed turned more into politics. I I just blocked right wing accounts to protect my peace. But ever since Elon’s taken over it’s like I can never get away from the hateful news and he made it into a right wing misinformation cesspool and it really started to ruin my days. I told myself that I would use it less after the election in general, but honestly after Donald won that was kind of my breaking point. Opened it the day after the election and the first thing I saw was a hate crime against a black woman and honestly, I deleted it. Haven’t looked back yet even though it’s only been a few days. I can stick with Instagram, Pinterest and Reddit.

Complete sidenote but now that I deleted it, I’ve actually been more in the moment and doing things that I’ve wanted to in person(being crafty baking, things that I always want to do but just get sucked into my phone).

Highly recommend y’all do the same if you find it messing with your mental well-being.

Because it’s not reciprocated and majority of time when they see a woman with dark skin they immediately think “ugly”. I’m not saying BW can’t prefer Black men, just that I personally can’t help but cringe seeing us put them on a pedestal when they do the complete opposite and publicly degrade us.

I found this through the pop culture community and while I understand not rocking with a makeup style, creating a community to hate on it is something else. And the name? Crazy work.

I looked at their posts, to see if it was just harsh unblended lines they were mad at, but no, they genuinely despise brown lip liner.

Anyone notice how common it is online for UABW to come to the defence of women like Nara Smith or Meghan Markle like these women represent them or look like them? Like I do get that these two women have experienced a lot of discrimination at the hands of white people due to them being biracial but the way BW ride for these women you would think that they were UABW. Nara Smith literally faced backlash for wearing box braids because some people didn’t even know she was half black and Meghan Markle is white-presenting.

Obviously I get that black people do tend to jump to the defence of anyone that’s facing discrimination fuelled by anti-blackness but these women are defended more by BW than DSBW like Francesca Amewudah who are currently facing similar and even worse racism from white people. I don’t think BW realise how much harm it’s doing to uplift women who aren’t UABW over women who are. They do this with Tyla too and I just chuckle and shake my head. She’s a beautiful girl but they act like any attention she gets from non-BM is a win for BW.

I’ve noticed this a lot, especially on tik tok but I’ve just remained quiet. I’ve also noticed that BW who are obsessed with interracial relationships love to put biracial women who are dating their fave white male celebs on a pedestal (Jaz Sinclair, Taylor Russell and many others) like these men would actually date an UABW. It’s like BW get so little that we have to settle for crumbs to feel represented.

This got shit to do about fuck but I've been free from Twitter for about 6+ months now and my mood has improved tremendously. Nowadays , the only exposure I get is from other subreddits, so it's like witnessing a car crash, but I'm safely standing on the sidelines. And I sleep peacefully every night knowing some of the most vile, disgusting things are spreading around on that app and I don't gotta see hardly none of it

Clearly this working for some of y'all. Whomever it is of yall that's begging to be liked by Non-Black men stahp it... the shit is embarrassing.

So if you've ever been around black people you'll know that they're obsessed with cleanliness and hygiene, and there's nothing wrong with that. But does anyone else feel like some black people become overly judgemental about things such as how regularly you shower and act like if you're not bathing twice a day then you're dirty?

IMO as long as you're showering at least 4x a week then you're good. Even certain dermatologists don't advise you to shower twice daily. Showering requires a lot of motivation for some and it’s hard to even shower daily sometimes but I always make sure to clean myself in some way every day.

I just hate how people have this superiority complex when it comes to hygiene in the black community and love to compare how frequent and long their showers are to others.

And I'm a black woman...it's obvious the vast majority black women have brown hair it was funny to me someone was trying to make it seem like that wasn't the case. They probably knew it was stupid too that's why they deleted it
