Do men prefer light-skinned women?

After reading the article "Do men prefer light-skinned women" has really made me wonder how African-American women think about themselves internally. Many women today are influenced by Media and feel as though they need to change their appearance on a consistant basis to get a man. One of the jaw-breakers that come to mind are the many similarities, yet few differences between light-skinned & dark-skinned women. Some dark-skinned females tend to feel like they need to "improve" their skin tone by using skin lighteners. I feel hurt because of being considered a dark-skinned woman, you should not only be proud of your skin but yourself as a person overall. Every individual has unique characteristics that set them apart from others and I believe skin tone should be the least of our worries. My favorite quote is "When you love the skin your in, you attract the strong, the meaningful, and the powerful "
Below is a slide-show presentation of beautiful dark-skinned Sistahs!!!

ReplyDeleteI believe no man will admit that they would perfer a lighter skinned woman over a woman that is of a darker skin tone. I think it has a lot to do with the media and what they portray on television to be beautiful! we are becoming more and more brain washed each day. As a female I would date any skin tone. I have noticed that dark skin men get looked at more in a positive way than a darker skinned women. Me being dark skin myself and having friends that are of a lighter skin tone I have experienced some hate from men. I wouldn't let what others think of me make me wanna change the way god created me. Everyones beautiful is different!
ReplyDeleteyes. the media definantly portrays light as being "right". but if u look many different "darker skin" females have done great things...
