Okay; I’ll Admit It. I’m Feeling Some Kinda Way about the New Doc, “Light Girls.”
I guess my question is. For those darker women with unresolved issues regarding your skin tone and your issues with light skinned women and who date IR – I’m curious as to how you can have a healthy relationship with your light and bi racial children?
It seems to me a lot of BW just want to keep this Colorism nonsense alive even when you claimed to remove yourself from atypical Black groupthink.
At some point it’s time to move on and develop a healthy esteem about yourself and stop with the constant division.

Colorism sucks. And dark skinned women and girls have had a tough time. Ok. But there comes a point in your life where as an adult. you need to move on and get over it and surround yourself with positive people and environments that embrace you.
If you have removed yourself from the black community and most thing typically dysfunctional I cannot understand why we are bringing this Colorism issue up.
It seems as if many BW are still seeking validation from the very BM and people you claimed to have moved on from. If you are interested in non BM who typically don’t care what shade you are, then why are you still harping on something that is done moreso by BM than non BM?

Neecy My impression is that many of the darker women who have issues with lighter women don’t consider light women to be black at all, and won’t consider their biracial children to be black either. I admit on other posts I have wondered how they would handle finding out that black women of ALL shades experience racism.

Well it just proves that a lot of BW just aren’t ready for what they say they are.
The issue if Colorism should hardly be duscussed on sites like these where BW “CLAIM” to have moved on from typical black peoples nonsense (like Colorism) and claim they are interested in dating/mating with non BM. yet colorism still constantly being brought up as if many if these women were still dating BM.
I can’t imagine how is feel if I were a WM on these sites who didn’t care about a BWs skin color and reading BW comments still grappling with this issue as adults. Also to say you could care little about how light skinned or mixed women feel would certainly raise a red flag with me (if I were a WM) because I’d be wondering if this mentality would transfer to his bi racial light kids from their mother.
