Why are light skin girls more preferred?

anonymous17
I know there are some guys who like darker skinned girls but most of the guys I know would clearly state that they like light skin girls and would not date a dark skin girl. I'm just want to hear from guys especially black guys what the infatuation with lighter skin tones are. Because to me how dark or light your skin should not dictate who you date.
