Do you find darker skin people attractive too?

[Anonymous]

Honest answers only. Asking because I am dark skin and feel like my skin/features lead me to being rejected pretty often at a young age.

Yes, I’m attracted to darker skin people also

No, I’m not really attracted to darker skin people

I’m only attracted to darker skin people

I’m not completely unattracted but it would take a lot for me to date one

[Marklaw12]

The media does everything in their power to put dark skinned people down.

1. Phone cameras are only for white people. Black need to adjust the camera to make it just right before taking a picture
2. Makeups are just for white people until black people started making theirs
3. Hollywood uses black people criminals and most Best pictures don't have black people even as side characters. There was only one black person in Downton Abbey
4. The "what is a woman" a lot of black women are in office answering these questions and not knowing what a woman is
5. Black Americans fight wars that don't exist. They are still very backwards. At first I thought it was just them but apparently the system is actually rigged against them. Tulsa 1927 was burned down by white people cos they saw a black community striving and they got jealous. Also during that period, the government made sure to give lots of white people free houses whilst blacks were given lands which were taken back.
6. We all know in the 70s the government used blacks are drugs experiments by giving them cocaine and so much more to kill themselves. Coke and guns don't mix.
7. In most companies the higher you go the less the diversity. There's more blacks at the entry level. When you get to the tip, there are way more eyes on you.
8. Black people need to start helping themselves if they want to survive. There are lot of white people you are great people and want to help. Not all are your enemies.
9. Black people in power in the music industry take advantage of other blacks by doing them in the arse.
10. White people think Africa is a shithole, they don't know that white folks when there to set their flags on all its natural resources and kill their citizens if they don't obey. Africa is the biggest continent, most multicultural and has so much wealth
11. Australia white people killed all the black people to almost the point of extinction so they can rule the country. South Africa failed somewhat.
12. We need to help each other. We can't change the past but we can improve the future. Let that hate go.
X. XXX are the worst of the worst. They rule banking, ignite wars. There's a reason why XXX tried to wipe them all out. They are the most wicked demonic people. Every single leader in the legislation in America are all XXX. How come? You think they rule the world? Think again. 911 was during a XXX holiday conveniently

[davado88]

your point 11 is farcical. We couldntve killed all the blacks if we wanted to. Australia is a big fn country and very few blacks scattered around it. Most of the interior was inaccessible to white folks as it had no water. Blacks wandered this waterless interior for god knows what reason. How could we kill them?

[Marklaw12]

Like The White Americans killing the Red Indians to call it theirs.

It doesn't matter if they were starving or living like zombies. The fact is White people came there to wipe them out and succeeded.

How many black Australian actors are in Hollywood even in your Home and Away?

I love Westworth prison. Great show but how many black people are in it. If I went to your Australian prisons today there will be black people in there but you people couldn't use in your show.

Of course prison isn't something Blacks are proud of but we all know when they do little they get jailed whilst a White gets hit with a warning.

I really love American History X. Blacks are guilty no doubt but also a few are innocent..

Look at the pedos of today. Most White people that aren't getting jail time and those that are getting jail are being released due to overpopulated prisons. White people. In America a white pedo became a principal of an elementary school who decided to wear dress.

White people lying to be rich like Elizabeth Holmes Theranos. She became a billionaire on lies. A black person that's a billionaire is fully investigated to see if they are dodgy or not. White people don't get investigated.

Don't get me wrong every race is evil, very evil in fact but the difference is White people get away with it more often than not.

We are all bad people. We are born into sin but it's left to us to become better people rather than twist the truth.

It doesn't matter if the black people in Australia at the banks of the country or were savages. It was there country White people took.

by the way, I saw the Hugh Jackman Nicole Kidman film Australia that somehow got buried like it never existed directed by the one of my favourites Baz Luhrmann. I watch everything he directs its always beautiful.

[Marklaw12]

None of us have to feel guilty for anything, we shouldn't suffer for the sins of our fathers. Where they had hate let's have love. Be smart, don't let people guilt trip you but also don't pretend like there was nothing wrong.

[davado88]

i agree we wanted the country but im saying it wasn't possible to kill the darkies in the 1800s. Idve happily killed them, I've no moral objection
Good news is we got it but unfortunately its now full of 3rd worlders who immigrated in pite of the views of australians towards them.
Seems to me we have no power

[Marklaw12]

Damn, Davado I think we should leave it here before this gets out of hand.

We all have our views and opinions but I also believe if Whites didn't go invading those 3rd worlders wouldn't be in these countries.

White folks stole the 3rd world countries resources to use for themselves, they killed a lot of black people to get it. The same way Americans killed a lot of Arabs for their oil 🛢.

The fact is they will kill you just so they can lie to invade other countries.

You and I are collateral damage in the bigger scheme of thing. We are supposed to be useless.

One of my favourite films of all time is TDK.

"When soldiers go to world and they die no one cares". However, when they say the Queen is going to die everyone panics cos that is not supposed to happen.

The rich have programmed us to mediocrity. Maybe we should do the French revolution in our respective countries to take back power

[davado88]

of course we robbed the 3rd worldof its resources, White people invented the modern world and the contraptions that require resources in the first place.
its nothing to be ashamed of. on the contrary.
Would you prefer living a grass hut, eating what you killed? i sure as hell wouldn't

[Marklaw12]

Fair enough.

I believe we should all help each other then our communities, countries will grow exponentially rather than all these wars.

Right now USA is the worst country in the world.

[love_conquers_lust]

If that’s all you had to offer and there was nothing else to you, then no. I have a LOT more in common with white women that runs deeper than skin. That will be difficult for darker skinned women to overcome. So, if you’re overweight? No. Uneducated? No. Unable to think for yourself? No. Promiscuous? No. Desecrating your body regardless of complexion? No. Hood mannerisms? No. Guilt trip and neg me for being white? Big fucking no. Guilt trip me as intolerant for preferring white skin, which INCLUDES myself? Another big fucking no.

If you find white skin attractive, why can’t I? If you don’t care about skin color, again, why can’t I STILL find it attractive?

I love bringing up gender. Why are homosexuals and heterosexuals exclusive to one gender? Why do we tolerate that?

But, don’t worry. Once genetic engineering becomes mainstream, there is going to be an explosion of diversity. We actually should be prepared for genetically modified humans and how we can include everyone who are all natural verse test tube grown.

[love_conquers_lust]

And remember, I speak for myself here. Whatever connection I might feel is on me. I don’t know what other women might feel regardless of skin color, that’s their business.

[CubsterShura]

I am a Brown woman with medium-dark complexion and I haven't had a whole lot of issues with guys. Are there men who are prejudiced? Of course. But there are still enough men who are indifferent to or even attracted to dark skin tones for it to not really be an issue in dating. My boyfriend raves about my complexion and keeps telling me how exotic I look even though we're literally both the same ethnicity and his skin tone isn't too different from mine, though I might add that it's mainly his face and arms that are almost my skin tone due to tanning but the rest of his body is lighter than mine, and my skin is dark throughout.

[DizzyDesii]

I have dated the rainbow when it comes to skintones. I like it all. Yes I have a main preference for caramel (like the candy and like in the pics below) since that is my own skintone but that has never stopped me from giving someone of a lighter or darker complexion a chance. I’m more focused on the face, mindset, personality and overall attraction. Skintone is there but not necessarily a big deal. Its a minor factor if at all

[DaveJord]

Honestly, I can look at a darker skin woman, find her very attractive... but I have never dated one. But the I can just say that I have never met one that wanted to date me either.

Bottom line is that sexy women are sexy period.

[ManOnFire]

Lots of dark-skinned women are attractive. Me being a lighter skinned black man, I tend to lean towards darker skinned black women if I'm going to date them.

[MrOracle]

I've dated 2 girls darker than that. I don't care about skin color - that's meaningless. It's who a person is that matters.

[FellowTraveler]

How True, how very, very true!

[Summeroflove]

Yeah. Just remember everyone is different. Dark skin can be beautiful the same as any other skin tone.

[jennifer_bloom]

I find a lot of dark skinned guys attractive but I do not feel attraction to dark skinned girls. I'm not interested in women in general.

[Genie23]

Absolutely. Some of the most attractive people I've ever seen had dark complexion. Guys and girls, both.

[lazermazer]

Are you just saying to make her feel good?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

My ex had a tanned skin. I loved his shiny skin next to mine.

So, yep.

[glennos89]

Just for the record I'm a white male

And although I never had a dark skinned girlfriend before I do find some of them very attractive.

Sadly because of televisio, media and things that happened in the past makes me feel that white people aren't perticullairy on the "good" side of black people's feelings towards white people.

Things like rascism ( especially in the US) and apartheid give me the feeling that I'm being seen as "guilty" for all of that as well in the eyes of "black people". Ofcourse I know not all black people see things the same way and I definitely don't wanna generelise the whole black community for being the same because I know they are individuels aswell just like we all are.

But still I'm not really sure wether it's possible for me to date a dark skinned girl because I'm white. The media really fucked me up with that and although I know that my perception of this all isn't where it should be because I do now better then that.

But nevertheless it is putting a wall up for me inside when it comes to dating sadly. I'm ashamed how white people threatened the black community and although I never have and never will support these actions from white people towards black people... I'm still born white so I can't help feeling guilty for the behaviour of my own skin coloured people 🙈🤦🏻‍♂️

I hope my story makes sense to you but to finish it off... Yes I'm attracted to dark skin people and I'm also very curious to find out how dating with a black person feels like but I'm scared I won't be accepted by the community because I'm white 😳😇🙈

[FellowTraveler]

@glennos89 -sage advice and sad statement about today's American reality - or perception.

[zeitgeist057]

I feel what you wrote, and there's a more even to the cultural disconnect than just the past oppression. It's pretty hard for a white person to get by in a black community, even if they are fully or mostly adopting black culture as their own, there will still be some friction.

[DizzyDesii]

@glennos89 I am black, and trust, the majority of us are not bothered by dating another race, especially white. Yes my main preference is my own but a good man is a good man and I have dated the rainbow of men. Its really just most of the baby boomer generation, some bitter people in gen x, and a lot of politically brainwashed gen z’s who will make smart comments about skintones/race. A lot of Millenials have always been open to interracial dating. Dont give up. Just choose your target wisely. The ones who are heavy into social media will be the ones who talk shit. Go for someone who stays away from that crap

[glennos89]

@DizzyDesii Thanks for the advise. Appreciate it a lot. I guess all races have their community's with open minded people in it and with rotten apples in it aswell😅

I understand that your preference goes out to dating your own race, I feel the same way tbh.
But anyways Im still on a mission to find out if the phrase "once you go black you never go back" is truth or just a hoax 😋😇

[DizzyDesii]

Yea but dont actually say that to the girl because she’ll get turned off and think you’re just fetishizing. Like i said, my main preference is my own, but a good man is a good man. And well my man is currently white 🤷‍♀️

[glennos89]

No ofcourse not 🤣. If a woman would say that to me I would probably start running as fast as I can to get away as well 🏃💨

But I totally agree with you... a good woman is a good woman no mather how they look or which skin color she has. Good woman are pretty hard to find anyways these days if you would ask me. Or maybe I'm just to picky that's also possible 😅

[davado88]

what exactly attracts you to them? the simian looks? the b. o? their stupidity? their lack of morality?
Jesus. h/ Please stop lying everyone. NOONE WANTS TO LIVE NEAR BLACKS. thats an extremely easy fact to verify.
Here they live in the bush or the country in a different section of town.
In u. s. a. they live in differen suburbs. I know because i went to u. s. a. Saw it with my own eyes.
One suburb has malls that are full of decen white folks and the next has a mall full of darkies.
Why are people too gutless to be honest? grow some balls

[zeitgeist057]

@davado88 it's not that (all) people are "too gutless to be honest". Believe it or not, not everyone has the same opinion/perspective as you.
Firstly, I would say you are in a minority when it comes to making broad generalizations about an entire group of people. You talk about stupidity. Do you think all white people are smarter than all black people? Really? Carl Sagan, W. E. B. DuBois, there's a huge list of reputed black scientists, and then we can go into successful business people as well as talented artists. They not only outshine the general majority, but even the elites of their industries.

So making generalizations like that is a bit... misguided and misinformed.

I do believe there are plenty of people who share your opinions (a. k. a racists), who are indeed to cowardly to state their opinions publicly, because they are at least smart enough to know it's a losing battle vs. the majority. You seem to feel that your 'bravery' is more valuable.

Secondly, race is a social construct. There is literally no evidence there are differences in intelligence or morality or anything that makes a human, human. The differences are merely phenotypical, like having more or less melanin in your skin, or minor variations in body like facial features (nose, eyes, lips, hair, &c.) but having or lacking an epicanthic fold doesn't make a person more or less human. Some of what you complain about is cultural, but a person can have any melanin level and still be part of a culture (though there can be friction as I mention above, that has to do with what @DizzyDesii attributes to generational throwbacks).

[davado88]

@zeitgeist057 what a load of crap. Every iq test by race showed that average negro iq is that of a retardeded person. Which is why they dont test by race anymore.
Which is why no negro in history has ever invented ANYTHING.
God cursed negroes to be nothing more than manual labourers in the book ofjoshua.
Safe to assume he did this by making them morons.
Race isn't a social construct you buffoon. Its the logical extension of a tribe.
just as a tribe is the extension of a family.
People have sex- create more people.
its not rocket surgery

[zeitgeist057]

@davado88 you're ignoring facts and writing falsehoods.
A list of 120 inventions: dailyhive.com/seattle/inventions-by-black-people
You're putting forth a very simpleminded argument that relies heavily on delusion.
Predictably, you have also resorted to name calling in your argument, which means this will be the last attempt at civil conversation with you. Most black people I've interacted with have been superior to you in manners, for a start.

[davado88]

@zeitgeist057 i called you a buffoon from memory because you stated that race is a social contruct.
Which it so obviously is not then i explained exactly what race is,
That seems to have burst the bubble of your bizzare ideas and this i assume has rendreder you discombobulated so you're taking your dolly and running home.
Please dont try to suggest i am rude or that my rudeness is the cause of that discombobulation.

[davado88]

your ego is what has been threatened. If thats a new experience or you're of low character, its normal to react irrationally.
If you're interested to learn exactly how and why your ego was hurt, kindly ask and ill walk you through it. Clue-- youve been brainwashed

[zeitgeist057]

@davado88 you're completely and laughably off-track with your conjectures and assumptions. I am not nor have been even remotely threatened, irritated, or any other ego-based emotion. I've been civil and I simply have made a boundary to promote rational discussion. I'm starting to believe that may be beyond you.

Name calling does not constitute an argument, and in no way did you shake or address the fact that race is a social construct. This is like trying to deny a mathematical proof that 2 + 2 = 4 by calling your professor a doo-doo head and then trying to gaslight him into believing his feelings were hurt by your childish antics. I'm having none of it.

Though in my experience, it is interesting to see the ways in which people expose their own inner workings when they begin to accuse others. It is the thief who is most keenly on the lookout for a robbery, the liar who most often accuses others of twisting the truth, and the cheater who watches the deck closely, expecting some sleight of hand.

[Anonymous]

My best friend has dark skin and she is probably one of the prettiest people I know. If I liked someone personally that wouldn’t even be a factor tbh. Whenever you look into the mirror next focus on the features you like about yourself and as far as skin tone goes I wouldn’t worry about it. All tones are beautiful on different people and that is not something that will ever take away from your beauty. Feature wise I don’t know what you look like but we are our worst critics. Don’t be hard on yourself and get it out of your head that it is holding you back. You will meet someone who appreciates everything you have to offer

[andreasderjuengere]

Quite a while back I joked:

pick one...

... and only few people chose the milk 😁

Personally, I find dark skin extremely attractive.

However - and to be honest: Women with -erm- African genetics

(damn!: 'Political correctness' makes saying innocent things so difficult nowadays)

often have a tendency to have an oversized butt - which is something that I'm not compatible with :) - but that's entirely unrelated to my perception of skin colour in general.

[Radiate143]

I think South Sudanese women, really dark Jamaican and Senegalese women are a beauty ideal in my eyes. Really dark skin is always so flawless. The men and women always have these really sculpted Negroid features that I can just stare at for hours. For relationships, my mentality and West African guys mentality never jived and I am culturally too close to Caribbean people for the relationship keep me intrigued. You have to accept that we live in a world that idolized Eurocentric beauty ideals. That shouldn't affect how you view yourself. Also, thebpeople that love and like you aren't thinking about this. If you are into white guys for serious relationships then this can be tricky since most of them have issues with kinky hair and find dark skin too far away from their ingrained beauty ideals. But don't be discouraged.

[Peanutbutter1221]

Definitely attracted to darker men

The only thing is, culturally it's something that growing up was a taboo, if I even hug a black man people would fuss about it

But I've really wanted to try hit it off with one but sadly haven't had the chance and usually I get scared so I chicken out

But sweets if someone judges you based on your skin tone, consider yourself lucky that you've checked them out early and didn't waste your time

[Datboi65]

I'm Black and I only go for women of my race. I do actually prefer dark skin and brown skin women over light skin, but that's my preference.

I think when it comes down to it you need to learn to love yourself instead of focusing on what others think. Sounds cliché, but it's true. You cannot change the features you were born with and neither should you want to, God created you that way for a reason.

[HappyWoman34]

You’re still very young. Younger men try to follow the blonde barbie type, until they get older. Men who are looking to settle down will talk to you, get to know you. Not push for sex. You’ll meet these men at church, on some dating sites and through mutual friends, hobby groups and college.

[lightbulb27]

some. It's much more about their personality and who they are than looks.

attitude, in any color, is disgusting. and it's generally not their fault for bad attitude, but that of their environment and traumatic experiences. they have a lot of control over their attraction, but may require work to see beyond their environment and find their better self.

ditto for any color.

[ShadezMcgee]

Honestly, dark skinned women were hit and miss for me when I was single. Being mixed I was attracted to mixed girls more, but a couple of darker girls caught my eye, but the personality has to be there. The ones I liked were great personality and taken, so I honestly wouldn't worry too much about it.

[catarecute]

i have dated sort of two black skin guys and they were both controlling. i dont pick dates on looks but personality. i have tanned skin and i wouldn't change my skin colour. i think tanned skin is beautiful on men and women. black skin is beautiful too. but i date based on personality tbh.

[soe11]

I do, depending on...

• Dark smooth shinny chocolate colour.
• Oval long face, big eyes, thin long nose.
• The boobs average size with peanut nipples.
• Flat stomach inny belly button.
• Curvy pussy shape with puffy camletoe.
• Long smooth shinny legs.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Yeah if she's attactive and into the same hobbies and interests as me.

Skin color is isn't a factor in my selection choice. I am fond of very thick soft hair though, and while thats not very common in people with darker skin, it's not unheard of either.

[Anonymous]

honestly, darker skin is so gorgeous. don't let anyone tell you different.

i'm white, but my partner is Asian, a darker skin toned Asian. i know it's different from your situation. but i just don't like dating white guys because they have always came off as douches towards me. i'm not attracted to white men at all. everyone has their preferences tho.
