I wish I was mixed raced?

[Anonymous]

I wish I was mixed raced. Mixed with either white and black or South East Asian and black. They are not too pale like white people and they’re not too dark like black people. Their hair isn’t thin and they have beautiful curls. They all seem to have the best facial features from each race (big lips, coloured eyes, small noses, freckles, beautiful light brown skin) and everyone seems to be attracted to them, whether you’re white, black, Latino, Asian etc. They also have the privilege of being apart of two cultures instead of one. The most beautiful celebrities are mixed raced. Jorja Smith, Rihanna, Meghan Markles, Jhene Aiko, Halle Berry, Amber Rose and Mariah Carey

Honey, the whole world does not find you unattractive. Besides, why listen to the whole world. Is the earth flat just because some people think it is? Is a tree a Bush just because someone doesn't think it's a tree? No. Just like you are beautiful and worthy to be loved. You may disagree with all of this. But I know you are beautiful and Jesus loves you. Dont be upset about what you dont have, but think about what you do have! Besides, I am mixed and I can assure you, not everyone loves me or thinks I'm beautiful. I've dealt with racism before, and a white boy basically said I was ugly because I'm mixed. I wasn't popular growing up, and I dont really want to be lol. Sometimes it's hard for biracial people, yes we are blessed with more than one ethnicity and perhaps culture, but we also deal with racism too honey. But that's fine, because I know I'm beautiful, even when I dont feel like it. Trust me, you are too. Just because you dont feel beautiful, doesn't make you any less beautiful. Are you perfect? No. Am I perfect? Certainly not! I'm chubby and have some stretch Mark's and some scars, but it's okay, and what you have is great too! White people aren't too pale, and black people aren't too dark. They are just right, because they are them! And you are you, and that's right! Besides, the grass may look greener on the other side, but if you were on the other side you still would think the grass is greener somewhere else if you aren't content with who you are, but who you are is wonderful and amazing and you have to change your mindset sweetie pie! You can't always change the whole entire world, but you can change your mindset and that can make a world of a difference! I'm not lecturing, but the truth is you are gorgeous and smart and lovely and worthy! Dont forget it! God bless you sweet heart!

that's really rare. who the hell wishes they were mixed race? do you realize how much dillema they get through life and they don't always look attractive? sometimes mixed race people identify more with one race/culture than the other leading them to wish they were monoracial.

Everyone, white people tan their skin so they can look racially ambiguous/exotic and black people bleach their skin so they can look “lighter”. They only wish to identify with one race if they receive discrimination but most enjoy the privileges of being apart of two cultures. You won’t be excused of cultural appropriation. You’re not too black especially if you look like someone like Mariah Carey for white people so it’s easier for them to accept you and you’re not too black for black people whereby colorism is an issue.

[83727jshs]

no they don't/ mixed race people don't always feel welcomed into both of their cultures. monoracial people don't always accept them in and might say things like s/he "isn't Asian enough." they race racism on both ends!

[Asker]

That’s exactly what I said, they wish to be monoracial if they face discrimination from other races. However, people are becoming are becoming more accepting of people of mixed heritage and the increase of interracial relationships is helping that too.

Being mixed race is cool, but you should love yourself.
If I feel too pale I just get a tan.

[Asker]

It’s hard to love yourself when the world tells you not to. It’s a human need to want some attention

[AdamSpaghetti]

Oh I know.
The internet tells me that white guys suck and are the devil basically.
I just go offline sometimes until I gain my sanity back.
I remind myself that people try to get into your head to stop you from being successful.
In reality anyone can do anything they put their mind to.
Race and skin color is just on the surface.
There's so much more to people.

[Asker]

Oh the internet calls anyone transphobic, homophobic, misogynistic, classist, fatphobic racist etc. Sometimes I feel like they don’t even know what those words mean 😂 I would be great to see people just as people but it’s human nature to find something to divide us with, if it’s not race, it’s religion

[AdamSpaghetti]

Exactly.
Everything is about dividing us into groups, then generalizing and degrading the different groups.
It's not healthy and people are lashing out online and even violently in real life.
There isn't as much love and acceptance as there needs to be.

[Bensbrie]

Well dude, truth is... you dont suck lol! Dont listen to the dark side of the internet, cause that's where you find the debbie downers who dislike everything and everyone because they are hurting and lacking something inside. It's a general rule that "hurt people, hurt people" meaning people who are broken and/or perhaps insecure are more likely to tear others down. Not every person thinks white men suck lol. And dude, you rock, so yea! Dont forget it lol!

[ShadowofRegret]

I think being biracial is overrated personally, I am biracial, but I prefer East Asian women.

[Anonymous]

My daughters are biracial and do look beautiful but prefer black guys instead of white and they do tan well but no freckles, I’m white if you’re curious

[Adivabbaby]

You don’t want this smoke trust LOL

[Anonymous]

Oh well. Maybe in another life.

[Tyffen]

Uhm. Are you black?

[Anonymous]

Wow...

[Adivabbaby]

My exact response especially as a mixed person.
