Why do so many men put lightskin women on a pedestal?

[Somegirl408]

like u hear rappers rapping about liking white and light skin girls when they have darkskinned women in their family. i like white guys but i would never rap about it in a song. also i feel like its fine to like white guys because i dont have to feel guilty because i know darker skinned guys get an equal amount of attention from girls. but lighter skinned women literally are always on the spotlight and im a lightskinned mixed woman myself saying this.

1. Same reason why white dudes date Asian chicks I like the way lights in chicks look and act.( not all DS chick act bad but a lot them have Colorism self esteem mental issues and LS don't and are more normal)

2. light skin/Bi-racial chicks/Multi-racial chicks look better than all the primary chicks. Including white woman. in my opinion. they are HOT they have the natural tan that white woman chase they look good natural hair or weave. Colored eyes like green or light brown. Either slim or thick.

3. why are you superhero caping for the dark skin one they would say you have privilege and you aren't really black and attack you the minute you step out of line.

Why can't they take about the women they like. That's what they want. Same way you want a white giy

If you are beautiful, it doesn't matter what color or shade your skin is, you are still beautiful and revered.

If you are ugly, it doesn't matter what color or shade your skin is, you are ugly and shunted.

That's the world we live in.

Just a beauty standard that's valued highly in the west amoung blacks the battle of darkness skin vs light skin has always been a thing its nothing new just our version off the house nigga vs one that works in the field
