GoodGirl2: I totally understand. About the double standards. You're right of course, in the context that when it comes to beauty contests, both light and dark skinned queens should be regarded equally. I remember the likes of Bianca Onoh: she was fair but had those striking features that made her stand out. I only noted a trend that I felt should be brought to light; how judges at world-stage beauty contests seem to favor dark skinned reps from Africa. I might be wrong. As it is, when a "White" person talks of suffering any kind of 'racism' we just laugh because the word 'racism' was possibly developed with black people in mind so it's funny when some white folks talk about racist stuff against them. The same goes for light skinned They simply haven't yet faced the level of 'injustice' that their dark-skinned counterparts have. Especially in the fashion world where its hard to see a 'colored' face on magazine covers and runways, while the mulatto types get all the attention (Tyra Banks types lol) In any case, I'm not for or against light or dark, just saying that when it comes to at least getting into the top 10, 20 or even 50 in world beauty pageants, we'd probably fare better showcasing a top-notch dark-skinned contestant. I hope we can agree to disagree at this point |
