^^oh, well, maybe they saw something you didnt see.

Yeah.

Most of the time, I saw something I wanted to hump until I tear her into shreds. They can't see that, they are looking for the features a gay has brainwashed them is the idea of beauty.

tpia is right. she looks fulani

Fulani women don't have cheekbones like that, it's Yoruba or sometimes Igbo women. The only thing that suggests Fulani is her pointy chin and maybe her nose, apart from that she just looks like a Lagos madam.

my esteemed compadre, i beg to differ. she is gaunt, tall, lanky and has those sharp and waif like features that the fulani are known to have.

yes, its a very big step because it's not easy going to africa.

all the poverty, hardship, heat, mosquitos, etc.


right ? that tells me that she is desperately dying and seeking for something. there is a huge void that has to be filled. she is extremely hungry and desirous of something deeper and bigger than herself. hope she finds it all.

There are gaunt tall and lanky Yoruba women. I've seen hundreds of them, mostly madams.



Guess what ethnicity, you see?

i am sure you know that there are exceptions to every rule. this is not what your typical yoruba woman looks like. if anything i would have guessed that she was african-american.

yes, she has a lanky bone structure, but would you assume she's fulani?

i do get your point however.

She is what is a little bit over average for a middle class Yoruba-Lagosian. This was just an example of the many Yoruba women with features like this. I think many people just think 'thick' features Southern Nigeria and 'thin' features Northern Nigeria which is over simplifying. It's amazing how Africans carrying on stereotypes about themselves.

it is what it is bruh. there will be a minuscule deviation from the norm but generally it is what it is. the somalians have a certain look. the Ethiopians have a certain look. yorubas, fulanis, hausas etc etc have certain looks.

I am one of those that think we should be sensible and make sense at all times.



@Sagamite;
Well, being sensible let alone making sense at all times, within the Nigerian/Igbo context wink is being foolhardy and foolish hence the cheesy saga- grin some folks actually think 'Culture' like a bad 'law', is static, inflexible [/b]and [b]immutable.
It's said that a people/society that is not flexible/adaptable does not Think and may be a candidate for death. You may be hitting your head against the wall indeed. wink

Unfortunately, the internet forums have given reetards like fstranger the platform to put forth their moronic point of view to a wider audience.

If you had asked me 8 years ago who was my ideal woman in terms of beauty, I would have blotted out: Stacey Dash.

I think its great for Stacie to have been reunited with her igbo father back in nigeria however i do not think he had any right to expect her to undergo another igbo marriage ceremony or expect her husband to pay a bride price to him - what for? He did not raise, nurture or expend anything on her upbringing, from what i read her adoptive parents raised and nurtured her, as far as im concerned all credit should go to her late adoptive parents for making her what she is today, and if any money needs to be paid it should have been to those people not the nigerian sperm donor. He needs to maintain a low profile (he seems to have managed it for 42 years) and just politely keep up a friendly relationship but not expect that she owes him anything because she doesnt.
As far as saying that her marriage won't be recognised in her father's hometown - who cares - she doesnt live there, doesnt understand the culture or the language and up until a few months ago no-one in that village even knew she existed so i dont see why it should matter now.

I just watched a clip of the show and she comes across as very down to earth and likeable, I can understand her hunger to want to know her biological parents, the fact that her white birth mother rejected her must have beena blow and this is probably why she focused on finding out who her biological father is.

I have a mixed race relative who was also rejected by his white birth mother (he was brought up by his nigerian father, the couple never married) he traced the woman to spain when he was 21 and she had remarried with children from her white husband, when he turned up on her doorstep she went into a panic becuase her husband did not know that she had a grown up mixed race son, she made it clear to him that she does not want anything to do with him, he was shattered by that experience.

I can imagine that Stacie must have felt similarly however her vulnerability and need to feel she belongs somewhere should not be abused by her father who might see her as a meal ticket, i think she should keep her biological father's family at arms lenght if she cherishes her sanity. They are from two different worlds and aside from the fact that they are related by blood do not really have anything else in common.

I watched a clip of her on youtube - she seems very down to earth and likeable, one thing i dont understand though is why she is the only black woman on the show seeing as DC is known as chocolate city.
