Why Are Girls Considered Beautiful Mostly If They Have Eurocentric Features? by Nobody: 12:54am On Dec 16, 2021
Why do African men and women consider only black girls with eurocentric features to be beautiful?

Western beauty idea:

Having long hair
Having light skin
Large eyes
Small nose
High cheekbones...

For example:

Women from East Africa are regarded as the most beautiful black African women...

While North African are the number 1 choice... In terms of beauty because they are white...

Compared to West and South African women...

Bantu women in East and North African countries... But the media doesn't do them justice...

And black men around the world do not care... Because they favour those who look Arab... undecided

Isn't it stupid to hate on people who look like you?

This statement of yours, it proves that you consider your own features to be inferior to the Europeans...

Why?

You hate on your own dark skin... So you prefer the lighter skin and even seek it out...

Same with your hair, and lips and nose and forehead and statue...

Slave mentality? undecided

Madam I never said black beautiful... What is ugly is ugly.


That is why ugly as a word is in the dictionary.

To describe the state of something if it isn't appealing.

What can't you understand?

You say black isn't beautiful... Your opinion...

But you do realise that it shows your inferiority complex?! undecided

I mean, compared to a white man... You would be regarded as ugly...

It's mainly due to inferiority complex among African who believe that everything that's imported from the west is better than what is homegrown on African soil

It has something to do with colonialism and media.

And I'll try to explain.

You know our people went through a lot in the hands of the colonial masters.
Day in day out, they were whipped, made to do condescending things and rilled with the belief that they were subhumans and not at par with the white man?
That Ot stuck like glue!

On media, I'll say a lot of people don't know the influence of the media on the society.
They don't know that the media can singlehandedly shape the outlook of a society on any phenomen.

For years, we were conditioned to see beauty as white and to see dirt and filthiness as black.
To picture God as white and devil as a man with my own kind of skin but with two horns , monstrous gbola and a tail between his legs.
To see things the way they want us to see and to not see what they don't want us to see.

Black only started being beautiful recently.

I don’t care what Harvard dictionary says, the only thing that should be considered Eurocentric features are narrow nose, thin monkey lips, blue/green/hazel eyes, blonde hair, pig (pasty white) skin.

When God created man, he sat back looked at him and he (man) was pleasing to his eyes.

In my opinion, beauty hasn't Got so much to do with race cos every race has beautiful people.

So it's either you have it or you don't.

That's why I laugh when I see ladies turning their faces into a painting canvas all in the name of making up. Well , so sorry cos not every guy falls for that.

Reno Omokri once said..
"do not marry a lady you have never seen without make up"

So true.

What is beautiful is beautiful, please learn to have some self esteem.

First of all the North African girl did not have the most likes there, the Ethiopian girl did and rightly so giving the crumbs to choose from in that pitiful gallery.

African men and European men do not share the same sense of what makes a woman truly attractive, unless by now all African women would have been looking underfed with bones protruding everywhere and no shape.

We have largely remained faithful to our ancestors, thats why people like the model here Sanchoka (with her equally attractive mother) will 7 out of 10 be an African man's choice even if you gave him a so called pale underfed whiteskinned beauty.

In fact, with the way white girls are trying to have fuller shapes, look darker and more ethnic, I think the African perception of beauty is winning.

A civilize mind will understand that people have choices, stop being sentimental and bringing race into everything. If I am an African and I don't like African women, that's not a sin but a choice. And it is called inferior not interior. The world have grown beyond negretitude.

I didn't judge him for having preferances... Don't be delibrately silly...

With his statement, he made it seem at though Eurocentric features are superior.. that whole garri ish... That's what I condemned...

It's cool to like someone of a different race, even I do... Not even sure I'm attracted to black men as much as I am to men of other races...

But I don't think I would ever look down on African men (Bantu)... Because they look like me... Get it?

If you say, 'I like white girls'... That's perfect.

If you say, 'I like white girl because black girls are ugly'... That's self-loathing...

Because you ain't white... The features of these black women you hate... You got them too...

Autocorrect... I type really fast... Genius... Something a kid would understand... undecided

We have some very feminine black women, my cousin is a good example but...

White women generally seem more in that regard, blame it on History and Greco-Roman art and sculpture. Nonetheless, black women are goddesses in the eyes of some and it's white women in another's perspective. Beauty is relative and subjective, no let am stress you.

I'm not that way. Ur good character or behaviour is my 1st attraction b4 ur physical body features. The facial beauty, big ass, nice boobs, height, etc are just additional.
