bukatyne: Well well 
Even the femininity, I don't get. Can it be determined from the screen?
Is it their dress sense or sexual appeal?
I think it is more of sexuality... yea femininity (or masculinity for that matter) has much to do with sex appeal depending on where you're looking at it from. so TV was bam on that. |

I don't really have a single problem with those women mentioned, their image, their message or attitude. (I'm not a conservative person) I'm just surprised at the people who use them as examples. It is so contrary to their regular message. Let me still assume I'm reading something wrong somewhere. bukatyne: Lol!
Well, different strokes for different folks
Still remember that thread where KK and Amber were Good women to emulate
I asked If they would be Happy If one of their sisters or wife is like her bar sex tape
And no answers.

I've heard it all  I thought I heard it all when Beyoncé and Amber rose were handed to us as examples to follow. Now I'm sure I've heard it all. KK an example in female submissiveness?

And they are mgbeke because they are black Nigerian.? How many of those ladies (video vixens for that matter  ) are more educated or even better than the nollywood babes? They don't even know squat. Just that they are lighter skinned  It is a color thing coogar. Accept it and have peace. At least girls make no pretenses about preferring taller men. if only you people would be that open about your preference too. coogar: some black men actually like thick women. however, i think majority are starting to see the underlying health issues beneath those thick flabs.

TV01: Statistical fact - even in the good ole' US of A. When I moved back to the UK it took a while for me to "feel" white girls. I actually thought it would be mixed race women all the way. Long-term my preference was for really dark and creamy and I married someone pretty much average black?
I tend to agree with you here, but I don't think it's a default setting. Lots of men love darker and many have no real preference. I was pleasantly surprised when I had my first fair g/f and used to regularly srprise myself by "wowing" at lighter black women when I thought I prefered really dark ones? Plus most men are driven more by other physical attributes over and above skin tone.
To a degree maybe - but it's not a real excuse. But what of short men? Or poor blokes? Or, or, or...we all have to work to rise above our percieved disadvantages and make the best of our situations.
Shes crying "not fair" because she can't be bothered to work for it, not because she is being cheated or discriminated out of it - she deserves to be paddled !
TV @bold it is the same thing. Especially for short men. That's why I don't say anything when I hear them complain. They didn't create themselves, and you can't really force anyone to like a short man if she doesn't but it is unfair to try and shut a short man up for ranting against the 'injustice'  I agree we should all work to improve ourselves no matter what the physical shortcoming may be |

Setaje: This thing is not a matter of preference. It has become a norm. Let me use my parents as example. They've been married more than 30 years. While they were dating. My mum and dad went to visit a friend of of my mum who happens to be from the part of the country who have many light skinned women. When her friend saw my dad she said " your husband na dark man. Why u go marry person wey black like u. U are meant to marry a fair man or someone a bit light so your children can look a bit brighter and finer. She said where she is from, it is not said outrightly but it's a salient criteria. The lighter a child or a person is, the finer the person becomes.
My mum was shocked but didn't take it serious. This was as far back as the 60's. I have been told by guys to bleach a bit so I can have options. Funny enough all my friends are light skinned. I fought wiv one who told me to bleach so men can be calling me the way they call her. I felt bad that day but not as bad as the day I went for a job interview at an advertising company and was told that the role I was applying for they needed a fair skinned person just to attract people. I have had many other experiences. Hardly do u meet any man who his ideal girl isn't fair, slim etc. They all seem to have the same ideal woman. But I have learnt long time ago to accept what I cannot change. There are still men who look beyond skin colour. Sadly they are in the minority.
Funny thing is many biracial couples I know and the ones I have come across. They seem to always date or marry the dark skinned woman and not the fair ones. Strange!!!!! I've even heard that severally. 'Ah at least you're light skin, your children have hope '  seriously? Hope for what? For light skin? You will see some folks joke about how this newly wedded couple are both so dark,their kids will be like charcoal. And to us that's bad  They really don't mean any harm when they say it but it feeds a subconscious insecurity among dark women. It is really unfair to dark and black people as a whole because even a negro albino is a black person and such things collectively insult all of us. |

bukatyne: I would really like us to differentiate between AA's struggles and Nigerian's struggles and not group all into 'black'.
Nigerians surely have their problems... (the Oba has threatened to throw Igbos in the Ocean ) however skin shade is not a problem even if though we esteem fair skinned over dark skinned.
I cannot relate with 90% of the AA's problems. @bold, If only.  |
Family › Re: Black Woman Discriminating Against Light Skinned Women by cococandy(f): 2:09pm On Apr 08, 2015 |
The vast majority of black men prefer black women? Well..... Maybe. But in the pool of black women,they prefer the lighter skins from what I have seen. And it has really nothing much to do with behavior or attitudes like some would like to imply. They just plain ol' prefer creamy shades. That's why I understand where that lady is coming from. People like njokuboy should leave her alone. You can't beat a child and ask it not to cry  . . TV01: ...ah, Coco, my favourite...holá!
Some black men prefer white women - allow. The vast majority of black men prefer black women and marry black women.
Nope we are always sure to label hysterical entitlement princess for what they are. It's a tone neutral term !
Not true. A man that "serves" his wife in his capacity as husband does so because he knows too. Not because she has a certain skin tone or he feels blessed to have her because she has.
I kinda feel you here. Her pain is palpable - he rage however is misdirected. Google her. She needs to do some squats, fix her hair and install an attitude adjustment - she'll be pleasantly surprised at the results .
That would be a disservice - we should direct her a'right - as above - there is yet hope !

Stillfire: The AA community refers to black women married to white men as bed wenches and she is very much insulted by the whiny and defeated nonentity called black men. It is a very sick community. These Nigerians do not understand the AA issue but will want to attach themselves just to insult their own women because God has blessed the Nigerian man with the spirit of loquaciousness rather than wisdom to build a rewarding civilization for their women and children. There is one common factor though there is inherent evil and I see it in black males whether in Africa or in America.
Black women don't be a scapegoat for the black man's perpetual defeat by the white man.  AA and their issues are a dime a dozen but some Nigerian men just love to Piggy back on them to attack their own women. |

goofyone: Yeah, true. Vin Diesel pretty much dedicated the whole thing to him. And i learned he's named his daughter "Pauline", still for Paul.
It's okay to tear up a little. We all do from time to time  aww. He did? How ironic Paul died in a crash too. All in all the movie was great although they could have done with a little less destruction  |
TV/Movies › Re: Interesting Facts About Fast & Furious 7 by cococandy(f): 3:26am On Apr 08, 2015 |
This was my best fast and furious of all. It was all the more touching because paul died and it was for him. I teared up a little during the last scenes. I know, embarrassing  You should have seen how the theaters were packed full because everyone wanted to see Paul's last act. goofyone: Interesting facts about Fast & Furious 7 :
One of the newest movies at the cinemas today is the latest in the Fast & Furious franchise, the seventh episode. Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his friends (family, he may prefer to call them) come up against an enemy (Shaw) who seeks vengenance for his brother. The stakes are high and Toretto must stop Shaw before he gets to them. This stunt-packed movie features a lot of breath-taking action scenes and car-crashing episodes, almost upping the last of the franchise, Furious 6 and any other Hollywood movie you can think of. Well, at least according to the trailer. So, I had to go see it!
After seeing this movie at Genesis (poor cinema, btw), I found it didn’t really meet all the hype it generated. However, I wouldn’t claim I wasn’t stunned by the many death-defying episodes which almost characterize the movie. Two things stood out for me: the photography & the car-crashing stunts. No doubt the director of photography did a majestic work, almost revolutionary with the angles and the style of accompanying falls & crashes, he also did carry the audience along. Most importantly though, the car-crashing stunts left me with many questions I had to find answers to. And boy! Was I shocked to learn many of them were actually real? I’d tell you about that right now, and you wouldn’t believe it if you have also seen the movie.
1. That part where Toretto & his crew dropped their cars out of the plane and parachuted to the ground? Well, looks like it happened. They did drop cars out of the plane, but of course empty cars. Skydivers & helicopters recorded the scene with the cars coming out of the plane. But Toretto & his guys were never in the cars. To simulate the last part where the cars landed on the windy road with the drivers speeding away, they had the drivers seat in the cars and dropped them only 6-8 feet off the ground.
2. The part where Brian (Paul Walker) jumped off the bus and held onto Letty’s car? Well, they did that too. With safety harnesses holding everyone up though, just in case of trouble. The bus itself was held down to the ground, allowing time for Brian to walk on it to safety. Letty’s car was rigged with a safety harness to prevent it from going over the cliff as it spurned around. Brian did jump and held onto Letty’s car and the bus did make its way down the 160-foot cliff. They used a stunt double for Paul in this scene. Insurance reasons.
[
3. That car jumping through the Etihad towers? Well, it did jump through a tower, but certainly not the Etihad towers. They had a 40-foot glass building built in a sound studio and actually jumped the car through it. The car, meanwhile, is a Lykan Hypersport (only 7 built worldwide) and costs a whopping $3.4 million. It has custom rubies and diamonds in its headlights and a gold-plated roof. Did they actually use this car? Err...nope! They had a replica built which turned out almost identical to the actual car. It was built the same company that produced the original cars and you couldn’t tell the difference.
4. They crashed about 230 cars in this movie, including latest model Mercedes Benz AMGs & high utility sports vehicle.
5. The part where Shaw & Toretto crashed into each other during their duel? Well, that did happen for real too, except no one was in the cars. And they actually crashed an Aston Martin DB9 which Shaw was driving. Actual car? Well, replica most likely. According to the director, you’d have to build replicas of these cars just in case in the scene didn’t turn out the way you wanted them. Then you could repeat again.
6. One last thing: Paul Walker died before the filming ended. In addition to using Paul's brothers, they created a digital Paul Walker to finish this movie. There is no where this is more apparent than at the last shot of the movie where Toretto & Brian race together on an empty road before parting ways. If you had a movie eye, you’d know Paul Walker wasn’t there at all.
Hope you find this a good read.
If you don't see this movie for anything, please see it for the car crashing  |
