Dark skin people can rob at night comfortably and disappear in a crowd of dark skinned people easier than light skinned |

Ademat7: Like seriously its so annoying,both skin colours are beautiful both dark and light skin, am just tired of this stupid comparison, cause I really don't know when God who created us said the dark ones are better than the light ones or vice versa |

misspicy: I'm light skinned and all I need is Vaseline or olive oil. In the summer I get a caramel tone in intense heat I am chocolate....but all smooth and clear no matter the tone. There are many dark skinned people with bad skin and marks and can not leave the house without heavy makeup. I have smooth lovely skin and have never for one day worn any makeup. However if it makes you feel better then go ahead. The chief bleachers are dark skinned women and men wanting to be light.....that is not cheap to maintain in is VERY scaring. If light skin does not hide blemishes then light skinned women with clear skin really have good skin. Both light and dark skin is beautiful and does not cost anything to maintain. You just need to look after yourself and you'll have good skin. |

londoner:gimmie 5 jare! A Lot of dark skins are not comfortable with their color, it's a psychological issue and it's becoming a societal menace. How can someone even settle down and come up with a psychotic topic such as this? Well I'm very light in complexion so I don't really care what their problem is, make them ask God when they see him why he made them dark.. what if God is dark? Stupid topic 1 Like |

zinaunreal: Exactly and sadly lots of dark skinned women especially desperately need affirmations (especially from black men) and sadly they have to hear the rejection of lighter people (well women) in the process. A light skinned girl is much less likely to create such a thread. Even on YouTube video they will scour music videos and act as if the world has ended if their favourite artist does not only feature a dark skinned leading lady, even if he has done so previously. Yet in vids where there is a dark skinned lead you will never hear any complaint from light skinned ladies. Its unfortunate really that someone needed to create this 'them versus us'type of thread. I will always compliment someone with nice skin be they light or dark male or female......but the fact that my skin is not one of the beautiful dark shades will never make me insecure.......I have no reason whatsoever to be or to require praise for light skin over dark. 1 Like |

londoner: I agree with everything you said, but I've actually seen people on here tell women to bleach. You can see it in this very thread, and it's a problem. I don't agree with this thread or the Light vs. Dark BS, but I understand where it's coming from. If you have great skin, you have great skin. If you're beautiful, you're beautiful. |

EnlightenedSoul: Of course we don't want those comments but ask yourself if it is probable that this very thread was created for the op to hear some dark over light comments. The thread is titled and obviously steering towards comments at choosing one (dark) over the other. It is actually this that was the first offense and if people just only stated only that dark is better people would not have a problem with it. Why is the op pointing out perceived imperfections in light skin to make her or himself feel better? Why not simply talk about your love for your tone without trying to down another? This is the thing, many people don't mind colorism as long as it is in favour of dark skin. It is simple insecurity. 1 Like 1 Share |

uzolexis: I'm light and have been in very hot temps including Abuja sun and over two years in the sun of Western Australia. I don't get sun burned because I also have melanin and mine does exactly what yours does when it comes to us protection and preventing skin cancer. Your Oyigbo friends are white? As in European or light skinned Nigerians? |
Re: 5 Advantages Of Darkskin Over Lightskin by Nobody: 8:41pm On Aug 19, 2015 |
londoner: I understand what you mean. Although, I feel there's a reason people seem to be okay with colorism when it favors dark skin. There's definitely more abuse and put downs for dark-skinned people out there in general. Still, I agree with you. P.S. Some light people do get sunburn. I for one. Working a late shift has actually helped me out with that these last two summers. 1 Like |
