Need Help Soonish: Hrmm... I can see why this could be a big deal over there, what with the Caste system still about, and "Dark" skin tones being shown in a negative light.

My personal opinion? Girls, our lady bits are FINE just as they are. Stop falling for the media hype about what "beautiful" is, and learn to appreciate your own body. Unless you have had a horrid accident, and been disfigured down there, your OK. Just ask your old man.

Jesus Christ, we can't have that kind of self-esteem around here! Who will buy our beauty products?

Ladies, you are improvable in every. single. way. Absolutely nothing about you is perfect, and you can only hope to achieve an attractiveness level of "barely tolerable" if you buy our beauty products. All of them. Until you die. Do you think you have a great ass? You don't. Nice legs? Nope. Beautiful eyes? If they worked you'd see how ugly you are.

You can rate your own attractiveness with this simple test: ask your significant other "do you think about sleeping with other women?" If he answer yes - you aren't perfect enough for him. If he answers no - he's a liar. And teh gay. And blind. Quite possibly a eunuch as well. And dead.

abfalter:
One thing I've learned having been married to a black woman is that a lot of black folks look down on darker skin tones. My wife doesn't like it when she gets into the sun too much because she becomes "crispy" (e.g. her skin tone gets even darker).

I, personally, like it. I figure if i am gonna marry a black woman she might as well be black. But she and a lot of her friends get concerned over being too dark.

She tells a story about being in school and sitting with some darker girlfriends and then having some boy ask her why she was sitting with them instead of up with the "better" looking people.

So dark skin tones, even over here outside of the caste system, still can carry unwarranted negative connotations.


Uh oh! Watch out everybody, we've got an expert here!

GTFO of here with that crazy crap. Your opinion of how "most" black people feel about darker skinned blacks is inaccurate in my experience. But, what's more outrageous is that you think marrying a black woman gives you some kind of insight.

So lighten up, Frances.

hailin: tasteless: hailin: Is that some wise statement that one day I will find myself? I guess I should say I worry about other women sometimes. If a man doesn't like my vaj he can go look elsewhere, though I've had no complaints yet.

Are Indian guys really that damn picky? I've never known a man to turn down sex for any reason other then venereal diseases...and even then in some cases they throw caution to the wind.

TMI, sis.

/Really, TMI.
