African Americans who look mixed are more mainstream, they are considered less threatening, and most people agree that they are more attractive than black people who don't look mixed. I know that if I looked mixed my life would be so much easier. People would be nicer and more accepting of me. I wouldn't have to question or constantly worry about how attractive or feminine I appear to the opposite sex. all the negative things said about black women especially dark black women in the media would not affect me. I'd be able to open up an African American magazine and see women who resembled me. Dating the opposite sex would be so much easier. If there was some type of surgery that could make me look naturally mixed like Lauren London, Rihanna or Beyonce I'd be the first in line to get it. I really wished my family would have mixed the gene pool a lot more. I don't know what they were thinking, it's like they didn't take into account how hard life would be on their offspring (especially for girls) by mating with each other.
Stop it. Stop trying to have a pity party. Yes, sometimes society prefers lighter and mixed black people. Yes, it is wrong. But, woman, have some pride in yourself. Stop getting depressed over it. You never will be light or mixed. Be the best looking dark skinned woman that you can be. Focus on activities other than your looks. Who cares what other people think about your looks. 99% of people are stupid anyway. Focus on having good health and living a full life. Set goals for yourself. And no, light skinned people do not have life easy. That is ridiculous. It doesn't matter if your family mixed in the past. Half of my family is light (on both sides) and i still came out dark. Just....stop. *sigh*

Nyanna, Rage, and whatever name you come up with next, at this point, I think most of us here on CD would like to smack your parents for creating you. Now, go take your meds.

Less attrractive mixed race people do exist. You know Tiny,Tisha Campbell?
Sometimes when we are not happy with our life we find the one thing we cannot change and blame our sadness on it. Like people who regret having or not having kids.
Having entertained black woman from Africa in my home - I learned of a certain racism that is practice among black elite from the continent of Africa. They said that status comes in the form of skin tone. The blacker you are the lower you are. It's not just whites who practice this exclusive behavior.
