They say, most light skinned women are stuck on themselves,think the world revovels around them and are freaks. And i wont to know why the secret isn't out that black men who married white women actually found that it's no different than being with a black women better yet worst, but now they'er stucked!And the lies about white women being more catering to mens needs is a lie.Actually black women cater to their men and children needs more than white women.Ask a few white children and you'll find that their mother left them as sibblings.And yes as a dark skinned sista a beautiful one not no india ire I have date outside the race because silly black men think dark skinned women are'nt attractive LOOK IM SORRY YOUR MOMA WAS HARD ON THE EYES THAT DONT MEAN YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT OUT ON THE REST OF US.And light skinned brothers you are not all that because your light skinned so stop thinking as a dark skinned black women i will praise and cater to you because it's not happening not these days.Im sure you all notice the rise of successful dark skinned sistas yeh that would be because we have most of the odds against us so we try to focuse on success.And for some black men, you make our race look bad.You dont wont to raise your children, you date white women to feel important or because its what society considers beautiful,Im sorry i have more but it's time for me to punch the clock holla!

LOL! But I didn't always have it.....in college I did not have a natural. And oooo again!!! You didn't know what the first white meat was! I know you have been chastised over and over, but yo!!

Not what I expected.... First off, I am very happy to know that you take requests! LOL In a weird way, your theory makes sense, although talking about polaroids and "creatively colored children" adds a comedic element that I have never experienced before when discussing this topic. Well done. Come into the light. LOL I must disagree with a comment that you made however. I myself am a dark-skinned woman. I have to say that most of the attention I get tends to be from light-skinned black men. I have dated a little bit of everything in the black spectrum, but I would say that the area where I get the least amount of interest is from brown-skinned black men (in the middle-not dark, not light). But to back up your theory (which is weird because I never really thought about it before this entry) it has always been a matter of color. Dark-skinned men always comment on the fact that I could give them beautiful ebony babies. Light-skinned men always comment on the fact that our babies would be a nice shade of brown. I cannot speak to the white man factor, because as of yet I have not gone there. But yeah, it is always about future babies. Myself on the other hand? I just like a good-looking black man, as I am still undecided on the matter of children. Go figure..... LOL!!! Not what I expected….

I love some chocolate bunnies! I don't to pictures, but seeing contrastic skin tones all cuddled up together does it for me. Meanwhile... "This means I'm kind of on the light side" Um... dude. Let me clear it up for you. Your ass is bright. Melanin-deficient. Lacking in pigmentation. High Yella. If the light side contained only two beings, you and Carol Ann would be chillin, m'kay, Pumpkin? LOL. Good post.

I never thought about the polaroid issue. I have to agree with you Panama, i have a very dark honey bunny and i loooove is complexion. sometimes i just stare at him becuz like u said his skin is flawless. Also looking at my caramel skin next to his hersheys hue is quite a turn on. Nothing against the lighter complected brothers (cuz i dated a few) but i just love dark guys. LOL!

I haven't been around any black women/ white men interacial couples lately but if you saw the Oprah episode about Sanaa's last movie something new all the interacial couples she interviewed the ladies were of the brown to darker skinned variety and their men Kevin Jamesy. I've dated a few white guys and none of them were of the Kevin James variety. I think we found each other because of the interests we had. Both dudes I dated long term were in the same field I'm in and I think my language skills, my ethnicity and the fact that I was well traveled, liked their kind of music (reggae, latin, african) attacted them to me. Hell one of them only dated black women and tried to pull my black card a few times. I know you’re generalizing in your post but I found the Kevin James comment kind of funny.

You are absolutely on point. And the fact that you visit this theory from the woman's perspective and the guy's angle is commendable. Theory on.

My Polaroids look BEST with a dark skin Black man, but since he is so desired by so many others be they light-bright or white, and he may not be desiring me, I've learned to like Polaroids with those of a lighter hue, since I am so dark myself, but Polaroids with a white dude...doubt those will develop.
