"I Don't Like Dark Skin Girls!"

With this blog post I'm not gonna sit and moan about men who don't like dark skin girls because we all know how played out that sh*t is (it's a daily occurrence on 'Black Twitter' when they decide to dabble in 'coon time'). Instead I want to attack this issue from another angle. I wanna talk some real sh*t to my ladies that I hope you'll all take on board.

I'm not gonna go deep into the who, what, where, why and how of all of this 'light skin is the right skin' malarky, because we've all heard it enough times, and just like this topic, it is old like gold! It comes down to slavery, the William Lynch letter -which as people of colour you should ALL have read *holds up the mighty  fist of Swear Down* educate to elevate my sistah/brutha (click here to read it if you haven't already) -and the media...basically.

Now that we've got that covered...

What it also comes down to is PREFERENCE. In this day and age our society has become so eclectic and diverse that people of all races are coming together, and I applaud that because it shows how much society is evolving.
You are allowed to be attracted to who you want regardless of other peoples opinions, it is your right! Now, that being said, as much as it is your right to like whoever the hell you want, that doesn't mean that you then need to go the extra mile and start putting those who you are not attracted to down just to highlight how much you prefer your preference. Mate, -_- we get it!

Who are you impressing by doing this please? Your friends? Your family?People you don't even f*cking know on social networks just so you can get a couple followers and RT's to pay your phone bill?
...Wait; followers and RT's don't pay your phone bill....Look at your face! 
If insulting a group of people about their skin tone/race/country impresses the people around you, then you need to re-evaluate your circle and your life buddy!

Now ladies, here's what I have to say to you. When you see these boys running down dark skin girls, why do you get your frenchies in a twist? Lemme ask you this; those boys that like to 'banter' about skin tone, do you even find them attractive? If they moved to you, would you even want them? Do you really care about this coleslaw man's approval of you? No? Didn't think so. So why is it that when you see them chatting shit, you wanna catch feelings and start bickering with these wotless Michelle Williams? It don't make no sense :/ these times your cherry bomb is not for him!

I know some of your are probably thinking 'But my darling Scotty, you majestic creature you ^_^, this is a huge problem in the black community. Our own men are disrespecting us and it's not right!" and I completely agree...I am very majestic! Lol okay but seriously; yes you are right but guess what, NOT ALL BLACK MEN THINK LIKE THAT so why waste your time worrying about the ones that do? From time they don't like you/you don't want them, they are irrelevant, null, void, inapplicable, useless, futile....are you getting where I'm going with this? When it comes to skin tone, "those who mind, don't matter, and those who matter, don't mind", ya dig?
We can sit and rant about it till we go blue in the face, or we can accept that some people thoroughly enjoy being a c*nt, and move the f*ck on. Focusing on unnecessary negative bullshit from the minds of non-entities is just gonna give you hypertension in your neck back! Aint nobody got time fo dat!

Exhibit B: 'Tyson James' played by @compoZer_
I think that the reason some of you allow these niggeristic comments to affect you is out of social awareness, but also (and I hate to say this) insecurities. Let's keep it funky; if you had a man *lets say...Exhibit A or Exhibit B*:


Exhibit A: 'Jade Washington' played by @ImranJonKing
...would you really give a flying f*ck about whether these Gucci Mane lookalikes liked dark skin girls or not? *Look at Exhibits A and B again then give me your answer*.

Hands up who answered 'Yes!' - Don't worry...I'll wait *goes on holiday and comes back to see tumble weed rolling across the screen*

MY POINT EXACTLY!

I think that as much as we preach, the issue lies in black women feeling unwanted by their own men, and of course that's never a nice feeling -*sings Christina Aguillkhgfsdffa* 'Nobody wants to be lonelyyyyyy,' - but like I said before, just because a few hold certain opinions, doesn't mean they all do, and even then, there are White men, Asian men, Mediterranean men, Hispanic men, Biracial men, Arabian men, Native American men... ALL TYPES OF BEAUTIFUL MENZIZ, so why the hell you wanna sit in your room crying and singing along off-key with a glass of wine in your hand to Celine Dion 'All By Myself' like some divorced housewife when there is a bountiful variety laid before you?
Do you see the men doing it? No! You don't like them *pssht* they don't care! They've already started dabbling in bitches with Pokemon names (Karruche and shit), they aint got time to sit there stressin over bitches who aint tryna give them access to their love canal so why you stressin over dudes that aint tryna give you their love boat, especially them pop down, useless love boats you don't even wanna take for a ride?

We've all seen some girls make silly comments about why they don't like black men and you don't really see the men react to it as intensely as black women do. Ladies I think you should just stop giving a sh*t!

Not everyone is going to hold the same principles and thought processes as you and as much as it may anger you, you really do just have to accept it and live your life. 
Dark skin women, you are just as beautiful as everyone else and I need you all to believe that and stop relying on these men to tell you. I really want to get this point across because I don't want any of you to feel like you aren't good enough over something as trivial as the tone of your skin; so much so that I made it a point to write about and cast a dark skin girl as the LEAD in the Unfamous Series:
'Rio Greene' played by @busayoxo and 'Nathaniel Gibson' played by @mcampbell1989

You're gonna find someone and they will love you just the way you are. If you don't believe me, look at Exhibit C:
Exhibit C: Precious and her boyfriend.

Bitches, if that don't give your ass some hope, then I dunno what will! *sings* there can be miraclessssss when you belieeeevvvveeeeee!

Anyway bitches, lemme know what you think, share it and all that good stuff. Any other topics you'd like me to speak on, or even if you just want some bullsh*t free advice, hit me up on my Formspring formspring.me/ScottyUnfamous. Follow me on Twitter @ScottyUnfamous, and if you wanna check out my stuff from SDTV to the Unfamous books (including the super sexy spin-off '50 Shades of Unfamous') and series, all my links are in the sidebar.

Until next time.

  1. First off, just gotta say once again that i think your writing style is dope. I enjoy reading your blogposts for the same reasons i enjoy your tweets...you don't waste words being judgemental or telling people how to live, but instead you simply highlight the flaws in usuing anything less than your god given common sense.

    As a Darkskinned fella myself i definitely agree with all of the above. I remember a time growing up where being my complexion was not the "lick" and chicks were on any "Lightskinned-GucciManeFlavoured-Coleslaw-brudda" (see what i did there? lol) who given time would 55% of the time turn out to be a douche bag anyway. But what i found even more peculiar was how those same chicks would be BANG ON my case a few years later.

    my point is that a lot of young people and even some old people are oblivious to the fact that genuine attraction runs alot deeper than a person's skin tone, what we find attractive should change and mature as we grow older and get to know who "WE" are and become more confident in our own skins. A person who knows what they like will know that it's more about how a person is than what they look like. And this same self confidence should also mean that you don't let others dictate whether or not you're attractive and what your standards of attractive are.

    Know yourself and what makes you tick and everything else should more than likely start to make sense.

    Looking forward to reading more of your work.

    Daps!
