Help! My friend constantly talks about Skin Bleaching and nose surgery.. (black)

Oh yeah just to add, Rhi Rhi isn't mixed race either.

18 (i turned 18 last month)
I do law as well (OCR?) I got an A at AS but A2 is bloody difficult!
Im also doing spanish and psychology.

"I can see where she's coming from though because dark skin is pretty much disliked, I mean most black people would prefer to have lighter mixed race shaded skin, but of course still be black, deny as much as you like but this is only because of the promotion of light skinned black women especially."

No, being dark skinned is not "pretty much disliked".
No, "most" black people would not prefer to have lighter skin unless you can provide me with evidence otherwise.

I wont deny that there are people who may prefer to be lighter but "most" is exaggerating. By "seeing where shes coming from" You're implying that you do agree with why she is insecure to a certain extent. I assumed you did because you haven't seen anyone/dont see alot of people that made you believe otherwise. Im pretty sure that the media is not the only factor that makes your friend dislike her skin colour.

So yes, I can read and please do calm down.

What should I do?
She's black and it's really embarrassing, it's like she doesn't want to be black. I don't want her to end up like Jicheal Mackson. (I changed the name because I feel like I'm being mean.. )

When is the media going to change because right now there are no black (not mixed raced) women in an attractive role, or the 'hot girl' role and it's obviously making black women feel unattractive and unpleased with how they are. It's pretty upsetting.

I'm not a troll, i'll pm you if you really want but I wanted to go anon, simply out of embarrasement, I guess it won't make sense though..

What should I say to my friend? I've already tried you beautiful the way you are..

Has anyone been PM'd yet to confirm the identity of the OP?

There are black people who seem to want to have lighter skin but then they tend to be simpletons.

I personally prefer darker skinned black guys to the light skinned ones, I don't know why but then the light black and mixed race guys just don't do it for me.

Nicole Sherzinger the one from pussycat dolls, the picture for her song 'poison' makes her look white yet shes black?

I guess its all to their own. We all have our preferences I do know that for some dark skinned people the issue is not their colour, its the fact that they do not have even skin tone.

I think mine is AQA. Ah you're lucky to be 18! I like being 16, but I hate not being able to drive, I know that's 17 but still! I'm nervous about my exams lol, I get like super stressed!

Dont worry, there are other, more interesting things you can do at 16 I can show you if you want.

There I go again with the mindless flirting Sorry.
For me the only good thing about being 18 is that I am going to Uni next year

Your sig is really nice btw. I wish I could do eye make-up like that.

Haha, do tell what interesting things can be done at 16.

You're funny, I actually quite like you, despite our differences on some topics.
Ah I can't wait for Uni! It looks amazing!

It does support my point...that the media shouldn't be listened to. Bloody hell, talking to you is like banging my head against a wall.

Thanks The sad thing is..I do people's make-up quite well but can never do it properly on myself as a result of pretty poor eyesight without my glasses I wear contacts, but lack of practice on myself..I guess its all about practicing enough

This woman has CLEARLY FAILED at trying yo be Black. She has darkened her skin, gotten bigger lips, cheekbones and tried to get afro hair.

So OP, White people beg too! What shall we do about those people?

Oh wow, did you do that person in your signatures make-up for them?

Yeah I wear contacts too, I just stick to black eye-liner and a bit of black eye shadow, I'd love to try something different though.
