   so your main point is to say black men that are dark skin only can like dark skin women? That is a racist point of view right there because you are saying black men can only be with black women and that is not fair if a white man likes a non white woman he gets props for it a black man has self hate. LOL i bet if you ask half of the dark skin women that you interviews what they prefer most would say light skin dudes.

   Joy I’m happy your doing this. But I just think it’s really sad that people don’t understand where your coming from. Your not saying that these lighter complected women ate not beautiful. She’s saying it’s just sad that these men are dark and come from dark women more than likely and do not find these women attractive. Just as someone wrote…you watch white videos you see white women, you watch hispanic videos you see hispanic women. This is the only race of men who do not celebrate and love their own women. I watch rock of love this man has 20 white females and 1 black one. I watch ray of love 15 hispanic/white 5 black women. 4 light skin. WTF! Please don’t tell me there isn’t a problem. When I say them people fcked us up…they really fcked us up.

   Toneblack your really missing the point. She’s saying it’s a problem because so many black men are doing this. She’s not saying black men shouldn’t date or put other races of women in their videos. She’s saying it’s a prob when 9 out of 10 will do it. Verses the 1 out of 10 with other races of men. Most other races of men love their women and tend to marry and love them. Black men do not. It is not your fault though. We are a depressed race and we went through alot and was told this is what’s pretty…anything that is or close to white. It’s embedded in our brain. Just know that being a dark male you can have a child by that mixed/light skin women and your girl child come out dark….please raise her to love herself and believe she’s beautiful as any light complected women.

   what are you talking about most black women are dark skin and most black men marry dark skin black women. that is fact. who cares about being in a hip hop video half of the time the women are nothing but sex objects so you are saying that you want that.

   Hi i’m african,i saw the video and it’s very pity we do exactly what we reproche to a white people in the past.In slave time women who had light skyn were more treated than women with black dark skyn.I know one thing i love my sister’s skyn,whatever the color.

   I would just say,we won’t say white are racist when ourselves are like that.In some contries in africa,women destroy their skyn with products which are not study for their skyn,sometimes they are burned,because they want light skyn ,and they think they will found a man easier.We ourself are giving reason to white people to hate us because we hate ourselves.

   Let love us as we are,we are beautiful whatever the color!!

   To TONEBLAK what are YOU talking about you dont understand what we are trying to say, in my opinion I feel that there is nothing wrong with being a video model its all how you carry yourself and the role you play in the video but the fact that these rappers want every women with huge ass and titties in there video shaking there ass makes them look like sex objects. if you look at the rappers videos when they first started especially lil wayne they always use to have black women shaking their ass making them look like hoes and shit they still do it today sometimes but when its a video about a interest/girlfriend or about the “pretty girls” you dont see our black women hardly if so they are mixed or light skin. Its bad enough we dont see black women in the magazines or fashion it would be nice to see our black men representing us in their videos in a positive way. And about the whole married thing you probably see that but I dont 99.9% of the time when I hear that a artist or nba or nfl has a girlfriend i always say i bet theyre not black and guess what im always right lol asian men and black women are least likely to get married and thats A FACT!!! Black Men in my opinion put lighter girls or other races of women on a higher level then us they only see us as sex objects just like cassidy said if they put a dark girl in the video she has to have a huuuuuuge asssss lol or tittes lol im 19 im dark brown and i have long real lol hair and i sound intellegent and black guys always say my hair is fake just cause im dark and that i sound light skin wtf like all darkskin girls sound ghetto its ignorant and im tired of it i get treated better by other races of men then my own and its sad cause I LOVE BLACK MEN I JUST WISH THEY FELT THE SAME.

   Toneblack….oh baby you really really don’t understand. I kno were really taljin about the videos which for the most part I never wanted to be in except jay-zs excuse me what’s your name lol! Don’t kill me. Anyway I took this subject for everything. For valentines day I was searchin for a card. I went to the afro. ameri. cards. Do you kno each 1 with a couple on it made the man dark skin and the woman lightskin. I couldn’t buy one like that…I’m brown skin…bout Toni braxton or nia long complexion. WTH! My man woulda men like that spose to b u ?you aint lightskin. I could go on and on…how many commercials with brown or dark brown womeb? Yeah the pine sol lady and she just gotta b heavy, talkn with a twang and cleanin. Tone baby we just want to be desired as a whole by our men. It hurts and is very embarrassing. I kno white/hispanic women laugh all the time about how our own men so gone over them. And no just as joy I have no issues or probs getting men. But I’m speaking as a whole. As you can see this wldnt even be an issue for joy but she’s a sista (light,brown, or dark) who recognize this is a problem. Especially when your laying with these dark men and could hav a brown or dark brown baby girl.
