I read and posted in the other thread. I understand very well what is going on.....

omg i can't believe those damn tags. thats just sad.

Sooo. let me get this right. You started this thread to generate dialogue on this whole light skin/dark skin thing, but b/c people disagree with some of your points or call you out on insecurities YOU obviously seem to have, you just say fuck it and refuse to participate anymore in the fuckery that you initiated. SMDH. I think the dialogue is interesting, even if I think some peoples' POV is mighty ignorant. I think it's healthy to listen and TRY to understand other peoples' perspectives.

Anywhoo, there where a lot of beautiful women posted in this thread.

Why is it always *that* serious on LSA? Sigh.

Ethnicity is such a funny topic. Claudette Ortiz and Jennifer Lopez are both Puerto Rican, yet Jennifer is considered "white" and Claudette is considered "black". Are we talking about ethnicity, race, or purely skin color up in here? And does it really matter? All of the women posted are beautiful. I can even find something beautiful about Tiny. Stop tearing each other down, jeez. SMH.
