My personal answer to this is no as a brown skinned person but I also live in a mostly non-black area
afram thing, i recently found out there a couple subskin types now. These people know their skintypes like a herdsmen know the different cattle markings, pathetic.What is this obsession with skin color?
Not being treated as bad as dark skinned people isn’t a benefit. We still get treated worse for being darker than light skinned people and it would benefit us more if there was no colorism.Are you Black? This has been debated so many times on here, there are plenty of threads. Of course Brown ppl benefit from colorism, and aren’t treated as bad as darker people. Also brown skinned people get more opportunities.
No. But they get a pass with colorist people.My personal answer to this is no as a brown skinned person but I also live in a mostly non-black area

Growing up brown skinned was synonymous with dark skinned. Interesting how things change.
I guess that they're talking about people who are in the middle. Not very dark, not very light.
Then again on LSA I've seen people debate that people that people like Chris Brown, Beyonce, Rihanna, etc aren't light. You have to be Mariah Carey light to be considered light. This site is funny. People on here have their own definitions that you don't often hear in the real world.
To answer the question in the title, the lighter your skin is the more preferential treatment people who are colorist will show you.
I hope people didn’t read over that because your skincolor alone will never be enough to outpace people in this society. It only benefits you if the person you need something from has this subconscious bias.Growing up brown skinned was synonymous with dark skinned. Interesting how things change.
