Colorism against light skin people is very real
It’s disgusting and such a double standard. Not nearly as many people stick up for light skin people as they would for those of darker complexions
People ASSUME that because they’re light skin that they don’t go thru things or get judged and they do, maybe even worse bc people think it’s okay to say
“Are you white?” “Why are you so light”
Like that is super offensive. What if somebody asked “why are you so dark?” All hell would break loose.
Steadily having to prove/ explain that you are indeed, black.
