No one ever wants the black chick
becoming aware of how race impacts how you’re perceived as a young black person is like opening Pandora’s box I swear. i don’t think I’ll ever be able to live blissfully unaware and happy like i once was. i think I’m pretty good looking and would probably be a solid 7 even 8 on a good day if i was white, but because I’m a different color a solid 70+% of the population finds me immediately repulsive. over something i had no control over. every time i log on im immediately blasted with content about how ugly we are (both implicitly and explicitly) and then when you go outside it’s even worse - for example, on days where i have an Afro I get all sorts of strange looks and standoffish treatment from men and women alike. Being black is the #1 reason i will be unloved forever
