[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP.  I am sorry if other black women find my post distasteful but this is how I feel.  If we were to compare ourselves, many of you AA women have probably done more to appear white and be accepted by white society than me (if I have even done this at all).  I wear my hair natural, have never bleached my skin or hair to a lighter color and have never worn a weave.  Because my father is not from this country, I have no ancestors on his side who were slaves, so I know everything about my heritage on that side of the family and am very proud of my ethnicity.  However, I relate more to, have more in common with and feel more comfortable around white American women than AA women.  I am not sure why my perception about MYSELF offends you.[/quote]
I'm one of the previous aa posters you are referring to.
Skin bleaching? Seriously? Skin bleaching is much more common and accepted in other cultures than it is among young-youngish aa women. Weaves are less common the higher up in ses you go. It's like you've never met any aa people in real life.
It feels like you are grasping to appear as something (Worldly? Cultured?) that you just don't seem to be. I feel for anyone who feels 'trapped' in their body. I hope you find some peace.[/quote]

Yes, black women chemically straightening there hair IS an attempt to look more European because you do not like your naturally kinky hair.  It is okay to admit it. So is wearing a weave. You are wearing the hair of another person. Don't you find that sad and pathetic???  And tanning is NOT an attempt to look Black.  I hate it when AA's say this. Tanning is an attempt to look less pale and that is all.  Again, why is how I feel about ME offensive to you??  How can you actually disagree with who I believe I am when you don't know me??  Think about that. It is very odd. [b]If you told me you felt like an ape because of x,y and z, who am I to argue with you?[/b]  You know you best, right?

I think you are responding to the wrong PP here, since you didn't address any points in the post you quoted. But an ape? Really? Excellent trolling.
It's bad enough you claim your father is from Africa (which is akin to me saying I'm from North America) right after talking about knowing all about your lineage on your father's side. And now this? Like I said, excellent trolling.[/quote]

I do not want to say which country because it is not one of the more common ones you hear about like Ghana, Nigeria or Ethiopia. So if I named the country considering the other details I provided it may be easy to personally identify me. [/quote]

Oh please. This area has people from all over Africa, including the little country Cape Verde. You are not an only anything. [/quote]

So much of what OP is saying about AA is untrue, unintelligent and just plan ignorant.  She is not a white woman trapped in a Black woman's body, she is an idiot trapped in a human's body.[/quote]
