Can we talk about colourism

[@shininglight]

Can we talk about colourism in somali culture? As a somali female who's on the "lighter" side of the spectrum,the privilege is there . The number of times I've heard people putting down someone because of there shade is crazy. I know it's mostly the older generation that do this but it's still needs to stop. Your shade doesn't decide your value.

Can always trust a Somali female to covertly brag

Reminds me of the one who went on a radio show to brag about her hair.

As a somali guy who’s on the “muscular” side of the spectrum, the privilege is there . The number of times I’ve hear people put down a faraax because of there lack of muscle is crazy. I know it’s mostly the xalimos that do this but it still needs to stop, Your lack of muscles doesn’t decide your value.

Nah, it's femcel blabber. Just deal with it like dudes with height and balding.

 

[@shininglight]

nope really it's affect dark skin men too

Not as much but it's there too. I've heard of abdis who use lightning cream. You have to understand "dark skin" is associated with masculinity and "lighter" with being feminine.

Colourism just shows how much low self esteem SS Africans have.

Most Somalis are seen as dark by outsiders standards. So insulting dark skin Somali girls when you're a dark Farax is embarrassing.

Even the ones who will qoute me and say 'bUt i' M NOt DaRk' will seen be seen as dark by cadaans, Arabs and other groups.
I have no idea why Africans are the only group that look down on their features.

These silly men that want to compare it to height and baldnese are so dumb. Since when is being short a SS African feature? Since when is being bald an SS African feature?

But guess what? Being dark is. If it wasn't, you lot wouldn't he screaming racism whenever cadaans and other races comment on your dark skintone.
