There are a lot of pale kids that get picked on from deviating from the norm. I could understand if you said people that are deemed attractive get lighter prison sentences but to say that people will avoid you for being dark-skinned is ridiculous. Since when were women of any shade deemed threatening.

Lol yeah, I don’t know if you know this but all new born babies are usually light skin, except if you look at their ears the color is different there and usually a good indicator of their true skin tone. I didn’t know this either until couple years ago when my friend had a baby and one of her aunt checked the baby’s ear and was like oh she won’t be light for long
@Knowles is now checking her baby's ears to see if it remains light for long
Again, tell me how that exclusion manifests itself on a societal level. Are they excluded? Are they marginalised?
The tweet says that they are ignored as if they are some kind of untouchables.
is it tho?, im not talking about somalia, but the west.. alot of indian/asian live here and associate darkskin with being poor and dumb. ask them for direction looking like wesly snipes..

Suddenly the desire for light skinned babies makes sense. I don’t blame them. They’re just ensuring their kids don’t undergo the same abuse by shunning their dark male counterparts (most of whom are colorist anyway).

Your aunt is toxic
Get rid of her
Isn’t it always the women that have it bad, you don’t see men being fat shammed either. I do think Somalis aren’t as bad as Asians, especially south Asians, in India apparently if you are dark skinned women, the groom can ask for more dowrySubhallah

Just say you don't attract the the type of men you want and move on. Color is a trivial issue in the Somali community.

No, dark men aren’t actively shamed for it like women are. It’s bc men just aren’t shamed for their aesthetics in the same way.Isn’t it always the women that have it bad, you don’t see men being fat shammed either. I do think Somalis aren’t as bad as Asians, especially south Asians, in India apparently if you are dark skinned women, the groom can ask for more dowry
But I think they still pick up on it, and prefer light skinned women as a means to cancel out their own dark skin.
