It definitely doesn't because thank God that we all come in different shades, shapes, and sizes. My family reflects the different shades of blackness and it's wonderful. From the lightest light to the darkest dark.
It's amazing to me because there are people who consider themselves to be geneticists or breeders and they seek out partners who will give them a "pretty baby" based on whatever standards. That's idiocy.
Now, if 5knowledge meant that she's afraid of how her dark skinned baby would be treated by others, I challenge her to first address her fears and then prepare her child to maintain high self esteem to buffer what the world may bring her/him. From there she can focus on schooling ignorant people who are afraid of DAHHHHKNESSS!!!
