i was watching The 5th Wheel the other night (my boyfriend's choice, not mine. the show is Jerry Springer-bad). on the show, 2 guys were picking amongst 3 girls for a date. so one guy decides he doesn't like any of the women and the other picks one of them. the "chosen" one turns them both down saying that one of them was "too dark"


i wanted to throw my shoe at her head i was so pissed.
as a dark-skinned woman, i am very comfortable within my pretty skin

so she didn't offend me, per se. her ignorance/superiority complex based on her lighter complexion did.
i try not to let such stupid, sad people get to me but sometimes...
