LOl...we always seem to be butting heads
I am what the black community calls high-yellow. They don't come much lighter than me. I have white friends that tell me, after a vigorous bout of tanning, that they are darker than me.
That being said, I get shit from everyone...
On one hand I'm not light enough, it's the whole one drop rule
On the other I'm not dark enough...I don't experience enough adversity because my skin tone makes me more acceptable
When out trolling

for the asian lovelies with my friend who is a small, dark and voluptuous to my tall, light and leggy I get passed over in preference to her all the time. In my experience asian men prefer the dark lovelies to me.
Lol...If I wasn't so vain I'd have a massive complex (I just have a little one).
Recently, I've seen more AM/BF couples in the city than AM/WF.
Given this site and it's kick ass members you should realize that asian men are not only into white chicks.
Maybe we are projecting our self doubts onto them a little and that is so not fair

Confidence is a massive turn-on...think beautiful and those around you will see beautiful no matter the color.
