dude i saw your question about brasil, you should go there... unless your married. the women are so fine and nice. they are a like the people of cuba, things are normally based on how much money you have but the darker skinned brasilians do have a harder life... so i guess that answers your racial question. if you go and come back to the states your going to be dissappointed with what's here. as far as the female prospects are concerned.

if you have about $400 dollars spending money you'll live like a king ... don't go during carnival though unless you extremely oversized crowds, plus thats when the trannies all come out. if you need any info, let me know i still keep in contact with some of the people i met from there.

Hey ladies,

Make sure you go to Africa to find some real true fine ass black men!!

You'll be so disappointed with the weak ass watered down negro men in America once you get back from Africa.

The Denzels, Djimons, air Jordans, the 6'5 deep chocolate flava muscle men with 8 inch love sticks still exist by the millions---but dey in Africa girls!

Stop settling for Doberman RUNTS 'n go where the real black Kings resides. No "sons of Mariah Carey" to spit up about.

Go ladies!! Treat yourselves.

lol ... go on ahead to africa if you got the money and the visa, what's holding you back? then when you come back, tell me all about your trip and that african king that you brought back with you. you know what, there's some africans here in america why don't you holler at some of them too ... if they'll get with you. thats what i did (with a african woman of course) :-) if you've got options then take them. since you've been to africa you know all about that prettybg, right?

note i never said a thing about anyones skin tone, i have friends who say that you can't go wrong with a sista from down south. so i guess next time i am supposed to bring up skin tone when i hear that comment? because i'm quite sure you two lovely ladies are so worldly and have been all over the globe and can tell exactly where a person is from based on their complextion. I suppose it would be fair for me to assume that your overly sensitive or the strawberry clock is ticking right now, anyways if at all possible learn to address your arguments without the "niggas" if your capable of doing it. i don't get the frog thing..what's that?

blkamericanking, brasil is loaded with sistas of all complextions and ones that look like they should actually be going to the beaches with thongs ...you'll have a blast!

not a damn thing blkamericanking, trust me you wont regret it if you go... if u decide to go hit me up braddoberman@yahoo.com i will tell you all the hot spots and where you can get the best bang for your buck! if you aren't feeling the portugese love then, try the ethiopean sistas, all the ones i have met have been kind and humble alot of them here in michigan area looked like they could be related to Iman (the model).

by the way pretty's comments are based on jealousy ... plain and simple.

HAHA!

Jealousy.

First of all, I have a man.

Second of all, I would never be jealous of some twerp out to get a bang for his buck. LMAO!!!!

You put the curd in nerd.

I'm just INSULTED at the way you constantly diss African American women on these boards. Always making some snide put down and then big upping Ethiopians and white girls.

It's obvious that you mean to be rude and say mean things. We're just letting your twerp ass know that WE DON'T LIKE YOU.

Take your pale ass to Brazil and fuck all the BANG you want, punk.

I wonder if those fine Brazilian sistas love Black American brothas. Well, I'm sure they do cause women all over the world seem to love us. Black American brothas need to to get together and go down to Brazil and show the ladies what's up.

lol... i should have known, that your stupid ass would take the "bang for your buck" in the wrong way, obviously you don't do anything pertaining to the business world (it has nothing to do with sex...idiot). did i say you where jealous of me? nah, jealous of sistas from other places... hell yeah you are. i don't blame you i guess, if i where subpar like you, then i'd be jealous too. that dude that your with (the african guy, right?) would str8 up leave you if he had options ... send him to brasil (without your stankin ass)and i bet he would come back smiling.

you don't have to like me, i don't need you to, i don't even deal with girls like you unless i have to. like when i'm at target or at the grocery store check-out being waited on. like i said your just too sensitive, you prolly actually get mad when you read this stuff don't you? ...lol, what a dumb ass.

blkamericanking
all women like something different, when this brutha i knew came to the u.s. from england the sistas here where all over him because he was from somewhere else and had that accent, just like they liked one of my boys from dominican republic. it's the same thing but in reverse, having money is always an aphrodisiac to women no matter where they are from, even if they have their own. (just look at the flava flav show)

you should go man, the women are just a bonus the weather is nice and hot, the secenery is magnificant, the food is exceptional, and sometimes it's good to just engulf your self in another culture.

Precisely.... As are having an accent and/or being a stranger from an unfamiliar environment/backround. The question is, what's missing from a GROWN MAN'S life to wanna place himself in such a MEANINGLESS atmosphere, engaging in POINTLESS encounters?

Why do you believe that black men insult and degrade black women if they speak of an enjoyable experience with women who are not black? If they say things that are directly insulting or derogatory about black women, that is one thing. But if he speaks of Brazilian women as being loving, not materialistic, fun, open minded, etc, why does that offend you? I have heard a number of brothers say the exact thing about Brazilian women (I even posted a letter about a brother who fell in love with black Brazilian women). In fact, my personal experiences with them support this. They were very amiable, outgoing and friendly. It's a "cultural” thing with them, not “genetic”. And no, they were not after my money because they all had jobs and were completely financially independent.

Just because he said something positive about women who are not black Americans, why is he wrong? Is he wrong because his information is technically incorrect or fabricated or is it wrong because you are emotionally offended? Not being critical, just trying to understand.

I think that you are perfectly justified in defending black American women if someone is unjustly degrading them. I would be the first to support you if someone was posting viciously untruthful and vulgar comments about black American women. But positive comments about non black American women does not have to result in personal attacks and bitter histrionics. Again, why does it offend you? Just curious….

That's what I meant. But, Abm, there comes a point in a man's/woman's life when such activities only serve as an alleviator, and form a mirage, in order to cope with something else. (Which can be dangerous to oneself and others.)

Tonya my buddy...i knew you where going to say something eventually. so to answer that let's put it this way, when you go on a vacation why do you go on one? another example; do you only date people from texas because your from texas? do you date or marry someone who is EXACTLY like you and shares the EXACT same interests? because i have not went out with one girl who said to me hey i want to watch football every sunday with you, and i'll be damn if i do all the girly stuff my baby is involved in. Tonya sometimes it's the differences between people that make things work.

if a guy goes to brasil and eventually marries a woman that he met from there would that make it a pointless encounter? the chances are just as good as his chances are while in the states 50-50. :-)

Oh. No doubt. Hey. I like getting my freak on with the best of'em. But there does come a time when a man must - as much as he HATE it - be concerned about things other than...coming.

Plus I doubt Brazil's public health and STD prevention programs are on par with those of the US. So a brotha needs to know he's rolling the dice when he lay the pipe down in Rio.

you tell me, did you see any of the brothers get all up in arms about pretty's african king comments? nope, we could care less who she's with or get's with. her comments are the same as "that dude" who always say's something negative about anybody else that you bring up in a positive light why do they do that? because they're haters ...or simply put ... jealous. now ask pretty why she's like that to get your answer.

I think Pretty was reacting to this statement:

"if you go and come back to the states your going to be dissappointed with what's here."

Which says an awful lot about who's really the hater, dont you think?

Doberman, I'm really not trying to argue with you nor am I going to question Pretty's intentions. I asked you a simple question regarding something that you posted. My question to you was - Why in the world would a SisterGirl residing in the United States of America be jealous of SisterGirls residing in a third world country. Last time I checked, Brazil is a third world country and most of the people who live there exist in abject poverty. So what is there to be jealous of? That's all I wanted to know.

The rules of Colorism, especially as a beauty standard, often affects women more often than men. It's like weight in this country. Men can be any color but women can only be a certain shade to be attractive.

Roxie,

I agree with you to some extent.

But the fortunes of Black MEN are also greatly influenced by the gradation of the melalin in their skin.

Go visit your local prison. Then come back and describe to us the skintone of your average Black inmate.

...Not only that.... Go into some ghettoes/projects and check the skin tones there.... Or how about homelss black men. Note how many lightskinned ones you see, in comparison to dark ones.

On the other hand, Abm, virtually ALL of the Black men who are sex symbols and are on BET or posed up like P. Diddy are dark black men. Right?

Black women's looks are defined almost totally by the absence of blackness.

I am supposedly lightskinned, but since the white blacks came along, I'm starting to get pushed in the background too. How do you account?

Tonya,

Yep!

And you could probably say much the same about unemployment lines.

If Jamie Foxx is so goodlooking then why isn't Fantasia?

They look like brother and sister, only she's cuter IMHO.

...But, Roxie, you do have a point: nonwhite women are affected to a much greater degree than nonwhite men.

"And you could probably say much the same about unemployment lines."

I haven't even thought about that but I'm sure that's true too.

I'm okay with saying Foxx is homely if you'll agree to the same about Fantasia.

Black men enjoy no REAL advantages to being darker than do Black women. Sure, some darker brothas do okay. But many MORE dark Black men are struggling, get laid-off, incarcerated, sick, shot and die FAR quicker (and often quite VIOLENTLY) than EVERYBODY else.

And there SELDOM is a LOT of bitching and moaning about THAT in books, magazines, TV and movies.

What's the difference between "homely" and "the girl/guy next door?" Please?

I never understood that one.

The "girl next door" is a pretty woman who has no features that would greatly distinguish her appearance from most women you might see.

"Homely" is just a (slightly) nicer way of saying "ugly".

ABM,

***And there SELDOM is a LOT of bitching and moaning about THAT in books, magazines, TV and movies.****

They have ALLL the black politicians behind them..

ALLL the "leaders": Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Spike Lee, Russel Simons.

They had the civil rights movement, the black panthers.

What about all of the black columnist, the majority of them being male?

How many articles have been written about racial profiling alone?

I've yet to meet a black female who've been strip-searched and harassed by PO.

Ok. If that's true, how come all the "homely" girls are usualy black/brown" while "the girl next doors" are usually white/lightskinned?

Tonya,

And are you arguing that the Civil Rights movement was primarily or specifically geared towards improving the lot of darkskinned Black men?

I don't know if I could answer that because I have NO idea whether and to what degree such is true.

Look around. That's the only people it really benefitted was black men. Black women have lost everything since then including the black men. They can't even be on BET.

ABM,

You got me there but you can't deny that Al Sharpton, Spike Lee, and Russel Simons's protests are ALL about improving the lives of average black men. (Which means darkskinned, culturally black, "authentic" black men.)

PBG,

Somebody's been sippin' a wee-bit too much of Kola's "Black men ain't 'bout shyt!!" Kool-aid.



Tonya,

The jury's still out on whether or not THAT is what those guys intend. But let's presume that's true: Look around. How good a job they're doing with that?
