Tell_It_Like_It_is asked:
How come it took a non-black woman to make features of black women beautiful. Like for instance Angelina Jolie is applauded for having full, thick lips, black women have always have full lips but were never credited or called beautiful mainstream for it. No black female movie star never was called beautiful for her full lips. Actually black women’s full lips were always made fun of by whites now white women are getting lip injections. Jennifer Lopez made big ***** a thing of beauty, even white and spanish women want that. Black women always had the big ***** but were never called beautiful for it, of course black men always knew it, remember Sir Mix A Lot song I Like Big ***** but it took non-black women to make the **** beautiful. It seems people **** to call black women beautiful for their features, Asians and Latino women are called beautiful for certain things but not black women because the stereotype is black women are just ugly and that’s not so.
It seems black women can’t make their features a thing of beauty. Many black stars have to look white to be considered beautiful yet non-black women can have black features and be called beautiful. Jennifer Lopez and Angelina Jolie are called beautiful for having features that originated with black women and black women never got credited or called beautiful. Full lips and big ***** now are a thing of beautiful just because a white and a spanish woman has it so now it’s beautiful mainstream-wise, white and spanish women are getting lip injections and **** implants, but the full lips and big ***** wasn’t considered beautiful when only black women had the features. Thoughts?
