[@DorisClay]

I'm black and as a kid me and my black & white friends would swim then lay in the sun and then compare our tans. We all tan, the sun is cooking us all. We'd just move our swimsuit strap and see how much darker we got from what color we used to be. Sun damage was fun to us as kids 😂 smh

My sister-in-law is biracial and from Brazil. She now lives in the Northeast with my brother and when she comes to visit in FL, she's always like, "I'm hitting the beach, I've gotten so pale." And my brother and I are like, "Shut the !@#$ up!" We're like wine - our skin is white, rose or red.

I'm callin Cap on that sun tan story. As a whiter than white boy, I learned in basic training that black guys not only 'tanned' but got sunburn too. My battle buddy used more sunscreen than I did.

[@Tigerbrown44]

I’m mixed black and white. When i lived in ohio and had all my curly hair, everybody just thought i was a light skinned black man. Then i moved to Seattle and went bald. The lack of sun seemed to make me go pale and everyone thought i was white. When i was in high school all the light skinned brothers had to be extra black because they would get called out by darker skinned brothers. They called me light bright and almost white. Everyone wanted to meet my sister because she looked like Halle Berry. My brother looked like a six foot four inch version of Prince. It’s been a trip to be on both sides of the color line. When people used to ask if i was black or white i would say neither and both.

[@ericm4426]

A big portion of black americans are mixed with white

[@kimlr-herring]

We light-skinned mixed race girls got to deal with a lot of crap, too.

[@robertgreen7148]

BULLSHIT...the darker you are, the worst the world treats you! God himself ADMITTED it in the bible!!! Read "The song od Solomon" and see for yourself( it's only a page long) God himself cursed Esau only because he came out darker than his brother Jacob! Stop the cap! The only problem you have is that you're not fully white and most light skin/mixed race people play the victim instead of being thankful! God didn't like blacks in the old testament and approved slavery!

[@kimlr-herring]

Lol. Such a racist term. I wonder whether you even know its history. Are you darker than I? If so, then I can certainly understand your attitude of contempt.

[@yeahyeahwowman8099]

Speaking from this place as a white dude, most white women and some white dudes will try to act more black as a sad attempt to fit in, like Gary does onstage. From that place, most white dudes won't change their personality simply because they are dating a asian, black or a Mexican chick, so the kids usually learn more about both sides. That isn't the case for Gary, the guy panders to black people way to hard, so it's no suprise that his kids are doing it, to most white people, his pandering ass is hot garbage.

[@typeblue001]

I believe we might be overanalyzing this. Children can form connections with whomever they choose to, regardless of their racial backgrounds. This concern appears to be more prevalent in the United States, where racial identity carries significant weight. Mixed race Children are forced to pick a race rather than just be themselves. In many other countries, mixed-race children often don't face this issue. Moreover, it's essential to note that most children don't seek romantic partners who resemble their parents; that would be somewhat unusual. Personally, I've always avoided dating individuals who bear a resemblance to my mother or sisters that to me is weird.
