Who do you consider your representation

[@ExoticalsUnited]

First of all you’re gorgeous ❤ secondly they’re lying when they say you’re “black passing” because you don’t look unambiguous you actually remind me a lot of tinashe !

[@HoneyyskinRed]

@@ExoticalsUnited Thank you and awww Tinashe is so pretty and very talented I like her and yes I am still baffled by the insincerity 😪

[@ExoticalsUnited]

@@HoneyyskinRedthey want to be able to control our self perception. If we acknowledge our privileges they feel like we are leaving them behind “at the bottom” as they always say 🙄

[@HoneyyskinRed]

@ Yes it’s such a crabs in barrel mentality as cliche as that sounds but it’s funny because I never said I didn’t look black I jus said I have an exotic look despite looking black

[@GoldenNation37]

I remember this happened a long time ago see this is what i be talking because a lot of dark skin people love seeing roles get stolen from light skin people like Malcolm X, Thurgood Marshall, Collon Powell, Nat Turner and many more. But when roles get stolen from darker skin people by light skin actors then it's a complete uproar

[@mulattaexotical]

Excellent points! ❤ you're GORGEOUS

[@HoneyyskinRed]

@@mulattaexotical Thank you so much and for understanding where I’m coming from I’m just trying to make a point

I said this earlier to myself that I think when these UABW started complaining about mixed women, they didn’t expect that mixed also meant those of us who are not white passing. Because when they complain about MLS women, that’s who they mean… MLS women that look white adjacent, like Sophia Richie and Zendaya, not those of us with some variation of a brown hue and curly hair like Kat Graham. They have a very limited understanding of what mixed people look like, but instead of addressing their own biases, they are attacking us for not dealing with their bs. It’s deranged!

[@HoneyyskinRed]

@@fierdêtreCréole Yes they have a very limited mindset when it comes to what looks mixed they forget that’s the whole point of bein mixed you don’t always have to come out looking like the typical mixed person but like you said they instead go to attack mode like yikes

They not only darkened Zoe’s skin but gave her an Afro wig because Zoe has straight hair. She is Puerto Rican and Dominican. The DSBW community gave her hell for playing that woman yet they want to play LS and mixed women. Remember Cicely Tyson playing Coretta Scott King? That was horrendous. Janet Jackson wanted to play Lena Horne. Ms. Horne said, “Absolutely not!” 😂😂

[@HoneyyskinRed]

@@Mimi-ht6xr That’s so true there are darker women who play the roles of lighter women I wonder if they get upset about that

[@ex0ticwhisperz]

Janet Jackson doesn’t rlly look unambiguous imo even before she got work done. She looks mixed with something especially bc of her hair texture & features

[@Rosaline1700]

You are beautiful and they are gaslighting you. You do favor Zoe, just with freckles 🦋 UABW always want exoticals to be their representation. Always.

[@HoneyyskinRed]

@@Rosaline1700Thank you for that and yes I don’t like to be made like I’m crazy or delusional

[@Rosaline1700]

@ I completely agree🌹💯

[@sheilathomas8826]

She wanted to hear that!

[@KRenee-lt8zy]

This podcast is the truth ✨🌟✨

I think these people really just want to align you with their beauty representation and humble women when they say that those things I personally would consider you not an authentic looking black woman you can tell you have mixture in your genes

[@HoneyyskinRed]

Yes I’m learning to not care because It’s jus pure bitterness at this point and anyone who tries to call me out doesn’t even show their face but I jus knw they are darkskin and fully black… smdh 😪

[@yahainHotPink]

😮😮 You really do favor Zoe! 🥰💖😍

[@HoneyyskinRed]

@@yahainHotPink I never really noticed until people started telling me then I started to see it like we don’t look exactly alike but I see the little resemblance

[@yahainHotPink]

​@@HoneyyskinRed 😊 Love that!! One and half times I was asked if I was Tisha Campbell years and years ago. And the people did not ask me by using her name, they just asked if I was that lady on TV. And Gina and Martin were popular then. But they figured out I was not her, lol.

[@HoneyyskinRed]

@ lol yes I can see the resemblance with Tisha Campbell especially at first glance for them to mistake you for her 😅

[@yahainHotPink]

​@@HoneyyskinRed😂😂💖

[@fierdêtreCréole]

You are not black passing! You look mixed and GORGEOUS. ❤

[@HoneyyskinRed]
