@me ,amen girl! :)
i just want to quote Losers who said “Anything mixed with black is beautiful”. THANK YOU!!! you are absolutely right! i am black and proud. ALL black beautiful. we are unique, finally someone who wants to embrace blackness or at least being part black. everytime someone is mixed with black people only want to bring out the other side. ex: “I can see the japanese, makes her look exotic.” blah blah blah. YEA, caucasians are beautiful. asians hispanics, europeans whatever you are youre beautiful.
