That’s Right Stacey We’re back.

Two Louisiana colleges have released the results of a study conducted by researchers which indicates that African American college students continue to view light skinned blacks as more attractive than their darker counterparts.     Ashraf Esmail of Delgado Community College in New Orleans and Jas Sullivan of Louisiana State University conducted the study researching the patterns of 100 students at an unnamed university and found that an astonishing 96 percent of men preferred a medium brown (mocha shorty) to light complexion (caramel mommy) in the opposite sex as did 70 percent of the women. The study also suggested that women tended to consider more factors than men when determining attractiveness.  What like his pockets I know they didn’t say his “personality.” 

The results were published in Black College Wire but were originally detailed in the 2006 edition of the journal Race, Gender and Class.  

This confirms what I’ve been telling you dark skinned haters for years.  The light skinned brothers aint going no where.  We have always been in style and here to stay.  The women have spoken and 70% of them say that I’m sexier than you are.  Get to the back of the Bus!

wow. what i find really interesting is that 96% of brothas aint given dark skinned girls no love. Its ashame because there are some fine dark skin women out there. I should know, I’ve dated a few of them. People need to get pass this whole complextion thing. Don’t let the media define what is attractive to you. And remember fellas dark skin girls are 75% more likely to have a big booty than light skin girls, lol

Yo Gleb, I already know you got a thing for darkskinned women so you’re biased. I like all types as long as its complete with a bubble. I’m just happy that the ladies are giving the caremel cats some love again to the tune of 70%.
