Why Hollywood won’t glamorize Negro girls

We’re still asking this question

To glamorize us would present a threat to their precious Eurocentric paradigm.

“I’m not racist. I’m just find all black people unattractive. No, that has absolutely nothing to do with the worldwide standard for beauty being light-skinned and Eurocentric. Nothing at all. I grew up under a rock watching ants march and reading the back of cereal boxes.”

LMFAO

white people do this to each other, not just black people…

Well, you better keep on doing this shit to each other and keep your fetishizing hands off of Black bodies, before you getcho arm snatched the fuck off. 

I don’t do this to people anymore because I’ve learned that some people and groups of people find it offensive.

It’s not usually fetishizing. Most people just think it’s appreciation, and don’t realise it can be taken negatively.

People know good & damned well that touching strangers is rude. Keep your nasty ass hands to yourself. And who told you that appreciation & fetishization were mutually exclusive? Newsflash, any fetishist will tell you that they just love X people while they do their creep shit to those people.
