I decided to create this video to show that I'm not a troll or a severely mentally ill person. I am just a dark woman dealing with colorism dating woes. Hopefully, if you take the time to watch my vlog, you will understand my point of view and not be so quick to mock me.

Look Bambi, I had unbelievable trouble finding that "ideal person for me," etc. and coming up against people who "disrespected" me too, for years. And I'm white as snow.

The point is, dark women have serious problems finding a good guy, due to colorism. This is not a fake issue, it's real, but never discussed. We are told that it's all in our head and that if only we were nice, happy and cheerful 24 hours a day, our dating lives would be different, but this is a blatant lie.

There are TONS of factors that can make people of various descriptions have serious problems finding a good guy. Yours, according to you, is having dark skin. I still don't believe that's 100% of the problem considering the many, many, many black women -- including dark-skinned black women -- who are married to good guys.

You can cry about this forever or you can hang on like most people do until you do find that guy.

I'm not sure why you insist on spewing this jargon. The majority of young black women are unmarried and sharing men. Where are these many, many, many dark black women who have found these great black guys? I'd love to know. Perhaps you are referring to so called "black" biracial women?

I don't think you are terribly dark. I actually think your color is nice.

Here in Southern California, in the suburbs where I live.

ETA: Also in the northeast, where I used to live.

As for "spewing," I didn't put all this on YouTube, of all places. Who's spewing?
