In my experience, It is rare to see younger dark skin men and women together. Most of the dark skin guys in my area either date white or light skin women.


ITA... I believe that society makes us feel sometimes that we shouldn't date each other when I was younger I would have never dated a dark skin guy and now the guy that I am most interested in is dark....
 


I love dark-skinned men and have always preferred dark-skinned men:) I just think they are sexy and beautiful (light-skinned guys are nice looking too but they just son't do it for me:look: )
 
I never really had a preference even when i was younger...

i never was really interested in really light skinned men...majority of the men that ive dated...were either brown skin or dark skinned...

so i guess i would perfer someone brown skin or my complexion or dark skinned...

When I find him, I'll be on LHCF letting everyone know.

The no previous marriage, no kids, and a degree, is an absolute must.

the teeth, we can work on.

And the height, I may be able to compromise on that. LOL, afterall who am I to request height when I'm 5'2. :lol: :lol:


So you would really turn down a gazillionaire if he had children and a previous marriage? :lol: :lol:
 
I'm more into guys that are my color (brownskinned).

My current SO is lightskinned tho and the one before him was dark.:cool: It doesn't matter to me really, if you are fiyah you are fiyah!
 
Blacker the berry...for me!

My man is the color of that Dove Dark Chocolate with a bright white smile, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Lighter Complexed men just dont cause my head turn. They never have and I doubt they ever will.

It's called divide and conquer and blacks have fallen for it ever since coming here.
 
I am a chocolate complexion aka dark skin woman that loves dark skin men....always have and always will....LOL My baby isn't the darkest more of a caramelly but still love him to death!
 
I dont have a preference...i like the healthy glow of dark skin but that wont make me go after him :lol: I dont have a preference I just like nice skin.
 
I prefer dark skinned men even although I can recognize an attractive man of any color.

Sometimes I feel guilty for this preference since people make a big deal out of color preferences.
 
I like and have dated men of all shades. My SO is biracial and he's very light-skinned. I'm light brown skinned. I have learned that the light skinned darkskinned thing is just as hurtful to men as it is to women, so I try not to be in the mindset that one is more attractive than the other.
 
For physical requirements, all I need are pleasing features and a nice butt:D . Skin tone and/or ethnicity are not a concern.

Personality and intelligence...guess that's another topic, huh?

I realized this too. And I used to wonder if I was truly soley attracted to darkerskinned men in the past or was it just that they were the main ones persuing me.

For example when I was about 16 or 17, a light skinned guy walked up to me and said "I would talk to you but I dont like light skinned girls". I wasnt interested in him either, and played like I didnt care about what he stated, but it remained with me and probably drove me to not be interested in them on a whole.

To add to that, darker skinned guys pursued me left and right, daily...Only recently I had to search myself to figure out what was behind my preference....I concluded it was a lot of hidden resentment towards guys my shade based on that one fool...to the point that even the light skinned guys that liked me thereafter got dissed..
 
I just about to come in here and say Dang, ain't NOBODY said brown-skinned. I like 'em nice and toasted!! :grin:

Its so wierd like that, isn't it? Hell, I'd be grateful to get a black man....hmm....

They just aren't as bold as I would want them to be or they are either too vulgar. I don't know why, I guess because all the girlies are always chasing the light-complected men... but I don't trust light-skinned dudes. They are usually very full of themselves.

Am I the only one who was noticed that darker complected someone is, the more rich and flawless their skin-tone is? Most of the dark-skinned people are no have nooooo bacne or pimples on their face.
 
I never really had a preference. I guess light skin guys catch my eye more because that's what I grew up around. In New Orleans, there are alot of Creole and fair-skinned families/guys. I have dated both light and dark. My husband is light-skin.

Girl yes!! That is why I LOVE chocolate complexions. There's nothing like a dark chocolate smooth creamy complexion. :lick: I had a friend that was like that. He was so sexy. God Rest His Soul. :(
