May I ask a question?

Black. Brown. Caramel. Fair. Light-Skinned. Dark-Skinned. Olive. Red. Yellow. White....all shades or 'definitions' that describe a woman of color.

Often times, I think why and how we(as black women) are characterized under one specific color. Women of color vary in size, shape, mentality,culture, and of course, color. Why is it that we have a love/hate relationship with one another?


Facts have proven that we do disregard "our" men dating or having relations with women that are not of color. So why do we criticize and demean each other, as if we were foreign enemies? Or under a foreign policy that limits us to communicate and embrace our uniqueness?
