I have combination tone skin: medium brown face, high yellow neck, shoulders, chest, stomach, thighs, legs, and feet. Does this mean I have to cover my face and wear a revealing dress and flip flops to get in?

What’s the big deal, here in Texas we have parties where on certain nights only blondes, red-heads, or brunettes, get in free. DAMN COONS!!!!!

Its pathetic. There’s this very popular rapper named lil boosie from Louisiana that always mainly raps about wanting redbones and on some occasions carmaels in his songs but yet 1 of his daughters is dark and the other brown. And I can actually see it changing the way the males in Baton Rouge think. Before lil boosie became really popular I had males approcahing me just as much and sometimes more than my light skinned girlfriend.

@ Bella

They didn’t have the party for the other skinned types. He said that they were “going to” have a party for the other skin tones.

That’s why people are saying he is lying. If nobody had given him this backlash, he probably would had just had the party for the light-skinned women and then that was it. He was just trying to save face.

@ Crest

The women whose face is on the fyler may not even know that her face was used for that fyler. Party fylers are NOTORIOUS for putting people’s faces with or on their fylers to plug their event, and then have the craziest captions underneath. And the person didn’t even know that their image was being used for that.

This woman probably don’t even know this man. He just used her pic and then wrote whatever he wanted underneath. This isn’t science guys, this kinda ish is easy to figure out.

Didn’t they have a party for dark-skinned and caramel skinned sisters too?

I am ashamed of all of the bloggers who have neglected to mention the other parties too. Black folks shouldn’t try to play those types of games with one another.

These folks sound intellegent and know history and they aren’t ranting and raving about racism I wonder if that’s why Val thinks they aren’t black. What they said really makes you think though.

You know Val, I think what they said is the absolute truth, too many of us don’t like to hear the truth when we disagree with it. They speak from logic and what they all said makes sense to me, you speak from emotion something we need to stop doing.I’m very dark and I have experience it.

alot of you keep saying that a man should be ashamed for throwing this party but if you read the invite it says”randi aka ms. p.y.t.” so this party is thrown by the light skinned woman smiling on the invite she is the ignorant person who thought this was a good idea. the guy above me(big jim) is right black women do have to stop picking men by their looks or money and start choosing men by personality and you will find good men if thats what you really want but younger black women dont always really want that good man they want the challenge of trying to change a bad boy or cheater into a good man. i dont pick women by skin tone but i understand what he meant by “woman up” because men are called out all the time by women for choosing women for the wrong reason so women need to do the same thing to other women when they choose for shallow reasons.
