Black Beauty Still Reigns!! Congrats to Miss Angola!

I just want to say Black Beauty Still Exists! This one is for all us Black Women who have felt less than beautiful. Who have been discriminated against because of our complexions. Miss Angola, a gorgeous Black African Princess just won Miss Universe!!

Now I don't know why I am so happy. I think I'm happy in a "in your face America" kind of way.

Earlier today, I was watching the T.O. Show and Kita decided to jump in a bikini contest judged by Terrell Owens. He later said to her "why you think you can compete with all those Latina's, Italians, and Cuban Women?" I took it personally for some reason. Like a Black Woman can't compete with a woman from another race.

 

But F*CK THAT! A real African Woman just beat out all them "Exotics" from around the World! And this is what a collection of people around the WORLD find beautiful. This is who will represent beauty for the UNIVERSE!

 

So to that I say, take that T.O.! Take that! To everyone that for some reason doesn't appreciate our beauty and believe that Black Beauty still exists and is very much alive!! Congrats Leila Lopes Miss Universe 2011. You are an inspiration to Black Beauties Everywhere

I really, really, really appreciate black beauty like you would not believe.

@Tone what are African features, please tell me because Africa had and still does have hundreds of tribes. Amongst these tribes which historians had noted and documents by slave traders there were many differences in these tribes such as customs, physicality and languages, patois is derived from all the African tribes that were mixed together in Jamaica. In some tribes like the pygamy people they were tiny and have small features, small noses, European features as you put it. They are still around today, It has also been documented that the Fulani tribe which could be found in Nigeria had a fairer complexion than the other African tribes and that their features were similar to Europeans. Europeans have broad noses, does that mean they have African ancestry..... no, why do you think we have plastic surgeons. Europeans have put pressure on their own damn selves to comply with an idealised look that they themselves can't even fulfil. I am not saying this woman does not have any European ancestry because she is very likely to, especially since Portugal were all over Africa and then sent Africans to Brazil. Mexicans, Puerto Ricans almost every Latino country have European ancestry but when people say they are very attractive you hardly ever hear someone say it's because they have European features.

Actually Tone, peep the cheeks & eyes. Very African, i would know being of African decent myself ;)

She does not have strong African features so is this a win?
Matterfact, chop her hair off & no one would say she didn't look African. I have family that resembled her. She's very African. I won't even say she's mixed. My brothers are lighter & we have no white in or family

Tone,

 

My Nigerian American boyfriend's sisters all have smaller features like her. Two are really dark with perfect skin, one is a little lighter than me with the same features. There are some larger noses in their family, but most of them have a very "keen" nose. Seeing that there's a lot of non-black blood in my heritage, I have the biggest nose and butt out of all of them. They're closer to the genetic source of my blackness, yet I fit the stereotype in the nose and body. Black is black. She could have blonde eyes and blue hair, once someone finds out she has a drop of black ancestry, she's black. Don't make it about her facial features.

+1

My family range from all shades, looks, eye colors, nose size, whatever.

You do realize we all don't have a nose that spreads from ear to ear and lips that cover up our forehead and chin right?

 

Are you implying her features are closer to this


Tone said:

Tone, maybe thats just what YOU think is ugly. Fact is, beauty pageants have the same "type" of women, no matter if it's Miss America, Miss Universe or Miss Africa. The women look a certain way. That's just life. So what her hair is not "natural"...contrary to what you believe, most women in Africa are wearing weaves as well. The point is, a beautiful black woman won and from the looks of it, she won with her natural beauty. Natural body parts. Whether her hair is a weave or her nose isn't wide doesn't make her any less a beautiful representation of Angolan women.

Tone said:

I never said that all Africans share the same features. My point is when will we see a black woman win that has bigger lips a wide nose and darker skin.  All things that have been called and made ugly by white men.

What exactly did T.O. dumbass say?

 

And smh @ Tone. You always find SOMETHING to degrade or talk down on black women. Shameful...

kita walked out in her two piece (which she looked damn good if i might add) he was looking at her like she was a steak and the other dudes were also....when they got back home, he told her did she think she could really compete with those colombian, brazilian, itailian, etc women. s*** was foul as f***.
