Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week has officially started and people couldn't be more excited. I decided to look at some of the pictures from the event on global grind. I noticed that the pictures were missing something. That something was dark skinned women. After getting my fix of the Mercedes Benz models I turned on my television, still no dark skinned women. I wondered are dark skinned women going extinct.
Don't get me wrong I love red bone women, but you have to treat them in a totally different way. You have to approach them differently, talk to them differently and treat them differently as well. I personally don't even try to approach a light skinned women because I don't want to deal with the head ache. Yet, it seems like everyone I know has an opinion on how you treat a light skin women. Here are a few techniques that I've heard.
Ignore Them
One of my light skinned friends told me the way to her heart is to ignore her. I thought that was crazy but she explained to me that so many men are fixed on being with a red bone that she is quickly annoyed by all the attention. So, she found that she ended up chasing the men who ignored her. I tried this with a light skinned girl I know from around the way. Needless to say it worked. We used to talk about ever other day, each conversation ending in my advances getting shot down until I thought to myself... “I'm the lifestyle editor for Global Grind you should be chasing me” I hung up never to call her again. About 2 weeks later she called me at 12:40 am inviting me to come over.
Spoil Them
My homeboy Jay who has the one of the baddest red bones I've ever seen as one of his “bust It babies” would tell me “Xilla if you want a red bone like mine you have to spoil them” I know it's not tricking if you got it, but I still can't see myself dropping thousands on a girl just because she has fair skin. After a while she wouldn't be with you for you, rather for your money. I also refuse to think that light skinned women are that shallow. I never tried this, but it seems to work for him, they've been together since college.
Drag Them
I was in court having a conversation with someone they called “Chain Gang Killa” when a light skinned court clerk walked into the room. It was like her body was custom made by God! Chain Gang Killa said “Yea she bad, but I can't stand those light skinned h*es” in a southern drawl, laced with venom that suddenly made me realize why they called him Killa. He started telling me how he would treat them like crap, by never calling them, never buying them a gift and even smacking them if they got out of line. I laughed thinking he was joking, until he mean mugged the court clerk so hard I thought her head was going to explode. I moved my seat once the conversation stalled.
After all these opinions I'm still not sure what the fascination is with red bones. All I know is that they are in every video, all the fashion shows and if there is a dark skinned beauty in the area the light skinned women outnumber them 3 to 1. I can't help but wonder if we live in a world full of Yung Bergs.
