Why is this?

Question

It's the same with every girl i know- I could go to a party and see all these asian white brown girls and not feel threatened- and then when i see another black girl walk into the room i compare myself to her- my friend and I were talking about this-
I could go to the mall..and see a pack of black girls and we would stare eachother down- My friend could be with me and feel comfortable - but when another asian girl arrives...she goes hmph rolls her eyes and says w/e-

& why is it an insult if someone says you have a body like a white girl- and if someone says you have a body like black girl it's a compliment
& if someone says you looked mixed it's a compliment- & when someone says you don't it's just like :|

:\

I don't wish to look mixed - most girls I know want to-

Answer 1

I don't have an answer for the first part of your question.

But as for the second part, I think some people take it as an insult when they are told they have a body like a white girl because maybe they associate that with being a "stick". And they take it as a compliment when told they look like a black girl because historically, black women have been praised for their curves and voluptuousness. Maybe when someone says you looked mixed (I am mixed- dad is black and mom is white) it is taken as a comment because you have great skin tone with just the right amount of curves. People often envy mixed people's hair too- although I haven't figured that out yet, I hate mine! LOL
