Why do people think that only White poeple can have keen features or assume that the Black person has European heritage?

I have never said it or heard of it.But I will say this, sounds as if you have a chip on your shoulder. Why not let go of it and start living a life.

I don't know sweetie! But don't sweat the madness! Everyone can't have the same entire features. Most likely they're just jealous. I have a cute pug nose with wide beautiful eyes, thick lips and long wavy read hair and I'm the bomb OK? I really don't care what people think about me. As long as I have a wonderful personality and I'm cute to match (I'm I vain or what? LOL) I really don't give 2 cents about what people think of me. So if you're handsome or non-handsome and you have a great personality and a good heart, that's all that matter! As we say where I live........."Damn the madness!"

stable question. For that remember, why is it outrageous whilst a white individual calls a black individual the N-be conscious yet no longer whilst a black individual calls yet another black individual the N-be conscious? If it particularly is this type of racially offensive term - which it is - then how come they only care whilst a individual who's the "incorrect shade" makes use of it? seems kinda, I dunno, racist maybe? There are all varieties of double standards like that nevertheless. gay people can say all varieties of issues approximately promptly people and no-one particularly cares. yet as quickly as a promptly individual says something against a gay individual, whether it particularly is a valid criticism, unexpectedly they're homophobic, they're a bigot, they're a hater, and so on. Or a non-non secular individual can say that they do no longer think of something is stable, and no-one minds, yet whilst a Christian says a similar element, unexpectedly they're accused of being self-righteous and illiberal and judgmental. I hate double standards. the two a behaviour is stable and ideal, or it particularly is incorrect. it particularly is no longer authentic for one demographic and incorrect for yet another. it particularly is no longer how authentic and incorrect artwork.

I guess it's because stereotypically Black people do have broader noses and fuller lips and stereotypically White people have more straighter noses and thinner lips. There are always exceptions though, there are many people in West and East African that have several different types of features. A lot have a range of different features, but most people love to stereotype and put a lable on everything.

Its not to do with keen features and ugly ones. There are certain genetic traits that are predominant in whites and not commom in blacks.

Whats looks good to one person isnt attractive to comeone else. so when you say keen features are the ones attributed to whites then thats just your opinion. There are many traits predominant in Blacks that people find attractive. its just subjective.

People are simply ignorant of the wide diversity of physical features that exist within these artificially demarcated groups. The appearance of Ethiopians and Nigerians and Sudanese are quite different, in general, just like the appearance of Germans, Italians, and Swedes are different.

People have been taught that black people don't vary from person to person. In reality, we are as different from each other as white people and we don't all look the same. If other people want to be ignorant, don't worry about them.

I would admit that I find black women with caucasian features more attractive. Yet I don't care for a pasty skin tone.

If you look at an archetypical black person, they will have broad, flat features. Whereas Europeans have a reputation for being pointier.

I don't think that and I'm white. You really shouldn't generalize. Not everyone feels that way.
