Black women are considered attractive if they are of mixed race because of how we as black females are portrayed. We are often seen as unattractive because of our dark skin, naturally coarse hair and broad features, which may be considered by Anglo-Americans as not fitting the criteria of what is feminine as far as appearance goes. Usually when you see a biracial black woman, most of the time she has a good grade of hair, very soft and pretty to look at, with curls or waves, and she has longer, faster-growing hair, more European-like features and a lighter complexion. And that sums it up: those are the criteria white America says makes a beautiful female. As opposed to black women we’re seen as aggressive,unattractive,loud, and ignorant, and of course a little too dark. Furthermore, biracial black women could be seen as more passive or should I say less hostile as opposed to the stereotype of black women that I mentioned earlier. A woman the Bible may describe as a ‘gentle, quiet spirit.’ So that alone could make her seem more ‘desirable.’ As a society we have a hard time viewing black females as feminine and beautiful and if they are they must biracial. This reminds me of the whole slavery thing dark skin vs.light skin. Simple as that whomever appears more European is the beautiful one.Beautiful black women appear in all shades of hues,just look through Hype Hair or Ebony magazines.
