Typically in comparison of. You cannot deny that African's from Africa or even those from the diaspora typically have wider noses than those from other areas of the world. You also cannot deny that East Asian's tend to have smaller and slantier eyes than their bretheren from other parts of the world such as Europe, or…

Not at all. No culture except the most remote exists in a vacuum. The fact is Western Europe, by whatever historical factors has achieved a certain level or world prominence, so their perspective is often taken as the dominant perspective or viewpoint.

Re-read his post where he discusses , one thing being a fluke and then wanting a whole bunch of Caucasian phenotype signifiers = a pattern, that when taken together indicate someone wishing to identify or personify another (more Caucasian phenotype)

Japanese school picture:

Not white, majored in psychology and sociology. Took a lot of classes on multyiculturalism, and ethinicity. No I am not an expert, but we did talk a lot about how the imperialism and hegemony of western Europe affected other non western European cultures, particularly in areas of custom and self image.

Small is NOT long thin. it is small but still flat without the same sharp bridge:

Nope, just shorthand for their motivation is suspiciously like self shame for their person of color phenotype whether it be Asian, black, middle eastern or indio/south american

what is most interesting is that if you were to post a group picture of east asians, lets say a class photo taken from a korean school, or from a chinese school, you would see the flat noses and smaller eyes reflected in the majority of the faces. Posting one exceptional picture to indicate your point and labeling it…

Bullshit buddy and you know it. Just scroll through the threads and see pictures of every type of WOC blacks, Asians, And middle easterners. We are discussing WOC getting rid of features that are both contextually and historically ingrained signifiers of their ethnicity, regardless of whether its black or asian or…

Nope, read the threads before you troll. We were talking about the features of BOTH, african americans and asians. Your trope about how blacks get angry about asian matters is your own racism and hate against blacks.

Absolutely, which is what I was saying about east asians and eyelid surgery, lets just face it, phenotypically percentage wise, rounder larger eyes are not something people readily associate with the illogic yet historically ingrained phenotype of what one considers an east asian ethnic phenotype.

nope. Going by percentages alone, you'd find more African Americans with round or broad noses than those with thin longer noses, same goes with east Asian s and the smaller eyes with hepcanthic (sp) folds.

Heh, I dont know about the Latina butts or Black thighs. Although we may praise some of our stars as being sexy when they have them, we are yet to see these universally accepted. Our leading romantic movie heroines=very discernably Caucasian looking. Most of our cover models, are the same. Jlo and Beyonce are tongue…

this is problematic, when one of the historically defining features of east Asians to outsiders IS their eyes. Having this surgery to change something so quintessentially defining of an ethnic group, is suspect, the same way a black person lengthening the bridge of their nose is suspect. Most African Americans even…

No one is shitting on Emma. People seem to be shitting on Jezebel' s decision.

I am crying at this. It is the song and life story of every Black woman

I have a word that encompasses all of these Selfies/relfies etc. It's called NARCISSISM

Thanks. Responsible replies at last

Bullshit. Many mental health professionals would disagree. Many people who do commit suicide talk about it extensively before they do it.

OMG. Emmy award. Her performance as Vee was nuanced and amazing. The fact that her body looks that good in her 50's is just an added bonus. Ms. Toussaint your body and your acting chops are superior to many in hollywood.
