Why Are Darker Skinned Black Men Viewed As More Masculine Than Lighter Skin Black Men In Pop Culture?

I think darker skinned black men are viewed as more masculine, attractive, and as real black men.

In pop culture, lighter skinned black men are not given the same amount of respect in the black community.

I know some people think Kanye West is a jackass, but the guy is still hot! I love Usher  too! I must say I can’t believe Denzel Washington is fifty five years old he doesn’t look fifty five! Denzel is hot!

I must admit, I tend to be more attracted to darker skinned black men that are my skin tone or darker. I don’t know why? Is it because lighter skinned black men are viewed in pop culture as effeminiate and not masculine? Are these just stereotypes projected on to  lighter skinned black men?

I just love darker skinned black men but I think some light skinned guys are good looking as well. I remember this  dark skinned African guy I saw on the TTC bus one day, I almost passed out he was so fine!

Anyway, I think there are  some good looking liked skinned men in this world. I am curious what do you think?  I am cognizant that Dwayne Johnson, Wentworth Miller, Corbin Bleu, Terrance Howard, and Lenny Kravitz are  mixed race but they do have black heritage. All these men are absolutely gorgeous!

Roger Federer Wins The Australian Open, the ESPN.COM tennis experts are xenophobic racist idiots!!

Roger Federer of Switzerland blasted past Andy Murray of the United Kingdom 6-3 6-4 7-6 to win his fourth Australian Open title. Federer now has sixteen grand slam singles titles in his illustrious career.

However, the stupid tennis experts at ESPN.COM did not pick Roger or Serena Williams to win the Australian Open. Federer is the best player of his generation for a reason, he has incredible consistency. Federer has reached twenty two grand slam finals and he’s won most of them.

Rafael Nadal is the only player that is Federer’s rival. It is not Roger’s fault that Rafael  is not playing at his best at the moment.

The problem for Rafael is the fact his body is breaking down and he is only twenty three years old. Nadal needs to slow down, play less events, and allow his body to heal from the chronic knee injuries. Nadal needs to listen to his body and take care of himself.

The media need to stop hyping Andy Murray and make excuses for him. Murray just doesn’t have the firepower necessary to beat the Federer in a grand slam. I also want to point out, Murray is the only player in the top five to not win a grand slam. Murray is 0-2 in grand slam singles finals both times he lost to Federer in straight sets.

Wow the ESPN.COM editors are so dumb, why would anyone pick Andy Roddick to win a grand slam? Roddick hasn’t won a major since the 2003 US Open that’s almost seven years ago.

The hatred ESPN.COM has for Serena Williams is not only illogical it is just abhorrent. The ESPN.COM editors did not want Serena Williams to win the Australian Open despite the fact she is an American. I have to point out ESPN.COM is an American website. Serena Williams is a consistent grand slam singles champion and Andy Roddick is a one slam wonder.

The reason ESPN.COM editors chose Roddick over Serena is because Roddick is viewed as a “real American” because he is a white. Roddick’s results in the grand slams demonstrate is in the second tier behind Federer and Nadal. The only way Roddick will win a grand slam is when Roger and Rafael lose early. I just cannot see Roddick winning a slam without Roger and Rafael losing early that will be his only chance to win another major.

However, ESPN.COM picked the Belgians Justine Henin and Kim Clijsters to win the Australian Open women’s event. No one at ESPN.COM picked Serena Williams even though she is the most mentally tough female tennis player of her generation.

Serena is the best because of her mind, her serve, and her return. Serena’s mind is her greatest asset, she refuses to lose. Serena also has the best serve in women’s tennis history of women’s tennis. The serve is the most important shot it is a shot a tennis player has control over. Justine Henin is a great champion but her serve was a liability in the final.

Serena Williams is a legend and she deserves respect from the American media. The USA media take Serena Williams for granted this is disappointing. It is pathetic that ESPN.COM hates Serena just because she is a black female tennis champion and not white.

The ESPN.COM tennis writers hate Roger Federer because he is the best male tennis player of his generation. The ESPN.COM editors resent the fact that since Rafael Nadal is injured Federer is winning all the grand slams. It is not Roger’s fault that he is healthy, picks his events carefully, and takes time off to heal his body. The  anti Roger Federer attitude at ESPN is ludicrous! Too bad for ESPN.COM!  Congratulations to Roger Federer and Serena Williams the Australian Open champions!!
