[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by MissJennifer: We all know what black is and what it looks like there is a tendency for poeple to want the so called 'black poeple' with the narrow features and fine textured hair to represent black poeple morso than the ones with the darkskin kinky hair and broad features like mine I just want to see a black queen that doesn't have 'good hair' a narrow nose and lightskin. I want to see one that is darkskin, with kinky hair, full lips, short nose. I want to see someone who looks like me. that is all. no point in arguing and trying to prove that black people with good hair and lightskin are black too. i didnt come here for that [/QB][/QUOTE]Many on this forum believe that narrow features of some of the Ethiopians, Somalians and so on, North East Africa, the horn are just as "black" as West African broad features. Many of these Africans have these features and at the same time are dark. African Americans are less familiar with East Africans. Others argue that narrow features are a result of mixture at some point with Arabs. Some argue that a narrow nose is an adapation to not only cold climate but also dry climate. Yet many Khosians of the Kalahari desert have broad noses. Is a narrow nose indigenous to Africa? I'm not sure about it. It seems to be an open question.

Some feel this is symbolic, others think some were in fact lighter than the men. [/QB][/QUOTE]
