I'm trying to understand the facination with lighter skin/long hair to begin with. I'm not what you would call dark by any means. But I use makeup that is actually a shade darker than my on complexion as it gives me a more exotic/indian complexion. I've never liked or understood why most like "pale *** ghost white skin" in our culture. Most had a fit when I cut my hair, but I don't need it to feel/be beautiful. I actually get more compliments with it shorter. Hubby was against me cutting it at first. But after I had done it he loves, loves it with the layered style I have. It rests just above my shoulders.

But if lighter skin could get/keep a man - Halle Berry, Vanessa Williams, and the likes wouldn't be 0-2 on the marriage scene.
