    Shit, never thought about how the skin test could affect a mixed person. 🤔 Thanks for the comment.
    I assumed the Ally tests were more thorough and harder to trick, but never looked into it.

    Yeah~ I don’t doubt anything you’re saying. I’m visibly a brotha and “dark-skinned” (actually medium brown back home, but whatevs), so I was spared that shit. Definitely got some other shit, but 'eh. 😅

    I will never be black enough or white enough or Latino enough.

    Reminding me of (iirc) a Hispanic-American dude who explained a similar situation due to skin tone. As I recall it, he was “too light for the Black kids and too dark for the White kids,” so he had nowhere to go growing up. Nobody wanted him at their table. 😐
    Also, dat’s fucked. Since we can’t spoiler tag text, I’mma just speak my unsolicited opinion on it: You’re racially all three and culturally which ever ones you identify with. How society treats you is a different matter.

    You’d probably benefit from F.D Signifier’s “I need a break so here’s me reacting to Tik Toks” (timestamped) video and its many~ comments. Nebula version.
    Also, here’s his Black Men and Colorism on Screen video. Nebula version. Haven’t watched it yet myself, but chances are it’ll be… relevant atleast.

    Now go back and suggest that there isn’t a “good” or “bad” way to draw women

    I mean… “bad anatomy” posts were common. So were “where’s her spine?” comments. In this context, the issue was unrealistic realism for women but not for men. I’ll give an example that comes to mind. At one point (maybe last year), One Piece got dunked on for how the vast majority of its women were drawn. And the fans’ defense? (the post was brought up in r/OnePiece, so people were discussing it) “The men are unrealistic too. Most guys don’t look like that!”
    Before anyone starts, ask yourself what the difference between physique and body-ody is. Before y’all miss the point, were the male and female characters designed the way the were for everyone’s enjoyment or for a single demographic’s?

    As for the both sides of it, when it comes to viewers who’re children, there most definitely is a “bad” way to draw people in general. Friendly reminder that people getting the wrong idea about their genitals from pornographic media is common… for both sexes.
    inb4 definition of “children” 🙄

    and that being horny doesn’t make you a bad artist or a bad person, and see how that plays out. I bet you’ll get banned, or at the very least downvoted into oblivion.

    I’m not gonna bother countering this.
    As for the rest of your comment, you’ve got points.

    r/PublicFreakout’s constant unrestrained 'isms, especially towards trans, women, and African descended. I only was subbed for the occassional interesting post and to call out the bs for those who couldn’t see it.

    r/JustUnsubbed’s (iirc) noticeable political shift towards (i’mma say it; cover your eyes, children!) the Right after the recent situation with the game that shall not be named and she who shall not be named. Also, see above.

    People shitting on and lying about subs specifically made for marginalized groups. e.g.: When r/BlackPeopleTwitter was blessed by Black Jesus with his “Country Club Thread” flair, people elsewhere started calling them racist and supported their claims by over exaggerating the filtration system as “only Blacks allowed” when there was a whole-ass stickied post explaining that people just needed to claim to be Black, BIPOC, or an Ally and prove it by whatever means the mods dictated. My Afro-ass asked if I could just get the Ally userflair and was told (privately and kindly) that, and I’m going off memory here, “Just like we don’t allow Blackface we don’t allow Whiteface.” 🤷🏿‍♂️

    Could probably go on, but I’m busy. ✌🏿
