This is a letter to dark skin girls.

 Israel.Ysrayl, a Jim Crow restroom sign.
Just to put this issue in an absolute perspective.
I'm writing this after seeing a back and forth debate on Tumblr about black girls and colorism. Dark girls expressed their experiences, light girls expressed their experiences, and both experiences were weighed and measured and categorized. Some people put one problem over another while others put both problems on the same level.

I'm writing this because I believe my experiences have given me a pretty clear view of this issue.

I'll begin this, as always, with a disclaimer.

This is about subtweeting and the diversity of Disney Princess.

I couln't not say anything...
This post is being written in an effort not to subtweet someone.

I hate the concept of subtweeting. I think its really ridiculous and often starts more drama than if the person was confronted directly.

However, sometimes you have to choose your battles. I could have went in on level 10 but it was 8-something in the morning and I really didn't have the energy to summarize all my refuting points into 140 characters.

This tweet addresses the issue of majority groups speaking for minority groups.

This is about how stupid I think Nutella is and other stuff.

I've officially had enough of your nutella.

I don't want nutella on my toast.
I don't want nutella on my fruit.
I don't want nutella in my drinks.

Why do you love nutella so much? Like SO MUCH?

Nothing is that healthy if you eat it all the freakin time!

"Oh! I'm such a fatty eating nutella and fruit!"

This is for the girl with the staring problem.

Look at this b****. Goodness.
Dear Girl With The Staring Problem by M.A.B
Dear girl with the staring problem,
Why look this way?
It's as if you're reacting to words I didn't even say
Is there something wrong with your eyes?
Or are you just doing what Tyra says and practicing your smize?
I can't help but return a look equally as disgusted
Words are running through my head like 'this girl think I look busted'
