You guys know I have an ongoing love affair with beautiful dark skinned women.
Kenya is (was) quite high on my list. Naomi is somewhere in the middle. I always thought they had the most beautiful eyes. So you could imagine my dismay to find out that they both wear colored contacts.
A big reason I love these women is because of their unapologetic pride in their own skin, heritage and natural beauty. I thought GODya and 'omi were better than the whole 1998 colored contact mess. Still love them but for some reason I'm so disappointed. I feel as if these types of "add-ons" say that our natural God given beauty isn't enough.
This is better,
this is prettier.
You don't see white women going around changing their icy blue eyes or green eyes to brown. But mess. I still love them, but it's tainted.
Ignorance is truly bliss.
