Define brown? Is it brown as in Indian, Latina etc?
I think generally speaking black women might be somewhat hostile to those women because generally speaking their men tend to lust after white or hispanic chicks. Non black women also tend to have real hair. According to what I once heard this is an issue in their community.
Are you speaking of darker skin Black women to lighter skin Black women or Hispanic women who are not actually brown skin. Maybe you are of India, so has a beautiful brown color. But Creole Queen identifies from my life experiences as a light skin Black woman.
What makes you think you're being silently judged? It could be admiration, curiosity, or anything other than what you may be thinking.
Do all Black women do this to you or certain ones / when you say Black women that is referring to all or the majority?
Then there is also the question did you or do you anything to deserve a stare, a look you considered rude? Trying to cover all areas.
we are all taught to not trust someone if they are different.. school should have taught the children to accept others of different race or religion.. now it is going back to the past again .. sorry i wish all could see that it is whats in the mind that counts and hot the skin or size or wealth . just my thought
TBH, this is why terms like "colored" and "people of color" don't make sense. The various non-white races and ethnicities all have different experiences, histories, cultures. They're not one people. Also, aren't we all colored? White is a color. A sexy color.
Men don't understand women. Women understand women and they don't like each other. Sadly the female of the species is very looks conscious. They wear makeup and get fancy hairdos and wear outlandish clothes that scream look at me. It is instinctive and part of that goes to judging other women on their looks be it skin tone or the shape of the nose or the length and colour of the hair. Not much can be done about it except to realise that it is common to the human species and try to avoid doing it yourself as much as possible.
