Oh Euphoria, Bless your heart! LOOOL
Oh Bella@lool
Walaahi- oo bilaahi, I kid u not. This was a Hawiye family. I cant obviously use their names, but I can use their qabil without sounding bad--right? LOL True story!
PS By the way, the dark skin farah with kind eyes was ga ga inlove with me. The light skin farah was interested YES, but he wasn't showing obviously. He had a look of---oh soon she will be inlove with me, no need to sweat! Meanwhile, I was kinda left disturbed as to how Somali family behave. Thank God this Hawiye mother doesn't have a boy--she has daughters. LOL

I went to visit them when I graduated school, and the Hawiye mother was so impressed to see me, she was so loving and jovial. She invited me for lunch another day, and on that day -- she invited a few of her nephews to the lunch. One was light skin, I mean really light skin, lol and the other two were dark skinned. I sat next to one of the dark skin in the table, it was just where we were standing, so it was a matter of grab a chair and sit. The mother yells at the poor dark skin nephew to get up, and asks the light skin farah to sit next to me while looking at me with eyes of meaning. I was shocked. I thought it was kinda racist and rude, even though we are all Somalis. lol Sadly, or ironically, I liked the dark skinned one, because he had kind eyes. The light skin nephew was full of himself. He didn't even act gracious enough to refuse his aunt , he pushed his brother away and sat next to me. Now, the mother is the kindest little angel I know, her intentions were cute and automatic. I bet she wasn't even aware herself she was doing it. During the dinner, she kept on dropping hint that the light skin farah should show me around town, clearly living no doubt she loves him more or her intentions for us to be together. Later I told my mom this, and she lauged, ending with --oh Mrs Hebel hebel bless her heart. LOOOL
dead

Dark Skinned Somali girls tend to have amazing "Somali" features so this doesn't apply to us. A lot of Dark Skinned Somali girls actually though have the ideal phenotype in today's Eurocentric society much more than Light-Skinned Somali girls do in general....
Anyway African Americans much more than any other people have been both physically (historically speaking) and mentally enslaved, they were thought to hate who and what they are and they were stripped of any links & connections they had with their African ancestry. The physical has obviously long went away but the mental still to this day exists.

Somalis are colourstruck as AA. If anything the Somalis in the West are practicing selective breeding. If you are light skinned and have “good” hair you are winning for both sexes. A man with light skin and good hair can get any Somali women he wants without offering anything else but the ability to produce beautiful children; same applies to the women.
Here is the hierarchy
1 Light Skin Soft Hair
2 Light Skin Kinky Hair
3 Dark Skin Soft Hair
4 Dark Skin Kinky Hair
For example, a lot of women care about height. But Somali women would ignore height for the 1 man in the hierarchy.

Is she aesthetically pleasing? Are the hair, boobs and the whole package real? Is her height/weight (preferably over 5'08", weighs less than 140lbs) in line with my ideal woman? If so, I could care less about dark skin or light skin girl.
Underneath that burqa, naqab, jilbab, abaya she must look like this:
Not like this

I think I'm free to do as I please thank you very much! And yeah keep pretending Somalis don't have this issue and don't argue about "my qabil has more European features" "My qabil is more light skin".

If I think back when I last was deciding between two Somali girls, I had actually gone with the dark skin girl the last couple of times, and I was asked why I did this by my mates, I think Somali society prefers light skin girls over dark skin, I don't know the reason or if it is just a joke because I have never seen someone take it too seriously.
I guess whiles some somalis joke around with it, others take it to heart.
