i hope this won't annoy anybody. i want to say i feel happy and lucky being black because it means i don't blush Very Happy

however i have something bad else which is excessive sweating (or HH) Sad

, it embarrasses me but certainly blushing is worse and more noticeable. i have a question to u guys, if u were able to choose would u rather being balck or not? Laughing

Well Sensitive, I never really wished I was born Black...That may be because I am Black (lol). Being and African American female def has its pros and cons. But I don't think it necessarily makes dealing with SA/SP any easier, you know.

I think blushing is cute but then I don't have a problem with it Confused

If you're going to get a wish to help with blushing I imagine I would rather wish I didn't blush so much rather than wish I could change my race lol. Sorry I guess that's a bit of a cop out Razz

blushing is in no way cute! i suffer from extreme blushing and it almost looks like i have some kind of disease. i become all blotchy not just my face but my whole upper body and it's raised also, so please whoever said blushing was cute it is far from it. I have managed to suppress it slightly from relaxation techniques but now and again i have to hide away and find a quiet place before it settles down, regular excercise and sunbeds do help also

CAn't say I ever wished I was born any other race, but I have thought about that, and do envy that you don't notice black people blushing. The other day at work, there's a raised section in the middle of the newsroom where I was standing trying to get the assignment editors attention, but he was ignoring me and I was talking quite loud (especially for me) and it caught everyone's attention, which was really embarrasing, and I started to really stress, then the entertainment reported walked by (who happens to be black) and said "you're looking really tanned" but I didn't understand what she meant cause I'm slow like that, so I said "Tanned?" and she said really loud "you're red. I was trying to be nice." And I thought the polite thing to do would be not to point it out. I left tat area in quite a hurry.

dont know if i want to be black. i sometimes wish i was anglo so i can fit in with the majority. iam always seeing the racial segregation that exists in this world and in Australia, and although i know 99% of people are good, it makes me hell depressed that i feel this way.
its makes my SA even worse too.

i am glad there are some people still replying and interacting with this topic. it would be better if said darkskinned rather than black. see at latin chicks, oh god they are so hot Razz

. u can be darkskinned or black and goodlooking at the same time.
