I took the skin preference test which tests if you have a bias towards light-skinned or dark-skinned people. I thought that mine would be biased towards dark-skinned people since I consider myself to be dark and I prefer dark- skin aesthetically. However, my results say that I have a slight automatic preference for Light Skinned People over Dark Skinned People.
That’s very interesting to me that your results came out to be that. As a dark-skinned person myself, I would also assume that going into the test I would biased in choosing dark-skin. Because I am a little curious, I’ll have to go try this test and see if my results came out to be the same as yours or not.
This is very interesting to me. The reason why I think this might be the case is because media constantly feeds up what the beauty of white people looks like. Magazines constantly show the stereotypical look for beauty is long straight hair, lighter colored skin, and thinness.
