Exactly! Like there are always so many comments from fiat 500 twitter saying stuff like 'what white girls can't tan now' and its like no ffs nobody is saying that! Like how people have major cognitive dissonance around black fishing is beyond me. The issue is cherry picking aspects of black culture on top of excessive tanning like wearing braids, the baby hairs, afro hairstyles, using AAVE, adopting a blaccent... etc the list goes on!
Quite a lot of these young girls don't seem to register that getting lip fillers, BBLs, doing booty only workouts - thats another case of cherry picking and emulating black features. It angers me sooo much that black women get shitted on, discriminated against for being black and proud of their culture, and then out hops some wealthy white influencer being praised and applauded for their "original style". Nothing original about wearing and capitalising someone else's culture that has nothing to do with you.
The Bopo/Plus size models aren't immune from this either. In fact so many hyper sexualise black men, using them like a trophy to elevate their social status, seems like having a black boyfriend for a lot of white plus size models/influencers is a right of passage...
Side note: I have no issues towards folks in interracial partnerships, It just gives me the major ick when a lot of these white women refuse to even make a stand about racism, and the most minimal action they usually do, is make a generic ' be kind we're all human ' statement when pressed on the subject.
