Colored contacts - How do you feel about them?

@eanaj5...I'll take that.

But she did say "how do you feel...".

Recently there was a thread about a black woman getting fired from her job as a waitress because they felt her blonde highlights were unacceptable for a black woman.

Then here comes Junkyard, on the world wide web, boastfully calling "dark skinned women with contacts" ugly and stating they shouldn't wear them.

So should every black woman in the world lose her job because she has a beauty enhancement? Colored hair, contacts, or anything else for that matter.

Should they feel ugly and ashamed for something they feel makes them more attractive?

No...no they should not.

woah!

I think her point is that the reason they feel more attractive is because they are wearing white ppl colored eyes and this is wrong because they clearly look like the are of African descent...  So I THINK in her eyes yes they should be ashamed cause they only reason they want that look is to look white, aint no way a black person could have natural light eyes

It's like certain black ppl expect us to walk around with not a lick of clothes, relaxer... nothing that might have a European influence   LOL, I'm not interested in "doing well" on BHM, though. This isn't a college class. This isn't my work and I'm not supposed to hand in a paper at the end of the year. And I never said anything along the lines of can't wear makeup/red lipstick and only walking around completely bare. What I said is that people need to pick colours that suit their complexion and undertones. The same way you choose a foundation.

Girl that is not what you said at first, stop it.  And no you didn't say that but everything in your O.P.  is the same as what Asap Rocky said women getting fired for blond in their hair,  when a black women walks into an expensive shop and gets that look.. It all fit together, Black (dark skinned) women and men for that matter shouldn't venture out because you only look right with that dark hair, dark eye combo.  

I HATE this thinking, this is the reason why so many black women are afraid to wear bright dresses.  My cousin won't dare go to  a club in anything but a black dress because in her head colors don't look good. 

Ya'll have to admit some of that ish look ridic even on lighter colored black women.
