this never gets old....i would like to see this experiment done across the nation at various income levels, across all ethnicities....
ReplyDeletei am interested in what caucasian, hispanic, asian, etc. children would say as well...
the biracial respondent was weird...
Yeah this is probably never going to go away. I blame Disney amongst other things, every bad is dark every thing good is light. We do the same thing as well. There are features that we prefer that doesn't naturally occur in African American women (Natural vs Relaxed Hair), I would say Hip Hop videos is our Disney, the wack women are usually big (which naturally occurs given our eating habits [fried chicken, sweet tea, etc] the fly joints are more Hispanic looking

ReplyDeletei'd like to see it also conducted across all demographics and also i'd like to vary the ethnicity and sex of the interrogater
ReplyDeleteYeah this was interesting. The response from the boys was intriguing, they said there is no difference in the attractiveness in the Black and White dolls.
